01:54 * jcamins_a curses the broken patch.
01:55 jcamins_a Editing the patch to remove the duplicate line results in an error message that the patch doesn't have an e-mail address.
02:12 chris_n deleting one of two content-type lines results in that error?
02:12 jcamins_a is now known as jcamins

04:39 bigbrovar Hi guys I was having some issues getting refined search by libraries to work. turns out I needed 952$a and b in tags once I added that to my marc searching by libraries started working. Now I am trying to get refine search by availability to work. I already have 952$7 set in my marc .. what other holding data field do I need to allow people refine their search to available items
04:45 brendan_l bug 4481 maybe of some help
04:45 munin Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=4481 normal, P5, ---, ian.walls, ASSIGNED, Search's Limit to Available filters out many available items
04:48 bigbrovar brendan_l: ahh so I was not doing it wrong then.  I heard there is a patch somewhere, How can I get the patch and can it be applied on a working koha instance or I have to compile it from scratch again?
04:49 brendan_l not sure are you using git?
04:51 bigbrovar nope
04:51 bigbrovar I just downloaded the latest stable release.
04:54 bigbrovar brendan_l: most likely might have to wait for the next stable release upgrade my current instance then
04:55 * bigbrovar time to catch some sleep before day break

14:33 kf oh
14:33 jcamins kf: I tried the blogging thing once.
14:33 jcamins I don't have a camera.
14:34 kf question: someone willing and able to sign-off on my patch for adding state to all 3 addresses?
14:34 jcamins Nor do I write good addresses.
14:34 jcamins Argh!
14:34 jcamins Recipes.

15:09 owen kf: I wonder if it would be logical to apply the same change to the structure of the branches table?
15:09 kf file a bug for it ;)
15:09 kf I think it would be, but better make a separate patch for it
15:10 owen Yeah, I agree. It doesn't hold up the usefulness of your changes
15:10 kf and feel free to make the display better - I was not sure how it has to look like
15:12 owen Oh, I see something else to put on the list (sorry)
15:12 kf no problem
15:12 owen The cities table should be updated to offer a state field as well
15:12 kf oh
15:12 kf we don't use that, have not thougth about it
15:13 kf I think filing bugs with some information how it has to work would be good
15:13 kf we don't have that in addresses here
15:13 owen Yes, I'll file separate bugs for those two ideas
15:17 kf that would be great
15:17 jcamins nengard: 30-something pages of documentation coming your way. Happy Thanksgiving!
15:18 nengard woo hoo!! :)
15:21 kf jcamins: what is the topic? :)
15:22 jcamins I know that nothing makes a person, especially a documentation manager, thankful like the thought "at least I didn't have to write *this*."
15:22 owen Hopefully baking
15:22 jcamins kf: Koha.
15:22 jcamins It's the ANS site manual.
15:22 kf ?
15:22 jcamins So now nengard can take what's useful for the main manual.
15:22 jcamins I documented how we do things, and all our configuration.
15:23 jcamins Painfully.
15:23 kf ah
15:23 kf :)
15:23 jcamins The problem is that I had to write it in Microsoft Word, and then I didn't really have any way to get it out other than copy-and-paste.
15:23 kf doing that in German for my coworkers right now
15:23 * jcamins hates MS Word
15:26 jcamins Well, feel free to translate any useful parts of the ANS's documentation into German.

15:42 hdl http://git.biblibre.com/?p=koha;a=summary

15:43 hdl kf: where did you get that link from ?
15:43 kf public repo site on the iwki
15:43 kf http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]_Git_Repositories
15:49 nengard jcamins i like the cataloging sheet!!
15:50 nengard gonna find a way to get that into the manual
15:50 kf hdl: I updated the link
15:50 nengard even though it's not koha specific - it is something i get asked for
15:50 jcamins Lesson for posterity: if you have run a script which opens and saves every record, it might not be a good idea to use the log viewer over that time period.
15:50 jcamins nengard: I'm not surprised.
15:51 jcamins Especially for sites that have just migrated from a non-marc system.
15:52 * jcamins remembers when all web browsers had frame rates.

16:03 cfouts joined #koha
16:03 owen It was only one template file missing the state, but all those scripts use that same include
16:03 kf yeah, but they should have shown up :( will check my command
16:03 kf can you perhaps attach for patch to the bug?
16:04 kf I am not sure how to get the patch out of your mail correctly
16:04 owen I think if you save the email as a text file you can apply it just like that
16:05 kf we are talking about ms outlook here...
16:06 kf I think it will miss the header - telling it that it was you who wrote it
16:06 owen I'll send it to you as an attachment
16:07 jcamins Does anyone else use 583 Action Note?
16:08 wizzyrea what I learned about patches from email
16:08 wizzyrea you have to have the FROM header at the top
16:08 wizzyrea a SUBJECT header
16:09 wizzyrea and the content (all content) of the body of the message
16:09 wizzyrea and good morning.

16:25 kf owen: I can give you an example, give me a second
16:25 owen slef: No. It went into a testing branch and that was the last I heard of it
16:26 owen slef: I wonder if the switch to template toolkit makes it moot
16:26 slef owen: do you know.... heh, snap!
16:26 kf owen: enter this as control number in one record for testing: 316187453
16:27 slef owen: OK if I add it to the 3.4 Roadmap as a must-have if the switch to template toolkit doesn't happen?
16:27 kf owen: and this as search link: http://swb.bsz-bw.de/DB=2.1/PPNSET?PPN={CONTROLNUMBER}

17:31 chris_n http://git.koha-community.org/[…]9fbaeaf67efba2417
17:32 slef chris_n: if you're willing to consider it for release, I think I'm willing to test it.
17:32 slef chris_n: OK, that's confusing. I thought owen wrote the patch, not gcollum.
17:32 chris_n slef: if that is the correct fix, I'll push it now
17:32 slef chris_n: also, I don't understand why my git log didn't see that commit.

17:33 owen http://git.koha-community.org/[…]2b3a169c20df31966
17:33 chris_n so we have that in 3.2.x atm

17:35 chris_n owen: will your patch finish the fix
17:35 slef Maybe that should be PATCH-Sent?
17:35 owen No, that patch will only cover the OPAC
17:35 slef with a note/link to where the patch is?
17:35 owen Actually I thought I'd sent fixes for the staff client too
17:36 chris_n slef: I will push any security/exploit related patches
17:39 owen I do have changes for the staff client, but the work is a few months old now. I'm sure it will have to be updated.
17:40 owen I'm willing to do so, but I'm wondering if the template-toolkit change will make my work invalid for 3.4
17:41 slef I suspect it will, as long as it happens.  It's still good for 3.2.
17:41 slef And we might end up needing it for 3.4.
17:42 * chris_n thinks any security related bugs should be fixed regardless
17:45 chris http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]late_toolkit_test
17:46 chris any changes you make will carry over
17:47 chris escape=HTML becomes | h in TT
17:49 chris and |url etc
17:51 slef chris: can we set a default, though?
17:51 slef rather than rely on people remembering |h after everything
17:53 chris yes we can, but then you have to change everywhere you want to turn it off too
17:53 chris the first cut of template::toolkit conversion is provide an equivalent version
17:54 chris phase 2, we can change things like the default
17:55 slef When's phase 2?
17:56 owen chris: I've done work to do that, to set the default and to change everywhere we want to turn it off
17:57 owen I just wanted to make sure there wasn't an aspect of template-toolkit that would make my work invalid
17:57 chris nope, none at all owen
17:57 owen Glad to hear it :)
17:57 slef chris: so we can get owen's patches into 3.2 and then get an equivalent version for 3.4 from the TT-conversion?
17:57 chris yep
17:57 slef cool.
17:58 chris people testing the templates would be very handy
18:00 chris_n slef: I'll push fixes as chris pushes them to head
18:28 chris I might get a chance today
18:29 chris More likely tomorrow
18:29 chris I think this horrible tradgedy might mean I need to help out on stuff
18:30 wizzyrea :( so awful
18:33 slef On a happier note, would anyone like to opine about bug 5377?  I think Koha 3.0 also rejects multiple ISBNs on some MARC imports but I could be wrong.
18:33 munin Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=5377 major, P5, ---, gmcharlt, NEW, Database fields too small for multiple ISBN and ISSN
18:34 gmcharlt slef: IMO, if we need to store all ISBNs in some fashion outside of the MARC record, we should do it Right (tm) and create a separate table
18:34 gmcharlt specifically, a biblioisbns
18:34 gmcharlt or more generally
18:34 jcamins gmcharlt++
18:34 chris Yeah
18:34 gmcharlt a biblio_attributes
18:35 chris Do we need to store them outside tho?
18:35 gmcharlt good question
18:36 gmcharlt for the purpose of generating displays, main advantage would be to avoid a MARC/MARCXML parsing it, so a separate table to cache them could be speedy
18:36 gmcharlt another purpose would be to enable SQL queries on bib records using something faster than MySQL's rlike operator
18:37 wizzyrea would this proposal also help the issue of multiple ISBN's for a single record (i.e. 10 vs 13 digit ISBN)
18:37 chris Right, so for acqui where we haven't already parsed the full record?
18:38 chris Not by just changing a field size, no not really wizzyrea
18:38 sekjal joined #koha
18:39 wizzyrea the reason I ask that question is because you have to put the 10 digit ISBN in the marc field first for amazon covers to show
18:39 jcamins wizzyrea: didn't BibLibre have a fix for that?
18:39 wizzyrea probably
18:40 jwagner Bug 4305, I think.  It's on my list.
18:40 munin Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=4305 critical, PATCH-Sent, ---, frederic, RESOLVED FIXED, Amazon book covers do not work with ISBN13
18:40 chris Yeah that's a sep issue
18:40 gmcharlt and I suspect it may have to be reopened
18:40 wizzyrea but, (and it's likely i'm not understanding correctly) abstracting the ISBN's might make it easier to work with amazon. Or not. I really don't know.
18:41 gmcharlt most books published in the last few years don't have ISBN-10s
18:41 jcamins I agree, though, that ISBN's shouldn't be stored in an ugly lump in a text field.
18:41 chris Not really
18:41 gmcharlt so I'm not quite sure if/how/why the Amazon API has a problem with ISBN-13s
18:41 chris Yep but I think maybe we don't store them outside the marc
18:42 jcamins chris: I would agree.
18:42 jcamins I think a biblio_attributes table for standard numbers is just going to lead to chaos and confusion.
18:42 chris That would be my fear
18:43 gmcharlt jcamins: well, not necessarily, but to do it right, we'd have to ensure that biblio_attributes was maintained purely automatically
18:43 chris And out of syncness
18:43 chris Yeah
18:43 gmcharlt i.e., the code would never write to that table directly
18:43 slef Anyone know where Fridolyn SOMERS is from?
18:43 slef (reporter of that bug)
18:43 chris Ch I think
18:43 jcamins gmcharlt: even with that, I think there would be problems.
18:44 chris I have a patch of theirs to test
18:44 jcamins ISBNs are *not* unique.
18:44 jcamins They're supposed to be, yet, but three books sitting on my shelf can assure you they aren't.
18:44 gmcharlt jcamins: well, no, but I don't think anybody was proposing to use them as a unique identifier
18:44 chris Crap bus has stopped
18:44 gmcharlt obviously publishers have long proven that they can't manage to assign ISBNs consistently
18:45 jcamins gmcharlt: yeah, but then you need to use a join table.
18:45 slef Shall I summarise the desire for biblio_attributes in that bug report, or would gmcharlt or someone like to put it more eloquently?
18:45 gmcharlt slef: I'll put something in now
18:45 gmcharlt no guarantees about eloquence
18:46 gmcharlt slef: btw, what's up with the BL releasing 3 million bib records in RDF but not in a form that most libraries can use directly, i.e., MARC?
18:47 jcamins Which I guess wouldn't be so bad if biblio and biblioitem were combined, but it seems to me that queries would quickly get complicated otherwise.
18:47 jcamins gmcharlt: just following the lead of LC with id.loc.gov?
18:47 slef gmcharlt: I don't know. What's up with the BL releasing 3 million bib records under non-commercial licences?
18:48 gmcharlt slef: how is CC0 non-commercial?
18:49 gmcharlt it's essentially putting the records in the public domain, so commercial and non-commercial users can play alike
18:50 gmcharlt admittedly, it's churlish of me to ask "may I have some more?", but since very few library catalogs can do anything with RDF triples
18:50 slef gmcharlt: they changed from the last release?
18:50 slef I missed that.
18:50 slef Too little time...
18:50 gmcharlt slef: http://openbiblio.net/2010/11/[…]ary-data-release/
18:51 slef oh well, maybe flaming them for NC did some good ;-)
18:51 gmcharlt heh
18:51 jcamins gmcharlt: it has been my observation that most library data is "released" in formats of doubtful value.
18:51 * jcamins coughs
18:52 gmcharlt gotta protect those MARC record monopolies, I guess
18:52 jcamins "next generation discovery tools"
18:52 slef is there something to make a XSLT to MARCXML non-trivial?
18:53 gmcharlt slef: RDFXML to MARCXL wouldn't be hard, but it looks like a lot of the information from the MARC records didn't make it to the RDF in the BL dataset
18:54 gmcharlt leaving the stones rather unbloody
18:55 slef hrm, blooming sausagemakers
18:55 * jcamins coughs
18:56 tcohen left #koha
18:56 gmcharlt jcamins: coming down with a case of biblioitis?
18:56 jcamins gmcharlt: yeah.
18:57 jcamins I find it incredibly frustrating that I can't find out what books are *actually* owned by the library when I search in these next generation catalogs.
18:58 sekjal jcamins: *actual* ownership is soooo last century
19:00 slef I'm getting confused here. Does biblioitems.isbn ever contain multiple |-delimited values?
19:01 sekjal slef: it can, if multiple 020s are in the MARC
19:02 sekjal but the field size limit usually cuts the second number short
19:03 wizzyrea jcamins: heh, we only "license" our library materials nowadays. </snark>
19:03 slef sekjal: ok... I've got to figure out what patch to cherrypick.  Thanks.

20:16 slef Does anyone know how self-issue machines implement diacriticals and other non-ASCII characters over SIP? It doesn't seem to be specified in the 3M protocols.
20:16 gmcharlt slef: it's all over the map
20:16 gmcharlt various between devices that will accept anything that you throw at them (may not display diacritics correctly, though)
20:16 gmcharlt and others that may insist on particular character encodings
20:16 slef gmcharlt: deep joy.  So again, I get to watch tcpdump to see what the client tries?  Any idea how Koha behaves?
20:19 wizzyrea slef: I have a 3M emulator here
20:20 gmcharlt slef: IIRC Koha just passes any UTF-8 characters over as is
20:20 slef wizzyrea: can you give it a patron card whose owner has a non-ASCII name?
20:21 wizzyrea I think so, gimme a min
20:22 trea slef: the library in basehor, ks i helped set up used 3M self issue machines; normally the client goes into a "maintenance mode" generic error screen when scanning diacriticals, specifically when scanning an item.
20:23 trea i don't recall it's behavior while scanning a patron card
20:23 slef trea: :-(
20:23 trea but chances are good i'd wager the same behavior out of patron cards as well
20:24 wizzyrea I can verify that actually, when given a card number with a + on the end, the sip connection hangs
20:25 wizzyrea as well as if there is a diacritic in any data that is passed back and forth (name, street, etc)
20:26 wizzyrea I bet we can access logs from the machines if that would help though, slef
20:27 slef wizzyrea: :-(  Do you think koha needs to have an option to transliterate for SIP or something?
20:28 trea can you elaborate?
20:28 trea slef:
20:28 gmcharlt slef: an option to strip diacritics no doubt would help
20:29 wizzyrea ^^ what he said
20:29 slef trea: so ĉ becomes cx, and things like that.
20:29 slef gmcharlt: must we strip? Do we already depend on iconv? (/me checks)
20:30 slef yes, we already require Text::Iconv
20:31 gmcharlt slef: yep, allowing one to specify a character conversion would be more flexible; figuring out *what* encoding to use for a given device could be tricky
20:31 slef trea: Transliteration is the practice of transcribing a word or text written in one writing system into another writing system or system of rules for such practice. From a linguistic point of view, transliteration is a mapping from one system of writing into another, word by word, or ideally letter by letter. Transliteration attempts to be exact, so that an informed reader should be... http://a.vu/w:Transliteration

20:34 slef slacker.
20:34 ebegin ibot doesn't know about logbot? ;)
20:34 ibot ebegin: what?
20:34 owen So, am I the only one who didn't know that in the "User Request for update of Record" the changed fields have an all-caps label?
20:34 slef ibot: you heard!
20:34 ibot slef: i'm not following you...
20:35 slef owen: I certainly didn't. :)
20:35 chris i didnt know that either
20:35 slef heh, secret features. one for nengard.
20:35 slef unless it's in the manual already
20:35 owen if($borrowerfield eq $newfield) { ... } else { $message .= uc($field)
20:35 slef where's the manual?
20:35 ibot the manual is, like, at http://www.koha-community.org/documentation
20:35 slef ibot: ta
20:35 ibot slef: huh?
20:36 owen I was just going over the code hoping to be able to add a feature that would highlight the changed fields!
20:36 owen The trouble is it seems to always give a false positive on a few fields
20:36 owen Address, emailaddress, b-address
20:39 * owen sees an easy fix for the email false positive

22:50 cfouts greetings, #koha
22:50 chris heya
22:50 cfouts can anyone who's not away preparing turkey explain the purpose of this:
22:50 cfouts RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} (.*?)(?:[A-Za-z0-9_-]+)=&(.*)
22:50 cfouts RewriteRule (.+) $1?%1%2 [N,R,NE]
22:50 cfouts in the httpd-conf?
22:52 chris the rest of the rules are important too
22:52 chris that first one is a regex
22:52 cfouts it has the effect of issuing a redirect to another URL with contiguous value-less variables being concatenated
22:53 chris was something liblime did back in the day to allow people to craft urls like
22:53 cfouts such that "defaults_items.booksellerid=&defaults_items.code​d_location_qualifier=&defaults_items.price=10.00" becomes "defaults_items.defaults_items.defaul​ts_items.defaults_items.price=10.00"
22:53 chris http://opac.library.org.nz/isbn/123456
22:54 chris was before my time at liblime, and yours as well :)
22:54 cfouts very much so
22:54 cfouts so many mysteries
22:54 chris yes, theres no reason to have that rewrite in the intranet
22:54 chris it provided the start of a nicer interface to the opac
22:55 cfouts I see. so it was an early RESTish sort of interface
22:55 chris yup
22:55 cait joined #koha
22:56 cait hi #koha
22:56 chris hi cait
22:56 cait hi chris :)
22:57 chris cfouts: http://opac.library.org.nz/bib/312
22:57 chris it still sorta works
22:58 chris heh that didnt work
22:58 chris try hitting http://opac.liblime.com
23:01 cfouts that's interesting
23:08 cfouts that's an old VMware instance, apparently been repurposed.
23:09 chris heh
23:10 cait slef: around?
23:11 cait chris, cfouts: what are you playing?
23:12 cait @later tell slef afaik our self check handles diacritics correctly - probably even hebrew titles
23:12 munin cait: The operation succeeded.
23:13 cait I worried a lot about hte self check before we went into production -  but it really works great :) I love to watch the students when I am at the library for training.
23:14 cfouts cait: doing an archeological survey of Apache RewriteRules defined by default in Koha
23:14 cait wow
23:14 cait sounds like fun :)
23:15 cfouts there's a reason the party follows us
23:16 jcamins_a Woohoo! RewriteRule party in Koha-land!
23:20 chris cfouts: wanna see some even older stuff?
23:20 cait hi jcamins
23:20 cait there was something I wanted to tell you...
23:20 chris check out round line 116 in opac-search.pl
23:20 cait ah, we reelased 2.6 million records in marc21 ;)
