00:00 rangi      ghent isnt that far from marseille
00:00 rangi      (in the scheme of things hehe)
00:00 eythian    MARC converts to JSON and embeds some JSON-MARC (to coin a standard), which then gets converted back to MARC on searching for display
00:00 eythian    this is mostly so it fits in with the existing framework.
00:01 tcohen     does catmandu provide the bridge back to Koha from ES?
00:01 eythian    I think less so
00:01 eythian    can't remember if we use it at all for that or not
00:01 tcohen     i'll be back to argentina by 9th?
00:01 rangi      ah bummer
00:02 rangi      we dont currently
00:02 rangi      currently we are doing the same workflow as with zebra, export index, search, get full record from database
00:02 rangi      however
00:03 rangi      as elasticsearch hands back json .. we could switch to quite a different search/display in the next phase
00:03 rangi      even something like using angularjs to display results .. ajax search
00:04 tcohen     yeah, was just thinking about that
00:04 rangi      but for now, we want something that works pretty much the same as zebra
00:04 rangi      so we can test it
00:04 rangi      and then we can move forward
00:04 rangi      if that makes sense?
00:04 tcohen     it makes alot of sense
00:04 tcohen     the only problem might be policy
00:04 tcohen     about what to show/hide
00:05 rangi      *nod*
00:05 tcohen     that might put Koha in the middlle
00:05 eythian    also working this way it's possible to switch out implementations fairly cleanly
00:05 rangi      or make that be an index
00:05 rangi      theres options :)
00:06 eythian    for policy you'd put a filter in
00:06 rangi      its a shame we cant make it to the hackfest
00:06 eythian    so you'd have "and somethingsomething must-not equal 1", and the query would work within the results of that.
00:06 eythian    (OpacSupression currently not implemented, as it's done in a really bad way in zebra.)
00:07 tcohen     eythian: i was thinking about the frameworks
00:07 tcohen     and per-branch authorized va
00:07 tcohen     lues
00:07 eythian    oh, well right now what works just like zebra I think
00:07 eythian    i.e. it's all done after the fact.
00:08 rangi      yep, thats a in the future thing
00:08 rangi      /svc/authorised_values/ccode/FISH
00:08 rangi      etc
00:08 rangi      that would be a super simple service to write :)
00:08 dcook      tcohen: I was thinking about that a bit even with Zebra... I think the frameworks might need to be refined some more?
00:08 rangi      maybe ill save that for next students
00:09 dcook      As sometimes you'll want to export the full record and sometimes you don't...
00:09 rangi      an authorised values service
00:09 rangi      for opac and staff
00:13 tcohen     dcook: don't know what are you talking about
00:14 tcohen     eythian: for some stuff we should be doing some stuff on indexing-time
00:14 tcohen     rangi: I agree
00:14 dcook      tcohen: Oh well, it probably doesn't matter.
00:15 * dcook    got cooked this morning by a server
00:15 dcook      A/C didn't turn on due to a bad hub... so my brain might still be scrambled
00:15 dcook      Or is it poached?
00:16 tcohen     dcook: my condolencies
00:16 dcook      thanks ;)
00:16 tcohen     (for the server)
00:24 wizzyrea   poaching is a pretty gentle cooking method.
00:25 wizzyrea   was there warm-ish oil or water involved? because otherwise you're baked or broiled #cookingpedant
00:27 wizzyrea   oh. I should check master but I think if you don't want opaccustomsearch to nuke your search box even if empty, you have to enter "NULL" in it
00:27 wizzyrea   just leaving that here.
00:27 wizzyrea   for no real good reason except "ugh annoy"
00:30 tcohen     wizzyrea: fill a bug? please :-D
00:31 wizzyrea   yeah probably will do once I've checked that actually happens on master :)
00:31 wizzyrea   unless you just did and can confirm  (which btw I'm not asking you to)
00:38 dcook      opaccustomsearch?
00:38 dcook      Yeah, probably baked
00:39 eythian    rats
00:40 eythian    I wanted to know what tcohen thought we should be doing at indexing time
00:51 wizzyrea   it probably had something to do with unicorn giraffes.
00:51 wizzyrea   yes, I do get a little more random every day.
00:52 eythian    no, that was quite deterministic. Also, they're not giraffes, they're long horses.
00:52 wizzyrea   hehehe

02:01 jcamins    cait?
02:01 wahanui    somebody said cait was happy about some example opacs :)
02:01 jcamins    cait?
02:01 wahanui    i think cait is regretting a bit that we didn't offer this as an option first... or on a test system for people to see
02:01 jcamins    cait?
02:01 wahanui    cait is lookign forward to the API discussion
02:01 jcamins    cait?
02:01 wahanui    somebody said cait was very pale, and needs lots of sun lotion.
02:01 jcamins    cait?
02:01 wahanui    i guess cait is from germany. Ask me about germany.
02:01 jcamins    cait?
02:01 wahanui    cait is very pale, and needs lots of sun lotion.
02:03 eythian    look what you did jcamins
02:19 dcook      hehe
02:19 dcook      "activate berr reporting"
02:19 dcook      I read that as "activate beer reporting"
02:19 * dcook    was rather happy for a second there
04:29 dcook      Hmm, I didn't know that "sort" had a "-h" switch
04:29 dcook      That's rad

08:17 drojf      hi #koha
08:39 magnuse    moin drojf
08:40 drojf      hei magnuse
09:08 magnuse    bonjour paul_p
09:09 magnuse    just 2 weeks now... :-)
09:28 * ashimema is seeing delays on his passport renewal.. that puts Marseilles in jeopardy for him :(
09:29 Joubu      ashimema: that's not a good news!
09:30 ashimema   no.. it's rather annoying..
09:30 ashimema   I'm wondering if it doesn't come through in time how I can partake remotely.
09:34 magnuse    ashimema: can't you get a temporary passport?
09:35 * magnuse  has been to marseille 3 times without showing a passport
09:37 Joubu      magnuse: UK is not in the schengen area...
09:37 ashimema   what Joubu said
09:38 ashimema   we don't have ID cards in the UK so we need a passport even for europe.. I could wing it on a ferry, but flights tend to be allot more strict in my experience.
09:38 ashimema   can't believe I forgot it needed renewing.. 10 years is a long gap between renewals I suppose
09:40 drojf      what about the temporary passport option magnuse proposed? it's common in germany too.
09:40 drojf      i had to do it once when they found my passport was out of date while i tried to leave the country :/
09:41 magnuse    ah, guess being outside schengen changes things, yeah
09:41 magnuse    fun fun fun
09:41 magnuse    yay me - first signoff of the year (waaay too late, i know)
09:43 drojf      there should be some kind of video conferencing at the hackfest anyway ^^
09:46 ashimema   indeed
10:06 magnuse    we should try and make it a week of intense qa work for everyone involved, not just the ones that can go to marseille, in my opinion
10:06 magnuse    hiya irma
10:07 irma       Bonjour/bonsoir magnuse :-)
10:08 irma       magnuse Is Marseilles on your agenda this year?
10:08 magnuse    irma: yes it is!
10:08 magnuse    really starting to look forward to it now
10:08 irma       Quelle chance!
10:08 irma       magnuse your French must be improving  too ...
10:08 magnuse    lol
10:09 magnuse    from 0.0 to 0.00001
10:09 irma       version control? ah ... version progress ...nice and steady, I see :-)
10:09 magnuse    yeah
10:10 magnuse    i have survived
10:10 irma       We were in Europe in December so can't make it back to the old continent in March $$
10:10 magnuse    managed to buy food, groceries, pain au chocolate...
10:10 magnuse    oh, and you didn't drop by me? :-(
10:10 magnuse    ;-)
10:11 irma       :-( tried but hum ... missed the train heading north from Frankfurt
10:12 magnuse    oh noes :-)
10:13 drojf      don't know if it is an option for people in marseille but i have a webinar server that could use some testing. it's not capable of hosting a gazillion clients, but i suppose it would work for streaming talks to a few people in here that want to take part
10:15 ashimema   :)
10:21 Joubu      Cheeses cannot be tasted/smelt by streaming...
10:22 drojf      Joubu: i'm very thankful for that :D
10:41 magnuse    cheese!
10:41 wahanui    hmmm... cheese is delicious, but cait just had butter.
10:48 drojf      magnuse: you can have it all :)
10:50 cait       hi #koha
10:52 magnuse    thanks drojf :-)
10:52 magnuse    kia ora cait
10:54 magnuse    every time i say "kia ora" i am reminded of the roadtrip from bucklame to wellington - happy times!
10:54 cait       yep :)
10:55 cait       it was great
11:12 cait       cya #koha

13:29 vtk        i am trying to convert excel data into marc but for one title if multiple items are there those many bibliographic records are generated. What is required to attach all items in one bibliographic record while mapping data from excel in deliminted text wizard
13:40 magnuse    vtk: which tool are you using? marcedit?
13:40 magnuse    the trick is that you need to have one 952-field per item
13:44 vtk        i wish to know in my excel sheet for the same title if i have more than one barcode where should that barcode be in my excel sheet
13:45 vtk        and it should be mapped how while using in delimited text wizard
13:53 magnuse    vtk: what do you mean by "delimited text wizard"?
13:54 vtk        sorry delimited text converter
14:11 magnuse    vtk: is that a thing in marcedit or something else?
14:12 vtk        yes in marcedit Delimited Text
14:12 vtk        where we can add source file as excel file
14:13 vtk        and then map each column to marc tag and convert that excel data to marc file
14:17 drojf      that is probably a question for something like a marcedit forum. i don't think people here use it much
14:18 vtk        oh ok
14:18 drojf      there seems to be a mailing list for marcedit marcedit.reeset.net/help
14:19 drojf      http://marcedit.reeset.net/help
14:20 vtk        ok tx
14:20 vtk        also one more query i have abt publisher authority
14:21 vtk        when i try to add publisher in authority in which tag nos in authority i should enter name of publisher, place and address of publisher
14:21 drojf      getting something to eat, later #koha
14:35 ashimema_  question.. where does robots.txt live in packages?

15:02 ashimema_  but thanks anyways :)
15:02 magnuse    so did "locate robots.txt" :-)

22:33 dcook      eythian: What's the intensive part of using ElasticSearch?
22:33 dcook      Perl dependencies?
22:33 * dcook    is pondering how it might work in a non-Debian based system
22:33 eythian    what do you mean by intensive?
22:33 dcook      Good question
22:33 dcook      You mentioned how you couldn't really install it on any current stable systems, yeah?
22:33 dcook      That it would only work on Jessie and maybe a newer Ubuntu?
22:33 dcook      Well, not ES, but the Catmandu stuff
22:34 eythian    oh yeah
22:34 eythian    the dependencies are complicated and it's dealing with quite new libraries.
22:34 eythian    I did get it going on the non-LTS current ubuntu
22:34 eythian    but, jessie will be a lot easier in general
22:35 dcook      Might be good incentive to move over to Debian, I suppose..
22:36 eythian    yeah. You could probably get them all with cpan without too much difficulty, but I prefer having OS packages.
22:36 dcook      Yeah, I like OS packages too
22:37 dcook      There was something I had to package the other day...
22:37 dcook      Oh, it was for a local customization
22:38 dcook      I suppose I could've used CPAN for that, but... I figure there's more control packaging it yourself as well
22:38 dcook      Or if a new version does come up in the Debian repo..
22:38 dcook      Or could upstream it, or...
22:40 eythian    I think I lost track of what you were saying half way through :)
22:43 dcook      I certainly would have
22:43 dcook      Maybe I did
22:43 dcook      It's warm in here
22:44 cait       is your brain still broiled?
22:44 cait       sorry, read back in the logs erarlier :)
22:44 dcook      I think so!
22:44 cait       ineresting cooking discussion :)
22:44 dcook      You must be reading a lot of logs!
22:44 cait       mine is frozen
22:44 cait       or what do you call what happens to frozen food?
22:45 cait       nah, not regularly
22:49 cait       wizzyrea: around?
22:50 eythian    cait: I think she's lunching
22:51 dcook      I am so confused
22:51 dcook      Oh, your brain
22:51 dcook      I thought you meant your logs were frozen
22:51 dcook      Yes, my brain must be broiled... or boiled... or baked...
22:52 * dcook    just had breakfast and is so ready for lunch now
22:52 cait       eythian: ah too bad
22:53 cait       someone else can explain the difference between holds to pull and holds queue for a single banch library?
22:53 cait       hm i think i see it
22:54 cait       or no, still confused:)
23:00 cait       hm and the paging on the holds to pull one is broken
23:00 * cait     will file a bug later
23:02 eythian    I think it's always been confusing.
23:02 eythian    It really needs some clarification, better naming, whatever.
23:03 cait       some style work too
23:04 eythian    well, probably a redesign so that they have the same UI but more clarity about the difference between them, or something along those lines.
23:11 dcook      Holds to pull is for materials that need to be pulled and held aside for patrons
23:11 dcook      Holds queue...
23:11 wahanui    i think holds queue is to do with that table
23:11 dcook      No idea
23:12 dcook      It might list all holds?
23:12 dcook      Even ones that aren't ready to pull?
23:13 dcook      I suppose a minute or two and I might be able to tell you..
23:13 dcook      Hmm, I'm definitely wrong about that
23:14 dcook      "Holds queue: This report will show you all of the holds at your library."
23:14 dcook      :S
23:19 dcook      cait: holds queue shows what's in `tmp_holdsqueue`
23:19 dcook      Which depends on C4::HoldsQueue::CreateQueue
23:19 dcook      Which...
23:19 wahanui    it has been said that which is why it is strange that it BROKE... after upgrading like that.
23:20 dcook      Seems like a rather convoluted process
23:21 cait       heh
23:21 cait       i am wondering if there is a main difference if you are a single branch...
23:22 cait       i think the built one is more if there are multiple items that could fill the hold in multiple branches?
23:22 cait       helping to pick the library that has to?
23:26 dcook      Mmm
23:28 dcook      There may be no purpose for a single branch?
23:30 dcook      I'm looking at a multibranch library..
23:30 dcook      Hmm, it seems right according to Koha, but it looks weird..
23:31 dcook      Dunno, other things to do, alas
23:38 cait       thx :)
23:38 cait       time here to sleep n- night all
23:50 wizzyrea   gah, cait are you still here?
23:50 wizzyrea   cuz I'm back now >.<
23:50 wizzyrea   the holds queue assigns an item to a reserve
23:51 wizzyrea   I just wrote an explanation of this not long ago, let me see if I can find it
23:52 pastebot   "wizzyrea" at 127.0.0.1 pasted "holds to pull vs. reserve queue" (3 lines) at http://paste.koha-community.org/433
23:53 eythian    see, they really need to be combined into one sane interface
23:54 wizzyrea   yeah, they do. Reserves queue does some fancy-ish mapping of items to reserves
23:54 wizzyrea   it can do stuff like weighting near branches higher, deals with local hold item types
23:54 wizzyrea   holds to pull just vomits out everything and expects the human to deal with it
23:55 wizzyrea   for a single branch, the reserve queue doesn't make a lot of sense
23:55 wizzyrea   except that it is much more succinct than holds to pull.
