18:19 cait[m]          maybe it depends on the type of error
18:19 lukeg            just have to start with some TT that is invalid
18:19 lukeg            but I can recreate by using any notice
18:19 lukeg            cait[m]: I was testing something else in AUTO_RENEWALS_DGST when this happened to me
18:18 cait[m]          I have seen explosions, but not on the start page - which notice did you edit?

17:17 cait             bye all and have a nice weekend!
17:05 davidnind        aude_c lucyvh marie_luce - thanks for attending the docs meeting!
16:55 davidnind        nice!
16:54 caroline         I recently found this website https://genrandom.com/cats/ It helps when things get too stressful

16:53 aude_c           Thanks! See you next time
16:53 aude_c           sorry, had to duck out for another meeting and catching up now
16:48 davidnind        Will try again, and add manually if it doesn't
16:48 caroline         *drama
16:48 caroline         Hopefully all the dramam is still top come
16:48 cait             heh
16:48 davidnind        I don't think it is working properly yet - last time I ran it I basically had to do manually
16:48 caroline         Didn't think the meeting would go so much over... Still 0-0 Brazil-Croatia at 1 minute before the end!
16:46 cait             the general irc on the wiki hasn't linked / no new page was created
16:46 cait             tcohen maybe, but the script appears broken still
16:45 caroline         Who do I need to ping to run the script?
16:44 caroline         there we go!

16:41 cait             might need to see how things change with daylight savings again, but we should be good for a while now then
16:41 davidnind        as long as the time works for you all, I'm OK
16:40 caroline         ok sorry about that davidnind! :( You are way more dedicated than I am
16:40 davidnind        it is
16:40 davidnind        I'm happy to get up early once every month, so not na issue for me
16:40 cait             4 am for davidnind i think?
16:40 cait             4pm works for me - I think anything arlier is too hard to nz (even this is bad)
16:39 caroline         and NZ, I guess this is the middle of the night?
16:39 caroline         this time is good for me, what about europe?
16:39 cait             +1
16:39 caroline         Jan 19?
16:39 caroline         maybe third week?
16:38 caroline         second week of january? or is that too early?
16:38 cait             +1
16:38 caroline         ok so thursday?
16:38 davidnind        I think it was "Friday" because I made a mistake..., so maybe the Thursday?
16:38 caroline         just to avoid conflict and meeting-itis
16:38 cait             wednesdays usually
16:38 caroline         I don't see the dev and general meetings in the agenda, what day are they on?
16:37 cait             at least here people often leave early
16:37 cait             friday is not ideal at this time
16:37 caroline         Is this a good day? friday?
16:36 caroline         #topic Set time of next meeting

16:33 caroline         #topic Next steps
16:33 davidnind        +10
16:33 caroline         I think we should do more frequent meetings so that we don't do 2hour meetings each time lol!
16:32 cait             heh
16:32 caroline         #action caroline needs to branch manual in january
16:32 caroline         #agreed branching for 23.05 will happen in January 2023
16:32 cait             t
16:32 cait             so we could put a reminder for nex
16:32 cait             are we aiming for monthly meetings?
16:32 caroline         yup of let's go with that
16:32 cait             +1
16:32 caroline         that I know of
16:32 davidnind        OK with me, if everyone else is OK with that?
16:32 caroline         There isn't anything being pushed in Koha for 23.05 now anyway
16:31 caroline         Ok maybe we can branch in January?
16:31 davidnind        I'll make a concerted effort to get the needs documenting queue down from 90 - all of these relate to 22.11
16:31 cait             that's fair
16:30 caroline         I can try to cherry-pick if it's clear in the merge message, but I can't guarantee I will always do it, especially if there are a lot and/or conflicts
16:30 cait             but if there is not much action on catching up on features, better to branch maybe
16:30 cait             maybe a month would be ok
16:30 caroline         still no decision on branching though... we can do like this meeting and start fresh for this cycle with a new branch and try to stay up-to-date?
16:28 caroline         #action add manual translations on agenda for next meeting
16:28 cait             but we don't transfer the translation work into the manual repo
16:28 cait             they are build from the manual repo, so the contents are correct
16:28 caroline         ok
16:28 wahanui          translations is another endpoing IMO
16:28 cait             translations
16:28 cait             but we shoudl refresh po files on the different branches (will add to agenda as a topic for next time)
16:28 caroline         when you say the website manuals are out of date, you mean on translations or on actual content?
16:27 cait             maybe translations shoudl go on agenda for next time
16:27 cait             I don't think it#s going ot happen/be fixed soon
16:27 caroline         ok
16:27 cait             i did
16:26 caroline         We need to tell bernardo about this one?
16:26 cait             and the website manuals are terribly out of date - not reflecting the work doen at all
16:26 cait             so at the moment... if people translate, there is nowhere they can see their translations
16:26 cait             the latest versions have no nightly preview - the last is 21.05 https://translate.koha-community.org/manual/
16:25 cait             4. Translation files and preview versions of manual updated each night  > this is no longer happening
16:25 cait             looking at the wiki link davidnind posted:
16:25 cait             we also need to push po files to the repo again - those you see above should have been mostly translated actually :(
16:24 caroline         cons of branching early: little chance of every functionality being cherry-picked for each version
16:24 davidnind        I'm still confused about how things should happen https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Documentation_management#Translating_the_manual
16:24 caroline         pros of branching late: more functions are documented
16:24 caroline         pros of branching early: access to translations
16:23 cait             bit, this appears to still work at least: https://koha-community.org/manual//22.11/de/html/serials.html
16:23 davidnind        My focus for the next little while will be working through these
16:23 cait             there are no translated manuals before branching
16:23 cait             hm yes, that's a thing
16:23 davidnind        There are about 90 odd bugs in the needs documenting queue, so I would suggest leaving for a little
16:22 caroline         wasn't it for translations that you wanted to branch?
16:22 cait             22.11 links to the manual nicely it looks like: https://koha-community.org/manual//22.11/en/html/ works
16:22 caroline         So branching early would mean that the manual for that version would not reflect 100% the functionalities in Koha, this is already the case however since we are so behind
16:21 caroline         I said before that we don't have the (wo)manpower to cherry-pick everything like they do in Koha
16:21 cait             I'll quickly check in oe of the demos
16:21 cait             wodners if the manual link still works without branching
16:20 caroline         Do we branch right away at the same time as Koha, even if the manual doesn't reflect that version of Koha, or do we wait later?
16:20 cait             heh
16:20 caroline         I know we have this debate every cycle
16:19 caroline         Branching was my topic
16:19 cait             ok to move on
16:19 reiveune         bye
16:18 cait             maybe it will trigger some ideas/attention too
16:18 cait             thank you
16:18 caroline         I'll add the options to the bz
16:18 caroline         We can do 1) on our own, but we need dev for 2 and 3
16:17 cait             as said, happy to volunteer for the foot work... but need help :)
16:17 cait             nicely
16:17 cait             yep
16:17 caroline         does that summarized it?
16:17 caroline         #info current options 1) write the system preference descriptions as "[Use|Don't use] blah blah" 2) somehow add context to the strings like we do in Koha 3) somehow change how the strings are extracted so that each syspref is extracted individually like in Koha
16:17 cait             the context also need to be visible in the po of course... so you see which pref you are trnslating it for
16:16 cait             a Do without context... is hard, can be mulitple things really
16:16 cait             Example: CheckPrevCheckout - Do, Do not ...
16:15 cait             once
16:15 cait             every line goes in po, lines that are exactly the same, can only be tranlstaed ones
16:15 cait             #link https://koha-community.org/manual/22.11/en/html/accountspreferences.html for an example
16:15 cait             if we want to keep the current format I think so
16:14 davidnind        so we need to indicate that the option values should be translated individually, so they can be done in context?
16:14 huginn           04Bug https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=29063 major, P5 - low, ---, david, ASSIGNED , [DOCS] Manual: Translation issue with repeated strings in system preferences
16:14 caroline         #info The problem in bug 29063 is that while in Koha strings for each syspref are separate and can be translated differently, in the manual, they are all bunched together
16:14 cait             as said, I'd be happy to take on the task to update the manual for all the prefs - but I need some help figuring out a solution
16:13 cait             it might be tied to TT
16:13 caroline         I think he was the one who did the context in Koha
16:13 caroline         We could ask julian maybe?
16:13 cait             like we started to do in koha?
16:13 cait             is there a way to add context maybe?
16:12 aude_c           no, I can imagine it happening in many languages
16:12 caroline         I understand the problem, I'm just not sure how to go about solving it
16:12 cait             because I believe not only German had that issue...
16:12 cait             the pref strigs for one pref are all separate, even same strings are not mixed together
16:11 cait             for Koha the po files are built in a way that allows it, but the manual doesn't reflect that
16:11 cait             and hoped you'd have ideas...
16:11 cait             I am happy to rewrite to whatever... but I need the strings to differentiate more
16:11 caroline         like opac|staff interface|staff interface and opac|none
16:10 cait             good question
16:10 caroline         mkay, what about those with more options thatn two?
16:10 cait             instead of the multi-line thing?
16:10 cait             [Use|Don't Use] cash registers with the accounting system to track payments. Default: Use or so?
16:09 cait             I mean... could we imagie doing something like...
16:09 cait             are we stuck on how we format those?
16:09 caroline         Hm... it's a bit tricky
16:09 cait             it just doesn't work for the preferences
16:09 cait             which is the main reason we haven't finished the manual translation to German yet
16:09 cait             so I am stuck
16:09 cait             but... in the manual translations, they only show up one time for all preferences...
16:08 cait             that's means... my Don't use/Use translate to a lot of different things
16:08 cait             to make the grammar work
16:08 cait             I can't change where the ___ goes in Koha, so I often don't do a literal translation of use/don't use
16:08 cait             with ___ being Don't use, Use
16:07 cait             So we have something like: Asks: ___ cash registers with the accounting system to track payments.
16:07 cait             Right, maybe this is a Gemran issue
16:07 huginn           04Bug https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=29063 major, P5 - low, ---, david, ASSIGNED , [DOCS] Manual: Translation issue with repeated strings in system preferences
16:07 caroline         Next is Translation issues for system preferences - Bug 29063 cait?
16:07 davidnind        caroline++
16:07 caroline         is that ok?
16:06 caroline         #action davidnind to check scripts and translations tweaks for a switch to markdown and report back
16:06 davidnind        Happy to revisit once I've done some more work, but consensus seems to be to stay with rst
16:05 cait             maybe revisit?
16:05 caroline         ok, so is there a decision about markdown?
16:04 luvyvh           I can stay for another 10 mins
16:04 * ashimema       will be around a little longer too
16:04 davidnind        I'm OK
16:04 cait             ok for me
16:04 caroline         We are already overboard on time, but I think since this is the first meeting in a while, it's ok to go over?
16:04 davidnind        I'll do some more work - and share a copy - no real tweaks required 🙂
16:03 caroline         Do we have a consensus that rst is not that bad and a switch would require a lot of tweaks?
16:03 cait             I think using both in parallel... might not be ideal, but I'd be open for switching to markdown for the whole manual
16:03 davidnind        Happy to leave for the moment if you are okay with rst
16:02 davidnind        I just think it is a bit more straight forward, one less thing to learn - headers, paragraphs, links/refers/images/notes/warnings etc
16:01 luvyvh           I find rst fine for the small edits I usually do
16:00 davidnind        I've had a couple of goes at converting using command line tools - seemed pretty straight forward
16:00 caroline         What is the + of a switch? Is it just the headers?
15:59 cait             like... creating our labels or so? I don't really know, just wondering what we should check on for a switch
15:59 davidnind        hadn't thought of that for translation - happy to see what is required
15:58 cait             are there rst features that don't transport to markdown?
15:58 cait             woudl be switching the whole manual be an option?
15:58 cait1            because they can be finicky too
15:58 cait1            but if we want to do it, i'd love a test run with the tarnslation tools done first
15:57 ashimema         that's my thoughts too
15:57 davidnind        I personally think it is easier using markdown than rst, headings are a lot easer - but apart from links/references pretty much similar
15:57 ashimema         cait1++
15:57 cait1            you'd have to learn 2 syntax depending on what you want to edit
15:57 ashimema         google docs is by far the easiest for end users.. but the little fixes required after using pandoc to convert it to rst are vaguely erksome.. but not terrible
15:57 cait1            It woudl be nice, but wonder if it coudl also be confusing to someone
15:56 * ashimema       has been experimenting a little with vscode plugins and they do make the process a little simpler.. not quite WYSIWYG yet.. but closer
15:55 ashimema         or using a more wysiwyg editor for rsy in vscode.
15:55 ashimema         like using google docs and then running it through a script to convert to RST..
15:55 ashimema         personally I'd stick with rst and instead of trying to introduce markdown, focus on what editors can do to help people..
15:55 davidnind        it basically lets you use Markdown (with some constraints) for new pages - basically a package like the theme - was really simple to setup
15:55 cait1            i think markdown is also more a thnk devs know already, but others might still have to learn
15:54 cait1            hm it's a point
15:54 ashimema         honestly.. I love markdown.. but I don't think it's different enough to rst to really warrant it..
15:54 cait1            also translations scripts etc.?
15:54 cait1            how would that work? would we need to make changes to the build process?
15:53 caroline         davidnind, Any interest in being able to use Markdown to make it easier to contribute (for new sections anyway) - have been experimenting locally using the MyST parser
15:53 caroline         #topic Content development guidelines
15:53 * ashimema       might be a bit addicted to Koha ;P
15:52 caroline         You do so many things behind the scenes

15:52 caroline         Cool! Thanks ashimema++ !
15:51 caroline         #info to appear on the board, you need to change the status from Needs Documenting to RESOLVED
15:51 ashimema         that's all i had to say
15:51 ashimema         happy to accept any idea's on how to improve that process.. reduce the pain in any way
15:50 ashimema         if you want to appear, when you do a docs thing, remember to update the bugzilla status to show it's been submitted 🙂
15:50 ashimema         it rewards even just going through the 'Needs documentation' queue and triaging.. i.e. deciding it doesn't need a change so marking as RESOLVED
15:50 cait1            it also helps make people's work visible, love it
15:49 ashimema         but it's a start.. hopefully it'll encourage a bit of gamification of manual editing
15:49 caroline         #info Martin added Documentation leaderboard to https://dashboard.koha-community.org/
15:49 ashimema         and doesn't know about the 'docs' section of bugzilla
15:49 cait1            ashimema++
15:49 ashimema         it needs a little more work though as currently it only picks from the status change
15:48 ashimema         in short.. I added a documentation team leaderboard the other day..
15:48 davidnind        I'll have a go at updating/finishing the Git guide - may need some help from the Git Gurus though
15:48 ashimema         I added 'dashboard' to the agenda very late.. you may have missed it..
15:48 cait1            caroline: I think we are to blame
15:48 caroline         alight https://dashboard.koha-community.org/ ? ashimema I think?
15:48 cait1            so maybe we shoudl move on officially .)
15:48 caroline         yeah, I'm a bit lost to... bad chair!
15:48 cait1            but we moved into making it easier to edit I guess?
15:48 cait1            Waht's been done so far
15:47 ashimema         what topic are we on.. I've lost strack
15:47 caroline         lol!
15:47 * cait1          might have had to many meetings today already, sorry if I am being a little silly today
15:47 ashimema         that's how we did ERM and Bundles submissions
15:46 ashimema         once I write it up, sure
15:46 cait1            caroline: be ready to action him ;)
15:46 cait1            coudl you share?
15:46 cait1            oh that's is interesting
15:46 ashimema         that is soooooooo much easier to work with
15:46 ashimema         I also now have a process that can take a google doc and turn it into rst without too much extra manual interaction in between
15:46 cait1            I am not the best "writer" myself, but know the technical bits
15:45 cait1            if someone write docs and just needs help shaping them up for a git submittion, I am happy to help too
15:45 caroline         ptfs-e++ ashimema++ for ambition!
15:45 davidnind        ptfs-e++
15:45 ashimema         aim being all submissions from ptfs-e come with docs submissions included
15:45 * ashimema       is actually going to get the new dev team here to start contributing too..
15:45 aude_c           thanks
15:45 davidnind        I have experimented with using "GitPod" - basically gives you VSCode in the browser (don't have to install anything locally), you still have to use git though... (and is not quite open source - you get 50 free hours of editing)
15:45 caroline         But yeah, if ashimema could set you up, after that it's a couple of simple commands
15:45 ashimema         yup
15:44 cait1            ashimema: I am sure ashimema would be happy to spend time with you ;)
15:44 ashimema         I find the gitlab editor changes too quickly and is rather difficult to use
15:44 caroline         aude_c, https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Editing_the_Koha_Manual#Editing_the_manual_-_using_a_local_repository_and_editor
15:44 aude_c           ok
15:44 ashimema         instead of trying to use the gitlab editor..
15:44 cait1            then you can use your favourite editor basically
15:44 ashimema         and then posting the change up
15:44 aude_c           does that mean Martin will have to spend some time with Lucy and I again to sort us out? :D
15:44 ashimema         editing a copy of the manual on your own PC aude_c
15:43 caroline         ok, ok... I have my setup made so that I don't need it
15:43 aude_c           erm... what do you mean by setting things up locally?
15:43 ashimema         it's something you can still do if you forked before they changed their policies caroline.. but I don't know how long that will last
15:43 ashimema         vscode has some nice options for rst too
15:42 caroline         I think ashimema and I managed to get our mirrors going no?
15:42 ashimema         indeed
15:42 davidnind        so basically, you would have to fork each time, if you didn't want to set things up locally
15:42 ashimema         tl:dr I think we should stop encouraging use of gitlab editors and start advocating local more using nicer clear tools instead
15:42 cait1            i just have no idea about Cypress etc right now
15:42 cait1            davidnind: about your earlier topic: i think there is tons of screenshots to do... if this is something you could teach me and it makes sense, I'd be happy to help
15:42 davidnind        there isn't an easy way to keep your fork up-to-date now, as mirroring is now a paid feature
15:41 cait1            with our big files it's often esier to edit locally - maybe that can be fixed as we go along with new toc etc
15:41 * ashimema       noticed there's considerations on using markdown later and was going to talk about making contributing easier then too
15:41 aude_c           haha, that re-assures me a lot! Thank you
15:41 caroline         tbh, I'm not comfortable with the gitlab interface either lol
15:40 aude_c           yes, we can easily be found ;-) Very happy to help, just need clear instructions as I'm not very comfortable using the gitlab web interface yet
15:40 caroline         #info this change, related to gitlab issue 18, resolved a lot of errors when building the manual
15:40 cait1            in the process we also found and fixed other errors like broken links, so overall a good thing
15:39 caroline         #info links to system preferences must now have the same format as links to everything else :ref:`SysPrefName <sysprefname-label>`
15:39 * ashimema       just added a topic to the agenda after this one
15:39 ashimema         do let me know if you want ptfs-e help on those things too... lucyvh and aude don't lurk so much, but I can always poke them 😜
15:39 caroline         #info links to system preferences have been changed in the manual
15:39 ashimema         nice
15:38 caroline         I haven't tried it recently, but it is now so much easier to see the "real" errors when building
15:38 cait1            and the manual now builts without errors!
15:38 caroline         It was great teamwork!
15:38 marie-luce       davidnind++, cait++ and caroline++
15:37 cait1            loved the interaction
15:37 caroline         (or in an evening, or morning)
15:37 caroline         davidnind++ and cait++ for doing it so quickly! We managed to change all links to system preferences in an afternoon between the trhee of us
15:37 cait1            btw always happy to help with such clean-up tasks - if you have something similar let me know :)
15:36 cait1            caroline++
15:36 davidnind        caroline++
15:36 caroline         I also updated the reference guide on the wiki on how to link https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/ReStructuredText_-_Tips_and_Tricks#Internal_links
15:36 cait1            because the headings and the auto-generated labels weren't unique then
15:36 cait1            ah right, so if you had a heading like "summary" that appeared in mulitple places, it created an error too
15:35 davidnind        that sounds right - you found a solution to getting rid of the duplicate label warning messages when buidling the manual
15:35 caroline         this is what I'm talking about https://gitlab.com/koha-community/koha-manual/-/issues/18
15:35 cait1            I think we used some type of setting that auto-generated 'labels' for headings, but we had issues with translations and error handling
15:34 caroline         I'm looking for the gitlab issue, just a sec
15:34 cait1            or shoudl not
15:34 cait1            but you can no longer do ref::"prefname"
15:34 ashimema         phew
15:34 cait1            ashimema: this is a different thing, not what you did with the direct link to pages
15:33 cait1            it did resolve the errors, but I thinkt here was also a configuration change associated?
15:33 ashimema         I thought I'd made the situation better rather than worse?
15:33 ashimema         ho.. did I break something with the sysprefs stuff
15:33 cait1            sorry, was just editing the agenda
15:32 caroline         cait1, davidnind is this correct, do you remember?
15:32 aude_c           #info Aude Charillon, PTFS Europe
15:32 caroline         iirc, the reason is that having headers as link targets made a bunch of errors when building the manual
15:31 caroline         We now have to link to the label, we can't link to the system preference itself
15:30 caroline         A couple of months (?) ago we changed the system preference links
15:30 caroline         #topic What's been done so far
15:30 lucyvh           #info lucy vaux-harvey PTFS Europe
15:30 caroline         #link https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Documentation_IRC_meeting_2022-12-09
15:29 caroline         crap sorry
15:29 cait1            do we have a link to agenda?
15:29 caroline         moving on?
15:29 caroline         Ok I added a couple of thing to the agenda...
15:28 cait1            it's all good, you can #info yourself still if you want
15:28 davidnind        hi lucyvh!
15:28 lucyvh           Hi docs people - sorry I'm late
15:28 caroline         I also wanted to talk about branching
15:28 cait1            let me know when it's a good moment? :)
15:27 ashimema         thus you could merge that re-organisation nice an early to get feedback without affecting the stable manual
15:27 caroline         )?
15:27 caroline         cait1, maybe in the Content development guidelines (..items for discussion, including any work flow issues..
15:27 davidnind        no, I didn't put in a #
15:27 * ashimema       thinks you could branch early this cycle and then publish your work in progress manual early too..
15:27 caroline         not sure if you needed that...
15:27 cait1            I have a translation issue i'd like to discuss... if that could go on agenda somewhere?
15:26 huginn           Current chairs: caroline davidnind

15:26 davidnind        oops!
15:26 caroline         #action David to finish work on reorganizing the manual and adding a landing page - send out to the mailing list for feedback (expect it to be iterative)
15:26 davidnind        action David to finish work on reorganizing the manual and adding a landing page - send out to the mailing list for feedback (expect it to be iterative)
15:26 caroline         I think automated screenshots will be a big plus too, especially with the interface change
15:25 caroline         Ok well, keep us updated and let us know if/how we can help
15:24 caroline         alright!
15:24 cait1            :)
15:24 cait1            if this affects mostly the contents page, that might not be a problem?
15:24 davidnind        No - as I'm just basically changing the index page at the moment and adding some new pages that don't exist
15:23 caroline         yep davidnind++ definitely!
15:23 ashimema         davidnind++
15:23 caroline         Would it impact other modifications that we do? Like if I push my big move from tools to cataloging, will it impact how I should do it?
15:23 davidnind        Some work to do on the areas where we don't have any content - like the What's new and Getting started
15:22 cait1            :)
15:22 cait1            davidnind++
15:22 aude_c           sure
15:22 cait1            sounds good
15:22 davidnind        I'll finish what I'm doing and then send around a message to the mailing list for feedback, if that would work?
15:21 davidnind        Not too much more to do - just adding some text for the landing pages, and putting the contents under the right areas
15:19 cait1            +1
15:19 caroline         Think we could get it ready for 23.05?
15:19 caroline         what would be the next steps to get this into the real manual?
15:18 davidnind        Also just noticed all my spelling errors!
15:17 ashimema         I really like that
15:17 davidnind        https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/attachment.cgi?id=144530
15:17 ashimema         looks lovely
15:17 davidnind        Yes - I haven't changed the underlying pages
15:16 caroline         I think the modules will stay the same from what I understand?
15:16 cait1            i haven't looked, just keep in mind that we need to link from Koha :)
15:16 caroline         No!! I love it
15:15 davidnind        is it a bit too radical?
15:15 caroline         wow that is very nice davidnind!
15:15 marie-luce       Do you have suggestions on where I could help?
15:15 davidnind        hi aude_c!

15:14 davidnind        Have also started some work on reorganising the contents - see bug 32391 - just added a screenshot, will shared a copy of the site for feedback
15:14 caroline         no, ok lol! I thought wahanui would answer me
15:14 aude_c           Hello, sorry for being late
15:14 caroline         David?
15:14 caroline         oops, you will be forever working on reorganizing the manual it seems
15:13 wahanui          okay, caroline.
15:13 caroline         #info David is also working on a manual reorganization
15:13 davidnind        Happy to demonstrate at the next meeting - once I've added a few more, and written some example tests for common types of screenshots
15:13 caroline         #info David is working on automated screenshots
15:13 davidnind        Automated screenshots: have something working, now just a case of adding "tests" to generate screenshots
15:12 davidnind        I've (finally!) been working on a couple of projects - have added updates to the agenda
15:12 caroline         I have been a bit busy with upgrades and migrations lately so I haven't been able to work on it, much, but I'm getting there
15:11 cait1            be right with you - finishing a phone call
15:11 ashimema         hugs caroline... apologies for doing that one and making docs a bit of a pain 😜
15:11 caroline         #info Caroline is moving cataloging tools from the tools chapter to the cataloging chapter

15:08 caroline         I'll go on but they can join any time
15:08 caroline         me too :(
15:07 cait1            Aude was here earlier askign about the meeting, but I missed her
15:07 caroline         Yeah I saw Aude's message earlier, that's why I pigned you
15:07 ashimema         probably just lost trck of time
15:07 ashimema         they were certainly intended to attend
15:07 caroline         thanks!
15:07 ashimema         I've just pinged them both
15:07 ashimema         as is Lucy

15:04 caroline         #startmeeting Documentation IRC meeting 2022-12-09
15:04 cait1            yes :)
15:03 caroline         Hi all! ready?
15:02 marie-luce       Hi everyone
15:01 caroline         I am helping an intern, be there in a couple of minutes
14:59 * cait1          is here
14:50 caroline_catlady I think in the commit is ok. It's easy to see there and bugzilla can get confusing when there are many comments
14:39 magnuse__        if a test plan gets really long, is it okay to just write "see bugzilla for test plan", or should it go in the commit no matter the length?
14:29 huginn           cait1: The operation succeeded.
14:29 cait1            @later tell aude_c sorry, missed your question (was in another meeting) - hope you come back for docs meeting - 30 minutes now!
14:23 magnuse__        anyone else agree that the new "Edit" button on reports should be a split button, where the main action is to edit, and then duplicate and delete can be in the little dropdown on the side?
13:37 davidnind        in about another hour and 1/2 - https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=Koha+Documentation+IRC+Meeting&iso=20221209T1500
13:36 davidnind        hi aude_c
13:05 aude_c           Am I here at the wrong time for the Doc meeting? :-D
13:04 aude_c           How are you cait1? :)
13:01 cait1            helllo aude_c :)
13:01 aude_c           Hello!
10:19 marcelr          looking forward to your patches :)
10:17 ashimema         But it would alleviate some of the SetEnvIf stuff we currently do to achieve this
10:17 ashimema         One would still need to do some work with vhosts I reckon
10:17 ashimema         Yeah, subdomains or even entruely different domains marcelr
10:16 ashimema         That's a nice boost
08:56 davidnind        cait1: I'm looking forward to a faster processor and more memory (only have 8GB, going to 32GB), not looking forward to reinstalling everything and tidying all my files...
08:54 cait1            davidnind: new computers are fun - hope you will have a smooth switch to the new one :)
08:43 davidnind        sorry it took so long, my computer is "playing up" - looking forward to a new one which should arrive next week...
08:40 marcelr          thx for spending the additional time
08:40 marcelr          great
08:39 davidnind        marcelr: figured it out I think, have added notes to the bug
08:22 davidnind        wrong window...
08:22 davidnind        :q
08:20 marcelr          davidnind: the test shows the error now at least; I had the warning in my logs in 21.11; have no scenario to reproduce right away
08:06 thibaud_g        hello everybody :)
07:58 davidnind        For 32417 how do I generate the error? If I cancel the order and delete catalog record I don't see anything in the error logs. (tests now pass, so OK there)
07:58 marcelr          subdomains?
07:57 marcelr          how do you differentiate technically?
07:57 marcelr          interesting idea ashimema
07:47 ashimema         I.e. allowing per branch opacs out of the box
07:47 ashimema         How would people feel about moving/adding OPACBaseURL up into the branches table?
07:40 marcelr          thx ashimema
07:36 ashimema         and a nice clear advice
07:35 ashimema         having the exceptions caught
07:35 ashimema         this is much more friendly
07:35 marcelr          by catching exceptions etc
07:35 ashimema         indeed
07:35 marcelr          yeah we already benefit from interrupting the installer a bit more user friendly
07:35 ashimema         but that's not a problem with your patch.. that's a feature enhancement request 😛
07:34 ashimema         I sort of wish there was an easy way for users, from the UI, to say 'do the recommended action' rather than just warning, dieing and expecting a server admin to step in.
07:33 ashimema         I think the patch makes good sense once one wraps their head around it..
07:32 marcelr          so plan B is remove constraints, add them back later
07:31 marcelr          at first i unset FK checks but QA wasnt happy
07:31 marcelr          weird things happen
07:30 ashimema         db versions are fun aren't they
07:30 huginn           04Bug https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=32399 major, P5 - low, ---, m.de.rooy, Needs Signoff , Database update for bug 30483 is failing
07:30 ashimema         that patch feels so strange for bug 32399..
07:29 marcelr          hi reiveune
07:29 reiveune         hello
07:29 marcelr          diffs on comments
07:28 marcelr          it helps you find the real problems by clearing the column diffs
07:28 ashimema         nice
07:28 marcelr          it syncs all column comments in the database with kohastructure
07:27 marcelr          Koha::Database::Commenter->new->reset_to_schema;
07:27 marcelr          i should set it to medium patch
07:26 marcelr          quite a bunch of code but not affecting general operation
07:26 huginn           04Bug https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=32334 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, m.de.rooy, Needs Signoff , Sync comments in database with schema
07:26 marcelr          i still have a larger one too :) bug 32334
07:26 marcelr          ashimema++ davidnind++
07:26 davidnind        ashimema++
07:25 ashimema         y
07:25 ashimema         makes sense
07:24 ashimema         I agree
07:24 marcelr          so i just used the warn
07:24 ashimema         yeah.
07:24 marcelr          its hard to get a good title there
07:23 ashimema         it seems it's mostly around the cancel action rather than the store itself
07:23 marcelr          32417 is a nice example of two bugs hiding each other
07:23 ashimema         should the bug title be 'cannot cancel order' or similar...
07:23 ashimema         just about to look at 3239
07:23 marcelr          but this approach seems to tackle it
07:23 ashimema         I did 32417
07:22 marcelr          ashimema: talking about 32417 or 32399
07:22 ashimema         that is strange
07:22 ashimema         feel free to add a second signoff though, it never hurts davidnind
07:22 marcelr          ashimema: it is quite weird that this problem occurs with Maria 10.1 and not 10.4 or 5
07:22 ashimema         sorry.. I just did it 😜
07:22 ashimema         oh
07:21 marcelr          great davidnind
07:19 davidnind        just waiting for KTD to update ⏲️
07:19 ashimema         but that's not going away any time soon.. so I get it.
07:19 ashimema         maintaining constraints in perl never feels especially right..
07:19 ashimema         this is again all to do with bad deleted_* tables isn't it ☹️
07:18 davidnind        I think I can handle the first one, if that helps...
07:16 marcelr          great !
07:16 ashimema         on it marcelr
