Hi all. Can someone please give me some advice as to why my advanced messaging isn't working anymore - nothing has changed and has worked in the past months. I use this code in a terminal: sudo koha-foreach --enabled --email /usr/share/koha/bin/cronjobs/advance_notices.pl -itemscontent title,author,barcode -c |
| 00:40 |
|
Jurgens |
About 5 or so messages was sent when I used it but no more go - there should be about 60 going out I believe. I use koha 3.12 |
| 01:00 |
|
wizzyrea |
maybe because there isn't an = between itemscontent and title? |
| 01:00 |
|
wizzyrea |
and you may need two dashes before itemscontent |
| 01:01 |
|
wizzyrea |
sudo koha-foreach --enabled --email /usr/share/koha/bin/cronjobs/advance_notices.pl --itemscontent=title,author,barcode -c |
| 01:01 |

Jurgens |
Thanks Wizzy, I tried your command, but still nothing. |
| 01:10 |
|
wizzyrea |
do you have email enabled? |
| 01:11 |
|
wizzyrea |
if you do a koha-list --email is your instance listed? |
| 01:11 |
|
wizzyrea |
one thing that got me - was I did a koha-disable <instance>, then a koha-enable <instance> |
| 01:11 |
|
wizzyrea |
but email didn't come back |
| 01:11 |
|
wizzyrea |
(by design) |
| 01:11 |
|
wizzyrea |
so you have to koha-email-enable <instance> to make that go again |
| 01:12 |
|
eythian |
wizzyrea: actually, email will come back if you do that |
| 01:12 |
|
eythian |
however if a failure deletes /var, email won't come back after that :) |
| 01:12 |
|
wizzyrea |
oh right that was a different thing |
| 01:12 |
|
wizzyrea |
anyway, make sure it's enabled :P |
| 01:14 |
|
Jurgens |
Yes, its enalbed. I'm sending overdue messages just fine. |
| 01:14 |
|
Jurgens |
I am also making sure I'm running the process message queue as well. |
| 01:14 |
|
wahanui |
okay, Jurgens. |
| 01:15 |
|
wizzyrea |
do you actually have things coming due/advanced due? dates are correct and such? |
| 01:17 |
|
Jurgens |
Yeah, I have about 600 or so items due on Saturday, so I'm trying to send an advanced digest email. I've done this for the past two months with no issues. But now its like these messages are just ignored. On my mail client, it lists all the emails sent - so I can see if it was sent or not, the overdues are sent, but not the advanced ones. |
| 01:18 |
|
Jurgens |
By default all patrons have a 7 day digest email for advanced notices - is there an arguement I can use in the terminal to maybe change the day? Perhaps make it 5 or 4 days just to test. |
| 01:19 |
|
wizzyrea |
not that I'm aware of no. |
| 01:22 |
|
wizzyrea |
do you have the messages generated in the message queue? |
| 01:22 |
|
wizzyrea |
are they actually there? |
| 01:22 |

In my mailq there is nothing. |
| 01:24 |
|
wizzyrea |
not the mail queue - the table message_queue in the koha database |

| 01:26 |
|
wizzyrea |
ok, do all of the patrons *actually* have a 7 day digest for advanced notices, or did you set that in the patron categories and not apply it to the borrowers |
| 01:27 |
|
wizzyrea |
because if you didn't apply the defaults to existing borrowers, only new borrowers will have the defaults. |
| 01:28 |
|
Jurgens |
no messages in message queue. and yes all patrons have been set and updated to 7 day default using terminal. |
| 01:29 |
|
wizzyrea |
don't know then, I haven't heard of this problem sorry |

I was trying to show Shari examples of "discovery interfaces." |
| 02:53 |
|
jcamins |
And how they were trying to do some of what Biblionarrator does, and not succeeding. |
| 02:53 |
|
* dcook |
is intrigued |
| 02:53 |
|
jcamins |
You know what? It turns out most of them just gave up entirely. |
| 02:53 |
|
wizzyrea |
and you found one that works? oh. guess not. |
| 02:53 |
|
jcamins |
Making authority data useful? |
| 02:53 |
|
jcamins |
Bwahahahahaha |
| 02:53 |
|
jcamins |
^^ sorry, but that's clearly nuts |
| 02:54 |
|
wizzyrea |
clearly |
| 02:54 |

| 02:54 |
|
wizzyrea |
vufind :) |
| 02:54 |
|
wizzyrea |
naturally. |
| 02:56 |
|
jcamins |
I'd heard that Blacklight is better, but... |
| 02:56 |
|
jcamins |
There is certainly no evidence of that. |
| 02:56 |
|
wizzyrea |
blacklight has to be configured and stuff |
| 02:57 |
|
wizzyrea |
to be good. |
| 02:57 |
|
wizzyrea |
discovery layers aren't really for adding value |
| 02:57 |
|
wizzyrea |
they are for finding things across many sources |
| 02:57 |
|
jcamins |
Sure, if you offer some sort of federated search. |
| 02:58 |
|
jcamins |
If you don't offer federated search, but call it an "improved discovery experience," I expect to see improvement. |
| 02:58 |
|
* wizzyrea |
has never seen one that didn't have to do with a library wanting a zillion different sources of records pulled together into one interfacve |
| 02:58 |
|
jcamins |
Really? |
| 02:58 |
|
wahanui |
Really is off now |
| 02:58 |
|
wizzyrea |
and having them show up in one result set. But that's kind of the problem with a term like "discovery layer" |
| 02:58 |
|
jcamins |
One moment. |
| 02:59 |
|
wizzyrea |
it's highly dependent on your definition of discovery. |
| 02:59 |
|
wizzyrea |
it's not a real term, it's a marketing term |
| 02:59 |
|
jcamins |
I know. |
| 02:59 |
|
wizzyrea |
and an irritating one, at that. |
| 02:59 |
|
eythian |
just start calling them "invisibility cloaks" then |
| 02:59 |
|
wizzyrea |
^ |
| 02:59 |
|
eythian |
it's kinda the opposite thing... |
| 03:00 |
|
jcamins |
I'm actually not interested in discovery layers per se, but at least in principle some of them offer the possibility of making use of authority records, etc. |
| 03:00 |
|
wizzyrea |
...you're kind of proving my thesis here. |
| 03:00 |
|
jcamins |
Which is that discovery layers are all crap? |
| 03:00 |
|
jcamins |
I think that's derivative from my thesis that discovery layers are all crap. :P |
| 03:01 |
|
dcook |
I think that's the dominate opinion |
| 03:01 |
|
wizzyrea |
no, that this discovery layer thing doesn't have anything to do with discovering anything about materials except "where to get it" |
| 03:01 |
|
* dcook |
would love to see authority records used to their potential. |
| 03:01 |
|
jcamins |
dcook: there does seem to be a remarkable lack of people finding value in discovery layers, doesn't there? |
| 03:01 |
|
dcook |
I was doing a course on taxonomies and I was rather sad at how the taxonomy that authorities represent is woefully underused |
| 03:02 |
|
wizzyrea |
and yet - we encourage user taxonomies in the form of tags |
| 03:03 |
|
dcook |
wizzyrea: What would you like to see in terms of discovery? |
| 03:03 |
|
dcook |
As for user taxonomies...I really wish I remembered the readings I did about them last year :p. While I think they can be useful to a degree, I'm not sure how useful they actually are |
| 03:04 |
|
wizzyrea |
the sorts of things like amazon does - people who read this author also read this other author/subject |
| 03:04 |
|
dcook |
Well, depending...some websites do it well, but I'm not sure about libraries |
| 03:04 |
|
wizzyrea |
a cataloger thinks this subject is related |
| 03:04 |
|
wizzyrea |
you might too |
| 03:04 |
|
wizzyrea |
sort of thing |
| 03:04 |
|
wizzyrea |
koha does quite a few of those things |
| 03:04 |
|
wizzyrea |
now if it could do it across several sources |
| 03:04 |
|
wizzyrea |
we'd be golden. |
| 03:04 |
|
dcook |
Mmm, that could be nice |
| 03:04 |
|
jcamins |
Once we jettisoned MARC. |
| 03:04 |
|
dcook |
Several sources? |
| 03:05 |
|
wizzyrea |
ebsco, gale |
| 03:05 |
|
wizzyrea |
for instance |
| 03:05 |
|
wizzyrea |
articles |
| 03:05 |
|
wizzyrea |
ebook suppliers |
| 03:05 |
|
wizzyrea |
overdrive |
| 03:05 |
|
wahanui |
overdrive is, like, going to expire that book |
| 03:05 |
|
wizzyrea |
forget overdrive |
| 03:05 |
|
wahanui |
wizzyrea: I forgot overdrive |
| 03:05 |
|
dcook |
I haven't looked into that too much at this point, but I think that gets tougher |
| 03:05 |
|
wizzyrea |
i wish I could forget overdrive |
| 03:05 |
|
wizzyrea |
overdrive is evil. |
| 03:05 |
|
wizzyrea |
overdrive? |
| 03:05 |
|
wahanui |
hmmm... overdrive is evil. |
| 03:05 |
|
wizzyrea |
there, that seems right. |
| 03:06 |
|
dcook |
Well put, wahanui |
| 03:06 |
|
wahanui |
dcook: excuse me? |
| 03:06 |
|
* dcook |
scowls |
| 03:06 |
|
wizzyrea |
well all of that more or less depends on good, linkable metadata eh? |
| 03:06 |
|
dcook |
I think access to the metadata becomes an issue |
| 03:06 |
|
dcook |
Mmm yeah |
| 03:06 |
|
dcook |
I'm not sure how keen publishers are on that either |
| 03:07 |
|
wizzyrea |
i think if they want people to find their stuff, they should be super keen. |
| 03:07 |
|
dcook |
When I worked in law, it seemed like every publisher was extremely reluctant to give you any data |
| 03:07 |
|
dcook |
It was "use our portal or nothing!" |
| 03:07 |
|
wizzyrea |
otherwise... how will people find it |
| 03:07 |
|
wizzyrea |
oh god the law databases are EEEEVIL. |
| 03:07 |
|
dcook |
Depends on the publisher |
| 03:07 |
|
dcook |
In some cases, they know they have the market share |
| 03:07 |
|
wizzyrea |
law in general. |
| 03:07 |
|
dcook |
hehe |
| 03:07 |
|
dcook |
I quite liked law :p |
| 03:07 |
|
wizzyrea |
especially - oh what's the one... jjj something |
| 03:07 |
|
dcook |
I thought about doing my JD/LLB |
| 03:07 |
|
wizzyrea |
jstor? |
| 03:08 |
|
dcook |
j? |
| 03:08 |
|
wizzyrea |
Lexis Nexis! that does not begin with a J |
| 03:08 |
|
dcook |
That might be more America specific |
| 03:08 |
|
dcook |
Mmm |
| 03:08 |
|
wizzyrea |
but that. |
| 03:08 |
|
wizzyrea |
yes, it's probably americacentric |
| 03:08 |
|
dcook |
Yeah, LexisNexis was a bit... |
| 03:08 |
|
jcamins |
lol No, no 'j'. |
| 03:08 |
|
dcook |
Their Halsbury's database wasn't too bad |
| 03:08 |
|
dcook |
Quicklaw |
| 03:08 |
|
dcook |
Quicklaw was all right |
| 03:08 |
|
* jcamins |
calls it a night. |
| 03:08 |
|
jcamins |
Good night, #koha. |
| 03:08 |
|
dcook |
night, jcamins! |
| 03:08 |
|
eythian |
but it's not |
| 03:08 |
|
wizzyrea |
later :0 |
| 03:09 |
|
eythian |
it's the afternoon |
| 03:09 |
|
dcook |
Wait...yeah! |
| 03:09 |
|
eythian |
you can't call the afternoon a night, weirdo |
| 03:09 |
|
dcook |
It's only 1pm! |
| 03:09 |
|
wizzyrea |
a very cold night. |
| 03:09 |
|
wizzyrea |
afternoon. |
| 03:09 |
|
dcook |
The thing was though...if Quicklaw and Westlaw had solid APIs, it would be so much easier to access their content |
| 03:10 |
|
wizzyrea |
ebsco is supposed to be doing an open API? |
| 03:10 |
|
wizzyrea |
because they were getting sued by someone... |
| 03:10 |
|
wizzyrea |
Ex Libris, I think. |
| 03:10 |
|
dcook |
I'm intrigued |
| 03:10 |
|
wizzyrea |
dunno, we have peeps at a meeting about it. |
| 03:10 |
|
wizzyrea |
<watch this space> |
| 03:10 |
|
dcook |
No doubt. That would be great |
| 03:11 |
|
dcook |
Much better than periodic MARC dumps |
| 03:11 |

| 03:11 |
|
wizzyrea |
I do like about getit.library.nyu.edu is the "send/share" area |
| 03:11 |
|
wizzyrea |
koha should put it that way |
| 03:11 |
|
wizzyrea |
i don't mean the function, koha does that. |
| 03:11 |
|
wizzyrea |
i mean the terminology |
| 03:12 |
|
wizzyrea |
it's not "export" |
| 03:12 |
|
wizzyrea |
or "download" |
| 03:12 |
|
dcook |
Hmm, not sure I'm seeing that on the website |
| 03:12 |
|
dcook |
But I get your point |
| 03:12 |
|
dcook |
Terminology definitely matters |
| 03:12 |
|
wizzyrea |
https://getit.library.nyu.edu/go/7674801 |
| 03:13 |
|
wizzyrea |
on the right |
| 03:13 |
|
wizzyrea |
and LOOK at that minimal display. |
| 03:13 |
|
wizzyrea |
no physical description - nobody gives a crap about that but cataloguers |
| 03:14 |
|
dcook |
Hmm |
| 03:15 |
|
wizzyrea |
https://github.com/team-umlaut/umlaut |
| 03:15 |
|
dcook |
Yeah, I just opened that up |
| 03:15 |
|
dcook |
I keep meaning to look at Ruby... |
| 03:15 |
|
dcook |
Looks like it's especially made for Primo though? |
| 03:15 |
|
dcook |
Or maybe just has a Primo add-on.. |
| 03:15 |
|
wizzyrea |
blacklight is ruby also |
| 03:16 |
|
dcook |
Vufind is PHP? |
| 03:16 |
|
wizzyrea |
yea |
| 03:16 |
|
dcook |
I already know PHP so I might end up looking at that first, but good to know.. |
| 03:17 |
|
eythian |
keep in mind that PHP causes brain damage if taken in more than miniscule doses. |
| 03:17 |
|
dcook |
When it comes to the display...it would be nice if libraries were able to handle more of their own config |
| 03:17 |
|
eythian |
It's pretty much a gateway to PCP and meth and stuff. |
| 03:17 |
|
wizzyrea |
this NYU interface has some stupidities. |
| 03:17 |
|
dcook |
Librarians do care about physical description, but there should be an easy way of defining a public interface with just the essentials |
| 03:17 |
|
wizzyrea |
we have librarians mucking about with xslt |
| 03:17 |
|
dcook |
Right, but that's not so easy |
| 03:17 |
|
wizzyrea |
unfortunately they put in MORE not LESS |
| 03:17 |
|
dcook |
Mmm, I could see that |
| 03:18 |
|
dcook |
That's the trend here as well |
| 03:18 |
|
wizzyrea |
see ALL THE THINGS |
| 03:18 |
|
dcook |
I think library schools need a few more "user experience" courses... |
| 03:18 |
|
dcook |
eythian: :p |
| 03:18 |
|
dcook |
I suppose I'm torn between wanting to give librarians nice UIs and making them get their hands dirty |
| 03:18 |
|
dcook |
As a librarian, I like getting my hands dirty |
| 03:18 |
|
dcook |
But I know many who don't.. |
| 03:19 |
|
dcook |
Mind you, perhaps they need to get with the times if they are going to keep the profession relevant |
| 03:19 |
|
dcook |
I wonder what users really want though... |
| 03:19 |
|
dcook |
I mean...I'm a library user |
| 03:19 |
|
dcook |
Err...I used to be |
| 03:19 |
|
dcook |
What did I want? |
| 03:20 |
|
wizzyrea |
to find the thing |
| 03:20 |
|
dcook |
Usually a known quantity? |
| 03:20 |
|
wizzyrea |
maybe to find things like the thing. |
| 03:20 |
|
dcook |
Usually I look for books that I know I want |
| 03:20 |
|
dcook |
Maybe |
| 03:20 |
|
dcook |
Or is that something better handled by a thing like Goodreads |
| 03:20 |
|
dcook |
Too bad about the Amazon sale.. |
| 03:20 |
|
wizzyrea |
I trust my local library to keep that data safer than a commercial entity. |
| 03:21 |
|
dcook |
Mmm, true that |
| 03:21 |
|
wizzyrea |
haha I just mistyped librains |
| 03:21 |
|
dcook |
Although like rangi was saying the other day, it would be nice to have a centralized repository |
| 03:21 |
|
dcook |
hehe |
| 03:21 |
|
wizzyrea |
yes, extremely that |
| 03:21 |
|
wizzyrea |
would love to figure out a way to fund that. |
| 03:21 |
|
dcook |
I would love to store my reading lists and such on a Koha repo |
| 03:21 |
|
dcook |
Mmm, agreed |
| 03:22 |
|
dcook |
As it is, I'm already juggling developing 3 different systems |
| 03:22 |
|
dcook |
And I probably put in some of the least amount of time out of the active developers |
| 03:22 |
|
dcook |
You know...just including work hours and a few after-work hours here and there |
| 03:23 |
|
dcook |
I don't know where other people find the time |
| 03:23 |
|
dcook |
(or money) |
| 03:26 |
|
dcook |
Lovin' Libreoffice's command-line PDFing tools! |
| 03:28 |
|
wizzyrea |
why is the intranet result xslt so... weird. |
| 03:28 |
|
dcook |
? |
| 03:28 |
|
wizzyrea |
it's squashed |
| 03:35 |
|

The display or the file? |
| 03:37 |
|
wizzyrea |
the display |
| 03:37 |
|
wahanui |
i think the display is even a little nicer with the CSS. |
| 03:38 |
|
dcook |
What he said? |
| 03:38 |
|
wizzyrea |
it only takes up about 2/3 of the space available to it? |
| 03:38 |
|
wizzyrea |
width wise? |
| 03:43 |
|
dcook |
Do you have a link? |
| 03:44 |
|
eythian |
alas, Koha doesn't support 774 for analytics. |
| 03:45 |
|
dcook |
*sadface* |
| 03:47 |
|
dcook |
eythian: While I know it's the fashion to bash PHP, what language(s) would you support? |
| 03:48 |
|
dcook |
Also, recently I've been thinking about whitespace discrepancies that come up in Koha from time to time...would that be brutal for Python programs? |
| 03:48 |
|
eythian |
dcook: it's not so much the fashion, it's just that it's actually an objectively bad language in almost all ways. |
| 03:48 |
|
eythian |
dcook: no, because in python programs those problems would be bugs, and so wouldn't (ideally) have got in there in the first place. |
| 03:48 |
|
dcook |
Lots of things are objectively bad, but they're not necessarily invoked with as much passion as anti-PHP sentiments |
| 03:48 |
|
dcook |
Not that I'm defending it |
| 03:48 |
|
dcook |
I just use it |
| 03:49 |
|
dcook |
I'm pretty language agnostic |
| 03:49 |
|
dcook |
eythian: Interesting. Seems like that would be a barrier to newbs though. |
| 03:49 |
|
eythian |
why? |
| 03:50 |
|
eythian |
I mean, the whitespace is part of the syntax |
| 03:50 |
|
dcook |
If they kept introducing bugs without knowing why |
| 03:50 |
|
eythian |
it's like saying that { } is a barrier |
| 03:50 |
|
dcook |
Except that different editors handle whitespace differently |
| 03:50 |
|
dcook |
Not so much with curly brackets |
| 03:50 |
|
eythian |
dcook: not when doing python they don't |
| 03:50 |
|
wizzyrea |
popcorn? |
| 03:50 |
|
wahanui |
popcorn is a vital part of any work day. |
| 03:50 |
|
wizzyrea |
get the popcorn? |
| 03:50 |

| 03:50 |
|
dcook |
O_o |
| 03:50 |
|
eythian |
because if they did, they'd be a bad python editor :) |
| 03:51 |
|
dcook |
lol |
| 03:51 |
|
wizzyrea |
more popcorn? |
| 03:51 |
|
dcook |
But I repeat the question, what languages are you a fan of, eythian? |
| 03:52 |
|
eythian |
I'm mostly happy with Perl. I should properly learn Python one day. LISP is fun for what it's good for. Smalltalk is easy and it sucks it's not popular. |
| 03:52 |
|
eythian |
That's a very broad question really |
| 03:53 |
|
dcook |
Hmm, that's true |
| 03:53 |
|
dcook |
I guess preferences become a bit irrelevant in some (if not many) cases anyway |
| 03:54 |
|
dcook |
In the work context, I use whatever language I have to use to develop the system I'm being paid to develop |
| 03:54 |
|
dcook |
At home, well, I don't have time for that at the moment.. |

mtj |
"The MARC21 standard is represented only by an online text, something that is rather astonishing if you think about it. Anyone wishing to develop applications for MARC21 must create their own usable version. My own database still lacks definitions and descriptions, and those will probably need to be added by screen-scraping hundreds of screens from the LC web site." |

Is anyone about who is deeply familiar with self checkout? |
| 09:10 |
|
kf |
hi BobB |
| 09:10 |
|
kf |
do you mean the web based one or over sip? |
| 09:10 |
|
BobB |
hi kf, the web based one |
| 09:10 |
|
BobB |
I can't see how to return an item? |
| 09:11 |
|
BobB |
Borrow: tick, Renew: tick, Return: huh? |
| 09:11 |
|
kf |
hm have you activated returns? |
| 09:11 |
|
BobB |
and the manual and help page do not document it, as far as I can see |
| 09:11 |
|
kf |
i think there is a separate switch to activate that |
| 09:12 |
|
kf |
which version are you looking at? |
| 09:12 |
|
BobB |
The sys pref? Yes. |
| 09:12 |
|
BobB |
3.10 |
| 09:12 |
|
BobB |
sorry, 3.10.4 |
| 09:12 |
|
kf |
hm |
| 09:12 |
|
kf |
our libraries are not using it |
| 09:12 |
|
BobB |
That's what I said. |
| 09:12 |
|
kf |
but i am trying to come up with some ideas |
| 09:12 |
|
BobB |
:) |
| 09:13 |
|
kf |
let me take a look |
| 09:13 |
|
kf |
ok, so AllowSelfCheckReturns is turned on? |
| 09:14 |
|
kf |
have you treid to turn it on and off again? (i had cases that helped to reset the database column to the right value) |
| 09:17 |
|
kf |
hm in my tests i can't check out anything |
| 09:17 |
|
BobB |
I expected an extra button with that sys pref on, but don't see it. |
| 09:17 |
|
BobB |
Let me confirm. |
| 09:18 |
|
kf |
BobB: you are right, there is no reutn button :( |
| 09:19 |
|
BobB |
yeah, I turned the sys pref off and on again, refreshed the page, and still no return facility. |
| 09:20 |
|
BobB |
Bug perhaps. |
| 09:20 |
|
kf |
i tried both settingsnow |
| 09:20 |
|
kf |
no change |
| 09:20 |
|
kf |
yeah |
| 09:20 |
|
kf |
i was going to look at the template to see where weshould see it |
| 09:20 |
|
BobB |
cool, ok |

|
kf |
http://git.koha-community.org/[…]2aa34d606633#l152 |

i think probably something with the if check is wrong |
| 09:23 |
|
BobB |

| 09:24 |
|
BobB |
But I'll do it after dinner - fading quickly just now |
| 09:25 |
|
kf |
hope it's something easy |
| 09:25 |
|
kf |
<fieldset><legend> Check out[% IF ( AllowSelfCheckReturns ) %], return[% END %] or renew an item: </legend> < this shows rght for me saying return |
| 09:26 |
|
BobB |
I'll open a bug and get mtj to look at it later. Thanks kf! |
| 09:26 |

Here's a question... why isn't Facebook fully responsive? |
| 12:34 |
|
oleonard |
Probably because they want to drive people to their mobile app which gives them more opportunities to slurp up personal data. |
| 12:34 |

Hmmm... fair enough. |

Debian Wheezy is out and my System Admin wants to know, if or when Koha will support it. I have installed Debian Wheezy, installed tinymce2, added the koha-squeeze main repo and everything installed on a VM. Though, that's not quite what he wants, I think. ;-) |
| 15:43 |
|
jcamins |
JoeLib001: that's all there is to it. |

Will there be an "official" koha wheezy repo any time soon? |

I don't know if there are any plans to change "squeeze" to "wheezy" since "squeeze" does not mean anything in the context of Koha. |

Figured it out. |
| 18:58 |

I set the expiration to negative. |
| 18:58 |

Apparently that's the only way to do it. |

|
pianohacker |
jcamins: Yeah, that's the method I know |
| 18:59 |
|
jcamins |
pianohacker: we're using jquery.cookie, which talks about a removeCookie method, but I can't find any evidence of it or anything other than simply expiring the cookie anywhere. |

Oh, then just create a new system preference: opacusercssoverride :P |

No, that wouldn't work. |

Right, because you'd have to add a new one: opacusercssoverrideoverride just in case |
| 19:36 |

thinking on cross-ils APIs again, is koha more/less expressive than "ready for pickup" and "total" with regard to holds, or with regard to circs/checkouts, does out/claims-returned/long-overdue/overdue/lost/total logically map to koha? |

|
jeff |
got it. well, in that case then it would always be absent / zero, i suppose! |

As for holds, you can look at a list of what items a patron has on hold. |

For those that don't follow it, that library system is a (USA) pioneer on self-hosting ebooks. I was wondering how they might have integrated them into their ILS. |

might be worth looking in libwebcats |

for future reference, if you are configuring targets in pazpar2 completely through the webservice, you have to set the pz:name setting |

My state (Missouri) is apparently ready to follow in their footsteps, and set up a state-wide "owned" ebook solution. |

nothing else seems to be required, but that's a very important undocumented requirement... |

Well, no. Both Douglas County and (apparently) MO are emphasizing the problem of licensing, and the desire to serve DRM-free content. |

rhcl: Doesn't douglas county use overdrive? Their site points at that |
| 22:39 |

and they do "own" the titles, although with the licensing restrictions in place. This really does "replace" Overdrive |
| 22:40 |

I can forward an email with links if anyone is interested. |
| 22:40 |

they no more own them than they did with overdrive |

they are renting |

With overdrive they were clearly term-limited and licensed. With the "owned" instances the books never expire, they sit firmly on your servers. |

are there likely to be any bad effects from zapping the sessions table (aside from logging everyone out?) |
| 22:57 |

eythian: disappointed data miners, perhaps |
| 22:57 |
|
eythian |
gmcharlt: that sounds like a plus :) |
| 22:57 |
|
gmcharlt |
heh |
| 22:57 |
|
eythian |
this is just for a test system anyway |
| 22:58 |
|
wizzyrea |

eythian: nope. No bad effects. |

wizzyrea: why do you think the data miners have been disapoointed for years at this point? ;) |

it does, though I think it only deletes ones that are a couple of days old (not sure of the specifics) |
| 22:59 |
|
jcamins |
Wow. That is some pretty damn tasty flatbread. |
| 22:59 |
|
wizzyrea |
you must send me the recipe please |
| 22:59 |
|
jcamins |
eythian: it's supposed to be > a couple days old. |
| 22:59 |
|
eythian |

wizzyrea: it's the semolina recipe in Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day, rolled out flat, rubbed with basil olive oil, sprinkled with rosemary, mozzarella, and broken cashews. |

|
wizzyrea |
ohh |

I'm trying to reduce the amount of time I spend on baking while increasing the amount of deliciousness. |
| 23:01 |
|
jcamins |
Therefore I am giving Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day a serious try. |
| 23:06 |
|
jcamins |
And the dough is from... |
| 23:06 |

There are some challenges to putting the finishing touches on an application that uses app cache. |
| 23:32 |
|
jcamins |
Change the code... nothing happens... shift-refresh... no change... alt-refresh... nothing... shift-alt-refresh... no... oh yeah! app cache... log out... log back in... get told to refresh the page... code has changed. |
