kados: give me a holler if you get a moment |

kados |
owen: yo |
| 11:27 |
|
owen |
Hey. |
| 11:27 |
|
owen |
Okay, say I have 3 virtually identical MARC records and I want to merge them |
| 11:28 |
|
kados |
hehe |
| 11:28 |
|
kados |
chris has a new editor for doing that |
| 11:28 |
|
owen |
I figured it had to be in the pipeline |
| 11:28 |
|
kados |
yea, definitely |
| 11:29 |
|
kados |
it's really slick, just in acceptance testing now |
| 11:29 |
|
kados |
for the library that sponsored it |
| 11:29 |
|
hdl |
hi |
| 11:29 |
|
kados |
hey hdl |
| 11:29 |
|
hdl |
is there a url for new marc editor ? |
| 11:29 |
|
owen |
But until then... I can manually update the biblionumber in items, right? |
| 11:30 |
|
kados |
owen: yea, that should work |
| 11:30 |
|
owen |
What about biblioitems? |
| 11:30 |
|
kados |
wait |
| 11:31 |
|
kados |
yea, you can delete from biblio, biblioitems the duplicates, then change the biblionumber on items |
| 11:31 |
|
kados |
then re-index zebra |
| 11:32 |
|
kados |
to remove the duplicate from the index |
| 11:33 |
|
kados |
hdl: don't think there's a URL, and it's not really a 'new marc editor', just a new feature for the existing one |
| 11:33 |
|
kados |
hdl: (we do badly need a new marc editor though :/) |
| 11:34 |
|
hdl |
yes. |
| 11:35 |
|
hdl |
But quite hard to manage if we are to be Norm (MARC, MODS, DC, ONIX,...) independant + flexible as it was !!! |
| 11:37 |
|
hdl |
(kados : that could be managed via frameworks...) |
| 11:38 |
|
hdl |
kados owen : consider updating the marc datas with items data. |
| 11:38 |
|
hdl |
or MARC and NON-MARC won't be consistant. |
| 11:39 |
|
kados |
? |
| 11:39 |
|
kados |
hdl: not sure I understand |
| 11:41 |
|
hdl |
I think that in your process to merge items into a biblio, you donot update MARC datas, I think it may be dangerous. |
| 11:42 |
|
kados |
hdl: in dev_week, items table is authoritative for items data, and the MARC data is updated automatically |
| 11:43 |
|
kados |
hdl: updated by a batch process update_items.pl |
| 11:43 |
|
hdl |
(managing all those versions is a nightmare) |
| 11:44 |
|
owen |
kados, do I remember that with zebra you have the capability to query it from an external source and have it return xml or something like that? |
| 11:44 |
|
kados |
owen: yep, and in zebra 2.0 you can even hand it xslt and it will do transformations as well |
| 11:45 |
|
owen |
Can you tell me a little about how that works? |
| 11:46 |
|
kados |
owen: &XMLgetbiblio in Biblio.pm |
| 11:46 |
|
kados |
wait, nevermind |
| 11:46 |
|
kados |
that's pulling from biblioitems |
| 11:47 |
|
owen |
For instance, could a PHP script on another server send a request to zebra and get a result set back? |
| 11:47 |
|
kados |
sure |
| 11:48 |
|
kados |
for about an hour |
| 11:49 |
|
owen |
Okay, whenever you get time I'd appreciate it. |
| 11:49 |
|
kados |
sure |

owen |
kyle around, by any chance? |
| 12:09 |
|
tnb |
I just hopped on, so i haven't seen him |
| 12:09 |
|
owen |
It sounded like they had a potentially very complex system to do. |
| 13:50 |
|
hdl |
kados around ? |
| 13:50 |
|
kados |
hdl: yep |
| 13:51 |

| 13:51 |
|
kados |

| 13:52 |
