14:10 Joubu ebegin: yes :)
14:10 ebegin #infp annoncement - I want to let you know that francharb (former inLibro and BibLibre) has left the Koha community to work with multiple universities in Quebec in order to help them pick their next ILS. We will miss him :-( Thanks Francois for what you did for Koha !
14:10 Joubu #info refactoring still in progress, see email to koha-devel - http://lists.koha-community.or[…]nuary/044242.html
14:10 talljoy joined #koha
14:11 Joubu the point of the refactoring is to make the code cleaner, add code coverage and make it easier to maintain
14:11 cait francharb++ we will miss you and all the best for the future!
14:11 Joubu I really would like to see people involve in the SO and QA process. These patches are easy to write, but hard to maintain
14:11 kidclamp #info annoncement - I want to let you know that francharb (former inLibro and BibLibre) has left the Koha community to work with multiple universities in Quebec in order to help them pick their next ILS. We will miss him :-( Thanks Francois for what you did for Koha !
14:12 Joubu ebegin: what will be their next ILS? Koha?
14:12 oleonard Easy job ;)
14:12 ebegin I wish ! nothing is set yet.  This is a group of 19 university of so
14:13 fridolin francharb thanks for the mapple sirop you had sent ;)

14:14 Joubu #info I am waiting for drojf[m]'s answer to improve our packages building infrastucture
14:14 khall #info Kyle Hall, ByWater Solutions
14:14 Joubu #info I am waiting for QA team to QA all the things
14:14 cait heh
14:15 kidclamp #topic Update on releases
14:15 Topic for #koha is now Update on releases (Meeting topic: General IRC meeting 10 January 2018)
14:15 kidclamp #info 17.11 pushing patches now - will announce string freeze for 15th and release on 22nd
14:15 kidclamp #info 17.11.01 (and other stable) were released late but should be all set
14:16 kidclamp #info thanks all for help on my first release! (I didn't break all the Kohas!)
14:16 kidclamp fridolin?
14:16 wahanui it has been said that fridolin is busy at the moment, I asked him to backport the bug fix
14:16 fridolin kidclamp: release of 17.05.07
14:16 fridolin nothing special
14:17 fridolin just I saw you merged branch from security repo kidclamp
14:17 fridolin so I see a lot of commits twice
14:17 fridolin in 17.11.x branch
14:17 kidclamp ah
14:17 kidclamp i did break all the kohas
14:17 fridolin i think you should avoid merging
14:18 Joubu yes, please cherry-pick instead
14:18 kidclamp will do from now on
14:18 Joubu or rebase
14:18 JoshB joined #koha
14:18 fridolin i'd say push the same branch on security repo and gitmaster
14:19 fridolin i'm done
14:19 Joubu note for Rmaints: we asked Bernardo to create the PR with a valid commit author name/email, instead of "root"
14:19 Joubu something like "Koha Translate Team" will be used
14:19 fridolin +1
14:19 mtompset use sudo echo tee's to append one line at a time from git format-patch's. ;)
14:19 cait pushing should work - did it like that in the past

14:21 cait will put more work on getting the older bugs out of the queue hopefully and I hope we can get the numbers further down
14:21 andreashm (late to the party as ever)
14:21 cait one more thing
14:21 wahanui hmmm... one more thing is I'm installing this new koha for and old version dumped database. besides kohaeupgrade-schema instancename     what shall i do?
14:22 cait #info New info page for QA on the wiki: https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/How_to_QA - read if you want to join us or to learn how the QA team works!
14:22 Joubu and please pick bug fixes before enhs, as always
14:22 cait it's WIP, but some info is there
14:23 cait the QA team is also looking for tutorials on:
14:23 wahanui okay, cait.
14:23 cait #info QA team is looking for tutorials on: Authentication - how to set up LDAP, CAS, Shibboleth, testing translatability
14:24 cait #info ... and a test database with a good amount of acq and/or subscription data
14:24 Joubu testing translatability?
14:24 cait how to check if something is translatable - i might take care of that one
14:25 cait that's it from me :)
14:26 Joubu QAers?
14:26 kidclamp nothing from me, hitting what I can when I can
14:26 kidclamp QAteam++
14:28 kidclamp #topic General development discussion (trends, ideas, ...)
14:28 Topic for #koha is now General development discussion (trends, ideas, ...) (Meeting topic: General IRC meeting 10 January 2018)
14:28 Joubu yes, 2 from me
14:28 Joubu #topic refactoring
14:28 Joubu As I told previously, it is important to spend time on testing and make them in quickly
14:28 ebegin Joubu: I hate that topic :)
14:28 Joubu it's painful to maintain, and... easy to write
14:28 Joubu looking at the diff will show you how useful it is
14:29 Joubu the code after refactoring is much more easier to read and make much more sense (at least to me...)
14:29 kidclamp refactoring++
14:29 Joubu the goal is to uniformize the code: instead of having several routines that do the same things, we have only 1 method (with tests)
14:30 cait tests++
14:30 Joubu I'd like to say that Alex worked on Selenium tests as well
14:30 cait also we get rid of a lot of dead code I think
14:30 ebegin Are we the only one to have difficulties following those ?  This is really hard on us to update the submitted patches and keeping up to date.
14:30 Joubu there are 2 patches waiting for signoff, it's a start (and so blocker) for other patches.
14:31 Joubu I'd like to have much more selenium tests in 18.05, they are important to catch regression
14:31 Joubu s
14:31 ebegin I agree that this is important, however, I believe that we should also attack the performance issues
14:31 Joubu ebegin: that is the point, now it is hard to track what is perf killer
14:31 Joubu with everything in one place, it's much more easier
14:32 ebegin But when "everything" will be in place ?  I don't see the end.  Maybe you do :)
14:32 Joubu if we have Koha::Object (on top of dbic) everywhere (and clean our controller scripts) I could focus on how to improve perf
14:32 cait it's not a short process rewriting your API :)
14:33 Joubu what I see is that these patches do not get the attention I'd like
14:33 kidclamp long process, but each step helps
14:33 Joubu and so I have to wait 6 months to continue this work
14:33 Joubu I cannot rewrite everything in one go
14:33 cait we need more testers and testing to speed it up
14:33 Joubu steps by steps...
14:33 cait Members is almost gone now right?
14:34 Joubu For instance, we have a patch to improve zebra index (retrieve item's info), but it is specific to only 1 table/object (item)
14:34 Joubu so it is adding more and more code, but not generic => too much code to maintain, error prone, etc.
14:35 Joubu ebegin: do you face perf issues?
14:35 Joubu if yes, report it on bugzilla with benchmark and the area to blame
14:35 ebegin Mostly with use of Date/Time which are really really slow.
14:35 Joubu calendar related then?
14:36 ebegin Yep!  We actually submit patches related to this.
14:36 ebegin https://bugs.koha-community.or[…]_bug.cgi?id=17015
14:37 huginn Bug 17015: enhancement, P5 - low, ---, david.bourgault, Signed Off , New Koha Calendar
14:37 Joubu so nothing new to report :)
14:37 blou joined #koha
14:37 Joubu next?
14:37 wahanui next is packaging manager... do we have a volunteer for that?
14:38 Joubu forget next
14:38 wahanui Joubu: I forgot next
14:38 Joubu #topic Merge local and online documentations
14:38 Joubu #link bug 19817
14:38 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=19817 new feature, P5 - low, ---, jonathan.druart, In Discussion , Merge local and online documentations
14:38 ebegin Blou : if you have other performance issues other than the calendar, its a good time to report them :)
14:38 LeeJ yay documentation :D
14:38 Joubu I need feedback on that bug, if you are using the local help editor
14:38 Joubu I am going to work on that, but I need to know how people use it
14:39 Joubu I have time now to dedicate on that, I do not know if I will have in 2 months
14:39 Joubu so please have a look and tell me if you (or customers) are using it
14:39 Joubu and how we could improve it
14:39 LeeJ Joubu: perhaps we consider sending out some sort of questionnaire to the lists?
14:39 Joubu basically I am going to remove the local help pages (to point to the online manual), then add the ability to create local help pages
14:40 caboose love it Jobu
14:40 ebegin I was able to set Sphinx up to build the documentation but it was quite painful... especially the PDF version
14:40 Joubu and so remove the ability to *edit* the official manual (for that, you can contribute to the official version)
14:41 Joubu ebegin: it's quite easy, ping me late if you have questions (I only tested html IIRC)
14:41 cait epub works nicely too
14:41 Joubu mater*
14:41 Joubu later*
14:41 cait tested with Ubuntu
14:41 LeeJ Joubu: let me know if there's anything I can do to help you with the documentation merge :)
14:42 Joubu LeeJ: by answering my comment :)
14:42 Joubu and look at the patches I already submitted
14:42 LeeJ Joubu: I'm looking over the bug now
14:42 georgew joined #koha
14:42 ebegin I didn't have any problem with epub and HTML.  PDF is harder and when we answer RFP, the PDF version is often the best version to provide :-)
14:42 LeeJ Joubu: I didn't have an answer because no one at our library uses the help files...because they just come straight to me to ask
14:42 mtompset Oopx... was slow on the draw... who is the packaging manager? Because unstable is 17.06... shouldn't it be 17.12?
14:42 Joubu I will test that after the meeting then
14:43 Joubu LeeJ: that's the point! How would you like to provide them a manual which could replace you? :D
14:43 Joubu they will stop bother you ;)
14:43 cait the main goal of deduplicating is also to ease maintenance - manual and help files drift apartand translators have to translate both separately right now
14:44 ebegin joubu : can you review the wiki for the installation of Sphinx ?  It was not really helpful : https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_Manual
14:44 LeeJ Joubu: haha fair enough
14:44 cait it's all in the readme
14:44 cait no need to duplicate to the wiki
14:44 ebegin So the wiki should be removed then.
14:44 Joubu ebegin: https://gitlab.com/koha-commun[…]vs-users/kohadocs
14:45 Joubu I am expecting make pdf to do the job, but as I said I did not test it
14:45 cait it's linking to it, the kohadocs part was kept for historical reasons
14:45 Joubu Another "General development discussion" topic?
14:45 nickr Maybe?
14:45 wahanui i think Maybe is a momentaneous error
14:45 kidclamp just to ask for feedback on a few bugs

14:49 kidclamp #topic Set time of next meeting
14:49 Topic for #koha is now Set time of next meeting (Meeting topic: General IRC meeting 10 January 2018)
14:49 nickr I'm not sure I'm in the correct (meeting) spot for this one, but I was
14:49 nickr told IRC was the place.... I'm a teach @ a midsize US University, and one of the courses I run (starting today, in fact) is the project course for CS majors.
14:50 cait nickr: one sec
14:50 nickr OK
14:50 cait i think we are strating the dev meeting after this one?
14:50 cait kidclamp: another meeting part? or are we done? because i think nickr has a topic for us :)
14:50 kidclamp we can add topic if you give a title :-)

14:51 cait eek

14:51 huginn Current chairs: Joubu cait kidclamp
14:51 cait nickr: how sould we call it?
14:51 nickr "possible source of labor but with some overhead cost"?
14:52 cait heh
14:52 cait maybe just koha student projects? and then you can explain?
14:52 nickr Yep.
14:52 cait #topic Koha student projects
14:52 Topic for #koha is now Koha student projects (Meeting topic: General IRC meeting 10 January 2018)
14:52 cait please start
14:52 Joubu erk
14:52 nickr OK
14:52 * Joubu has been disconnected
14:53 nickr I've got students in the "capstone" sort of course.  They get to pick a project (but I exercise some control by prepping the options/menu)
14:53 nickr Typically, they work in a team - so 2-4 or so students, sometimes with a bit of a spread in skills!.
14:54 nickr If there's something identifiable - either a somewhat contained redo/refactor? or something from scratch? - that they could work on, I'm willing to put a Koha "task" on their list.
14:55 nickr Preferably someone currently contributing would be ID'd as the liaison.
14:55 notarock joined #koha
14:55 Joubu We indeed have a lot to do for students, it mostly depends on what they want to do
14:55 kidclamp should people email you wiht ideas nickr?
14:56 ebegin nickr : we start the training of most of our interns asking them to do a plugin.
14:56 Joubu The big step is to understand how the community work (workflow) and the code (it is quite huge)
14:56 oleonard nickr: rangi helps run student work on Koha during Catalyst Academy. He'd be a good person to hit up for strategies
14:56 ebegin That is a good way to learn the libraries without having to go to deep in the core
14:56 nickr Nod... I recall the hugeness (I'll confess to being involved about 12 years ago, mostly on the docs side of things)
14:57 oleonard Learn the process, learn the workflow, test some patches, submit some minor bug fixes. Work up from there.
14:57 nickr Emailing me w/ ideas would be great....
14:57 Joubu first things to do is 1. install a dev env, 2. signoff, 3. read the code, 4. bugfixes. And finally you can deep into the code :)
14:57 cait working on the manual might be good too, there are also related projects to koha like Hea that might be a bit more contained
14:57 nickr I'll also happily talk to rangi.
14:57 kidclamp can you send an email to the list to explain and ask suggestions nickr?
14:58 nickr sure, will do.
14:58 cait Catalyst Academy has it's project week next week
14:58 nickr gotcha. :)
14:58 cait maybe keep an eye on this one to see what they are working on: https://wiki.koha-community.or[…]/Catalyst_Academy
14:58 nickr If it looks like too much setup hassle, it isn't an emergency for me!
14:58 kidclamp #info nickr is looking for Koha projects to assign to temas of CS students, email him with suggestions
14:58 kidclamp #info nickr will email the lists with more info
14:59 nickr Thanks so much!
14:59 nickr I'll be in touch...
14:59 nickr Part of the trick is to find something that'll motivate/intrigue them a bit. : )
15:00 Joubu we could also find something new, around the project
15:00 nickr ... and I'll freely admit I know from longtime mail list lurking and earlier volunteer work few places have this crowd beat on being a supportive community.
15:00 LeeJ nickr: I second the idea of plugins...they're fun to work on and help as a good primer about how Koha works :)
15:00 kidclamp any more topics?
15:00 nickr (thanks all!)
15:01 cait might have to make some suggestions,as they are not so familiar with libraries
15:01 kidclamp #topic Review of coding guidelines
15:01 Topic for #koha is now Review of coding guidelines (Meeting topic: General IRC meeting 10 January 2018)
15:01 Joubu #info tcohen is not around. "New rule SQL12: Booleans" vote is postponed
15:02 ebegin welcome back nickr :)
15:02 Joubu from the last meeting " action: cait improve the coding guidelines related to the use of SQL queries " did you?
15:02 mtompset What was SQL12 Booleans?
15:02 cait oops
15:02 cait sorry, not quite ready
15:02 Joubu mtompset: http://meetings.koha-community[…]-12-27-20.08.html
15:02 cait please postpone
15:02 kidclamp #info Reminder to all - please add topics to the agenda :-)
15:03 Joubu #info "New rule "No DBIx::Class in atomic updates"" is postponed

15:03 Joubu To all, please...  "Write good commit messages"
15:03 Joubu see the last meeting minutes, I am going to be rude on the bug report, sorry in advance...
15:03 Joubu reports*
15:04 marcelr should that be on the guidelines too ?
15:04 kidclamp you can be strict and polite :-D
15:04 Joubu "Read https://wiki.koha-community.or[…]i/Commit_messages to know how to write valid commit messages (Joubu, 20:58:15)"
15:04 Joubu like
15:04 Joubu 1sec
15:05 LeeJ Joubu: you need to give tough love to all of us to make the product better :)
15:05 * mtompset crosses fingers.
15:05 Joubu 1. Patch's title starts with "Bug 12345: "
15:05 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=12345 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, oleonard, NEW , Can't Clear Reading History for Anonymous patron
15:05 Joubu 2. (QA follow-up) and (follow-up) are ok
15:05 marcelr hmm the good example is rather ugly
15:05 Joubu 3. Bug report titles are different from commit titles
15:06 marcelr authority searches in auth_finder error out
15:06 Joubu marcelr: I wrote the "examples" section
15:06 Joubu I'd also like to say:
15:06 marcelr nobody comes that far ;)
15:06 Joubu #info IMPORTANT - no need to add new subroutines to C4 namespace, it will be rejected
15:07 Joubu #info IMPORTANT - no need to add or update methods without test coverage, it will be rejected
15:07 cait scary Joubu
15:07 Joubu otherwise you and us are wasting our time
15:08 cait I'd also encourage devs to run qa tools if you don't already
15:08 cait Joubu: could we add something checking for new subroutines without test coverage?
15:08 marcelr we will reject your code unless stated otherwise ;)
15:08 Joubu cait: well, now people adds empty POD to make the script happy...
15:09 cait might have been by mistake
15:09 Joubu nope
15:09 Joubu next meeting?
15:09 wahanui next meeting is https://wiki.koha-community.or[…]Next_IRC_meetings
15:09 mtompset Plus adding test coverage means less regressions, and proof your code works. Harsh but good.
15:09 clrh you could have a "check before committing" in the wiki page with these "Important"
15:10 kidclamp #topic Set time of next meeting
15:10 Topic for #koha is now Set time of next meeting (Meeting topic: General IRC meeting 10 January 2018)
15:10 kidclamp wiki page is good idea
15:10 kidclamp are these already in coding guidelines?
15:10 Joubu kidclamp: ? the mandatory tests and C4 deprecation?
15:10 Joubu yes ofc
15:10 kidclamp :-)
15:11 cait we might want to restructure and highlight

15:11 cait part of my forgotton homework
15:11 cait I won't be there - travelling

17:19 Freddy_Enrique Good afternoon guys!
17:19 Freddy_Enrique meant to ask, do I have to reindex manually or is it something that it's done automaticaly?
17:31 LeeJ hi Freddy_Enrique I think by default the zebra indexing cron is set to run on a schedule
17:33 Freddy_Enrique I see.... I ask it because I after migration (I did the reindex procedure at that time) I kept modifying some bib records and authorities on a daily basis
17:34 Freddy_Enrique I could just do the reindex, but I wanted to know :). Thanks LeeJ
17:35 LeeJ if I recall correctly, the reindex is defaulted to 15 minutes
