truth is, we couldn't agree, so everyone is rewriting in their favourite language |

is waiting for the bash version |

ashimema |
hey.. that's easy.. lets re-write it in Perl then? |

* ashimema |
still likes perl.. though wouldn't mind dragging us to a more modern version |

magnuse |
ouch |
| 14:29 |
|
Joubu |
(blablabla) Given these factors, it's challenging to provide an exact timeframe for rewriting Koha in Rust. However, such a project would likely take at least several months to a few years to complete, depending on the specific circumstances and resources available. |
| 14:34 |
|
magnuse |
that is ai's estimate? sounds great! |

Anybody here that could help me learn how to install a plugin from the ktd shell? |
| 17:06 |
|
blawlor[m] |
I have set environment variable PLUGIN_REPO and can see the folder is mounted in ktd in /kohadevbox/koha_plugin |
| 17:07 |
|
cait |
there is a script you can run |
| 17:08 |
|
blawlor[m] |
I did run perl install_plugins.pl |
| 17:09 |
|
blawlor[m] |
it said All plugins successfully re-initialised |
| 17:15 |
|
cait |
that doesn't sound bad - but ti did not work? |
| 17:15 |
|
cait |
oh |
| 17:15 |
|
cait |
did you change the directory in koha-conf.xml? <plugins> |
| 17:15 |
|
cait |
will need the path of your koha_plugin |
| 17:15 |
|
paulderscheid[m] |
Discourse honestly still uses ruby on rails and O.O ember.js in the frontend. A living dinosaur :D |
| 17:18 |
|
blawlor[m] |
cait: this line was commented out in koha-conf.xml so I un commented it <pluginsdir>/kohadevbox/koha_plugin</pluginsdir> |
| 17:18 |
|
cait |
yep |
| 17:18 |
|
cait |
restart_all maybe |
| 17:18 |
|
cait |
to make it work |
| 17:19 |
|
blawlor[m] |
maybe does it need the full path to the plugin? |
| 17:20 |
|
blawlor[m] |
maybe that's the path to the parent folder? |
| 17:20 |
|
paulderscheid[m] |
Do you run ktd w/ the --plugin flag? |
| 17:21 |
|
blawlor[m] |
thought so, I'll try again |
| 17:21 |
|
cait |
is koha_plugin directly your plugin or is the plugin directory inside (hope that makes sense) |
| 17:22 |
|
blawlor[m] |
I think that maybe my issue, I created a folder and cloned the plugin repo inside, so it's not the full path |
| 17:25 |
|
cait |
i think it does expect that there are multiple plugins inside in their own directories |
| 17:25 |
|
davidnind |
blawlor: assuming that you have tried these instructions (from the KTD repository) https://gitlab.com/koha-commun[…]eveloping-plugins |
| 17:25 |
|
cait |
I have some difficulty explaining that well |
| 17:26 |
|
blawlor[m] |
so I think in kohaconf I need <pluginsdir>/kohadevbox/koha_plugin/my-koha-plugin</pluginsdir> |
| 17:26 |
|
cait |
you shoudl not need to list individual plugins |
| 17:26 |
|
cait |
i think |
| 17:26 |
|
cait |
but try it out |
| 17:26 |
|
paulderscheid[m] |
Nah, don't do that <pluginsdir>/kohadevbox/koha_plugin/my-koha-plugin</pluginsdir> |
| 17:27 |
|
paulderscheid[m] |
Just leave it as /kohadevbox/koha_plugin |
| 17:29 |
|
blawlor[m] |
but when I changed it to the full path it did install |
| 17:30 |
|
JasonGreene[m] |
We made the "import" using MarcEdit and our old system has Dewey and the import column is 082$. How can I search Koha on Dewey numbers and what does Koha call it? |
| 17:30 |
|
blawlor[m] |
with some errors but seems like I'm getting closer |
| 17:34 |
|
paulderscheid[m] |
Docker compose mounts the $PLUGIN_DIR in the koha-koha-1 container (just read back, you are obviously aware of this), so your plugin 'my-koha-plugin' should just be in $PLUGIN_REPO/my-koha-plugin on your host. If the format is correct it should install w/o issues. |
| 17:34 |
|
paulderscheid[m] |
That way you can have as many plugins in your $PLUGIN_REPO as you want. |
| 17:34 |
|
paulderscheid[m] |
Sorry not $PLUGIN_DIR in the first sentence, I meant $PLUGIN_REPO |
| 17:35 |
|
paulderscheid[m] |

Jason Greene: I don't know enough to really help, but in the advanced search in the staff interface and OPAC it is the 'Call number' option - but that uses what is in the call number field for an item (952$o) rather than what is in the 082$a |
| 17:52 |
|
JasonGreene[m] |
davidnind: Thanks, I'll take a look and see what we did |
| 17:54 |
|
davidnind |
If you just want to search in the staff interface, then you can create a custom item search field for 082$a (Administration > Catalog > Item search fields) and then use the item search option in the staff interface from the toolbar at the top of the page (Search > Item search) |
| 17:57 |
|
JasonGreene[m] |
I've lost me link, where did you see all the code number 082$a and 952$o ? |
| 17:57 |
|
davidnind |
The item call number (952$o) is not automatically populated with what is in 082$a - so if you have the data in 082$a you may need to do a batch item modification (if that is possible) |
| 18:02 |
|
blawlor[m] |
<paulderscheid[m]> "What errors are you getting..." <- Thanks paulderscheid: I just took a lunch break and am gonna give it a nother try from the beginning now |
| 18:03 |
|
paulderscheid[m] |
That's good. |
| 18:03 |
|
davidnind |
Not sure I understand the question - 952$o is what is recorded for items (any catalog record > add or edit item details), it only shows 'o' when you add or edit item data, but these are all recorded in 952. |
| 18:04 |
|
davidnind |
blawlor: if the instructions don't work in the link I posted from the KTD wiki, let us know and we can get them updated |
| 18:06 |

The old Handy Library manager has its codes and I had to change its code to Koha to do the import. I've forgotten where I saw the Koha codes. Author was 700$a .... Title was 245$a |
| 18:11 |
|
davidnind |
In MARC21 (I only know the basics), author is normally in 100 (for a single author or the main author), then additional authors are in 700, the title is 245$a |
| 18:13 |
|
davidnind |
If you have a full call number in Dewey, then treat it like other item data (like the item barcode, etc) for your import |
| 18:14 |
|
davidnind |
Please take what I say with a grain of salt, I've never done a Koha migration, or imported data from another system 8-) |
| 18:17 |
|
JasonGreene[m] |
Our old system was written in the 90's and is "APOS" ... I'm starting to learn and think that we might have to start the transfer over again. We only have about 18K books yet we have 2 library in our school |
| 18:18 |
|
JasonGreene[m] |
all said with a smile |
| 18:21 |
|
blawlor[m] |
<davidnind> "blawlor: if the instructions don..." <- These instructions do work, but #4 seems to be that you add the full path of each individual plugin in koha-conf, which is slightly different than what Paul suggests that you can have just one folder there with multiple repos in it... (full message at <https://matrix.org/_matrix/med[…]eksbIzpaodcdGiXcG>) |

| 18:22 |
|
davidnind |
Jason Greene: I think that most support companies that help with migration normally have several iterative rounds of testing the import of data in a testing environment, until they get it "good enough". I think it can be harder when you are not familiar with how Koha works or the tools for importing or modifying the data. |
| 18:23 |
|
paulderscheid[m] |
Hi blawlor, the docs are right and I am wrong :D |
| 18:23 |
|
davidnind |
Jason Greene: Sometimes it can take a lot of perseverance (and frustration) when you are doing it yourself! |
| 18:24 |
|
paulderscheid[m] |
I forgot that I do things a little bit different w/ my plugin-tools. |
| 18:25 |
|
paulderscheid[m] |
This is the right file /etc/koha/sites/kohadev/koha-conf.xml, maybe we should add a link to another wiki page. |
| 18:25 |
|
paulderscheid[m] |
The way you had was almost right. |
| 18:25 |
|
blawlor[m] |
it would seem to be a qol improvement not to have to edit koha-conf everytime that you test a plugin |
| 18:26 |
|
paulderscheid[m] |
But instead of using <pluginsdir>/kohadevbox/koha/my-shiny-plugin</pluginsdir> |
| 18:26 |
|
paulderscheid[m] |
you should just point $PLUGIN_REPO to your plugin dir. |
| 18:26 |
|
paulderscheid[m] |
meaning $PLUGIN_REPO=/path/to/my-shiny-plugin |
| 18:26 |
|

Jason Greene: Have you seen this "Newbie guide"? (It does need an update. I think you are more than a 'newbie' though!) https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Newbie_guide |

perseverance is my style... I suggested Koha 5 years ago and the non-IT people went done a different road and paid for old stuff... now we are heading towards the smooth new road and have to make the transfer and "re-learn" the system |
| 18:30 |
|
JasonGreene[m] |
I'll look at the newbie guide |
| 18:31 |
|
davidnind |
Jason Greene++ |
| 18:31 |
|
blawlor[m] |
blawlor[m]: I guess that's a little easier to deal with because it's outside of the container |
| 18:31 |
|
paulderscheid[m] |
You can just do PLUGIN_REPO=<PATH> ktd --plugin up -d |
| 18:31 |
|
paulderscheid[m] |
I think that's how tcohen does it |
| 18:32 |
|
JasonGreene[m] |
Anyone in Kansas City? :-) |
| 18:33 |

Otherwise you can also use this if you want, it's however very wip. |

|
paulderscheid[m] |
https://github.com/LMSCloudPaulD/ktd-plugin-tools |
| 18:35 |
|
paulderscheid[m] |
And the docs are super outdated. I think the --help option is a better reference. |
| 18:37 |
|
paulderscheid[m] |
Or you can do this docker cp <YOUR_PLUGIN_DIR> koha-koha-1:/var/lib/koha/kohadev/plugins && docker exec koha-koha-1 /kohadevbox/koha/misc/devel/install_plugins.pl && docker exec koha-koha-1 bash -c 'koha-plack --restart kohadev' |
| 18:38 |

paulderscheid[m] |
I need to give that project some love, I am using it for my plugins but as I am the only user rn I rarely update the README |
| 18:40 |
|
JasonGreene[m] |
another question. We've added 18K items.... without searching, is there a way to see ALL of them and scroll through them? |
| 18:42 |
|
oleonard |
You could put together an SQL report for that JasonGreene[m] |
| 18:42 |

|
JasonGreene[m] |
sorry ask again, I made one library and need to make a second one and transfer some books. |
| 18:46 |
|
JasonGreene[m] |
I made the second one ... now the "transfer" action |
| 18:46 |
|
davidnind |
Jason Greene: There is also the item search (from the toolbar at the top of the staff interface: Search > Item search) - if you don't enter anything you can a list of all items |
| 18:47 |
|
JasonGreene[m] |
ok, Ill try that |
| 18:50 |
|
davidnind |
once you have the barcodes for the items you want to move, you can use the batch item modification tool (Cataloging > Batch editing > Batch item modification) to update the home library and current library information (you can also do that from the item search results as well) |
| 18:59 |
|
davidnind |
