does someone know a digital library that wold be witten in Perl, server-oriented with a web interface as Koha ? |

cause those I found (partly thanks to you all) are often in Java or have a GUI client, which makes them not as interesting as things that wold be similar to Koha in their web-based interface |

hi schuster |

I need to run a report showing all the holds in the system and if I can get the date the hold was placed. |
12:29 |
|
jdavidb |
Mornin', schuster. |
12:30 |
|
gmcharlt |
schuster: reseves.reservedate is when the hold was placed |
12:30 |
|
schuster |
So "reserves" are the same as Holds - just checking terminology. |
12:31 |
|
gmcharlt |
yep |
12:31 |
|
schuster |
ok that helps. I'm trying to start using holds again with the new hold features from NEKLS and need to probably clean out some old holds. |
12:33 |
|
jdavidb |
You could always brute-force it-- "TRUNCATE reserves;" :P |
12:33 |
|
* jdavidb |
listens for the screams. |
12:34 |
|
schuster |
Should have thought of that earlier this summer when I had someone go in and delete them all manually... That comes from Legacy ILS's where you never knew what would happen if you monkey'd with stuff under the hood. |
12:34 |
|
gmcharlt |
schuster: well, even with OSS ILSs it's still a good idea to ask before randomly truncating tables :) |
12:35 |
|
jdavidb |
It still can be hazardous, surely. But that one, in particular, would be relatively safe; there aren't many downline table cascades there. |
12:36 |
|
jdavidb |
It's more-often a question of "do you really want that?" than "What will this break?" Picking at the code, you can answer the second question. |
12:38 |
|
schuster |
I try not to pick code - I'm still learning how it all works together! |
12:39 |
|
schuster |
so when I do select count(*) from reserves I get 62 - but when I do select branchcode from reserves it gives me 19 - ??? |

I guess it depends whether your "technically" is widely applicable enough to leave it? |

IMO- if you're using Zebra, you don't need and shouldn't configure stopwords, so I'm in favor of hiding or de-emphasizing it |

am i missing something? I have put items on hold which are on shelf |
14:33 |
|
owen |
kf, I noticed the same thing yesterday. We always use the holds queue report, so I hadn't noticed the other one wasn't working. |
14:34 |
|
kf |
I thought the holds queue was all holds in the library - including holds on books that are checked out |
14:35 |
|
kf |
so whats the difference between holds to pull and holds queue? |
14:35 |
|
kf |
owen: and thx for fixing my display bug! |
14:36 |
|
owen |
Holds queue shouldn't include holds on things that are checked out |
14:37 |
|
owen |
As far as I know there's not a report to show you *all* holds, available or not. |
14:37 |
|
owen |
We used to do a custom report on holds which hadn't been fulfilled for a certain amount of time, but that was in 2.x |
14:38 |
|
kf |
thx |
14:39 |
|
kf |
I think we can do it the same way. its just important to have a list of items you need to pull |
14:39 |
|

Unless someone can explain to us what we're doing wrong. I posted a message to the Koha list yesterday mentioning this issue, but no responses to that either. |
14:49 |

transfers and holds are still pretty buggy, unfortunately. |

we need reserves - hope its not too buggy to be used |

No, not at all |

Is it About Biblio data ? |
15:57 |

it's pulling all of the lists a biblio can be found in to print on the detail pages |
15:57 |
|
nengard |
so yes |
15:58 |
|
nengard |
but it's also about output |
15:58 |
|
nengard |
which is why i was confused on which to pick |
15:59 |
|
pianohacker |
nengard: lists as in virtualshelves? |
15:59 |
|
nengard |
yes |
16:00 |

but since it was for the biblio detail page i didn't think it belonged with the virtualsehelves stuff |
16:00 |
|
nengard |
so many choices!!! :) |
16:00 |
|
pianohacker |
It's dealing mostly with virtualshelves, though. My vote would be for C4::VirtualShelves, whatever it's worth :) |
16:01 |

So - in short it's mostly up to me as long as I can make the right argument for it? :) |

Maybe pianohacker or some other smart Perlish person could help me with branch_transfer_limits.pl? |
16:08 |
|
owen |
Right now there is a branchcode_loop which displays the table header with the branch codes |
16:08 |
|
owen |
Because it's outside the ccodes loop you can't repeat the header for each set of ccodes |
16:08 |
|
owen |
If you've scrolled to the bottom of the page you can't see the table header anymore |
16:09 |
|
owen |
But I'm not sure how to get branchcode_loop nested properly inside codes_loop so it can repeat |
16:10 |
|
|
|Lupin| left #koha |
16:12 |
|
pianohacker |
It doesn't have to be |
16:13 |
|
pianohacker |
Since the branchcode_loop is global, you can reference it inside ccode_loop |
16:16 |
|
owen |
It doesn't work when I move the <!-- TMPL_LOOP NAME="branchcode_loop" --> inside <!-- TMPL_LOOP NAME="codes_loop" --> |
16:18 |
|
pianohacker |
What does it do? |
16:18 |
|
owen |
I get no output from branchcode_loop |
16:19 |
|
pianohacker |
Would it be possible to pastebin exactly what you get from View Source? It's possible the template and firefox are interacting in strange ways |
16:22 |
|
owen |
There's really nothing to see... There is simply no output from branchcode_loop |
16:22 |
|
owen |
<!-- branchcode_loop begins here --> |
16:22 |
|
owen |
<!-- branchcode loop ends here --> |

i will try that on my test server if you try it on yours. |
18:01 |
|
joetho |
with and w/o independent branches turned on. |
18:02 |
|
joetho |
speaking of which, I don't recall ever talking about OD email notices from a test server. |
18:02 |
|
joetho |
Hmmm. |
18:02 |
|
wizzyrea |
holy moly, can you imagine |
18:02 |
|
wizzyrea |
with old data |
18:03 |
|
wizzyrea |
everybody would get OD notices |
18:03 |
|
joetho |
there are a whole lot of OD items in mine |
18:03 |
|
wizzyrea |
99.9% sure that email is off for our test server |
18:03 |
|
joetho |
tell Sharon to turn it back on |
18:03 |
|
joetho |
at 4:59 this afternoon |
18:04 |

joetho |
So testing there won't work, hopefully. |
18:04 |

I can try it on our production server- that admin mail goes to me and there is never any. |

Question: shouldn't lifting the debarrment on a patron immediately allow them to check out materials regardless of their fine level? |
19:32 |
|
owen |
debarrment is separate from blocks related to fines, though |
19:32 |
|
owen |
debarrment is a simple flag on the account |
19:32 |
|
owen |
blocks related to fines are governed by other rules |
19:33 |
|
owen |
Of course that doesn't answer the "should" question in the abstract sense |
19:36 |
|
Sharon |
So is there a way to lift a fine debarment without removing the fines. |
19:37 |
|
Sharon |
other than putting in a bogus manual payment/invoice. |
19:38 |
|
wizzyrea |
was that a philosophical choice, i.e. working as intended, or something that just was overlooked? |
19:40 |
|
owen |
I'm not sure, because we don't use fines... In fact maybe I'm wrong altogether. I can't find where the fines threshold is set |
19:40 |
|
|
joetho joined #koha |
19:41 |
|
wizzyrea |
from our testing it would appear that you are correct |
19:41 |
|
wizzyrea |
:) |
19:41 |
|
owen |
But are your patrons being debarred because a cron job is looking at their fines, or are checkouts being blocked (regardless of debarrment) because of fines levels? |

What would be the purpose of "select all" on the library transfer limits page? (admin/branch_transfer_limits.pl) |
20:03 |
|
owen |
Wouldn't that be in effect independentbranches? |
20:07 |
|
cait |
perhaps make it easier to configure if you just want to deselect a few |
20:11 |
|
owen |
Hmm... maybe. But if your library has 45 collection codes like we do it seems impractical to have it check all for each collection code set |

chris about? |

chris |

20:15 |

chris_n |
chris: can I gain any mileage (kilometerage) by formating patches against the origin which is the current HEAD rather than against origin/3.0.x which is what I developed over? |
20:15 |
|
* chris_n |
hopes that makes sense.. 8-S |
20:16 |
|
chris |
yep, if you do that they will be able to go into 3.2 |
20:17 |
|
chris |
so what i would do |
20:17 |
|
chris |
is create a branch off origin/master |
20:17 |
|
chris |
cherry-pick your commits to it |
20:17 |
|
chris |
and format you patches therer |
20:18 |

owen: checkouts are being blocked (regardless of debarrment) because of fines levels |
20:18 |
|
wizzyrea |
sorry, drama here *eyeroll* |
20:19 |
|
owen |
wizzyrea: Where did you set the fine level which is blocking the checkout? |
20:19 |
|
wizzyrea |
15 bucks |
20:20 |
|
chris |
yeah the 2 things work independently |
20:20 |
|
wizzyrea |
(I know... why would you want to temporarily lift a debarment for a patron who owes over 15 bucks in fines) |
20:20 |
|
chris |
patrons can be debarred for all sorts of reasons |
20:20 |
|
owen |
I mean where did you enter the $15 value? I don't even know what part of Koha sets that |
20:20 |
|
chris |
i think there is a syspref that allows you to override the fines block tho |
20:20 |
|
wizzyrea |
Yea, but we want that |
20:21 |
|
pianohackr|work |
noissuescharge, I think is the syspref |
20:21 |
|
wizzyrea |
PHW: yea, I think that's right |
20:21 |
|
owen |
Thank you pianohackr|work. Of course I was searching for a "fine" pref :| |
20:21 |
|
pianohackr|work |
That would be too easy |
20:22 |
|
wizzyrea |
chris: so, concieveably, you could have the following situation: A patron gets debarred for excessive overdues, and also for fines. You can lift the debarment for overdues, but the fines debarment stands |
20:22 |
|
chris |
exactly |
20:22 |
|
chris |
or they are debarred cos they punch some kid |
20:22 |
|
chris |
and have no fines |
20:22 |
|
owen |
There seems to be everything but a fines override syspref |
20:22 |
|
chris |
:) |
20:22 |
|
chris |
there debarred is just a flag |
20:22 |
|

AllowHoldPolicyOverride, AllowNotForLoanOverride, AllowRenewalLimitOverride |

paul_p left #koha |

|
chris |
wizzyrea: you dont need to debarr someone for massive fines, cos the noissuecharge stops them issuing |
20:23 |
|
wizzyrea |
so... is that a philosophical feature omission or an accidental one |
20:23 |
|
pianohackr|work |
I wrote a fines limit override, controlled by granular permission, for PTFS; it should be heading to the patches list fairly soon |
20:24 |
|
wizzyrea |
PHW: you are always saving our bacon |
20:24 |
|
owen |
Don't save it up too long, it doesn't keep! |
20:24 |
|
wizzyrea |
oh, we crumble it up and put it in mayonnaise and put it with kansas summer tomatoes |
20:24 |
|
chris |
basically debar is for when there isnt another way ... if that makes sense |
20:25 |
|
wizzyrea |
chris, sure that makes sense |
20:25 |
|
wizzyrea |
chris: also though, they want to be able to temporarily override the fines debarment (say, a patron lost an expensive book and is making payments or somesuch) |
20:26 |
|
chris |
yep, you wouldnt set the debarment in that case, you would let the noissuescharge catch them, and then use jesses new fines limit override |
20:26 |
|
chris |
if you set the debar flagged, you would have go unset that, and then still use the fines limit override |
20:27 |
|
pianohackr|work |
Also, that same code will allow you (if you're very very nitpicky) to not give fines limit override permissions to your circ clerks, give them to a circ manager, and use a temporary override login to override fine limits |
20:27 |

what would you call it instead? |

see |
21:02 |
|

it's long - but i'd use it if you're all okay with it |
21:02 |

they say collection in one place |
21:02 |
|
chris |
and lists in another |
21:02 |
|

as translation manager ... that sux |
21:02 |
|
nengard |
cause they're two diff things - aren't they? |
21:03 |
|
nengard |
they have add to MY COLLECTION and SAVE TO A LIST |
21:03 |
|
chris |
isnt a collection just a private list |
21:03 |
|
nengard |
no clue :) might be like LibraryThing |
21:03 |
|

or a private list |
21:04 |
|
chris |
collections is better than lists i think |
21:04 |

09:07 < chris> what was wrong with virtual shelves anyway? |
21:22 |

:) |
21:22 |

im sure there must have been some reason we changed? |
21:23 |
|
wizzyrea |
ok... what if the users make lists |
21:23 |
|
wizzyrea |
librarians make virtual shelves |
21:23 |
|
chris |
that might work |
21:23 |
|
pianohackr|work |
chris: right, missed that |
21:23 |
|
wizzyrea |
i mean, the context of list for a *patron* is "it's a list of stuff I want to remember" |
21:23 |
|
chris |
yep |
21:24 |
|
wizzyrea |
for a librarian it's the virtual equiv. of (example) the endcap of a shelf |
21:24 |
|
pianohackr|work |
I think the benefits of that difference might actually outweigh any confusion caused by it |
21:24 |

highlighted items |
21:24 |
|

another possibility |
21:24 |
|

would be a tooltip |

true, a mouseover explanation might be useful |

example: here's a patron who made a public list, it's very amazon-y http://catalog.nexpresslibrary[…].pl?viewshelf=165 |

21:30 |

maybe it would be better to do something like the following: create the lists from the tags |
21:30 |
|
wizzyrea |
why have two functions? |
21:30 |
|
chris |
hmmm |
21:30 |
|
chris |
from the carts? |
21:31 |
|
chris |
you mean ? |
21:31 |
|
wizzyrea |
I'm thinking we already have public and private tags |
21:31 |
|
wizzyrea |
and public and private lists |
21:32 |
|
wizzyrea |
why not consolidate into just tags, and have a display that shows, in brief format like the lists display, all items tagged alike |
21:32 |
|
wizzyrea |
so RAZ's scifi list would be tagged RAZ_SCIFI |
21:32 |
|
wizzyrea |
or something |
21:33 |
|
chris |
oh, hmm might make the tag cloud messy |
21:33 |
|

tho does anyone ever use them? |

true... but... tag clouds are supposed to be messy, imo |
21:34 |
|
chris |
interesting idea, i quite like it |

our children's librarians are making an effort to use the tagging to share storytime titles with each other |
21:34 |
|
chris |
well seems ppl are already doing it too :) |
21:35 |
|
chris |
as a parent, anything to make more storytimes is great by me :) |
21:35 |
|
chris |
specially if the library has a cafe like WCL |
21:35 |
|
chris |

couldn't have done it without chris and pianohacker! |
21:41 |
|
wizzyrea |
but think about that combination, I will happily do a mock up of it, I think it might be an improvement of lists/tags |
21:42 |
|
wizzyrea |
but maybe not |

worth doing a mockup wizzyrea, we can whack up a quick prototype .. see if it flies |
21:45 |
|
gmcharlt |
only if you whack it from the bottom, not the top |
21:45 |
|
chris |
heh |
21:45 |
|
nengard |
wizzyrea and chris I'm reading back - but I think we still need both |
21:46 |
|
nengard |
tags and lists |
21:46 |
|
nengard |
because so many peopel don't get tags |
21:46 |
|
chris |
i think this last week is one of the most patchiest weeks ever |
21:46 |
|
nengard |
also - librarything started out with just tags and added collections cause of popular demand |
21:46 |
|
chris |
nengard: maybe just the tooltip mouseover then |
21:47 |
|
nengard |
even flickr has both - sets and tags ... it's just the way things are :) |
21:47 |
|
chris |
sets |
21:47 |
|
chris |
i like sets better than lists |
21:47 |
|
chris |
:) |
21:47 |
|
nengard |
hehe |
21:48 |
|
chris |
but im actually leaning towards just having contextual help, like a mouseover so ppl know what it is |
21:48 |
|
nengard |
know what what is? lists or tags? |
21:48 |
|
nengard |
or both? |
21:48 |
|
chris |
both |
21:49 |
|
chris |
everything in fact |
21:49 |
|
nengard |
hmmm |
21:49 |
|
chris |
:) |
21:49 |
|
nengard |
seems a bit overkill |
21:50 |
|
chris |
well if we cant find a word that isnt ambigious, seems the next best thing |
21:51 |
|
chris |
or we could just have help on the opac too |
21:52 |
|
chris |
but no one ever clicks on that irl |
21:52 |
|
chris |
or at least not the people who need help :) |
21:55 |
