00:05 bgkriegel      dcook: a cronjob, or put to work koha-index-daemon-ctl.sh
00:08 dcook          Hmm, I don't even see that file anywhere. Is it debian specific?
00:09 dcook          Or maybe just newer than my install
00:09 dcook          jcamins++
00:09 dcook          eythian++
00:20 bgkriegel      sorry, was working on a boring bug. The file: kohaclone/misc/bin/koha-index-daemon-ctl.sh
00:20 bgkriegel      is in master
00:23 bgkriegel      but you can do "rebuild_zebra.pl -a -z; rebuild_zebra.pl -b -x -nosanitize -z" every 2/5/x minutes
00:31 jcamins        dcook: your koha-dev directory is probably well out of date... you might want to run the installer to update to latest master.
00:35 dcook          Hmm, sounds reasonable, jcamins
00:35 dcook          Thanks for the path, bgkriegel. I don't know why it didn't show up in my grepping..
00:54 dcook          Hmm, doesn't look like I can upgrade my koha-dev directory on my own, jcamins. Looks like one needs to sudo for that
00:55 jcamins        That explaind your permissions problem.
00:55 jcamins        *explains
00:55 dcook          ?
00:55 jcamins        Purring cat makes typing difficult.
00:55 dcook          Hehe.
00:56 jcamins        Dev installs should not be installed with sudo.
00:56 dcook          Ahh, I haven't tried
00:56 dcook          I was looking at the documentation
00:56 bag            ah koha-dev shouldn't be root
00:56 dcook          It says:
00:56 dcook          perl Makefile.PL --prev-install-log /path/to/koha-install-log
00:56 dcook          make
00:56 dcook          make test
00:56 dcook          sudo make upgrade
00:56 jcamins        For standard installs.
00:57 jcamins        Just `make upgrade` for dev installs.
00:57 dcook          Intriguing
01:00 bag            time to make the dinners
01:00 dcook          bon appétit, bag
01:02 dcook          Hmm dom or grs1...
01:03 dcook          Looks like I was using dom before
01:05 dcook          Hmm, I don't have all the Perl module prereqs
01:06 dcook          Are any of these enough to blow up Koha?

01:11 dcook          Paul Fenwicks is a friend of a friend
01:11 jcamins        No, none of those are required.
01:11 dcook          Excellent. Thanks, jcamins

01:53 dcook          Cool. Thanks for the info, jcamins.
02:18 eythian_       there are far too many DB dependent modules in master that aren't skipped.
02:18 eythian_       (aren't skipped in tests, that is)
02:18 jcamins        Oh?
02:18 jcamins        Which ones?
02:18 wahanui        Which ones are those?
02:18 eythian_       I've patched about 3 so far
02:19 rangi          3.10 is ok, well it was yesterday
02:19 jcamins        Yes, which ones?
02:19 wahanui        which ones are those?
02:19 eythian_       C4::Breeding, C4::XSLT, C4::RotatingCollections
02:19 jcamins        There haven't been any changes to any of those recently that I recall.
02:19 eythian_       it's possible something the depend upon has changed
02:20 jcamins        Odd.

02:24 rangi          bgkriegel++ #thanks for the signoff
02:24 bgkriegel      rangi: is good to finish it!
02:25 bgkriegel      works very well
02:25 rangi          excellent
02:25 rangi          im going to do the ccsr template next
02:25 rangi          (should be easy just 2 files to touch)
02:25 rangi          then i might do the staff side
02:26 rangi          cos im sick of having to remember a bunch of passwords for the koha i look after hehe
02:26 rangi          but ill do those as sep bugs
02:26 bgkriegel      i'm with frameworks, I'll end up blind
02:26 eythian_       jcamins: oddly, it seems to work if I do it manually
02:26 rangi          heh
02:26 eythian_       it's just during the package build they fail
02:27 jcamins        eythian_: yeah, for me too.
02:28 jcamins        Oh well.
02:29 eythian_       I don't know what'd differ in the environment.
02:35 jcamins        eythian_: I just built master packages successfully a few days ago.
02:36 eythian_       I can't figure it out, it doesn't make sense.
02:36 jcamins        And I have not pushed anything that wasn't UI-only.
02:36 jcamins        So maybe stale data in your pbuilder environment?
02:36 eythian_       maybe I'll try cleaning everything and trying again
03:02 tweetbot`      [off] twitter: @kohails: "#kohails  Using the Cart in Koha 3.6 http://t.co/wuIwjLmf"
03:08 eythian_       cleaned out everything I could, no change :/
03:15 eythian_       jcamins: what's odd is that 3.10 works OK, so it's something in master
03:15 jcamins        That's very odd, because I can't see anything, and, as I said, I built a package off master three days ago.
03:16 eythian_       might see if I can automate a git bisect to run over night.
03:17 jcamins        Sounds like a good idea.
03:20 druthb         o/
03:31 eythian_       rolled this back a fair way, still failing :/
03:32 eythian_       need to build master packages more.
03:37 eythian_       OK, I've found a commit that builds. I can hopefully script a bisect to run from there.
04:02 eythian        Bisecting: 9 revisions left to test after this (roughly 3 steps) ... getting there.

04:28 huginn         eythian: The operation succeeded.
04:28 druthb         wizzyrea: I'm blaming you for the weather in Lawrence.  Since you left, it's been indecisive ever since.
04:29 wizzyrea       hmm
04:29 wizzyrea       I think wellington may have a corner on the market for indecisive weather
04:30 druthb         *I* have been wandering around like I don't know what to do since you left, so I'm not surprised that the weather is, too.
04:30 wizzyrea       this morning it rained, then it was fine, and then it sprinkled, and then it was fine, and then it was a little windy, and then it rained, and now it's more or less fine.
04:30 druthb         lol
04:35 druthb         yesterday was very windy here, after some rain on Saturday.  The trailer rumbled and boomed all day!
04:36 wizzyrea       oh you had a *day* where the weather was the same.
04:36 wizzyrea       a whole day!
04:36 druthb         :P
04:36 wizzyrea       oh look there's rain coming over the hill again.
04:37 druthb         Tomorrow, windy and cloudy with a chance of sun and earthquakes.
04:37 wizzyrea       tomorrow: NOBODY KNOWS
04:37 wizzyrea       seriously.
04:37 wizzyrea       not even the metservice.
04:37 druthb         So does the metservice just roll d20 and pick from a list?

04:43 dcook          I suppose it doesn't really need confirmation from us, since one of the Index Data folk have already pointed out that it is a bug...

06:22 JGD            hi, if u just enter the ISBN of a book, will the other details automatically get filled in?
06:23 JGD            this is regarding new book cataloguing
06:24 wizzyrea       it will if you use z39.50 targets
06:24 wizzyrea       to bring in your records
06:25 JGD            u mean if click on z39.50
06:25 wizzyrea       yep
06:25 wizzyrea       and put in your ISBN there
06:26 JGD            i dont need to add any other sources or libraries ?
06:27 JGD            ok thanks will do

07:45 JGD            hi
07:46 JGD            if we have an old book which does not have ISBN or barcode - then how does one enter in koha
07:47 cait           you can try a search by title
07:47 cait           or author
07:47 cait           and if you don#t find it
07:47 cait           you catalog it.
07:47 cait           look at the search options the z39.50 form provides
07:47 JGD            u mean we fill in all details and the ISBN would be generated?
07:48 cait           if it does not have an isbn
07:48 cait           it does not have one
07:48 cait           that's just like it is, isbn are not mandatory

12:48 magnuse        so how does the SIP server know which koha installation to serve? environment variables? is it possible to have SIP for several instances on the same machine?
12:50 kf             magnuse: not sure about instances... but we have it working for a library with more than one branch
12:50 kf             and different entries in the xml file for each branch
12:51 magnuse        yeah, i see how to do that
12:51 magnuse        i'm trying to figure out how to do it with more than one koha installation on the same machine
12:52 magnuse        kf: do you know if that library is alone on it's server?
12:52 kf             yeah it is
12:52 magnuse        ah
12:52 kf             I remember some patches from robin for starting/stopping sip
12:52 kf             maybe there is a note on one bug?
12:53 magnuse        ah, that would be cool

13:16 oleonard       Hi #koha
13:23 kf             h oleonard :)
13:27 * jcamins_away just watched a Coronet instructional video from 1950s on "making good use of your leisure time."
13:27 jcamins_away   So much fun!
13:28 jcamins        Excellent way to start a day. :)
13:28 kf             lol
13:28 kf             jcamins: what was the recommendation?
13:29 drojf          i bet it had to do with bugzilla
13:29 jcamins        Photography, bird watching, sewing, a part-time job, or piano playing.
13:30 drojf          hahaha
13:30 drojf          a part-time job
13:30 drojf          way to spend your leisure time
13:30 jcamins        Yeah, that was my favorite, too.
13:30 drojf          like, why not do it unpaid
13:30 drojf          oh, that is what i do here :)
13:31 drojf          not that i have done much lately
13:32 kf             go and study!
13:32 kf             :P
13:32 drojf          i'm at the library. have to change the import before studying. so they have stuff to play with while i'm gone :)
13:38 jcamins        "And baseball games and taffy pulls. I think they're swell!"
13:38 * drojf        kicks kde in the balls
13:38 drojf          and restart
13:44 * drojf        has fun watching patrons.
13:44 drojf          [off] someone is trying to play audio tapes. he looks old enough to have used them before. but he already killed the first one
13:45 kf             ouch
13:46 drojf          [off] it would help me if he wouldn't be making the weirdest faces while trying to listen to those things. i cannot work like that ;)
13:46 kf             scheuklappen? :P
13:46 drojf          he is right in front of me :(
13:47 kf             folding wall
13:47 drojf          [off] they are all freaks around me. what's going on today?
13:48 kf             [off] you only notice themmore because you are procrastinating ;)
13:49 drojf          [off] one is talking to himself the whole time, the other continues to shake his table which is in turn shaking my table
13:50 drojf          [off] black metal and club mate, to the rescue ;)
13:50 jcamins        [off] Black Metal Chef? :)
13:52 drojf          [off] http://veganblackmetalchef.com/ ? :D
13:53 jcamins        Yes! "Then we chop the peanuts!"
13:55 kf             [off] hmpf? :)
13:55 kf             jcamins: did you see my note about about.pl on the gpl license change bug?
13:55 jcamins        kf: Yes.
13:56 kf             ah ok
13:56 kf             separate bug?
13:56 jcamins        Yes please.
13:56 kf             np - we just should not forget doing that :)
13:57 drojf          i have to write a test for that indicator feature i did not do myself and am not sure what all is supposed to do. that is going to be fun ;)
13:57 Dyrcona        jcamins: Cut the tofu. Turn the plate.
13:57 kf             hi Dyrcona
13:58 drojf          hail seitan. that i really evil, from a no-gluten point of view
13:59 jcamins        Dyrcona: yeah! It's as much fun as these instructional videos from the 50s!

14:03 jcamins        Is there a reason we don't use datatables on the patron search results page?
14:04 oleonard       jcamins: It would have to be done with AJAX pagination and that's hard?
14:04 jcamins        oleonard: ah. Good reason, then.
14:05 oleonard       If you pull the string on Web Developer Barbie's back she says "AJAX pagination is hard!"
14:05 jcamins        Hehe.
14:06 kf             lol
14:08 jcamins        How do I make serial claims work?
14:08 jcamins        It tells me I need a template defined, but not what it should be called.
14:08 kf             notices
14:09 kf             just choose the right module, the code can be anything :)
14:09 kf             you can have more than one serial claim - like one in english and one in german
14:10 jcamins        Thanks.
14:11 oleonard       Did I just hear someone whisper "Serials test data..." ? I'm sure I did.
14:11 jcamins        oleonard: where
14:11 jcamins        *?
14:12 oleonard       That's what I'd like to know.
14:12 jcamins        Oh.
14:13 kf             it's probably not so easy to provide
14:14 kf             records are not enough, you need the content from... a lot more tables
14:14 kf             and if you create items for your subscriptions which you shoudl do for testing because it complicates things then it gets even more complicated
14:15 oleonard       I agree :(
14:17 datadoctor     Has anybody noticed a weird branch where the IndependantBranches preference overrides the AutoLocation preference?
14:18 datadoctor     So if you have IndependantBranches set to "Don't Prevent" you lose control of your ip range?
14:19 datadoctor     if (C4:Context->boolean_preference('IndependantBranches') && C4::Context->boolean_preference('AutoLocation')){

14:19 datadoctor     [from the Auth.pm]
14:20 datadoctor     So to limit access by ip address range you have to have AutoLocation set to require and IndependantBranches set to "Prevent"
14:20 datadoctor     Any other combination means you can log in from anywhere.

14:31 drojf          datadoctor: what exactly is your question?
14:32 drojf          or, is there a question? :)
14:33 datadoctor     I guess I am thinking that if people aren't aware they have to have both preferences set correctly, then their system can be easily hacked because anyone can get to the login interface
14:34 datadoctor     so the documentation needs to be improved, or the AutoLocation preference needs to take prioirity.
14:34 datadoctor     If you set an ip address range and then choose "Require" you to log in from that range, it should not be overridden.
14:34 drojf          i see, makes sense
14:34 datadoctor     By this construction: "if (C4:Context->boolean_preference('IndependantBranches') && C4::Context->boolean_preference('AutoLocation')){"
14:36 datadoctor     I want to remove the first clause checking the IndependantBranches, but I operate in a single branch environment, and I'm not sure of the implications for Multi-Branch environments
14:36 drojf          i would not say that the system »can be easily hacked« though
14:36 datadoctor     I can try to think that through...
14:36 drojf          or is there something i don't know about?
14:36 drojf          like, security issues with the staff client
14:36 datadoctor     Well, if you can remotely access a Koha installation
14:37 datadoctor     And you can get to the login screen, there is no timeout, no scrambled text to enter, and no limit on password attempts.
14:37 drojf          require staff to choose safe passwords ;)
14:39 datadoctor     It's a good idea. However anyone with borrower privileges can change their own password.
14:39 datadoctor     I like your optimism though.
14:39 drojf          you can set the lenght of the password
14:40 drojf          but i see your point
14:40 drojf          it's a feature, it is supposed to work
14:40 datadoctor     Thank you. That is a good idea. I didn't think to set the length of the password.
14:40 * oleonard     shudders at the thought of having to enter a CAPTCHA upon each Koha login
14:41 datadoctor     I don't like CAPTCHA either.
14:41 drojf          our staff would probably kill me if i require passwords with a minimal length of 20, but i should do it anyway
14:41 datadoctor     ;)
14:42 oleonard       I'll send post-it notes for your monitors!
14:42 drojf          at the university people still think the best password is something like %/r.CZa1, but please max 8 characters or something
14:42 drojf          lol oleonard
14:42 kf             we limit access by ip too
14:42 kf             but using a firewall
14:43 drojf          we did too, but i could not access it from wifi. since i don't have an office and use my own laptop, that did not work
14:43 kf             ah right
14:43 drojf          wifi only has dhcp
14:43 datadoctor     That might be the best solution for our library, but right now we have our Koha server facing out.
14:44 drojf          we'll see how it is done once we are live
14:44 datadoctor     So staff go out for name resolution, then return. If I could route staff side requests internally that would solve my problem.
14:44 drojf          we are not allowed to leave the univerity network anyway at the moment
14:46 datadoctor     Thanks for helping me think this through. I think I will edit the code locally so that I do not check for the IndependantBranches setting. As for others...
14:46 datadoctor     they will have to test their security.
14:47 kf             I am not sure why it shoudl be tied to indybranches... maybe a bug?
14:48 drojf          i would of course like to encourage you to look into the implications of a change in koha source code, it sounds like it is not supposed to be the way it is now
14:48 datadoctor     The idea may have been that "Don't Prevent" access from other branches would allow the other branches to log in remotely?
14:48 drojf          otherwise you will make your updates more complicatd
14:49 datadoctor     But they should log in locally...then request that materials be sent to their branch.
14:49 kf             datadoctor: but if you wanted that... you coudl maybe solve it by configuration? or does ip only take one, I never tried
14:50 * magnuse      has a customer who has talked about combining ip-limitations with email confirmations. use 'AutoLocation' for "office IPs" and then let staff who want to log in from off site generate an email, click on a verification link in the email, and then the ip the request comes from is opened for that session only
14:50 datadoctor     I'm single branch here, but thinking about the implications if the " if (C4:Context->boolean_preference('IndependantBranches')" is removed - then the ip range test works correctly, but may affect remote login in libraries with remote branches.
14:51 datadoctor     Thanks magnuse! That is interesting.
14:51 datadoctor     We didn't realize we had a security problem until our outreach librarian logged in remotely.
14:53 datadoctor     magnuse - your method might allow us to secure the ip address range, but allow outreach to access.
14:53 kf             datadoctor: you only have 1 branch?
14:53 datadoctor     one branch
14:53 magnuse        datadoctor: yup, that is the idea, i think
14:53 kf             so why not just turn indiependentbranches off?
14:53 kf             maybe a better workaround then modifying the code?
14:53 datadoctor     I believe it is turned off.
14:53 kf             the setting should not make any difference for you
14:53 magnuse        datadoctor: talk to Viktor about it if you see him popping his head in here :-)
14:54 datadoctor     Thanks!

15:33 magnuse        \o/ success!
15:37 drojf          yay!
15:57 datadoctor     I am thinking that you hit the nail on the head kf. If singlebranchmode is turned on, that should disable independent branches and disable the authentication issue in the Auth.pm.
15:57 datadoctor     So instead of checking for  if (C4:Context->boolean_preference('IndependantBranches') && C4::Context->boolean_preference('AutoLocation')){
15:58 datadoctor     It would first check if singlebranchmode is on - if it is, it would only check for C4::Context->boolean_preference('AutoLocation'){
15:58 datadoctor     and skip the independent branches test
16:00 datadoctor     For multi-branch operations, with remote access, they should already be aware about security issues...
16:00 drojf          i just found "FIXME FIXME FIXME" in my code. i like how i decided to express the FIXMEcity at that point
16:04 gmcharlt       any instance of DONTFIXMEIWANTOLIVE is clearly an insertion by the bug itself :P
16:05 jcamins        Heh.
16:05 jcamins        gmcharlt++ # for the new MARC::Record.
16:05 jcamins        gmcharlt: did you do any testing to see if the new LibXML code made a difference with Koha?
16:06 gmcharlt       jcamins:not yet; I planning to do that for both Koha and Evergreen before recommending that the projects bump up the minimum version of MARC::File::XML required
16:06 jcamins        Incidentally, did I comment on my findings about XML parsing performance with koha-conf.xml?
16:07 jcamins        It's very interesting... XML::Simple with ExpatXS is more or less equivalent to XML::LibXML::Simple.
16:07 gmcharlt       I dunno, did you? ;)
16:07 jcamins        YAML is, of course, much faster.
16:07 gmcharlt       naturally
16:08 jcamins        Yeah. But that kind of puts paid to the idea that a different XML parser would make a difference for our use case.
16:09 gmcharlt       yeah, that has always seemed to me to be the very definition of a micro-optimization
16:10 gmcharlt       if anything, I would think that caching would be suffice
16:10 jcamins        Oh, caching is much preferable.
16:14 drojf          that february 14 is getting crowded. valentine's day, one billion rising and now "i love free software"-day?
16:16 drojf          oh, looks like they did it last year already
16:22 jcamins        drojf: don't you love free software every day?
16:23 drojf          actually, i do
16:23 jcamins        Ugh. opac-showmarc.pl should use C4::XSLT.
16:23 drojf          i think the point is to thank your favourite projects and donate to the fsf(e) ;)
16:24 jcamins        Well, as RM, you're very welcome. :P
16:24 drojf          [off] would be a good day for ddg to give us some monetary love ;)
16:25 oleonard       jcamins: I suspected you were going to say that :P
16:26 jcamins        oleonard: yeah, I'm pretty predictable.
16:26 jcamins        Fixing the immediate problem like that is acceptable, though.
16:27 drojf          if i would want sru/z39.30 to give me a JSON output option i would have to hack zebra, not some part of koha, i suppose?
16:28 jcamins        Yes.
16:28 * drojf        shudders
16:28 jcamins        Well...
16:29 jcamins        arguably a better option would be to implement a Z39.50 server for Koha using SimpleServer.
16:29 drojf          something about search rewrite?
16:29 drojf          :)
16:29 jcamins        Someone proposed doing that.
16:29 drojf          heh
16:29 jcamins        With the SimpleServer-based Z39.50/SRU interface, it'd be much easier, I think.
16:29 jcamins        magnuse: around?
16:33 drojf          btw i had to modify the public report feature to give me jsonp instead of json for a project, is that something worth putting into git (with a syspref for callback or something)?
16:34 jcamins        Yes, I think so.
16:34 drojf          ok, will do that some day if i don't forget
16:35 kf             drojf: for sru... you could try a special stylesheet maybe?
16:35 kf             I think marcelr said they use their own stylesheet with sru
16:35 kf             nto sure how easy it is to transform marcxml to json using xslt...
16:36 jcamins        kf: horrifyingly painful. :(
16:36 * kf           refers to marcelr's talk at kohacon in edi
16:36 * kf           think jcamins must be exaggerating
16:36 kf             :)

16:37 jenkins_koha   Owen Leonard: Bug 9471 - Use DataTables on serials claims page
16:37 huginn         04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=9471 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, oleonard, Pushed to Master , Use DataTables on serials claims page
16:40 drojf          kf: i actually took a look at that, but it generated some default header thing that i don't know where it comes from. i did not have much time so i went with the public report instead. but maybe i shouls look at that again
16:41 santy          hello everybody, I was wondering if it is possible while checking out to give a specific HOUR on which the item must have been returned (not just a specific date at 23:59 pm).  If not, is it possible to set up a closing hour per library for this purpose?
16:41 drojf          in newer koha there is hourly loans
16:41 drojf          newer as in 3.8 i think
16:41 kf             I think you can set a specific time now... but not sure if that is in 3.10 but no opening times
16:41 drojf          3.8+
16:42 santy          I have 3.8.9.1a
16:42 kf             it might be possible to do useing specify due date and koha 3.8+ more likely 3.10 for using the date due like hat
16:42 drojf          1a?
16:42 santy          let me check
16:43 drojf          how safe is hourly loans nowadays?
16:43 drojf          does it work with fines now?
16:43 kf             santy: I just checked, you can set a time with specify due date (in circ) with 3.10.3
16:43 santy          sorry its 3.08.07.000
16:43 kf             but it's not calculating that automatically yet
16:45 santy          humm, ok, but it's a feature that is being worked on, right?
16:45 jcamins        There has been very little progress on it.
16:46 santy          ok, thanks
16:46 jcamins        Certainly I would not anticipate it being fixed in 3.12.
16:47 santy          I also wanted to ask if there have been zebra indexing issues on 3.8 (other than having to use cron instead of the daemon)
16:47 drojf          :(
16:47 kf             hm it does work... but it's missing bits and pieces probably
16:47 jcamins        What do you mean by issues?
16:48 santy          like not indexin every record because of diverse reasons (special characters, etc)
16:49 jcamins        You'd have to give very concrete examples, but probably the problem is that you should be using ICU.
16:50 santy          ICU... that is a configuration parameter during installation right?
16:50 jcamins        Yes.
16:50 drojf          that depends
16:50 drojf          does it work with packages now?
16:51 oleonard       Interesting... 255 patrons in our database whose card numbers are completely out of the range of cards we have printed
16:51 jcamins        drojf: I'm not sure.
16:51 santy          can that parameter be set up after installation? or at least verified?
16:52 santy          ok I found it
16:52 drojf          santy: you can do it afterwards
16:53 santy          it says "Not Using"...
16:53 drojf          no
16:53 drojf          that is not it
16:53 drojf          that is the one telling koha that ICU is used
16:53 drojf          it does not activate or deactivate it
16:53 santy          ok, how can I find out, I installed evthing from packages
16:53 drojf          check http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Correcting_Search_of_Arabic_records
16:54 santy          ok
16:54 kf             if you installed from packages it's not activated :(
16:56 drojf          oleonard: that's funny. perhaps they have borrowed the 150 records that do not get a control number from my script, while more than 30k do
16:57 oleonard       drojf: The Koha shadow economy
16:57 santy          hmmm, well the only special chars we use are like áéíóúñ ...
16:57 drojf          santy: ignore the arabic part
16:57 santy          But i'll try and activate ICU and see if more records get indexed
16:58 santy          which is the arabic part?
16:58 drojf          on the wiki page for icu
16:58 nch            Hi, does anyone know the best way to use Koha through Windows? Have you had luck with Virtualbox or something like that?
16:58 oleonard       nengard demo/training = new bugs for us! Every time :)
16:58 jcamins        nch: VirtualBox or other virtualization software is best.
16:58 oleonard       nch: If you must use Windows, of course
16:59 nengard        yep
16:59 nengard        why not steal all the ideas and share them with you all?? :)
17:00 nch            Sadly, we must. We are a small non-profit and are trying to get a library set up on a really small budget. Is it best to install VirtualBox & Koha on a web server?
17:01 santy          drojf: what is ICU for... preparing marcxml strings for correct indexing?
17:05 drojf          it is for indexing records that include non-latin script. i think the cases you described could be done without it
17:06 drojf          i don't know what your problem is. are not all records indexed, or do you just not find them? that are two different things
17:15 santy          drojf: thank you, I think I'll have to find out, it is probably indexing fine
17:16 drojf          santy: if you do not use icu, there is a language mapping file. that might need fixes for your non-ascii letters
17:17 santy          where can I learn more about that language mapping file? can it be configured?
17:18 slef           nch: I think the VirtualBox will become a webserver itself, so be aware that the machine you put it on will be accessible to library users (who may be on the internet, if your library's public catalogue is internet-accessible)
17:18 koyauni        hi guys,
17:18 wahanui        hi guys, is there a way to search for and delete duplicate entries in koha?  I got a spreadsheet from our librarian which I converted to marc file and imported to koha. however (despite bigbrovar's warning) some of the files in the spreadsheet she gave me were duplicates of entries already in koha.
17:18 slef           wahanui: forget hi guys,
17:18 wahanui        slef: I forgot hi guys,
17:18 jcamins        wahanui: forget hi guys,
17:18 wahanui        jcamins, I didn't have anything matching hi guys,
17:19 drojf          santy: there is a bug needing signoff for a german file, that might give you an idea
17:19 koyauni        we have just got problem with our koha, ethe result of searches is not linked to the item found and it give 401 error , please help if you have any idea
17:20 drojf          santy: http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=9248
17:20 huginn         04Bug 9248: enhancement, P5 - low, ---, mirko, Needs Signoff , Add a German Zebra language definition file
17:20 koyauni        this is an example, search for culture some results are shown but the error occur when clicked http://library.koyauniversity.org/cgi-bin/koha/opac-search.pl?q=culture
17:22 santy          looks nice drojf... I'll check it out thanks
17:22 oleonard       koyauni: The error is a 404, which is an important distinction. It means the record wasn't found.
17:22 oleonard       koyauni: Sounds like a problem with your index?
17:23 koyauni        can do a reindexing
17:24 koyauni        is it the command # sudo koha-rebuild-zebra --full -v
17:26 oleonard       Can anyone confirm for koyauni?
17:27 drojf          i think it is miising the instance name
17:27 drojf          missing
17:27 koyauni        I need to stop and restrat and the reindex, am I right, my instance name is LIBRARY
17:37 koyauni        this guy says run these command to fixed it, but I run Debian 6+ and I do not know about deamon
17:38 koyauni        http://koha.1045719.n5.nabble.com/bad-records-error-404-td3063474.html
17:38 koyauni        what do you day in Debian please
17:39 santy          Is it possible to reindex only a branch or even only a record?
17:40 koyauni        I want to stop the whole and then do a total reindexing
17:40 koyauni        what are the commands please,
17:41 drojf          santy: you can give ranges at least
17:41 oleonard       Bummer, git bisect blames me for Bug 9572
17:41 huginn         04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=9572 trivial, P5 - low, ---, oleonard, NEW , Opac info tooltip from branches is not well positioned
17:41 santy          drojf, ok that sounds really sweet, where can I find out?
17:43 jcamins        santy: there's a script called rebuild_zebra_sliced.sh. I've never used it, but that should do it.
17:43 drojf          santy: i dont know if a "man koha-rebuild-zebra" or "koha-rebuild-zebra -h" does anything, otherwise you would have to look for the .pl file.
17:43 drojf          ah and there is the thing jcamins mentions, that i also have never used
17:43 jcamins        I don't think you can do it with koha-rebuild-zebra.
17:44 jcamins        So you have to run rebuild_zebra_sliced.sh using sudo as your instance-koha user.
17:44 jcamins        (replace "instance" with your instance's name)
17:44 santy          ok as cc-koha user
17:44 drojf          you can do single records or like "the first 100" or stuff like that
17:44 santy          but sudoing
17:45 santy          and that script is in misc?
17:45 talljoy        misc/migration_tools
17:45 jcamins        drojf: you can? That must be new.
17:45 santy          ok
17:45 jcamins        drojf: I had thought you could choose to do the first n records, but not any other subset.
17:46 santy          superb, thank you
17:47 talljoy        there is $where in rebuild_zebra.pl
17:47 talljoy        could use that perhaps to limit to biblionumber < xxx  ?
17:47 * talljoy      has never done so
17:49 jcamins        talljoy: hmm... that does ring a bell with me, now that you remind me.
17:49 drojf          jcamins:  'where:s'; 'length:i';  'offset:i' . not sure what the "where" does
17:49 jcamins        --where="biblionumber <= 100" I think.
17:49 talljoy        claims to allow a where statement to be added.  the example is where itemtype=Book
17:50 drojf          $strsth.=qq{ WHERE $where } if ($where);
17:50 drojf          lol
17:50 drojf          whatever that might mean ;) but you might be right
17:51 drojf          maybe it works for branch even?
17:51 talljoy        --where                 let you specify a WHERE query, like itemtype='BOOK'
17:51 talljoy        or something like that
17:51 jcamins        drojf: I don't think so... branches are in the items table.
17:51 drojf          ah
17:51 drojf          makes sense
17:52 talljoy        it looks like it applies it to biblioitems though.
17:52 talljoy        http://pastebin.com/9bSc8usk
17:53 talljoy        so even the example given of itemtype wouldn't work here
17:53 talljoy        curious....
17:54 drojf          heh
17:54 talljoy        oddly enough i suppose you could specify something like pages>300 .
17:55 * talljoy      would mock this usage...but imagines there is a library somewhere who want this
17:55 jcamins        Hehe.
17:55 jcamins        You're probably right.
17:55 santy          I want this
17:56 talljoy        :-D
17:56 talljoy        then there you go.
17:56 talljoy        oh and i do see itemtype in biblioitems.   <need to break out the reading glasses>
17:56 santy          ok, I'll try to "exploit" this
17:56 talljoy        good luck santy!
17:57 santy          thanks
17:58 koyauni        can someone direct me to reindexing zebra please, It sreached but I can not fine it
18:04 slef           koyauni: packaged or tarball?
18:04 slef           wahanui: reindex zebra?
18:04 wahanui        slef: i don't know
18:04 slef           wahanui: help
18:05 drojf          wahanui: initiate self-destruct sequence
18:05 wahanui        drojf: i'm not following you...
18:05 drojf          at least he is answering me
18:06 koyauni        sorry I keep looking and searching to solve this issue,
18:06 oleonard       koyauni: You installed using packages right?
18:06 slef           koyauni: yeah, it's fine, just ignore anyone who tries to help, that'll work(!) :-(
18:07 * slef         goes to do something else
18:07 koyauni        packaged or tarball? koha is 3.10.00.000
18:07 koyauni        i used common installation
18:08 koyauni        and we had no problem, this is just happend recently
18:12 koyauni        I ran this and now it says no result is there :(  sudo koha-rebuild-zebra -v –full `/usr/sbin/koha-list`
18:12 koyauni        may be it takes some time
18:12 koyauni        I hope I did not do something stupid :(
18:13 cait           don't run it with sudo
18:14 cait           it will cause permission problems
18:14 cait           and your zebra won't work
18:14 cait_afk       sorry, will be back later
18:15 koyauni        so should I remove SUDO, but that is in the instruction provided at Koha here http://koha-community.org/faqs/zebra-indexing-wont-work-fix-it-aka-search-stuff-up-help/
18:16 koyauni        well what ever it did, now I do not get any results at all, I am not sure if it still working create new indexing
18:21 datadoctor     rebuild with -b -v - see if it halts during the process
18:23 koyauni        do I need to stop it first
18:24 koyauni        you mean koha-rebuild-zebra -v -b –full `/usr/sbin/koha-list`
18:24 datadoctor     that's what I'm talking about
18:25 datadoctor     the verbose flag -v helps detect problem records that may be halting the index process
18:25 datadoctor     specifically problem biblios that halt the -b indexing
18:27 datadoctor     using a -x flag can also be helpful for rebuilding the MARC XML indexing, but for troubleshooting you will save time with -b -v
18:27 datadoctor     you can stop an indexing script at any time, but you will be left with an incomplete index
18:27 koyauni        then I will run this koha-rebuild-zebra -v –full `/usr/sbin/koha-list`
18:27 koyauni        koha-rebuild-zebra -v -b --full `/usr/sbin/koha-list`
18:28 datadoctor     I am thinking that the --full covers both the -a and -b flag - can someone correct me if I am wrong?
18:29 koyauni        please!
18:29 koyauni        someone!
18:29 wahanui        i heard someone was missing
18:31 datadoctor     so again, for troubleshooting purposes, you might omit the --full, and do a rebuild with -b -v first, then if that works, -a -v, that way you get the biblios and the authorities.
18:31 datadoctor     the -b -v gives you your search results, to if you don't see any errors and you still have no results, there is a separate problem going on
18:33 koyauni        so I should run it as koha-rebuild-zebra -v -b `/usr/sbin/koha-list`  first
18:33 jcamins        --full is for rebuild. -b and -a are irrelevant for koha-rebuild-zebra, as both bibs and authorities are always handled by it.
18:33 datadoctor     Thanks jcamins, I usually use the script from misc/migration_tools/rebuild_zebra.pl
18:34 datadoctor     Sorry to give out bad information koyauni!
18:34 jcamins        datadoctor: if you have packages you should always use koha-rebuild-zebra. As you do not, you don't have any choice in the matter.
18:34 datadoctor     :/
18:35 jcamins        You can always upgrade to packages later. :)
18:35 datadoctor     So you are already doing the right rebuild koyauni! I hope it works better for you this time.
18:35 koyauni        it is package installation
18:36 * drojf        heads home
18:36 koyauni        Zebra 2.0.44 (C)  this is my zebra
18:37 koyauni        so only this should works then  koha-rebuild-zebra -v --full `/usr/sbin/koha-list`
18:37 koyauni        or only koha-rebuild-zebra
18:38 datadoctor     There is one update to zebra, 2.0.54, but 2.0.44 is very similar.
18:38 cait_afk       I might have been worng about the sudo
18:38 cait_afk       I don'tknow if that's a problem with indexing with packages
18:38 koyauni        :(
18:38 koyauni        help!
18:38 cait_afk       i misread what you wrote earlier
18:39 koyauni        i followed this
18:39 koyauni        http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Commands_provided_by_the_Debian_packages
18:42 koyauni        I did this, I hope it will work > koha-stop-zebra library then > koha-start-zebra library, then > sudo koha-rebuild-zebra -v --full
18:43 koyauni        is there any way to check whether it is indexing, or process is moving
18:44 datadoctor     not sure why that one line in the wiki says sudo, when all the rest do not...
18:45 koyauni        I am a only a student do not much about that, but used it
18:45 koyauni        but it is logical question
18:48 datadoctor     The full indexing could take a while, depending upon your processor speed and RAM, could be around an hour and a half for a mid-size library. Usually more like 30 to 40 minutes though.
18:50 koyauni        is this correct then > koha-stop-zebra library then > koha-start-zebra library, then > sudo koha-rebuild-zebra -v --full
18:52 datadoctor     It should be the same, but instead of sudo koha-rebuild-zebra - v --full, I would omit the sudo, and use koha-rebuild-zebra -v -f
18:53 datadoctor     if you have an immediate permissions error, then you would need the sudo, otherwise don't use it.
18:55 koyauni        when I run that it says exporting authority ====================  Records exported: 0 ==================== REINDEXING zebra ==================== skipping biblios ==================== CLEANING
18:55 koyauni        what does that mean
18:57 datadoctor     It is likely that it is not seeing your mysql database.
18:57 koyauni        waw why, how did that happen
18:58 koyauni        I can see from admin mysql Ver 14.14 Distrib 5.1.63, for debian-linux-gnu (x86_64) using readline 6.1
18:59 datadoctor     Your database appears to be intact and functional.
19:00 datadoctor     So why is zebra not seeing it?
19:00 koyauni        I did sudo koha-rebuild-zebra -v --full library
19:01 koyauni        has that anything to do with it
19:01 talljoy        and you do have authorities loaded in the database?
19:04 koyauni        that has never been an issue, I am sure what has happend
19:08 datadoctor     I would look at the zebra-authorities.cfg and the zebra-biblios.cfg - for me they are in koha-dev/etc/zebradb and at the koha-conf.xml. Check the paths.
19:09 datadoctor     Also verify that your environment variables are correct - it appears they are, but good to double-check. Also did you restart the server?
19:11 koyauni        the things is that this has been a fully functional koha and this indiexing issue just happened
19:11 datadoctor     That's why restarting and rebuilding might be your best bet.
19:12 datadoctor     But if the rebuild still fails...you might need to seek support from one of the great Koha support services.
19:12 koyauni        so I did this and I hope it will work, koha-stop-zebra library then > koha-start-zebra library, then > sudo koha-rebuild-zebra -v --full
19:12 koyauni        i wait for an hour and check later
19:13 datadoctor     I am wishing you best of luck on your rebuild. Will check back
19:13 koyauni        thanks
19:36 talljoy        can someone tell me what in the data drives the search for 'currently available items'?  i've checked for NULL in onloan, 0 in itemlost and a valid 942$c and still cannot limit my searches to only available items.  i get no results
19:36 talljoy        on 3.8.8
19:37 jcamins        talljoy: currently available items does not work as a limit in any version of Koha.
19:37 talljoy        i saw the bug 4481.  but on some installs i've got it at least returns something.
19:37 huginn         04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=4481 major, P1 - high, ---, koha.sekjal, Patch doesn't apply , Search's Limit to Available filters out many available items
19:38 talljoy        is there another bug report or is that it?
19:38 jcamins        That sounds right.
19:38 talljoy        thanks.
19:42 oleonard       Should we have a bug to remove the option until it can be fixed?
19:42 cait_afk       there was discussion about this
19:43 cait_afk       it got an id
19:43 cait_afk       it works in some situations I was told
19:43 cait_afk       so people don't want to remove it but you can hide it now
19:43 cait_afk       iirc
19:44 cait_afk       hope that made sense
19:45 oleonard       Yes
19:45 talljoy        it's odd that it works at times.  and yes cait_afk it made sense.
19:45 talljoy        thanks
19:45 * talljoy      breaks out the jquery
19:45 cait_afk       talljoy: css should work too :)
19:46 talljoy        better yet, i'll toss this one over to the opac guru here. ;-)
19:46 cait_afk       the patch adding the id was not too long ago, not sure if it's in your version yet
19:46 cait_afk       oleonard: thx for your answre about the tooltip :)
19:46 cait_afk       even if it's not the pathc I hoped for :P
19:47 oleonard       cait_afk: The problem confounds me :(
19:47 cait_afk       now you made me look up confound
19:47 jcamins        talljoy: it works only in libraries that have exactly one item per bib.
19:47 talljoy        well that's interesting.
19:47 oleonard       cait_afk: Checking out the jQuery widget now
19:47 cait_afk       oleonard: you are a hero :)
19:47 oleonard       jcamins: That sounds rather uncommon
19:47 jcamins        It does.
19:48 talljoy        and doesn't match exactly what i've seen either.  (not that i'm seeing accurate limits)
19:48 oleonard       cait_afk: And of course bumping the jQueryUI version introduces a 1-pixel display problem on tabs >:(
19:48 cait_afk       ew
19:49 jcamins        talljoy: it's not that you won't get results in other situations, it's that the results will be accurate only in that one situation.
19:49 talljoy        that makes sense.
19:50 jcamins        For some definition of "sense," anyway. ;)
19:51 oleonard       I'm going to start my own Koha support company for all the libraries who have only one item per bib
19:52 cait_afk       oh? :)
19:53 talljoy        and one item type and one branch right oleonard?
19:53 * talljoy      dreams of such a support contract.
19:54 cait_afk       talljoy: it would get boring fast :)
19:54 talljoy        cait_afk: very true!  part of what i like is that this job is never boring.
20:00 cait_afk       me too :)
20:00 drojf          me three :)

20:09 * drojf        is not sure what he 'three'd' on
20:09 cait_afk       that easy libraries with one branch, one itemtype and only one item per book would be boring ;)
20:09 wizzyrea       the job is never boring
20:09 cait_afk       morning wizzyrea
20:10 cait_afk       drojf: but I am glad you trusted us ;)

20:25 wizzyrea       fantastic

20:31 wizzyrea       :) thank you
20:34 jcamins        chris_n: how on earth did you figure out the datatables+jeditable stuff for the quotes editor?
20:34 jcamins        I'm shamelessly cribbing off your work for a different project, and it is fiendishly complex.
20:34 * wizzyrea     proposes it has something to do with "he's brilliant"
20:34 chris_n        jcamins: indeed it is
20:34 chris_n        but not due to my brilliance
20:35 * chris_n      has spent the morning in samba+ldap purgatory
20:35 chris_n        jcamins: its really not bad once you get a handle on what's going on with datatables
20:36 chris_n        and very slick things can be done with it all
20:36 jcamins        I finally got datatables loading my data happily, but as a result I have killed the saving.
20:36 chris_n        ouch
20:36 * rangi        pops in
20:36 rangi          if we could rip out tinymce and replace it wiath that
20:36 rangi          that would make our lives a lot easier
20:37 jcamins        rangi: I'm using tinymce too.
20:37 jcamins        jEditable doesn't support rich text... does it?
20:37 rangi          tinymce has been removed from debian
20:38 jcamins        A quick Google search says "sure, why not?"
20:38 oleonard       rangi: Why?
20:38 jcamins        Huh.
20:38 cait           [off] wizzyrea: http://librarygeekgirl.de/pics/Auswahl_009.png
20:39 rangi          well tinymce2 anyway which we use has been, cos its obsolete
20:39 * wizzyrea     faints
20:40 * cait         feels guilty
20:40 rangi          so we could move to 3
20:40 wizzyrea       no fait from happiness
20:40 * jcamins      is using tinymce3.
20:40 rangi          or get rid of it all together
20:42 cait           oleonard: you pass qa :)
20:42 oleonard       Hooray!
20:42 * cait         hopes wizzyrea does not faint again
20:42 jcamins        Hmm... jeditable+markitup will not do what I need.
20:43 oleonard       I guess my commit message on Bug 9172 fails to mention that I upgrade to version 3.5.8

20:56 jcamins        No I will not do your homework for you.
20:57 drojf          do i have a dejavu?

21:11 drojf          that did not sound like he wants us to vote on the bug
21:13 cait           he probably just has really no opinion
21:14 jcamins        I don't think you have to update the bug with the fact that I don't have an opinion.
21:14 cait           I was joking
21:17 cait           um
21:17 drojf          »Shocking: RM does not have opinion on proposed icon removal. Read all about it on Bugzilla« … nah
21:17 cait           what is $DBversion = "3.11.00.016"; doing?
21:17 cait           it looks like it untranslates a lot of my translated permissions.

21:20 wizzyrea       oh. well I'm sorry :(
21:21 * wizzyrea     is making an omelet
21:21 jcamins        Mmmm. Omelets!
21:21 cait           wizzyrea: is that an attempt to distract me?
21:21 wizzyrea       nope, just pointing out that making an omelet requires breaking eggs
21:22 cait           it coudl be done without breaking eggs
21:22 wizzyrea       but yes, we can probably fix that
21:22 cait           well, not the omelett maybe... not without some special equipment
21:22 wizzyrea       right, we'll add some mushrooms or something.
21:22 wizzyrea       ;)
21:23 wizzyrea       copious amounts of butter
21:24 cait           wizzyrea: you could check for the bad text
21:24 cait           instead of ofr the flag
21:24 cait           so if someone corrected or changed, it would not overwrite
21:26 wizzyrea       yep I'll look into it

21:26 cait           might not e correct
21:26 cait           I think tha tis what  INSERT INTO `userflags` VALUES(5,'permissions','Set user permissions',0);
21:26 cait           does

21:35 eythian        hi
21:35 drojf          hi eythian
21:37 cait           hi eythian
21:39 rambutan       gmcharlt: think you had a passing interest in this previously, it's been updated a bit, and we're going to do some more work on it starting soon. https://github.com/AaronOgle/libpac
21:39 gmcharlt       rambutan: indeed, thanks for that
21:41 jcamins        rambutan: what does it do?
21:42 rambutan       It's a public access control system. Controls patron logins, time allocations, printing controls, etc
21:42 jcamins        Ah.
21:42 rambutan       A la Envisionware, PC-Cop, Cassie, et al
21:44 wizzyrea       very cool
21:44 rambutan       Server side is MySql and web interface in node.js, client side is pure linux base with python code
21:46 rambutan       it's probably at pre-alpha right now, but just needs some feature code on the server side to bring it up to beta.
21:48 rambutan       Major thing it lacks is a SIP interface. We have some sample code for for SIP, but expect that will require the team to do a snake dance to get implemented.
21:48 jcamins        Why didn't you use libki?
21:49 drojf          i'm afraid to ask but who was it that mentioned putting koha to google summer of code?
21:50 jcamins        drojf: I said that someon else should do it.
21:52 magnuse        rambutan, jcamins: there's also Mycel from Oslo public library: https://github.com/digibib/mycel
21:52 jcamins        magnuse: I was just thinking about you earlier.
21:53 magnuse        awww...
21:53 magnuse        ;-)
21:53 jcamins        I am in the midst of staking MARC through the heart repeatedly, and thought you would like to know. :)
21:54 * magnuse      does a happy dance and cheers jcamins on
21:54 magnuse        how?
21:54 jcamins        magnuse: I'm working on a cataloging interface that is natively... non-MARC, anyway.
21:55 jcamins        It has user-specified fields, input is via rich text, etc., etc.
21:55 magnuse        and then "something" is turned into marc behind the scenes, or?
21:55 jcamins        It's stored as "something."
21:55 magnuse        ah
21:55 jcamins        XML.
21:55 magnuse        even better
21:55 wahanui        well, even better is what oleonard said just after that
21:55 magnuse        heh
21:56 magnuse        any rdf/linked data?
21:56 jcamins        Eventually.
21:56 magnuse        yay!
21:56 magnuse        is it for koha, or more generic?
21:56 jcamins        I'm also running roughshod over the distinction between bibs and authorities.
21:56 jcamins        Much more generic.
21:57 magnuse        ah
21:57 jcamins        It's the cataloging tool _I_ need _now_.
21:57 magnuse        so a standalone cataloguing thingy?
21:57 jcamins        Yup.
21:57 magnuse        hehe scratching_itches++
21:57 jcamins        So far it doesn't do much.
21:57 jcamins        But I've learned a lot about datatables.
21:57 magnuse        hehe
21:58 jcamins        What I can't figure out is, why does the jeditable go away after I tab into it?
21:58 magnuse        just make sure it will still work when i have marc replaced by rdf
21:58 magnuse        ;-)
21:58 jcamins        Since my MARC crosswalk is still "TBD," that's not a problem.
21:59 magnuse        here's my latest foray into marc-slaying: https://github.com/MagnusEnger/MetaQuery
21:59 magnuse        working on the backend now
21:59 magnuse        when i have time, which i really don't have...
22:00 magnuse        oops gotta run - have fun folks
22:00 wizzyrea       give leonard a squeeze
22:01 magnuse        :-)
22:01 jcamins        Nifty!
22:12 dcook          Good morning, #koha
22:17 druthb         rangi about?
22:18 gaetan_B       bye!
22:18 eythian        druthb: he's out at a client for the morning.
22:18 druthb         Thanks, eythian.  :)
22:19 druthb         @later tell rangi are we going into 3.8.x and 3.10.x string freeze on Friday-ish?
22:19 huginn         druthb: The operation succeeded.
22:19 drojf          »What is your plan for dealing with disappearing students? Please be as specific as possible.« GSOC sounds a little threatening
22:19 jcamins        Stupid tabs.
22:20 jcamins        Everything else is working, so why won't they?
22:21 drojf          any objections to me being mentor and student for koha together? i could use $5k ;)
22:22 jcamins        Heh.
22:23 drojf          [off] apart from the google thing it does not sound to bad :P
22:23 cait           drojf: suggest tying them to a chair?
22:24 cait           hm good night #koha :)
22:25 rangi          yup druthb
22:25 druthb         Awesomeness.  I'll be adding the ccsr files for 3.10.x at the same time, so one commit... :)
22:26 jcamins        Okay, I made it work, but now I get a javascript error.
22:26 jcamins        And working.
22:26 * jcamins      is not amused.
22:26 * druthb       crosses her eyes at jcamins.
22:33 jcamins        Well, since it does work, I think I will ignore the problem.
22:34 tweetbot`      [off] twitter: @normnz: "Both #Mahara *and* #KohaILS now support Mozilla personas https://t.co/3qH3NP32 thanks @ranginui and @fmarier"
22:36 cjh            \o/
22:39 jcamins        Ha!
22:39 jcamins        Fixed it _and_ eliminated the javascript errors.
22:40 jcamins        Hey, why don't we just use datatables+jeditable for our cataloging module?
22:47 drojf          »You also grant Google the right to use your name, city, state, country, likeness, Project deliverables and statements made by or attributed to you relating to Google or your Project Submission or Google Summer of Code, for purposes of publicizing, advertising, or otherwise promoting the Google Summer of Code or similar future programs without any payment to you or to any other person or entity.«
22:47 drojf          my… likeness?
22:47 cjh            they only want to clone you, nothing to worry about.
22:47 drojf          ah, alright then :)
22:48 wizzyrea       your picture.
22:48 drojf          [off] i'm not sure if they would like to do ads with my statements about google
22:50 drojf          anyway, it is no problem to be a student ina project you already contriubuted to, so i am seriously considering to force someone of you to be a mentor and hand in one of those projects i never have time for
22:51 jcamins        If it's search, I'll be your mentor. :P
22:51 drojf          hahaha. i'm sorry. it is not search :D
22:51 * jcamins      will not be your mentor then.
22:52 jcamins        I might also consider being your mentor if it is an overhaul of the cataloging module.
22:52 jcamins        Or authorities.
22:52 wahanui        authorities are records that describe particular entities.
22:53 drojf          that program is about showing students the fun of programming free software, not showing them the evils of your project
22:53 cjh            hahaha
22:54 dcook          Detail pages that actually showed the MARC fields that corresponded to the bibliographic framework they were catalogued in would be pretty sweet...
22:54 dcook          Was there a limit to the number of students a mentor could have?
22:55 dcook          It's not exploitation if the students are paid?
22:55 drojf          i have not read the mentor part yet
22:55 dcook          Wait...
22:55 dcook          :p
22:55 jcamins        dcook: I don't think anyone involved in Koha would be willing to take enough students for it to be an issue for Google.
22:55 dcook          I'm sure you're right, jcamins.
22:56 drojf          (e) That Google may publicly host a copy of the finished Project code;
22:56 drojf          yeah, free mirror
22:56 gmcharlt       I've been org admin for GSoC for Evergreen before ... no way do you want to have more than one student per mentor, ever
22:56 dcook          I was just having a daydream about enlisting corps of students to do all the projects that we don't have time to do
22:56 drojf          lol gmcharlt
22:56 * jcamins      was thinking a half a student or a quarter student per mentor would be more reasonable.
22:56 gmcharlt       in fact, I'm strongly of the opinion that each student should have at least two mentors, or at least a mentor and somebody willing to be an active secondary mentor
22:57 dcook          Sort of like a teacher and a teaching assistant?
22:57 gmcharlt       and even beyond that, it's even better for the entire active community to be ready to act as mentors, at least in terms of interacting with the students
22:57 drojf          7.1 Under no circumstances should the student's project involve a Koha search rewrite.
22:58 jcamins        lol
22:58 cjh            heh nice try drojf
22:58 rangi          drojf: html5 circulation app
22:58 gmcharlt       as I said in #evergreen just today ... Google looks unkindly on actually killing the students ;)
22:58 drojf          rangi: that is one
22:58 drojf          of the thinks i was thinking about, i mean
22:59 rangi          cool
22:59 eythian        http://alethiosaur.tumblr.com/post/42375815502/inspired-by-worthington-libraries-blind-date-with
22:59 rangi          the nice thing is, it totally works on android with firefox too
22:59 gmcharlt       also, another tip: the point of the execise isn't really to get code from the student
22:59 jcamins        gmcharlt: good thing, because that's not likely to happen.
22:59 drojf          err. s/thinks/things
22:59 rangi          altho we did get biblios out of the last koha one
23:00 gmcharlt       I mean, of course you want that to happen, since you want the student to succeed, but the student's education, as it were, should come first
23:00 jcamins        Okay, so it happens occasionally.
23:00 rangi          so far 100% of the time on koha heheh
23:00 rangi          but yeah, chris catalfo was a special case
23:01 * gmcharlt     would actually be quite optimistic about Koha's chances if we were to apply, given that on the whole we've done a good job of bringing in new developers anyway
23:02 drojf          [off] if not koha, google can still sponsor my openstreetmap app "so you do not rely on google for navigation". i am not sure that will work out though
23:04 jcamins        gmcharlt: we still have the problem of finding someone to volunteer to organize it.
23:04 dcook          Agreed, jcamins.
23:05 dcook          But I think gmcharlt is right too. I actually wrote a post the other day about how wonderful all of you have been in helping myself and others to get more involved in developing Koha.
23:05 gmcharlt       jcamins: I'd be up for acting as org admin if a sufficient number of folks are willing to consider being mentors
23:06 drojf          i volunteer to be an easy student that does not need too many mentors :)
23:06 gmcharlt       but caveat mentor: at the very *lieast* one should plan on a time committment 5 hours a week during the course of GSoC to be a good mentor
23:07 dcook          How long is the GSoC? 12 weeks?
23:08 drojf          June 17: Students begin coding for their Google Summer of Code projects.
23:08 drojf          September 23: 19:00 UTCFirm 'pencils down' date. Mentors, students and organization administrators can begin submitting final evaluations to Google.

23:09 bag            @bug 8215
23:09 huginn         bag: 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=8215 new feature, P5 - low, ---, kyle, Needs Signoff , Add Course Reserves
23:09 bag            oh needs sign-off - anyone up for it :)
23:09 gmcharlt       and potential mentors in particular I'd expect to be involved in the student selection process
23:09 bag            I'll trade you by testing one of yours that needs sign-off?
23:09 dcook          I'll take a look, bag
23:10 bag            sweet thank you!
23:10 dcook          Whew. It's not small!
23:10 bag            oh no :(
23:10 bag            yeah it's not small
23:10 bag            I think it's failed before and khall-away has made the correct changes
23:11 drojf          can we have a signoff-project too? we could call it… git experience? ;)
23:12 jcamins        Heh.
23:12 bag            HA
23:12 * gmcharlt     starts a new project on gitorious called pun-killer
23:13 gmcharlt       :-P
23:13 cjh            drojf: when do you graduate?
23:13 bag            dcook: I got another one - that maybe better for you
23:13 drojf          cjh: ha, don't ask ^^
23:13 bag            @bug 7710
23:13 huginn         bag: 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=7710 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, kyle.m.hall, Needs Signoff , multiple holds per title
23:14 drojf          cjh: no seriuosly its probably not going to happen before beginning of next year
23:14 cjh            drojf: heh sorry :p, in *theory* I graduate mid June.
23:14 drojf          my typing sucks today
23:15 drojf          cjh: i think you could still play in the GSOC then
23:16 drojf          As long as you are accepted into or enrolled in a college or university program as of May 27, 2013, you are eligible to participate in the program.
23:17 cjh            drojf: I meet the requirements, but im not sure I would have sufficient time during the week to work on it.
23:17 drojf          its funny that they give a number of hours for mentors, but none for students
23:18 jcamins        drojf: 40 hours/week.
23:18 cjh            drojf: they mention a little about how it depends on the difficulty of the tasks
23:18 dcook          bag: All right. I'll give the test plan for 7710 a whirl
23:19 drojf          jcamins: come oooon. students! with money! you don't expect that :P
23:19 bag            cool thank you
23:19 bag            dcook++
23:21 drojf          so is that semester break time in the US? because its like right in the semester for me
23:21 cjh            in the US they have a big summer holiday
23:21 jcamins        Yeah, no school May/June-August.
23:21 bag            I think in march they have "spring break"
23:22 drojf          with 20h/week jobs and writing my thesis it sounds pretty easy to put another 40h/week in ;)
23:22 gmcharlt       cjh: yeah, we all gotta farm during the summer
23:22 cjh            heh
23:22 bag            that's farmers tans gmcharlt
23:23 gmcharlt       bag++
23:36 dcook          Not looking good, bag :/
23:36 dcook          But I think it might be my circ rules
23:36 dcook          Koha certainly does have way too many different places that affect circ rules
23:40 bag            yup there are a lot
23:45 dcook          Mmm, I think I see...
23:49 eythian        jcamins: 1b4a26691529eec39319585f12a67575ca2b476d is the build-breaking patch. I haven't looked into why yet.
23:50 jcamins        Hm. And the follow-up didn't fix it?
23:56 dcook          It did end up being a bug, bag. I marked it as "Failed QA". That's the right procedure at the sign-off stage, right?
23:57 bag            your comments are enough thanks
23:57 rangi          yep
23:57 bag            khall-away: can look at it and then write up a patch and change it to needs sign off :)
23:58 bag            oh whoops - your comments are enough (for me)  left that part out :)  but yup failed QA
23:58 dcook          I was confused for a second there
23:58 dcook          Thanks bag and rangi :)
