22:31 wahanui      Congratulations!
22:31 koha-jenkins Yippee, build fixed!
22:29 caroline     have a nice weekend everyone!
21:34 koha-jenkins Project Koha_19.05_D9_MDB10.3 build #96: STILL UNSTABLE in 43 min: https://jenkins.koha-community.org/job/Koha_19.05_D9_MDB10.3/96/
21:18 caroline     https://koha-community.org/manual/20.11/en/html/systempreferences.html#allowholddateinfuture
21:17 caroline     If you go in Administration > System preferences >  AllowHoldDateInFuture
21:17 Guest4680    Thank you very much caroline
21:17 caroline     https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Sandboxes
21:17 Guest4680    Yeah, that's probably what I'll do
21:17 caroline     you can try it in a demo or sandbox if you want
21:16 Guest4680    That's promising
21:16 caroline     I know there is a functionality to allow holds in the future, but I've never used it myself
21:16 Guest4680    Yeah
21:16 caroline     ok so like reserve in the future
21:15 Guest4680    So they need to be able to put in the dates for their reservation and see which resources are available
21:15 caroline     But yeah I think it's totally possible to reserve equipment qith Koha
21:15 caroline     what do you mean by "one big pool of equipment"?
21:14 Guest4680    Would that functionality be available on Koha?
21:14 Guest4680    We have students getting equipment for shooting films. Which means they need to reserve up to 20 resources at once from one big pool of equipment. They need to look at the entire pool and see what is available over a given time period.
21:14 Guest4680    So I work for a film school, and we need something to manage the reservations of many resources at once and I wasn't sure if that was something this software could handle
21:13 Guest4680    Thank you!
21:13 caroline     Don't know if the people who can aswer are around, depending on the question
21:13 caroline     ask away!
21:12 Guest4680    Hello, I was wondering if anyone had a moment to answer a few questions I had about this software
20:23 cait         talljoy++ you know why
19:28 cait         like... have the labelling strange and people start to make things work differently
19:27 cait         i am sometimes not sure if we didn't mix it all up right now
19:27 caroline     reviewing this section in the manual... so I'll try to explain it
19:27 cait         "all libraries" is so wrong there right now
19:26 cait         it's all labelled wrong currently
19:26 caroline     I think I understand...
19:26 cait         that's a fallback = if you haven't set up a rule for a library
19:26 caroline     ok
19:26 cait         no
19:26 caroline     but if the default checkout hold and return policy is for all libraries?
19:26 cait         don't ask me if it works rihgt, but i remember that#s why we kept it :)
19:26 cait         and all rules etc
19:26 caroline     ah!
19:26 cait         maxreserves is a total over all libraries
19:25 caroline     what is the difference between the maxreserves syspref and the Deaful checkout, hold and return policy in the circ rules?
19:17 cait         thank you!

18:33 huginn       Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=23260 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, agustinmoyano, Signed Off , Anonymize (remove) patron data from items_last_borrower
18:33 amoyano      bug 23260 just resurrected from the dead… a proper halloween bug
18:30 cait         on a different computer even :P
18:29 cait         this is weekend cait :)
18:29 caroline     oh, to have a clone... I could be done for the weekend too
18:28 caroline     so... cait1 is done for the weekend, but cait is here?
18:00 cait1        and with that... happy weekend everyone! :)
18:00 cait1        if you run many instances on a server that's super helpful
17:33 cait1        so you can turn it on /off... and then it could also be scheduled by default
17:33 cait1        it woudl be great if it dependendedon a pref
17:33 cait1        amoyano: could also be another switch to cleanup-database
17:22 severine_q   good bye #koha !
16:46 * caroline   goes to eat lunch
16:43 * oleonard   thinks caroline needs lunch
16:28 caroline     anyone else always reads chicken instead of checkin?
16:03 amoyano      Instead of using the cron batch_anonymise, I'll add a new cron just for items_last_borrower
16:02 huginn       Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=23260 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, agustinmoyano, Failed QA , Anonymize (remove) patron data from items_last_borrower
16:02 amoyano      It's for bug 23260
15:58 cait1        what is the cron for?
15:48 amoyano      no, I believe not
15:46 tcohen       is it something that needs to be switched on, on each instance?
15:46 tcohen       amoyano: look at debian/koha-common.cron*
15:35 amoyano      Hi.. just a lil question.. I need to add a newly baked cron job to be installed with debian packages.. could someone point me to the docs for any guide?
15:33 oleonard     Hi amoyano
15:33 amoyano      Hello community!
15:09 * oleonard   looks for small-brain bugs
15:08 tcohen       the gitlab patches aren't pushed yet!
15:07 tcohen       hey
15:05 cait1        hm yeah, i am good at inventing problems too :)
15:04 oleonard     Thanks cait, I'm inventing imaginary bugs because I guess I don't have enough real ones
15:03 * cait1      has no clue what people were talking about but is confused out of solidarity
14:58 * oleonard   is very confused.
14:58 oleonard     ...but after a reset_all I don't see total checkouts or total renewals on the items edit page...
14:45 caroline     ok
14:42 oleonard     No, total checkouts = items.issues, and total renewals = items.renewals.
14:41 wahanui      somebody said biblioitems was not hte right table, cait is talking abou titems
14:41 caroline     biblioitems
14:41 caroline     isn't total checkouts and total renewals at the biblio level?
14:37 oleonard     I guess I'll file a bug.
14:37 oleonard     items.issues and items.renewals are both mapped by default to 952, so I don't think they should be excluded. If they're mapped they'll show up in the table of items for editing.
14:28 caroline     oleonard: I think they are "internal" fields meaning they are used by the system
14:27 oleonard     On the item edit page the table of items can't be configured to hide "Total checkouts" or "Total renewals" because they're excluded in columns_settings.yml... but I don't know why
14:26 lavamind     magnuse: thanks
14:25 magnuse      lavamind: it is reset after a successfull login
14:21 oleonard     Is the issue column "internal" or "obsolete?"
14:21 oleonard     In columns_settings.yml there's a note about "internal/obsolete fields" in the items table, including the issues column.
14:04 lavamind     or is it cumulative for the lifetime of an account?
14:04 lavamind     is the failed login attempts counter reset every day, or some period of time?
14:03 lavamind     hello
13:46 tcohen       amoyano's patches deserve QA as well
13:30 tcohen       kidclamp we overlapped :-D
13:14 tcohen       or the cities one as examples
13:14 tcohen       oleonard there's a libraries table
13:06 tcohen       right
13:06 oleonard     I needed to get counts of itemtypes in checkouts
13:05 oleonard     The case I was looking at was for getting checkouts for a particular patron
13:05 wahanui      i guess the library is asking why we can search isbn with and without hyphens but not the issn... anyone?
13:05 tcohen       and the library
13:05 tcohen       you want the patron for sure
13:05 tcohen       is this for A checkout or for listing them?
13:04 oleonard     tcohen++
13:04 tcohen       and I will just implement it
13:04 tcohen       file  a bug like 'Allow embedding X, Y, X in checkouts'
13:03 oleonard     I finally did some successful tests of using the API to interact with our production database but found that I wished for more :)
13:03 tcohen       see acquisition_orders.json
13:03 tcohen       and then add that header on the request
13:03 tcohen       to the spec
13:02 tcohen       you need to add x-koha-embed: [ item, item.biblio ]
13:02 oleonard     That would be cool :)
13:02 tcohen       sure!
13:01 oleonard     In my case I'm thinking of an external (authorized) application pulling checkout info... So it could be made to return bibliographic and item information in addition to the plain issues data?
13:00 tcohen       oleonard if it is a datatable, it is fairly trivial
12:59 huginn       Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=20212 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, tomascohen, Signed Off , Slowness in Receiving in Acquisitions
12:59 oleonard     I'm not big-brained enough to read the code for Bug 20212, but I was thinking about it when I was trying to see how I might use the checkouts API.
12:58 tcohen       oleonard I'm working with andrew (BWS) on some minor glitches
12:58 tcohen       I am
12:51 severine_q   oh yes please, 20212 !!
12:46 oleonard     tcohen still around?

12:40 oleonard     I wonder if there's any chance for Bug 20212
12:36 wahanui      i guess feature slush is fast aproaching..
12:36 magnuse      oh, feature slush?
12:34 cait1        missed my time window, eh?
12:30 cait1        i signed off, so can't move it
12:30 cait1        20888
12:30 cait1        tcohen: i'd really like some enh patches passed as the deadline is today :)
12:29 oleonard     tcohen: cait1 is cracking the whip, demanding blood, sweat, and tears from the QA team
12:28 tcohen       cait1
12:28 tcohen       what's up, cait?
12:28 wahanui      hola, tcohen
