07:47 alex_a      bonjour
09:41 cait        good morning #koha!
10:11 magnuse     o/
10:15 cait        tcohen: why are you awake?
10:19 tcohen      Manuel
10:19 tcohen      Still has fever
10:20 cait        oh no :(
10:20 cait        hope he feels better soon
10:20 cait        the patron api bug is in SO = ready for QA - was wondering if we should wait for you to finish your patch and QA them together
10:35 magnuse     fever--
10:51 tcohen      cait, of we can QA it, better. I just implemented some changes we agreed with Joubu. I will implement the RFC today
11:02 cait        ?
12:45 tcohen      cait: no need to test them together, that's what I meant
12:45 cait        ah
12:45 tcohen      the bug itself needs some specific tests
12:47 tcohen      we need to get rid of biblio-level itypes
12:51 cait        tcohen: i am not following
12:51 tcohen      bug 16330 can be tested on its own
12:51 huginn      Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=16330 new feature, P5 - low, ---, benjamin.rokseth, Signed Off , REST API: add routes to add, update and delete patrons
12:51 tcohen      bug 19784 I'm working on it, and testing it wil mean checking it matches the RFC
12:52 huginn      Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=19784 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, tomascohen, ASSIGNED , Adapt /v1/patrons to new naming guidelines
12:52 tcohen      bug 19884 makes me think we should get rid of biblio-level itypes
12:52 huginn      Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=19884 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, glasklas, NEW , Improve performance of GetItem
12:52 cait        ah!
12:53 cait        yeah
12:53 tcohen      there are other possible approaches to marking biblio records for other uses
12:53 cait        i feel like we have deprecated it maybe... or should have
12:53 tcohen      item types are for... items?
12:53 cait        hmyeah but theere is the use case of records with no items
12:53 tcohen      and GetItem should probably be dealt with in Koha::Item(s)
12:53 cait        electronic resources, serials etc
12:54 tcohen      what would we need itemtypes for, on a record without items?
12:54 cait        search
12:54 cait        people like to be able to search for serials easily like for their other itemtypes
12:54 tcohen      lets have biblio_types
12:54 cait        i'd love to move it out of the marc
12:54 cait        but... meh search
12:55 tcohen      kidclamp will fix it on ElasticSearch
12:55 cait        we don't have 942 set for all but one use case because it gets overwritten all the time
12:55 cait        not sure he will, our data is still teh same :)
12:55 tcohen      it is just an extra index
12:55 cait        my point was that you want it mixed in
12:55 tcohen      we just need a biblio_type column in the biblio table
12:55 cait        because circulation conditions
12:55 cait        search
12:55 cait        facets
12:55 cait        ...
12:56 cait        at the moment we have it on both levels, needs more thought than just killing or renaming
12:56 tcohen      it is just more work, not a technical barrier
12:56 cait        yeah but we need to gain something by it
12:56 cait        atthe moment I don't see the gain
12:56 cait        by renaming it, if you want the bheaviour to be the same :)
12:57 tcohen      I'm not saying we should rename it
12:57 tcohen      I'm saying we don't need to query the biblio-level itype when fetching each item
12:57 tcohen      there's something wrong in there
12:58 cait        we need the biblio level stuff
12:58 cait        in some cases
12:59 cait        like when determining if you have reached max of holds
12:59 tcohen      so, have the same 'search' behaviour without making thing smore complicated than we need
13:00 cait        *sighs*
13:00 cait        we are talking around each other:)
13:00 tcohen      we are on the same page, just different perspective
13:00 cait        i am not sure wher GetItem is used - it probably shoudl be separate routines for soem cases where we need both
13:00 cait        in some cases you need to look at both levels, so need to deal with that
13:01 cait        and as long as item_level-itypes = biblio is a valid setting ther eis no itemtype to look up on item level
13:01 cait        ever
13:01 tcohen      the problem is not DBIC vs. plain DBI
13:01 tcohen      it is the way we require some information
13:02 tcohen      FTR: using DBIC is using an SQL building lib (SQL::Abstract) that transforms hashrefs into SQL, and then passes it to DBI. The only fat/slow part of DBIC is loading the schemas at startup time
13:06 cait        i feel like we are having at least 2 conversations at once
13:06 cait        sorry, maybe i am just ot understanding today
13:06 tcohen      I'm having several conversations at a time, that's correct :-P
13:06 cait        but it's only the 2 of us...
13:07 cait        are you alright?
13:07 tcohen      I'm not sure
13:07 tcohen      haha
