04:06 Penggu hi all
04:08 Penggu i was thinking of a way to have a very quick import system for new items:
04:08 Penggu 1) scan barcode at the back of the book (isbn/issn),
04:08 Penggu 2) scan our barcode label on the item
04:08 Penggu 3) goto (1)
04:09 Penggu in the meantime, system will use (2) to match or search and import marc records automatically
04:09 Penggu and just flag the ones with no match without interrupting workflow
04:09 Penggu and later on, librarian can inspect the mismatches and complete the records
04:10 Penggu it would be nice to have it in a datasheet format (similar to checks ins/outs)
04:10 Penggu how difficult would it be to do something like this? i suppose such a facility doesn't already exist in koha?

06:49 sturmtruppen little question:
06:49 cait @wunder Konstanz
06:49 huginn cait: The current temperature in Taegerwilen, Taegerwilen, Germany is 2.8°C (7:49 AM CET on March 16, 2012). Conditions: Clear. Humidity: 93%. Dew Point: 2.0°C. Windchill: 3.0°C. Pressure: 30.34 in 1027.3 hPa (Rising).
06:49 sturmtruppen is it possible scan a bar code and obtain the isbn of the book in koha?
06:50 cait with z39.50 download
06:50 cait but you have to do them one by one
06:50 cait in cataloging
06:50 cait z39.50 search
06:50 cait cursor into isbn field ... scan, search, choose
06:50 sturmtruppen one by one...
06:50 cait yeah
06:50 cait often you will find more than one record
06:50 sturmtruppen yeah
06:51 cait @wunder Konstanz
06:51 huginn cait: The current temperature in Taegerwilen, Taegerwilen, Germany is 2.8°C (7:49 AM CET on March 16, 2012). Conditions: Clear. Humidity: 93%. Dew Point: 2.0°C. Windchill: 3.0°C. Pressure: 30.34 in 1027.3 hPa (Rising).
06:51 cait hm
06:51 cait @wunder Dortmund
06:51 huginn cait: The current temperature in Dortmund, Germany is 10.0°C (7:20 AM CET on March 16, 2012). Conditions: Clear. Humidity: 54%. Dew Point: 1.0°C. Pressure: 30.15 in 1021 hPa (Steady).
06:51 sturmtruppen i prefer the line command
06:51 sturmtruppen nice trick cait...
06:51 cait I think thre are tools to help with what you want to do
06:51 cait but it's not in koha
06:51 cait to take isbns and find records for those
06:52 cait perhaps ask again later or on the list
06:52 akosh how I can know koha's version
06:52 cait it's on the about page
06:52 cait in staff interface, go to the more pull down > about koha
06:52 sturmtruppen the real problem is that i have 2000 written isbn without dash (-)
06:52 cait hm
06:52 akosh ok, i'll try
06:52 cait unimarc right?
06:53 cait inmarc21 that's the normal way to write it, but I think different for unimarc
06:53 cait and it makes more sense with dashes
06:53 sturmtruppen and the italian sbn don't found much of that because they haven't dash
06:53 cait sturmtruppen: not sure at all and have to catch my bus :(
06:53 sturmtruppen ok
06:54 sturmtruppen next time, or someone else or internet, or... ineed to study much more....
06:54 laurence joined #koha
06:54 akosh where is it, i couldn't find
06:54 akosh where is "about" page
06:55 akosh someone can help me?
06:55 Brooke do you know about MARCedit?
06:55 sturmtruppen i'm looking for your abswer, i'm newbie too
06:55 Brooke akosh are you on the OPAC side of things and not the Staff client?
06:56 akosh no I'm logged in as administrator
06:56 sturmtruppen int the Staff session, you have to click in About Koha
06:57 sturmtruppen on my system is http://127.0.1.1:8080/cgi-bin/koha/about.pl
06:59 akosh sturmtruppen you are genius
06:59 akosh i find it, but in the form about Koha version empty
07:00 jransom joined #koha
07:00 sturmtruppen mh
07:00 sturmtruppen did you install koha on debian by repository?
07:02 Brooke did you get it from koha-community.org ?
07:02 akosh no I didn't
07:02 sturmtruppen which answer...?
07:03 akosh i has been installed by Korean volounteers
07:04 sturmtruppen akosh: you downloaded the source from where?
07:04 akosh and in koha about page, there is written "rilcis"
07:05 akosh I don't know
07:06 akosh and in koha about page, there is written "rilcis" instead of "koha"
07:06 akosh Do you think this is the reason why koha's version was not shown
07:07 sturmtruppen akosh: maybe you have to wait someone more expert than me... sorry! :(
07:08 akosh ok, all the same you helped very much, thank you
07:09 akosh by the way do you know how to add counter to opac's main page?
07:10 sturmtruppen a counter? why do you need a counte on opac?

07:44 julian_m joined #koha
07:44 sturmtruppen another little question: when i scan the barcode for the isbn, can i obtain the dash in the right palce or i obtain just the sequences of number?
07:44 magnuse perhaps she fell asleep
07:44 sturmtruppen *place
07:46 magnuse sturmtruppen: not sure, might depend on the scanner?
07:47 mbalmer sturmtruppen you only get the numbers from a scanner.
07:47 sturmtruppen ok, so i do not need
07:48 cait-m i think stripping them out would work
07:48 cait-m but not putting them back in - can't work
07:49 sturmtruppen again: which is the css i need to modified to change the layout of the opac?
07:51 cait-m there are different options

07:54 cait-m you don't want to edit css files

12:06 cait I think I noticed the problem in one of our installations
12:06 jcamins If you can do it in the next ten minutes, I'll sign off.
12:06 magnuse cait: which one were you thinking about?

12:07 * jcamins looks at the time.
12:07 cait yeah, still on a train ;)
12:07 jcamins Hrm. No, I guess I don't quite have time.
12:07 magnuse cait: the initial patch works only for marc21 - i implement it for normarc in another patch
12:07 cait oh
12:07 cait !
12:07 magnuse ...which will need changing too
12:08 magnuse jcamins: would just replacing the text in the patch work? or will that produce an invalid patch, somehow?
12:08 jcamins magnuse: I don't think you can replace it in a patch, but I use the following procedure for this sort of thing:
12:08 magnuse hm, the description needs changing too
12:08 jcamins git commit --amend to get the list of all the files touched.
12:09 jcamins vim (list of files)
12:09 jcamins :%s/TracingQuotes/ICUQuotes/g
12:09 jcamins :wn
12:09 jcamins (rinse, repeat)
12:10 jcamins When you get to the last file, run :wq, then hit the up arrow to bring back the vim command line, Ctrl-A to go to the beginning, delete key three times, type git add, hit enter.
12:10 jcamins git commit --amend
12:10 jcamins (change message)
12:11 jcamins Yeah, I've done this a few times.
12:11 cait magic!
12:11 * magnuse is impressed
12:11 magnuse yeah, if you do a new patch i'll sign off
12:11 jcamins I'd do it now, except I don't quite have time before I go to meet with the contractors again.
12:11 jcamins .
12:12 magnuse ah, i'll do a patch then
12:12 jcamins Thanks.
12:12 magnuse np
12:12 jcamins I'll sign off over the weekend. :)
12:12 * jcamins runs to meet the contractors.
12:16 magnuse hm, what would a good name for the syspref, i wonder? "UsingICU"
12:16 magnuse ICUinUse
12:21 slef UseICU ?
12:21 cait UseICU sounds good to me I think
12:22 cait nice and short
12:22 magnuse yeah, but that sort of sounds more like you can turn icu on and off with it
12:22 magnuse oh well, i guess there has to be a not about that not being the case anyway

18:08 wizzyrea interesting, "pathfinders"
18:08 wizzyrea didn't work
18:08 wizzyrea "reasearch by subject" did
18:08 * jcamins tries to appear surprised, and fails.
18:10 jcamins Utterly.
18:10 wizzyrea oh that's a good one
18:10 wizzyrea browse vs keyword
18:10 wizzyrea label browse searches as
18:10 wizzyrea title begins with ...
18:10 wizzyrea subject begins with...
18:11 wizzyrea or title includes
18:11 wizzyrea includes instead of begins
18:11 * jcamins prefers "contains."
18:12 jcamins It's more common.
18:12 wizzyrea sure
18:12 jcamins I think Google uses "contains."
18:14 jcamins Not anymore. Now it's just "with."
18:14 wizzyrea looks split 50/50 between "use 'Electronic Resources'" and "Don't use 'Electronic Resources'"

18:40 jcamins slef: I think dpavlin made more progress on that.
18:41 slef jcamins: not support for DELETE though, so I'm filing a new enh bug
18:44 jcamins slef: what is your use case, out of curiosity?
18:45 slef jcamins: document interchange system moving items in and out of Koha
18:46 jcamins slef: interesting. Do you have this system yet?
18:46 slef jcamins: not ours and not open AFAIK, sadly, but we do need Koha to interoperate with it to get it in there.
18:47 jcamins Tell them FOSS is the wave of the future, and they don't want to be left behind.
18:48 slef jcamins: I think they'll be convinced if we get Koha in there, but they've probably got as much fun in cleanup+release as we do on other things.
18:48 jcamins Heh.
18:49 jcamins I'm not saying one wants to release bad code, but I maintain that actually sharing bad code is better than not sharing the code because it's not "good" yet.
18:49 slef I mean licensing cleanup.
18:49 jcamins Ah.
18:50 slef Sometimes the two are related, such as when you don't know where some code has come from.

18:57 jcamins oleonard: on your way to Marseille?
18:57 jcamins :)
18:57 oleonard Got a few hours in Toronto to kill
18:58 oleonard Happy to see IRC isn't blocked by the wifi
18:58 jcamins I guess since you made it to Toronto you didn't forget your passport.
18:58 jcamins And if you have your passport, you really have everything you need.
18:59 oleonard I haven't had any panicked realizations yet
18:59 * oleonard wonders if it's accepted etiquette to bring a giant duty-free bottle of whiskey to a hackfest
19:00 jcamins oleonard: sure, why not?
19:02 * oleonard did have a moment of panic in the Columbus airport when it looked like his laptop wasn't booting up
19:02 oleonard Thankfully that seems not to be the case
19:07 jcamins oleonard: is your flight from Toronto direct?
19:07 oleonard There was a patch which proposed to offer more fine-grained control over how subject links worked
19:07 jcamins oleonard: you mean mine? :P
19:08 jcamins oleonard: BibLibre had a very cool tracings feature that was HTP-only.
19:08 oleonard I thought I remembered it being a Biblibre feature
19:08 jcamins oleonard: then you're thinking of the very cool tracings feature that hasn't been ported to TT.
19:08 oleonard The next leg of my trip is Toronto to Frankfurt, then to Marseille
19:11 jcamins I bet it could be redone using the XSLT.
19:12 oleonard Bug 5888?
19:12 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=5888 enhancement, PATCH-Sent (DO NOT USE), ---, julian.maurice, Failed QA , opac-detail subject/author links improvements
19:12 jcamins That sounds like the one.
19:13 jcamins Actually, I bet it could be done using only jQuery.
19:16 oleonard Maybe with the mythical menu module

19:41 wizzyrea yeap
19:42 jcamins Not in 3.6.3.
19:42 wizzyrea it does it on master
19:44 jcamins So it was probably sometime in the last month and a half.
19:46 sekjal who wants to do the git bisect?
19:46 * jcamins is cataloging.
19:49 sekjal bug 7408
19:49 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=7408 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, koha.sekjal, Pushed to Master , Expire holds that have been waiting too long
19:51 wizzyrea yea, that same thing probably broke it wonder if frederic's patch fixes it
19:51 wizzyrea guess we could check >>
19:51 wizzyrea it does, in fact, fix it
19:51 sekjal nice
19:52 sekjal which bug's the patch attached to?
19:52 wizzyrea 7408, at the bottom
19:52 wizzyrea i'm signing off on the "fixes the problem with local use" part, I can't verify if it fixes the translations
19:56 * jcamins looks forward to DOM indexing.
19:56 jcamins He'll be able to do a browse for "recipients of letters." :)
20:00 oleonard bbl
20:12 rangi hmmm lots of bywater signing off on bywater lately ..
20:13 rangi i hassled biblibre about that .. only fair i hassle bywater too
20:14 wizzyrea *nod*
20:14 chris_n yup
20:15 nengard others are welcome to sign off on our sign offs
20:15 nengard but i'm not gonna leave a patch untested if i know how to test it just cause a colleague wrote it
20:15 nengard and we're coming up on the feature freeze
20:15 nengard got to get these things tested
20:16 nengard but hassle away :)
20:16 rangi yep, i just dont think it counts as a signed off
20:16 rangi whats good for the goose etc
20:17 rangi there are guidelines for everybody, not just some
20:17 rangi so signing off is fine, nbut i dont think it can be marked signed off
20:18 bag but bywater is all about the community - I mean we're all community members first - right?
20:18 rangi yes, thats why we should all play the same game
20:18 bag so that's a silly statement rangi :)
20:19 rangi dude, there are guidelines
20:19 bag yeah I know - we do our best to follow them ;)
20:20 rangi exaclty, and lately, theres been a slip, im pointing it out, like i did when biblibre were signing off biblibre patches
20:20 nengard left #koha
20:20 rangi so you can get indiginant with me
20:20 rangi or you can reverse the slip
20:20 rangi choice is yours
20:21 bag oh rangi you scared away nengard
20:21 rangi shes a big girl :)
20:21 bag of course...
20:21 rangi she'll live :)
20:21 mbalmer I have an Intermec PF4i on my desk and we are thinking ways of using it in a library,
20:22 mbalmer media labels? patron cards/labels?
20:23 rangi spine labels?
20:23 mbalmer problematic..
20:24 sekjal according to the signoff and QA rules we discussed (and I *believe* agreed on), signoffs can come from people within the same company, but then QA must be done by someone outside the company
20:25 rangi it explicitly says preferably not from the same company
20:25 bag yeah sekjal you're probably right - but Ideally another company :)
20:25 sekjal right, the wider the set of eyes, the better
20:25 sekjal no argument there
20:26 rangi so was pointing out a lot of bywater ones are being signed off by bywater lately wrong, given i did the exact same thing for biblibre?
20:26 bag not at all - IE no that's not wrong
20:26 sekjal rangi:  I think it's a fair thing to point out
20:27 bag heh - I'll try another way …  NO
20:27 mbalmer hmm...
20:27 bag heh
20:27 rangi good just checking, cos i felt like i was being attached for it
20:27 mbalmer what is wrong with colleagues in the same company signing stuff off if they did their job of testing?
20:27 rangi nothing
20:28 rangi but its better if they get an external sign off too
20:28 mbalmer why, if they tested carefully?
20:28 wizzyrea sometimes people outside think a bit bigger picture than people who are just adding 123's for clients
20:28 bag cause we have had problems before :)
20:28 rangi im of the opinion everything should have an internal sign off before it gets submitted
20:28 sekjal cross-company signoffs are stronger, because there is less risk of conflict of interest.
20:29 sekjal there is a *chance*
20:29 rangi and hten an external one .. that would be sweet
20:29 sekjal *chance* that a company could be pushing their own agenda instead of the greater communities best interest
20:29 bag plus it promotes - company co-operation  - IE..  biblibre please help us out :)
20:29 rangi it also spreads the knowledge
20:29 rangi and what bag said
20:30 mbalmer easy enough to follow
20:30 bag basically IMO…  we had someone write the patch (submit to koha) and then someone here follows up (and tests - signs off whatevs)…  Then another should sign-off…
20:30 bag so it should stay in the NEEDS SIGNOFF stage
20:30 bag :)
20:31 rangi barring trivial patches i think that would work well
20:31 melia aren't you all saying the same thing?
20:31 rangi we are now
20:31 bag no melia I'm saying it better :)
20:31 bag HAHAHAHA
20:31 melia is there a particular bug in question that needs to have its status changed from signed off back to needs signoff?
20:32 bag the latest one has passed QA..  so no
20:32 melia ok. well if there is, I'll go change it. :)
20:32 * chris_n always thinks an orchestra sounds better in harmony ;-)
20:32 bag oh no I think I'm wrong
20:32 * bag starts vacation
20:32 rangi i dont think we need to change some back
20:32 wizzyrea just be aware :)
20:32 bag be well all you all - have THE fun
20:32 * chris_n heads home
20:32 rangi exactly
20:33 sekjal if we wanted to horribly overcomplicate things, we could come up with a system of 'points' associated with signoffs, and only after a patch has accumulated enough points does it advance to the next stage
20:33 sekjal game-ify it all a bit
20:33 rangi gerrit does exactly that
20:34 rangi its not actually that complicated either :)
20:34 melia I have heard good things about gerrit. (not a developer, so I'm not going to vote - just passing along the hearsay)
20:34 sekjal I'd be interested in learning more
20:35 sekjal I think we've done a lot to improve our processes in the last few years, but we can certainly refine further
20:35 sekjal git BZ was a godsend
20:35 wizzyrea holy wow, no kidding
20:35 sekjal then with git aliases...
20:35 sekjal git qa 7408
20:35 sekjal is all I have to type

20:36 wizzyrea my alias for "git com" is like, chorus of ahs
20:36 wizzyrea "git checkout master
20:36 wizzyrea "
20:36 wizzyrea look at all of that saved typing :P
20:37 rangi https://reviews.mahara.org/#/c/1087/
20:37 rangi hehe
20:41 * sekjal has 20 bugs in his QAQ... most of which are going to require a serious bit of testing
20:44 rangi hmm i only see 9?
20:44 rangi ah no, old search
21:00 sekjal hmm.... now that I'm into the XSLT from Amazon to MARC, I'm wondering if this is even a worthwhile endeavour
