01:53 wizzyrea tcohen++ for being very funny
02:14 dcook Hmm I thought there was a ".success" in bootstrap...
02:14 dcook And I thought we were using bootstrap in the staff client..
02:15 dcook Ahh maybe that's just for tables..
02:15 dcook Do we have anything for indicating a good result?
02:19 dcook Interesting...
02:19 wahanui well, interesting is sometimes good and sometimes bad
02:20 dcook It doesn't look like the bootstrap.min.css in the staff client is the real one...
02:20 dcook For one, it's not really that minified..
02:21 dcook Maybe Koha just couldn't handle it all..

03:53 dcook Hmm...
03:53 dcook Yeah, I think it's definitely a bug in 3.14 that adds "collection" to the OAI-PMH response..
03:53 dcook But I don't see where :S
03:54 dcook Or is it my fault?
03:54 dcook That seems more likely :p
03:56 dcook Yeah... about 99% sure it was my idiocy on that one
03:57 mtj hey dcook, a nice idea re: .success class ^
03:57 dcook thanks :)
03:57 dcook There should alreayd be a ".text-success" class with Bootstrap
03:57 dcook But it doesn't look like we use the full thing in the staff client, alas
03:58 barton|away joined #koha
03:58 mtj ah, ok... its a new area for me
03:58 dcook I sent out an email about it :)
03:58 dcook I'm pretty new to Bootstrap as well.
03:58 dcook Except when it comes to IE 7 O_O
03:59 dcook Especially with Bootstrap 3. Then I'm familiar...
03:59 * dcook grumbles about IE
03:59 dcook Turns out MARC::Record->as_xml and MARC::Record->as_xml_record are quite different methods... silly dcook...
03:59 * dcook wouldn't assume that as_xml() would use a collection wrapper, but there you go. Pays to do more tests and read between the lines in the docs
04:00 mario_ joined #koha
04:02 mtj aah, nice option :)
04:03 mtj i have been trying to follow your PMH progress on irc, dcook :)
04:04 dcook Oh?
04:04 dcook I think I might have something to post later today :)
04:04 mtj its something im a bit curious about... it seems useful :p
04:04 dcook I'm not super happy with it... but that's why one seeks feedback!
04:04 dcook yeah, in theory it should be useful :)
04:04 dcook It originated in 2013 when we wanted to find betters ways of getting records from DSpace into Koha
04:04 mtj aaaah
04:04 dcook But there's been more interest in using it to get MARC records into Koha from other MARC systems
04:05 dcook Like union catalogues and cataloguing software
04:05 mtj im keen to take a look at your stuff, signoff.. etc :)
04:05 dcook :D
04:05 dcook Lovely to hear :)
04:05 dcook I'm most keen to get feedback on the user interface, and the import mechanism
04:06 dcook Well, more so the UI
04:06 mtj woo, sounds nice
04:06 dcook Oh, it's awful, haha
04:06 dcook Functional is probably a kind description
04:07 dcook Beating myself up about it not being good enough actually :/
04:07 mtj did you pinch code from the 'bib import' feature?
04:07 dcook So I really should post it so that people can improve it
04:07 dcook Nah
04:07 dcook Originally, yes
04:07 dcook But it was too unwieldy
04:07 * mtj would have :p
04:07 dcook hehe
04:07 dcook I still might go that route to be honest
04:07 dcook I didn't like the idea of people being able to manually un-import things though
04:08 dcook Or selectively un-import, re-import, etc
04:08 dcook As it could cause harvesting problems
04:08 mtj yep, sure... it gets tricky huh
04:08 dcook So I pretty much hard-coded it in
04:08 mtj keep it stupid, for starters :)
04:08 dcook That was my thought as well. Hehe
04:09 dcook I don't want to give people rope to hang themselves
04:09 mtj s/stupid/simple/
04:09 dcook That reminds me that I need to double-check a problem..
04:10 dcook I hope that once I get the code out there that other people will get more involved as well
04:10 dcook I kind of like having it as my baby, but it's a lot of responsibility :S
04:10 dcook Or rather...
04:10 mtj hey #koha, has anyone got a good example of an 'atomic update' patch?
04:10 dcook I rather have more eyes on it than just mine
04:10 dcook I don't have enough data to make it good enough
04:10 dcook Anyway, I'll stop jabbering. Hopefully end of today I'll have something up
04:12 dcook Actually, this one will be :)
04:12 dcook Here's what I wrote:
04:12 dcook installer/data/mysql/atomicupdate/bug_1066​2-Build_OAI-PMH_Harvesting_Client_tables.sql
04:13 pastebot "dcook" at 127.0.0.1 pasted "OAI atomic update" (51 lines) at http://paste.koha-community.org/60
04:13 dcook mtj: ^
04:15 mtj nice dcook
04:22 dcook Hmm... now do I want to decide the metadata with the OAI wrapper or not..
04:22 dcook It would be easier without it..
04:50 dcook It would be nice if we had somewhere for XSLTs other than the intrahtdocs...

05:09 putti Good morning! :)
05:16 * magnuse waves
05:18 * putti waves back !
05:24 * dcook seems to have problems around the time that magnuse gets up in the morning :p
05:24 dcook Coincidence? I don't know...
05:49 dcook Blah...
05:50 dcook XML::LibXSLT... why are you removing the encoding...:S
05:53 dcook Ahh, because I'm a dummy
05:57 hyvaria joined #koha
05:57 newbie|2 joined #koha
05:57 dcook magnuse: Maybe your arrival coincides not with the problems but with the solutions...
05:57 dcook Btw, the <collection> thing I was facing yesterday... totally my fault
05:57 dcook Not a mainstream 3.14 thing. I was using "as_xml" rather than "as_xml_record" on our modified OAI server
05:57 * dcook facepalm
05:57 wahanui facepalm is a tiny member of the Arecaceae family whose preference for warm, humid environments makes it a perfect choice for cultivation in the human nasal cavity.
06:01 cait joined #koha
06:13 Viktor_meeting joined #koha
06:28 magnuse dcook: i am a bringer of both problems and solutions - just to make your day more interesting ;-)
06:29 dcook hehe
06:29 dcook Only 30 minutes left in my day!
06:29 dcook So looking forward to tonight's beer
06:29 dcook I was hoping to finish the first draft of this OAI thing today but I don't think it's going to happen
06:29 dcook Let's see though!
06:29 * dcook focuses

06:44 alex_a bonjour
06:49 putti Hi.. Do we have any other database tool than schema.koha-community.org? Something where one can search for table and column names / descriptions
06:52 alex_a_ joined #koha
06:55 magnuse putti: there's always the source code, but schema.k-c is probably your best bet
06:56 putti okay
06:56 kivilahtio maybe we could have the schemaspy generate a pdf?
06:56 kivilahtio I think it does
06:57 kivilahtio putti: you can generate it yourself with schemaspy
06:57 kivilahtio putti: if making searching for keywords is what you need
06:57 putti I think many people need that
06:58 kivilahtio putti: maybe. You can always write a cookbook recipe to the kohawiki on how to generate stuff with schemaspy
06:58 magnuse but does schemaspy include any info that is not in kohastructure.sql? why not just search that file?
06:59 kivilahtio magnuse: good point :)
06:59 kivilahtio magnuse: schemaspy might have better syntax for human reading, but difference in miniscule
07:01 ashimema morning..
07:01 ashimema kivi.. was that presentation really for me..
07:02 ashimema all about updatedatabase?
07:02 ashimema kivilahtio
07:02 wahanui i guess kivilahtio is working to integrate our SMS provider to Koha
07:02 ashimema just reading it now anyways..
07:03 kivilahtio ashimema: heh, not really, no. But since you hapened to be there on the very same moment...
07:03 * ashimema notes he uses DBIx::Class::DeploymentHandler in his latest apps for doing this sort of thing.. so it's likely that's what he'll compare to ;)
07:03 ashimema hehe.. I'll have  aread anyways.. looks interesting ;)
07:03 kivilahtio ashimema: I will take a look at deploymenthandler
07:04 ashimema it's a challenge to get your head around to start with to be fair..
07:04 kivilahtio maybe what I did was all pointless
07:04 kivilahtio I hope so :)
07:04 ashimema but it does lead to some beautiful upgrades/downgrades
07:05 ashimema deployment handler utilises a bunch of the dbic underlying stuff to build the basic upgrade/downgrade paths for you automagically.. but it also adds in allot of framework to allow you to write custom additions to the migration paths..
07:05 dcook Ok, I'm oout
07:05 dcook later magnuse
07:05 dcook and co :)
07:06 ashimema for instance, my favourites, perl scripts during migration that can use dynamically built dbic classes.
07:06 kivilahtio dcook: bye!
07:06 ashimema see ya dcook.. long time no chat.
07:07 ashimema does running atomicupdate.pl already do something clever to not apply already applied updates?
07:07 kivilahtio ashimema: Well do let me know if I could rewrite the internals to utilize DBIx::Class::DeploymentHandler
07:08 kivilahtio ashimema: problem is that I don't think the DBIx really works that well yet with our DB upgrade process
07:08 ashimema or are you just assuming your updates are written of the form that will mean they don't apply if already applied.. like ALTER IGNORE and the likes?
07:08 Joubu Bonjour #koha
07:08 ashimema dbic deffo isn't all that nice with our system yet..
07:08 kivilahtio ashimema: the AtomicUpdater takes care not to apply same updates twice
07:09 ashimema Joubu.. will grab you later for a chat.. didn't mean to offend with my koha::object comments.
07:09 ashimema awesome.. I've not played with it all that much yet :)
07:09 kivilahtio ashimema: we have some very complex update scripts, which need some perl scripting to transform data. Thus we cannot simply depend on SQL checks
07:09 dcook miss you, ashimema! We'll have to chat one of these days!
07:09 * dcook goes for real now
07:09 ashimema how does AtomicUpdater 'know' if an atomic update has already been applied.. do you have to makr the sql scripts somehow.. If so i'm sure we're getting it wrong here at ptfs at the minute ;)
07:10 ashimema :)
07:10 ashimema hugs dcook :)
07:10 kivilahtio ashimema: there is a koha.atomicupdates -table
07:10 kivilahtio ashimema: that stores the ISsue identifier, eg. Bug73432
07:10 ashimema ooh.. shiny.. hadn't noticed that
07:10 ashimema coolios..
07:11 kivilahtio ashimema: the Issue identifier prefix is configurable, so you can use you internal ticketing system tags as well
07:11 kivilahtio like we have in our Jira KD-54
07:11 kivilahtio or our new Redmine with Koha SSO, :)    #54
07:12 gaetan_B joined #koha
07:12 kivilahtio ashimema: check out the atomicupdate.pl -script to see the available options. There is are the test cases
07:12 gaetan_B hello
07:12 kivilahtio to show how to use the internal API functions

07:45 magnuse what was that like?
07:46 paul_p magnuse winter ;-) (24°C during the day, but less than 10° at night)
07:46 kivilahtio probably too epic
07:46 magnuse sounds lovely
07:46 paul_p magnuse outside from that, it was an awesome experience. Will publish photos soon ;-)

12:50 tcohen @later tell eythian packages should build on wheezy now
12:50 huginn tcohen: The operation succeeded.
12:51 magnuse hiya ashimema and tcohen
12:51 tcohen hi magnuse
12:51 andreashm I spent last night reading up on the last dev meeting, about the REST API. Interesting stuff.
12:52 andreashm Also, tcohen, I found your stuff on Koha:RecordProcessor and Koha:MetadataRecord interesting!
12:52 tcohen andreashm: great
12:52 andreashm I'm I correct in understanding that this would help Koha use other metadata schemas than marc?
12:53 tcohen andreashm: that's the whole point, and refactoring the code on a step-by-step basis, into a more sane codebase
12:53 andreashm woho!
12:53 andreashm tcohen++
12:54 tcohen Joubu: good afternoon
12:54 wahanui the only good  time in the afternoon is beer o'clock
12:57 NateC joined #koha
12:58 Joubu heh :) A bit early for a beer
12:58 tcohen heh
12:58 magnuse 3pm? nah...
12:58 tcohen Joubu: do u remember who tested moving koha-conf.xml stuff into YAML?
12:58 * magnuse doesn't drink beer at all
12:59 Joubu tcohen: hum, not really
12:59 tcohen i was thinking about the idea of having an instance-registry, with creation information for Koha instances
13:00 tcohen and remembered someone did tests on removing the config section from the XML file
13:00 tcohen (it doesn't really belong there, as it is the zebra configuration file)
13:01 tcohen anyway

13:42 tcohen hi mtompset
13:43 mtompset tcohen: I don't understand how you are suggesting changing the loop.
13:43 mtompset Because I want to run the loop.
13:43 tcohen what is the point if the deps are not met?
13:44 tcohen lets start over
13:44 tcohen what do u want to do?
13:44 mtompset I want to test offsets of 0 to 23 hours, but I can't if the dependency isn't installed, so I still want to test the 0 case.
13:45 tcohen uff, i'd say test the 0 case, then add the loop, inside the SKIP bolck
13:46 tcohen more lines, but people will figure what it is doing better
13:46 mtompset I was going for an optimized loop, not necessarily readability. :P
13:46 tcohen i know :-D

14:11 mtompset I know we removed ReadOnly.
14:11 mtompset Trying to make my tests perlcritic -2 friendly. ;)
14:12 tcohen mtompset: look at Koha.pm
14:12 tcohen (not C4/Koha.pm)
14:12 mtompset I don't care about the $VERSION.
14:13 mtompset I care about my 115 not being clear.
14:13 mtompset Or my 24 not being clear. :P
14:13 mtompset (like people don't know the number of hours in a day)
14:14 mtompset I'll just leave it. :)
14:14 tcohen i'd just put a ironic comment saying that days still obviously have around 24 hours
14:14 cait sometimes a minute more or less... :)
14:14 tcohen cait: exactly
14:14 tcohen hi cait
14:15 cait hi tcohen
14:17 * drojf throws leap-seconds to confuse everyone

14:18 cait i was waiting for you :P
14:19 drojf that sounds scary ;)
14:23 andreashm haha
14:27 cait not THAT scary... right?
14:27 druthb drojf!  cait! tcohen! mtompset!
14:27 * druthb waves excitedly.
14:27 mtompset druthb: You're a millionaire and going to make a huge donation?!
14:28 * mtompset grins.
14:28 druthb *snrk*
14:28 mtompset OH OH!
14:28 mtompset You found the love of your life?!
14:28 druthb nope.  Didn't win the lotto or anythin'.
14:28 mtompset Oh. :(
14:28 druthb Nope, that either, though I *do* have a date on Friday.
14:28 druthb first time for *that* in quite a while.
14:29 mtompset blind date?
14:29 cait :)
14:29 druthb no, not blind. :) We've been kind of casually flirting with each other for a while.
14:29 mtompset Okay, well... have fun. :)
14:29 druthb I finally got mah nerve up and asked them out.

15:36 tcohen cait: is it true that patrons can edit items from another branches even with independentbranches=on?
15:38 cait yes and no
15:38 cait indybranches does stop it to some degree
15:38 cait but htere are holes
15:38 cait like the edit items links on the items table
15:38 cait i filed a bug for that
15:39 cait which means... that the page itself doesn't seem to block it - but there is some logic on the edit links on the edit items page
15:39 tcohen cait: number?
15:39 wahanui number is going down too fast
15:39 cait does that make sense?
15:39 cait trying to find it
15:39 tcohen cait: yes, it seemed to me that we hide the links (some of them ,not all of them) but we can got there and edit the items :-D
15:39 cait bug 14354
15:39 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=14354 normal, P5 - low, ---, jonathan.druart, Needs Signoff , Only superlibrarian should see edit links for other branches' items in staff detail
15:43 tcohen oh damn
15:43 pianohacker cait: I have a question regarding bug 14510; there's an unspoken assumption that the kohafield mappings in the default framework are what hold regardless of what the actual frameworkcode is. Is that safe to assume for the purposes of that bug?
15:43 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=14510 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, jweaver, Failed QA , Allow column visibility in additem.pl to be customized
15:44 cait hm
15:45 pianohacker cait: I'm purely using it in this case so I can connect the columns to some actual name
15:45 cait yeah then no
15:45 cait I think you should respect the framework
15:45 cait and also the hidden values there
15:45 pianohacker hm, okay
15:46 cait for example - FA is a lot shorter for us then DEFAULT
15:46 cait and if you set fields to inogre currently.. they will also be hidden in the form above
15:46 cait tab = ignore
15:46 cait I wonder - why not check the 'editor hidden' flags?
15:47 pianohacker yeah, I remember we had talked about this before... I brought this back to the original partner and they did want visibility settings independent of the hidden setting. Ignore, though, will still hide the column in both places
15:47 cait libraries... ;)
15:47 pianohacker cait: (amen) it's really tricky with how the columns settings work to even use the hidden settings as a default :/
15:48 cait I think i don't like the idea of having it separate from the frameworks
15:48 cait it seems like breaking something up that belongs together
15:48 cait at least right now
15:48 cait i think what i'd like best would be having it configurable as another checkbox
15:49 cait if you really need to have it separate
15:49 cait but that's just my feeling
15:50 cait heather++
15:53 pianohacker cait: yeah, but having it in the frameworks adds a number of issues
15:54 pianohacker first and foremost, unless I just hack in another db column, adding that to the hidden settings is an absolute nightmare
15:54 cait there are still unused values :P
15:54 cait and that ominuos 'flagged'
15:54 pianohacker positively unused? are you sure? :)
15:55 cait there are soe numeric ones that are documented for 'future use'
15:55 cait but the way it works... you'd need to touch alot of stuff probably :(

15:55 fridolin joined #koha
15:56 cait btw - don't forget to update your rancor demo installation for thursday :)
15:56 pianohacker plus, if you put it purely in the frameworks, you lose the ability to show/hide columns at runtime without a lot of extra work
15:56 fridolin left #koha
15:56 pianohacker I _think_ it's up to date but I need to try to fix the lingering issues by then
15:58 pianohacker cait: I don't think there's really an ideal solution given that I'm mixing the columns config stuff and frameworks, so I went with the simplest possible way
15:59 pianohacker so while it may not be ideal it's at least straightforwardly wrong :)
15:59 cait if the ignore still works...
15:59 pianohacker ignore will, yes
15:59 cait maybe that's the best we can do
15:59 pianohacker hidden has never affected the table, so that at least isn't _changing_
15:59 cait but i am still not a fan of separating those too - it hink it could lead to confusion easily
15:59 cait we will redirect all questions to you :)
16:00 pianohacker the main use case of this is to be able to hide certain columns by default (like itemnotes) that can explode the table
16:00 Joubu I am not sure those 2 things are related
16:01 Joubu you can also add a field which is hidden in the edit item table, don't you?
16:01 pianohacker nope
16:01 Joubu ha :)
16:01 pianohacker you can set it to ignore, but that's it
16:01 pianohacker and that hides it in both the form and the table
16:02 Joubu ok, forget me, sorry for the noise
16:02 pianohacker Joubu: I _think_ there's a framework issue I need to account for that's breaking this for you. Thanks for the sandbox link
16:03 pianohacker cait: but yeah, I mean, if you have a framework without one of the columns that has been hidden, it will just continue not to exist :)
16:04 pianohacker and having it not be hidden by default won't make it suddenly appear in a framework where it's missing. Does that make sense?
16:05 cait yep
16:05 cait raining heavily... ok, i am ging to work a little longer
16:08 drojf starting here now
16:08 drojf now that i am done here
16:08 drojf :D
16:11 reiveune bye
16:11 reiveune left #koha
16:13 pianohacker Joubu: another thing that's hurting bug 14510; I noticed that a lot of the item fields in UNIMARC don't seem to be mapped to item fields. Do you know if there's a reason for that?
16:13 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=14510 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, jweaver, Failed QA , Allow column visibility in additem.pl to be customized
16:13 cait pianohacker: i thik it's just that the default framework is not good
16:13 cait pianohacker: there is a bug about that even i think...
16:14 pianohacker Hrm :/
16:14 cait why is it a problem?
16:15 cait i think you'd look at the 995 fields form the frameworks, wouldn't you?
16:15 cait there can always be unmapped fields
16:15 cait because we have the feature to store in more_subfields_xml then
16:15 cait it's not a bug, it's a feature :) but the description would still have to be defined in the framework
16:16 pianohacker yeah, but with the way that the column stuff works, it needs a name for a column in order to have settings for it
16:16 pianohacker I used the database column
16:16 cait hm i thought it always did that currently
16:16 pianohacker It's not necessarily a killer, but it means that it's impossible to use the columns stuff for unmapped columns
16:16 cait ah
16:17 cait does it currently show the additional non-mapped fields in the table?
16:18 pianohacker cait: in fact, for most of the tables in the columns stuff, it's only a coincidence that the names are similar to the database column
16:18 pianohacker because they work purely on order
16:18 pianohacker obv that can't work for the items table
16:18 cait you lost me a bit
16:18 pianohacker cait: it will, yes
16:19 pianohacker cait: so, the columns code currently depends on there being a fixed set of columns in a fixed order
16:19 pianohacker the name in the column editor is purely for the human
16:19 cait so maybe... ti won't work
16:20 cait because items is not fixed
16:20 cait you can add additional item fields...
16:20 pianohacker cait: I worked around that by using the kohafield to give the columns code something to connect the two
16:21 pianohacker and you'll be able to show/hide the extra columns, but not set default settings for them
16:22 Joubu Absolutely no idea
16:22 Joubu pianohacker: Absolutely no idea
16:22 pianohacker okay, thanks regardless
16:25 Joubu pianohacker: I haven't deep into the code, to know how it could be possible to do, but maybe it will be quite difficult to implement
16:25 Joubu and maybe it could be... considered as a configuration issue
16:25 pianohacker It's doable, but the default settings part of the columns config can really only work for mapped fields
16:27 Joubu bye #koha!
16:27 pianohacker bye :)

17:21 tcohen how do i short-circuit to a login page in a controller script if i find permissions are not complied?
17:22 tcohen I know get_template_and_user does that
17:22 tcohen but it is not enough
17:22 pianohacker tcohen: checkauth?
17:22 tcohen pianohacker: i'm adding a check for itemnumber->homebranch == user homebranch
17:23 tcohen for the independentbranches config, and not superlibrarian of course
17:24 tcohen checkauth is not designed for that
17:24 tcohen ashimema_: ?
17:24 pianohacker tcohen: yeah... you could always call it with a nonsense permission
17:24 pianohacker or superlibrarian => 1
17:24 ashimema_ hi
17:24 tcohen pianohacker: that's not kosher
17:25 ashimema_ erm..
17:25 ashimema_ let me just fix somthing else.. then I'll remind mysefl how our auth code works ;)
17:26 * tcohen gives the Auth module maintainer some minutes to prepare :-D
17:28 tcohen pianohacker: BTW, your solution would work heh
17:28 pianohacker the nonsense permission, or superlibrarian => 1

18:22 tcohen gaetan_B: i think we should cache the XSLT's instead
18:22 gaetan_B tcohen: aah that's interesting
18:22 gaetan_B i have seen that xslt is a place we lose a lot of time in search
18:22 gaetan_B i am not able to understand this more deeply though
18:23 tcohen gaetan_B: i haven't had the time to invest on that, but my idea is that we should have a general XSLT cache
18:23 gaetan_B not sure to understand what you mean by caching the xslt, or what Julian's patch is doing actually
18:23 tcohen so we stop loading files from the hard disk all the time
18:23 gaetan_B ah do we load it for each result ?
18:23 tcohen no, we do it for each run
18:24 tcohen but we also traverse the records (in MARC::Record form)
18:24 tcohen applying the frameworks-defined visibility for each (sub)field
18:24 tcohen then translate into XML ->as_xml()
18:24 gaetan_B would that be the reason why a search with a lot of results is dog-slow, even though we only display 20 ?
18:24 tcohen and apply XSLTs on top of that
18:25 tcohen gaetan_B: have you disblaed the zebra facets?
18:25 gaetan_B i mean, i am still struggling to understand why a search with a couple hundreds of results is so much faster than a search with tens of thousands
18:25 gaetan_B zebra facets are disabled yes
18:26 gaetan_B querying zebra directly, there's pretty much no difference, and zebra answers blazing fast anyway actually
18:26 tcohen gaetan_B: my tests showed that removing much of the searchResults processing (which was actually meant fro non-XSLT display) meant a major improvement in rendering speed
18:27 tcohen that's also why I'm focusing on Koha::RecordProcessor right now
18:27 gaetan_B so it seems like there is something in koha that slows down processing of results, and that it is linked to the number of results you get
18:27 gaetan_B but this is all way above my head on the technical side unfortunately
18:28 tcohen because we should just get raw XML from zebra/ES and pass it through several (cached) XSLTs without taht many serialization/de-serialization steps
18:28 tcohen gaetan_B: i'd say it is related to the size of the actual records being processed (not the search results, but the offset we are rendering)
18:29 * tcohen expects to end his RM term to actually have more time to code!

19:20 tcohen and once we agree on how far i got on the implementation, will send you a pull request
19:20 tcohen ok?
19:21 tcohen no point to have on my local machine only
19:24 magnuse tcohen: sounds like a plan
19:24 magnuse i might not have time to look at a pr for a while, but i think the opl people are looking out for kohadevbox too
19:24 tcohen ok
19:25 magnuse maybe we could have different branches in the official repo too
19:25 magnuse an "official" plack branch
19:25 tcohen ah, yes :-D
19:25 magnuse dunno
19:29 magnuse any LDAP pros here at the moment?
19:30 magnuse i can't for the life of me get branchcode into the data that goes into creating a new borrower, and it fails with opac-user.pl: DBIx::Class::ResultSet::create(): Cannot add or update a child row: a foreign key constraint fails (`koha_svf`.`borrowers`, CONSTRAINT `borrowers_ibfk_2` FOREIGN KEY (`branchcode`) REFERENCES `branches` (`branchcode`)) at /usr/share/koha/lib/C4/Members.pm line 770, referer: http://xyz.bibkat.se/
19:32 magnuse i do have <branchcode is="department">XYZ</branchcode> in the mapping, and i have also tried <branchcode is="">XYZ</branchcode>, <branchcode>XYZ</branchcode>
19:32 magnuse <categorycode is="department">XYZ</categorycode> works as expected
19:33 magnuse and category and branch XYZ is defined
19:34 cait hm silly idea
19:34 cait have you checked there is no space after your branchcode?
19:34 cait or maybe switched places of categorycode and branchode in the config file to see if it's then complaining about the other one?
19:35 cait we once had a space after the branchcode in koha... and that led to all kinds of fun
19:38 magnuse no extra spaces
19:39 magnuse the order of categorycode and branchode in the config file does not matter, it is always the branchcode that is missing
19:41 magnuse gah, resterted memcached and now it works!

23:18 rangi so they arent removing saved_sql
23:18 rangi they are removing saved_reports
23:19 cait yes
23:22 rangi so yeah this is not fully right
23:22 cait the only sql i can find referring it is in store_results() and that is commented out everywhere it looks like
23:22 rangi yep that part of the patch is fine
23:22 rangi but as always
23:23 rangi they went further
23:23 rangi and removed stuff from the template
23:24 cait y
23:25 cait do you see something obviously wrong?
23:26 rangi wizzyrea: with the task scheduler is there still an option to save the results?
23:26 wizzyrea hm good q
23:26 wizzyrea 2 shakes I'm looking at that rightnow
23:26 cait thx all :)
23:27 wizzyrea there is an option for "url" instead of email
23:27 wizzyrea 1s looking to see what that means
23:27 rangi yeah it used to send you to a page with the results
23:28 rangi someone probably 'refactored' that until it didnt work
23:28 cait my guess is that it got broken long ago
23:28 wizzyrea yeah, I don't see that in the code anywhere
23:28 wizzyrea only email
23:28 cait in some rewrite
23:28 wizzyrea should probably go away
23:28 rangi fucking refactorers
23:28 rangi do it properly
23:28 rangi or just piss off
23:28 cait heh
23:29 rangi seriously
23:29 rangi what a waste of time that was
23:29 cait so the question is.. do we want to restore... or better start from scratch after carefully tidying?
23:29 cait testing around reports right now, so far no explosions detected
23:29 rangi just tidy it, who needs actually useful features if we can spend time pissing round with cataloguing instead
