07:53 ere good morning
07:55 ere ashimema: Hi, I'm not really sure if my work is "sponsored". I mean I work for the National Library of Finland and just my job. :)
08:01 ashimema morning
08:01 ashimema well, if yuo think they'd like to get recognition that you've worked on it on their time then feel free to add the trailers ;)
08:01 ashimema I'm all for recognising contributions every way we can ;)
08:02 ashimema it gives exposure and helps encourage others to contribute too :)
08:07 ere ashimema: Ok, I'll try to remember that in the future :)
08:08 ashimema no worries
08:08 ashimema I'm happy to add the trailes to the commits for you now if you like.. lots of it hasn't been pushed yet
08:08 ere ashimema: That'd be great, thanks!

10:47 cait hm
10:47 cait there is a patch requiring Dancer...
10:51 magnuse cait: we might not want to use both mojo and dancer...
10:51 magnuse which patch?
10:52 cait yeah it was my thinking we might want to discuss this
10:52 cait bug 21210
10:52 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=21210 new feature, P5 - low, ---, ere.maijala, ASSIGNED , Elasticsearch based SRU server
10:53 magnuse ooh, that would be a Very Good enh, though!
10:55 cait true
10:59 kohaputti joined #koha
11:07 ere magnuse, cait: Yeah, well, that was just something I wrapped up real quick, but from what I recall from talking with kidclamp it would be better to have something more generic. I'll give it a bit more thought as soon as possible..
11:09 ashimema Wouldn't have thought that would be very hard to convert to a mojo app
11:10 ashimema I presume it's a self contained Daemon as its uses Dancer...
11:10 * ashimema hasn't got time to look at the moment
11:11 * ashimema is keen to investigate the run koha as a mojo app at some point too..
11:11 ashimema Would be nice to join the 20th century's
11:16 kivilahtio ashimema: agreed
11:16 ere ashimema: That's an area I don't really know much about. Still, it would be better to not tie the server on a specific search engine implementation if possible..
11:16 tuxayo Hi :)
11:16 tuxayo documentation: Does anyone know if the manual translations are synced with Pootle for every minor release?
11:17 tuxayo I mean this https://koha-community.org/manual/18.05/en/html/

11:50 sophie_m Hi #koha
11:51 andreashm hi sophie_m
11:51 sophie_m For people who are using notices in Koha, using <<today>> in your template, how do you expect the final output, date only or date and time ?
12:19 magnuse sophie_m: i would expect date only
12:29 sophie_m Thanks magnuse. It has changed between 16.11 and 17.11 and I can't find why. I will file a bug
12:35 paxed sophie_m: can't you use <<today | dateonly>> ?
12:38 sophie_m Until now I didn't have to add dateonly. If I choose this solution, I had to modify all the templates of all our clients. If everybody agrees that today should be date only, it is better to change it in the source code

12:50 cait sophie_m: I amnot sure, but i feel it had the time for a while now
12:50 cait so changing it back without hte option to have the time might be a surprise too
12:51 cait if it was changed in 17.11 it's been like that for a long itme
12:51 sophie_m cait : I have checked. For our customers that are still in 16.11, <<today>> is replaced with date only

13:23 cait sophie_m: i believe you - but ti's 2 years already
13:24 cait or 1.5 if it changed with 17.11
13:24 alex_a__ joined #koha
13:25 sophie_m cait : that's why I'm surprised nobody else reacts when it changed
13:26 sophie_m And I am not sure that every Koha in production are all up to date with the last version :)
13:28 marcelr sophie_m: most are on 17.11 i suspect
13:29 sophie_m marcelr: so are most of our clients, but its only now that they report this change.
13:30 tcohen morning!
13:30 sophie_m Nevertheless, I'll try the template modification if I am the only one that it disturb...
13:30 Freddy_Enrique hi tcohen :)

13:33 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=21774 critical, P5 - low, ---, m.de.rooy, Signed Off , Cloned item subfields disappear when editing an item
13:36 tcohen Sure, I'll take care later today :-D

13:39 Freddy_Enrique A question my friends. Is it possible to assign a item in more than one CCODE????
13:39 Freddy_Enrique an*
13:40 magnuse Freddy_Enrique: no
13:40 magnuse CCODE is stored in one field in the db, it can only take one value
13:41 magnuse but you can have different items with different CCODEs attached to the same record
13:41 Freddy_Enrique oh... I asked because of bug 21774
13:41 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=21774 critical, P5 - low, ---, m.de.rooy, Signed Off , Cloned item subfields disappear when editing an item
13:41 Freddy_Enrique oh! I didn't explain myself correctly. You are right
14:00 tcohen they can be repeatable
14:00 tcohen they get stored |-separated
14:01 tcohen try it
14:01 tcohen I'm not sure it makes sense
14:01 tcohen but it can be done
14:01 tcohen :-D

15:37 mtompset Greetings, #koha.
15:37 mtompset @seen cait
15:37 huginn mtompset: cait was last seen in #koha 2 hours, 13 minutes, and 35 seconds ago: <cait> or 1.5 if it changed with 17.11
15:37 mtompset @seen jcamins_
15:37 huginn mtompset: I have not seen jcamins_.
15:38 mtompset @seen jcamins
15:38 huginn mtompset: jcamins was last seen in #koha 25 weeks, 0 days, 16 hours, 47 minutes, and 38 seconds ago: <jcamins> cait: probably 561.
15:38 mtompset I need a MARC expert.
15:38 mtompset When did '9' get added?
15:38 mtompset 009 that is.
15:46 * CrispyBran waves
15:46 mtompset Greetings, CrispyBran
15:46 CrispyBran howdy
15:46 wahanui que tal, CrispyBran
15:46 mtompset CrispyBran, do you know anything about MARC control field 009?
15:47 CrispyBran looking
15:47 oleonard mtompset: Did you check the Library of Congress documentation?
15:48 mtompset The web site doesn't have it...
15:48 mtompset I think 009 is a new addition.
15:49 CrispyBran 009 Cartographic Material - Physical Description Fixed Field (Detailed)  (CM)  [obsolete, 1997]  [CAN/MARC only]:
15:49 CrispyBran CAN/MARC field 009 was made obsolete in 1997 with the definition of the new field 007 for remote sensing images and new values in the maps 008 field.
15:49 CrispyBran That's all I can find.
15:50 CrispyBran Library of Congress does not list it, so it must be old.
15:51 mtompset Hmm...

16:00 oleonard tcohen around?
16:04 * mtompset frowns, "t/db_dependent/Biblio.t is failing for me. For a test I'm trying to add."
16:08 tuxayo oleonard: why not ;) After all, this part of Koha's infrastructure is used by many of us here for work. :P
16:08 tuxayo Seriously we (libraries and support companies) could put bounties on some bugs heads. https://www.bountysource.com/
16:09 tuxayo I wonder how hard it is for a library to put money in there.
16:10 oleonard tuxayo: My genuine concern is that rangi is maintaining splitter out of the goodness of his heart and doesn't get the support he needs for it
16:13 oleonard @later tell rangi Is there anything we as a community can do to help get splitter up and stable?
16:13 huginn oleonard: The operation succeeded.
16:16 tuxayo oleonard: Then maybe https://liberapay.com/ or https://salt.bountysource.com/ could be solutions.
16:16 tuxayo To fund maintenance of software or services.
16:16 tuxayo I don't know, at least for general public a some developpement tools they are gaining adoption.
16:16 tuxayo *general public stuff
16:27 Shane-S joined #koha
16:28 Shane-S Anyone use a DYMO LabelWrite 400/450 with Koha's barcode creator? I just got one and the tool is nice, but it registers as a printer...just not sure how to create a template for it
16:31 oleonard Shane-S: Is there specific software which comes with the printer? Instead of printing directly to a label printer we export data to printer-specific software which formats it correctly.
16:32 Shane-S There is, do you just do a export via CSV/XLSX and then import into a template?
16:33 oleonard Yes
16:34 Shane-S okay I will have to look into that more, just normal report / sql I assume?
16:35 Shane-S I haven't played with the software much yet, literally got it 3 days ago for my own "IT" needs, just thinking it might be easier then fighting with toner and label alignments
16:36 oleonard We still go through the label creator tool, but we use the "Download as CSV" option and pass that file to the printer software.
16:38 Shane-S oleonard: thanks, you at least directed my thinking "out" of Koha to look more at the label maker
16:55 mtompset What is splitter.koha-community.org?
16:56 oleonard A site that uses Bugzilla data to find what files have outstanding patches
16:58 oleonard https://github.com/joubu/bz-splitter
16:58 oleonard Correction: https://gitlab.com/koha-community/bz-splitter
16:59 oleonard Joubu++
17:00 mtompset Oooo.... so every bug that affects C4/Biblio.pm? or whatever?
17:00 oleonard Yes, if there's a patch in Bugzilla which touches it

18:18 oleonard I see I missed a lot while I was out.
18:29 * oleonard ducks into #CoolKoha to see if that's where everyone is
18:30 ashimema Splitter has a bug.. joubu was hunting for it a week or two ago.. we think it's encoding related.. or ipv6 requests or something that kills it
18:30 * oleonard is booted right out
18:30 ashimema If you have access to an ipv6 connection I'm sure joubu would appreciate the help narrowing it down.. once the bug is fixed I think it's fairly low maintanence
18:31 ashimema There's a #CoolKoha
18:31 * ashimema is uncool
18:31 oleonard Thanks ashimema
18:32 ashimema Been a busy few weeks.. else it would probably be a bit higher up some of our lists.. hehe
18:32 ashimema Always a good idea to help fund this stuff though.. it sits on the second server as bugzilla.. which I think is also a donated system
19:08 magnuse patreon for supporting rangi who pays for some of those servers: https://www.patreon.com/user?u=459074
19:10 oleonard Thanks magnuse I didn't know about that
19:14 magnuse my pleasure!
