Morning |
| 07:41 |
|
marcelr |
hi ashimema |
| 07:49 |
|
marcelr |
i am looking for the easiest way to add to a date in a tt file; when I pass a dt object I can just do [% testdate.add( days => 1) %] but how do I handle a date field ? |
| 07:53 |
|
ashimema |
er... |
| 07:53 |
|
ashimema |
good question.. I have no idea off the top of my head |
| 07:55 |

probably need a convert to dt object in KohaTemplatePlugin |
| 07:56 |
|
alex_ |
Bonjour |
| 07:57 |
|
ashimema |
how is the field getting passed to the template? |
| 07:57 |
|
ashimema |
I'm confused |
| 07:58 |
|
ashimema |
the KohaDate filter already accepts both a string and a dt object (dt_from_string is used, and that accepts both) |
| 07:59 |
|
marcelr |
i would like to do e.g. borrower.dateexpiry.add( days => 1 ) |
| 07:59 |
|
ashimema |
I would think [% testdate.add( days => 1 ) | $KohaDates %] woudl work |
| 07:59 |
|
marcelr |
yes it works but i need to pass a dt object |
| 07:59 |
|
marcelr |
and now i want to do it on a regular db field |
| 07:59 |
|
ashimema |
ah, so dateexpired isn't expanded |
| 07:59 |
|
ashimema |
I see |
| 07:59 |
|
marcelr |
so i need the dt conv |
| 07:59 |
|
marcelr |
and it seems not to be there yet |
| 08:00 |
|
marcelr |
Template's use date is not enough |
| 08:00 |
|
ashimema |
so yeah.. I think you're right.. perhaps add a parameter to the KohaDates filter |
| 08:01 |
|
ashimema |
we accept as_due_date |
| 08:01 |
|
ashimema |
you could add 'add', 'subtract' to what it accepts |
| 08:01 |
|
marcelr |
ah this works: [% KohaDates.dt(borrower.dateexpiry).add( years => 2 ) | $KohaDates %] |
| 08:01 |
|
marcelr |
when i add a small dt sub |
| 08:02 |
|
ashimema |
maybe? |
| 08:02 |
|
ashimema |
oh.. interesting |
| 08:02 |
|
ashimema |
cool |
| 08:02 |
|
ashimema |
me was thinking |
| 08:02 |
|
ashimema |
`[% borrower.dateexpiry | $KohaDates add_days => 1 %]` |
| 08:03 |
|
ashimema |
or something along those lines |
| 08:03 |
|
ashimema |
but it could be a pain adding a bunch of 'add_' and 'subtract_' options to the filter method |
| 08:03 |
|
marcelr |
yes it looks nicer but seems to be more code |
| 08:03 |
|
marcelr |
will have a try |
| 08:03 |
|
ashimema |
indeed |
| 08:03 |
|
marcelr |
thx |
| 08:04 |
|
ashimema |
it's a nice idea.. though I'm somewhat intrigued by the use case. |
| 08:04 |
|
ashimema |
part of me is surprised the requirement hasn't come up before in my memory |
| 08:04 |
|
ashimema |
part of my can't think of a reason you'd need it.. haha |

marcelr |
want to calculate a date three weeks further from issue date |
| 08:05 |

I need to start paying more attention.. not used to having an awesome team supporting me here and munching through the signoffs 🙂 |

more attention is always good :) |

Can we do increment fine in koha. Without development |
| 13:15 |
|
cait |
what do you mean by increment? |
| 13:15 |

Koha does add x to your fine every y days until ... if you configure it |

you can of course search for an existing bug, submit a new bug and even submit code against a bug yourselves |
| 13:35 |
|
ashimema |
my point is.. we all have to feed our families and can't produce all features and all code for free |
| 13:35 |

the developments that progress quickest are those that are paid for |

cait, if you have time can you give your opinion on bug 33237 ? I think it's a bug, but I wanted the opinion of someone else who uses Koha in another language |
| 14:01 |
|
huginn |
Bug https://bugs.koha-community.or[…]_bug.cgi?id=33237 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, koha-bugs, NEW , If TranslateNotices is off, use the interface language includes in slips |
| 14:28 |
|
marcelr |
i would expect if translate is off, always use default language ? |
| 14:28 |
|
marcelr |
default (notice) language |
| 14:29 |
|
caroline |
marcelr, well, in that case, it's always english |
| 14:29 |
|
marcelr |
yes but you could enable Translate |
| 14:29 |
|
marcelr |
just what you want.. |
| 14:29 |
|
caroline |
yes that's what I did, but I think it is unnecessary for installations with just one non-english language |
| 14:30 |
|
marcelr |
their notices could be vernacular anyway (as recorded in default) |
| 14:30 |
|
caroline |
but the "includes" are not translated |
| 14:30 |
|
marcelr |
ok |
| 14:31 |
|
caroline |
For example, the slip will be in French, but the accountype will print in english |
| 14:32 |
|
marcelr |
yeah thats odd |
| 14:32 |
|
tcohen |
marcelr: we can no longer get useful error informaiton on the API, can you check what's going on? |
| 14:33 |
|
marcelr |
what do you mean ? |
| 14:33 |
|
tcohen |
we used to warn "$exception" somehow |
| 14:33 |
|
tcohen |
now we call $c->log->error ... |
| 14:33 |
|
tcohen |
and that goes nowhere |
| 14:34 |
|
marcelr |
ok i will have a look |
| 14:35 |
|
cait |
hm commented on the bug |
| 14:35 |
|
cait |
caroline: ^ |
| 14:35 |
|
cait |
i think interface language shoudl work for us, but another option could be to use the first in language list as the default |
| 14:35 |
|
cait |
you can reorder them because there is already some kind of fallback behavikour |
| 14:37 |
|
caroline |
cait, thanks! I like the idea of the first language being the default |
| 14:41 |
|
marcelr |
tcohen: if I add a die in REST/V1/Patrons::get, I see the following in my plack-api-error.log: |
| 14:41 |
|
marcelr |
[2023/03/16 14:38:31] [ERROR] GET /api/v1/patrons/51: unhandled exception (Mojo::Exception)<<Died at /usr/share/koha/Koha/REST/V1/Patrons.pm line 79.>> |
| 14:41 |
|
marcelr |
is it related to permissions on that file or specific log4perl configuration ? |
| 14:49 |

caroline: that's funny - I was going to suggest using itembarcodefallbacksearch as an option for your dinosaurs yesterday - but then the list didn't show which was already checked out. And now AndrewFH filed bug 33246 |
| 15:13 |
|
huginn |
Bug https://bugs.koha-community.or[…]_bug.cgi?id=33246 normal, P5 - low, ---, koha-bugs, NEW , itemBarcodeFallbackSearch search results should show whether or not items are available |
| 15:14 |
|
cait |
like... search for a prefix-barcode that is on the sheet, pick one that was not checked out out of the list |
| 15:14 |
|
caroline |
yeah he wrote on the ML with that option and said there were bugs |
| 15:15 |
|
caroline |
It's an interesting approach that I hadn't thought of at all |
| 15:15 |
|
cait |
ah, didn't se the ML mails yet, willcheck later |
| 15:18 |
|
caroline |
re: sending mails maybe? interesting. So would it be if interface, then interface, if not, then first language? |
| 15:20 |
|
cait |
could be a plan |
| 15:21 |
|
cait |
or even more: Patrons peferred language if a notice template exists for it - interace - first language? |
| 15:22 |
|
caroline |
the notice template is not really the problem, it's the "includes" |
| 15:27 |
|
caroline |
If the patron has a preferred language both the notice and the includes will be in the correct language |
| 15:29 |
|
cait |
aah ok |
| 15:29 |
|
cait |
so maybe it just neeeds more fallbacks then |
| 15:29 |
|
caroline |
yes I think so... and not assume that "default" is "english" |
| 15:30 |
|
caroline |
that's why I liked your first language idea |
| 15:32 |
|
caroline |
I'll try to summarize this in the bug |
| 15:32 |

perhaps aude_c can beat me with a big stick at hackfest to make sure it's done 😜 |

we can drop it, it was a nice idea, but we can continue with the dual status/keyword |

else we'll spam anyone ever associated with those bugs with the mass edit. |

🙂 |
| 16:13 |
|
aude_c |
but as caroline says, not essential |

I was also going to try and enhance the dashboard a little more to improve the stats and recognise you guys a bit more 🙂 |
| 16:13 |

Did we have anything else to hash out for the screenshot update? |

lol |
| 16:17 |
|
aude_c |
Yes: do we have a video link? |
| 16:17 |
|
cait |
for the mass edit: I sometimes put Manual in QA step |
| 16:17 |
|
caroline |
as long as it's fresh, it shouldn't hurt too too much |
| 16:17 |
|
cait |
so the status would not be necessarily be pushed always |
| 16:17 |
|
cait |
not sure we can just update them to "Needs documenting" |
| 16:18 |
|
cait |
they might be stuck in some other status |
| 16:18 |
|
caroline |
ok no prob, we'll continue as is... I think we had an idea to do it, but needed to check the consequences and these are it |
| 16:18 |
|
aude_c |
Marseille: can we send a message out in advance to the Koha mailing list, explaining how we're going to do it, what time people can start joining via the video link, also what we agreed last time about the copy of the images file? |
| 16:18 |
|
ashimema |
I could try to dig out the removal of the 'manual' keyword and use that in the dashboard stats |
| 16:18 |
|
aude_c |
I'm happy to do it myself - just wanted to check we were all ok on that |
| 16:19 |
|
ashimema |
alongside the change from 'Needs documetation' to any other status |
| 16:19 |
|
ashimema |
.. I might even be able to update the link/counts to search on status or keyword? |
| 16:19 |
|
caroline |
ashimema, it could cause noise no? |
| 16:19 |
|
ashimema |
cait.. you might be able to guide me there a bit 😜 |
| 16:19 |

um where to? |

looks like several phone operators cover Marseille for 5G (no idea what we get switched to when we're there with our UK phones) |
| 16:24 |

I was also answering questions on the Patron import tool earlier this week and spotted some Documentation bugs about it so I added those to my to-do list. |
| 16:30 |
|

ok I could try to get someone from bws to look at ES documentation... they were complaining about it |

not sure what this topic is compared to the previous one... |

thd |
People should know that at the present time wiki email is broken again which prevents new account creation and password resetting. I can reset passwords on the wiki docker container command line and could presumably create new accounts on the command line. Probably some Postfix security update at tcohen's SMTP server has made things too secure. Gabriel, his systems administration person will fix it sometime soon we hope. Running the wiki i |
| 16:39 |
|
thd |
n a Docker container complicates email authentication which is already complex enough because of spam prevention issues but a mail system on the same server would not be localhost when the wiki is in a Docker container. Several hours fiddling with wiki settings did not fix the problem but Gabriel can adjust both the SMTP server and the wiki. |

If you really need password reset I can do it from the command line. |
| 16:41 |
|
caroline |
should I info that? Not sure I want to advertise contacting you directly... |

hey, wasn´t the chat in the koha interface once? |
| 18:12 |
|
caroline |
zimbo_[m], if it ever was, it was before my time |
| 18:14 |
|
zimbo_[m] |
since when r u working on koha? |
| 18:14 |
|
caroline |
2017 |
| 18:14 |
|

no i defintetly saw it like a few months ago |
| 18:15 |
|
caroline |
in the staff interface? |
| 18:15 |
|
zimbo_[m] |
yes |
| 18:16 |
|
caroline |
And you would chat with...? other staff members? |
| 18:16 |
|
zimbo_[m] |
no i saw the devs talking on it |
| 18:17 |
|
zimbo_[m] |
about the new things about koha |
| 18:17 |
|
caroline |
it's really not ringing a bell, sorry... :/ |
| 18:17 |
|
caroline |
although in my defense, my memory is very poor... so I might just not remember it |
| 18:18 |
|
ashimema |
I've never seen that |
| 18:18 |
|
ashimema |
Not since I've been in Koha since 2009 |
| 18:18 |
|
ashimema |
I like the idea though |
| 18:18 |
|
zimbo_[m] |
I´m losing my mind lmao literally no one remembers it but i went on it so many times |
| 18:19 |
|
zimbo_[m] |
yeah it was pretty cool if it ever was a thing (I´m not sure anymore lmaooo) |
| 18:19 |
|
caroline |
It might have been a local customization of like integrating an IRC client into Koha? |
| 18:19 |
|
ashimema |
I imagine it wouldn't be crazy hard to embed an element client |
| 18:20 |
|
zimbo_[m] |
ughh idk, thanks for the help tho! :) |
| 18:21 |
|
ashimema |
I'd love a way to get more people involved int he Koha chatter |
| 18:22 |
|
ashimema |
IRC still holds some back I think.. though I do think the matrix bridge and link to element from the website has helped a little |
| 18:22 |
|
ashimema |
Maybe I'm imagining that though |
| 18:22 |
|
caroline |
Yeah, I'm not sure having it in the staff interface would be such a great idea... we'd be only answering support questions from random library staff |
| 18:22 |
|
zimbo_[m] |
i don´t remember being able to write in it tho |
| 18:22 |
|
zimbo_[m] |
just read the messages |
| 18:22 |
|
ashimema |
Indeed, that is true |
| 18:24 |
|
caroline |
zimbo_[m], are you supported by a company? Maybe it was a special thing to present new features that your company did? |
| 18:25 |
|
zimbo_[m] |
no we also have that but my company is a non english one and there were just english comments in it, saying whats new and kinda answering questions |
| 18:26 |
|
caroline |
it's a cool idea, kind of like an AMA on new features |
| 18:27 |
|
ashimema |
Interesting |
| 18:28 |
|
ashimema |
I do love the idea |
| 18:28 |
|
ashimema |
In a way |
| 18:28 |
|
zimbo_[m] |
I always looked into it when i was bored at work :`) it was really great ngl i found it so interesting |
| 18:29 |
|
* ashimema |
might need to think more about what he writes if the whole world was watching |
| 18:30 |
|
caroline |
this channel here is very interesting. I always have it open on my second screen and read. even if I don't understand everything you learn a lot |
| 18:30 |
|
ashimema |
Scary prospect |
| 18:30 |
|
ashimema |
Yeah, I love it here |
| 18:31 |
|
ashimema |
It would be good to have some more librarian focused chatter somewhere easily accessible though.. I've often thought that |
| 18:31 |
|
caroline |
well, based on the number of people connected, there are a lot of lurkers |
| 18:31 |
|
ashimema |
There's the mailing lists of course.. but they're not quite the same |
| 18:31 |
|
ashimema |
We host a slack for our customers but actually getting them to really adopt it is proving really hard.. the forum we hosted didn't work either.. not did the mailing lists we did |
| 18:32 |
|
caroline |
I was looking into discourse for our customers, but I really don't want to become a community moderator |
| 18:34 |
|
ashimema |
It's not easy |
| 18:34 |
|
ashimema |
We do all sorts of things |
| 18:35 |
|
ashimema |
But it's really hard to get traction |
| 18:36 |
|
caroline |
I guess it depends on the purpose or what you're trying to achieve with it? |
| 18:37 |
|
caroline |
For me, I was looking for a way to field questions like "what do other libraries do for {insert very specific situation I have no idea about}" |
| 18:38 |
|
caroline |
I wanted them to be able to ask each other those questions rather than going through me |
| 18:38 |
|
ashimema |
Yup |
| 18:38 |
|
ashimema |
Same |
| 18:39 |
|
ashimema |
We see such questions pop up on their slack but we don't know the answer ourselves and there's no one lurking from other customers regularly |
| 18:39 |
|
ashimema |
So it always dead ends |
| 18:40 |
|
ashimema |
I'm really interested to know if anyone out there does have more luck with such an effort |
| 18:40 |
|
caroline |
hm... so maybe a forum type thing would be better? |
| 18:40 |
|
ashimema |
Tried that |
| 18:40 |
|
ashimema |
Same problem |
| 18:40 |
|
ashimema |
Discourse |
| 18:40 |
|
ashimema |
We replaced it with slack |
| 18:41 |
|
caroline |
hah! I'll know not to try it then ;) |
| 18:41 |
|
ashimema |
The core issue was timing.. people had questions.. rarely did they have answers |
| 18:42 |
|
caroline |
A user meetup? |
| 18:42 |
|
ashimema |
And they tended to only come by when they had such a question.. so even if they had answers when they finally came to look it was often weeks or months after a question had been asked and garnered no interest |
| 18:43 |
|
caroline |
yeah... people want to take but not necessarily give back |
| 18:43 |
|
ashimema |
We do that too. Those are a bit more successful... Though also difficult to attract people to .. travel budgets and things |
| 18:43 |
|
ashimema |
We tried going online, hosting zoom.. also struggled a bit |
| 18:45 |
|
ashimema |
Only seems to really work online when we lead the discussion.. we do our 'open discussions'.. an open invite zoom + YouTube call about random topics we pick to try and evoke chatter |
| 18:45 |
|
ashimema |
Those work better |
| 18:46 |
|
caroline |
interesting |
| 18:46 |
|
ashimema |
It's funny.. because there's are lots of really cool really knowledgeable people out there |
| 18:46 |
|
ashimema |
When we do manage to get them all taking magic happens |
| 18:46 |
|
ashimema |
Just really hard to open the door |
| 18:47 |
|
caroline |
we did our first "upgrade webinar" last fall and we surprisingly had a lot of people coming |
| 18:47 |
|
caroline |
I think I had one question... but a lot of them told me they enjoyed it |
| 18:48 |
|
ashimema |
I wonder if an inter-koha instances chat inside the staff client would work? |
| 18:48 |
|
ashimema |
Where your admin could pick the libraries it connects to |
| 18:48 |
|
caroline |
interesting |
| 18:49 |
