if this prefence is switched on: the document returned in another library than homebranch, the system automaticly transfer the document to his homebranch (with notification for librarian in returns.tmpl) .
switch off : the document stay in the holdingbranch ...
correcting bugs :
- comment C4::acquisition (not using in request.pl).
- correcting date in request.pl
-add the new call of function getbranches in request.pl
moremember.tmpl:change wrong url
Members.pm: change wrong field name in sql request(sub newmember)

Added a bit to display the correct item type for a person who has 2 or more
reserve this type only reserves on the same day, ie - reserved a dvd and a book with same biblio.
whether you system is capable of utilizing Record.pm (if there are
problems, it's likely with the back-end SAX Parser you've got installed).
I'll be expanding this in the future to provide better error handling
and instructions for fixing the parsers, etc.
This module represents a major leap forward in Koha's support of standard
record formats (ISO-2709 (MARC), MARCXML, Dublin Core, MODS, etc). It
provides a standard API for record management as well as an error-handling
mechanism so that the API will return proper error strings to the calling
program. It's only partially implemented currently, but the API returns
proper error strings if a feature isn't implemented.
There is also a testing suite that you can use to check your system's
capabilities to handle record and encoding conversions. Commit coming
soon.
I'm gonna work in UNICODE support next ...
records. It can be used to convert from one record format to another,
build formats from html (such as in addbiblio and additem), convert from
one encoding to another, etc.
It's the first module that provides access to the new Koha 3.0 API that
I've been working on (stay tuned for a mail to koha-devel explaining it).
Authority tables are modified to be compatible with new MARC frameworks. This change is part of Authority Linking & Zebra authorities. Requires change in Mysql database. It will break head unless all changes regarding this is implemented. This warning will take place on all commits regarding this
branchreserves : to see reserves for one library (with the branchip selection or librarian preferences)
currenttransfers : show all the transfers are waiting in the library
waitingreservetransfers: show all the book the librarian have to transfer to an another library .
"actions" are bugged, will be corrected .
adding two fields in branches table (branchip,branchprinter)
branchip : if the library enter an ip or ip range any librarian that connect from computer in this ip range will be temporarly affected to the corresponding branch .
branchprinter : the library can select a default printer for a branch
the intranet. The development was made on branch 2.2 by Arnaud Laurin from
Ouest Provence and integrated on HEAD by Pierrick Le Gall from INEO media

New page reserve/request.pl taking a biblionumber as entry point.
New functions:
- C4::Biblio::get_iteminfos_of retrieves item informations for a list of
itemnumbers
- C4::Biblio::get_biblioiteminfos_of retrieves biblioitem informations for a
list of biblioitemnumbers
- C4::Biblio::get_itemnumbers_of retrieve the list of itemnumbers related to
each biblionumber given in argument.
- C4::Circulation::Circ2::get_return_date_of retrieves return date for a
list of itemnumbers.
- C4::Koha::get_itemtypeinfos_of retrieves the informations related to a
list of itemtypes.
- C4::Koha::get_branchinfos_of retrieves the informations related to a list
of branchcodes.
- C4::Koha::get_notforloan_label_of retrives the list of status/label for
the authorised_values related to notforloan.
- C4::Koha::get_infos_of is the generic function used by all get_*infos_of.
- C4::Reserves2::GetNumberReservesFromBorrower
- C4::Reserves2::GetFirstReserveDateFromItem
Modified functions:
- C4::Reserves2::FindReserves was simplified to be more readable.
The reservation page is reserve/request.pl and is linked from nowhere as
long as zebra is not stable yet on HEAD.
koha.xml contains both the koha configuration and zebraserver configuration.
Zebra connection is modified to allow connection to authority zebra as well.
It will break head if koha.conf is not replaced with koha.xml
- modified userenv to add branchname
- modifier menus.inc to have the librarian name & userenv displayed on every page. they are in a librarian_information div.
* introducing a category_type into categories. It can be A (adult), C (children), P (Professionnal), I (institution/organisation).
* each category_type has it's own forms to create members.
* the borrowers table has been heavily modified (many fields changed), to get something more logic & readable
* reintroducing guarantor/guanrantee system that is now independant from hardcoded C/A for categories
* updating templates to fit template rules
(see mail feb, 17 on koha-devel "new features for borrowers" for more details)
the system preference prefered date format.
improvement: book fund list and budget list screen redesigned. Filters on
each field. Columns are not sortable yet. Using DHTML Calendar to fill date
fields instead of manual filling. Pagination system. From the book fund
list, you can reach the budget list, filtered on a book fund, or not. A
budget can be added only from book fund list screen.
bug fixed: branchcode was missing in table aqbudget.
bug fixed: when setting a branchcode to a book fund, all associated budgets
move to this branchcode.
modification: when adding/modifying budget/fund, MySQL specific "REPLACE..."
statements replaced by standard SQL compliant statement.
bug fixed: when adding/modifying a budget, if the book fund is associated to
a branch, the branch selection is disabled and set to the book fund branch.

improvement: support of itemtype icons on prog template. The icons are
displayed on itemtypes management screen and on moremember screen.
improvement: use of pagination_bar on itemtypes management screen.
new: function were added in C4::Koha to manage itemtype image location
(local/remote). Warning: you must copy or symlink the itemtypeimg directory
from the opac template into the intranet template.
display in the pagination bar was wrong on extreme case (when number of
items equals the pagesize). Calculation replaced by a generic function
getnbpages in C4::Koha. This function could be useful elsewhere than in
stpwords management screen and avoid calculation bugs as I did.

improved: C4::Output::pagination_bar builds an HTML pagination bar with no
language dependency. This function hugely simplifies templates and offers a
standard pagination method. This function also improves preformances.

Replacing zebraserver and zebraport by zebradb in koha.conf . The zebra connexion can be done in a single variable "server:port/database". I used this in dirty searchMarc.pm as well as in Biblio.pm. I've replaced your code in Search.pm
It just does a simple cql search at the moment, takes a hashref of keyed by variable.
I have introduced 2 new variables to koha.conf
zebraserver and zebraport Ill add to the installer to get these set.
Very very very much a work in progress still. Thanks to paul for getting things up to this point.
Seems not to break too many things, but i'm probably wrong here.
at least, new features/bugfixes from 2.2.5 are here (tested on some features on my head local copy)
- removing useless directories (koha-html and koha-plucene)
some explanations :
- updater/updatedatabase => will transform all tables in innoDB (not related to utf8, just to warn you) AND collate them in utf8 / utf8_general_ci. The SQL command is : ALTER TABLE tablename DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_general_ci.
- *-top.inc will show the pages in utf8
- THE HARD THING : for me, mysql-client and mysql-server were set up to communicate in iso8859-1, whatever the mysql collation ! Thus, pages were improperly shown, as datas were transmitted in iso8859-1 format ! After a full day of investigation, someone on usenet pointed "set NAMES 'utf8'" to explain that I wanted utf8. I could put this in my.cnf, but if I do that, ALL databases will "speak" in utf8, that's not what we want. Thus, I added a line in Context.pm : everytime a DB handle is opened, the communication is set to utf8.
- using marcxml field and no more the iso2709 raw marc biblioitems.marc field.
- the last 5 issues are now shown, and their status can be changed (but not reverted to "waited", as there can be only one "waited")
- the library can create a "distribution list". this paper contains a list of borrowers (selected from the borrower list, or manually entered), and print it for a given issue. once printed, the sheet can be put on the issue and distributed to every reader on the list (one by one).
* synch with rel_2_2. Probably the last non manual synch, as rel_2_2 should not be modified deeply.
* code cleaning (cleaning warnings from perl -w) continued
actually existed; so if there was no isbn, and the issn was blank,
the item would be assigned a random biblionumber and the breeding farm
would report that the item already exists in the catalog (even though
it didn't). This fix adds a check to determine whether the imported
record has an issn before assigning a matching biblionumber.
But C4::Date uses Date::Manip, which in the authors own words
"If you look in CPAN, you'll find that there are a number of Date and Time packages. Is Date::Manip the one you should be using? In my
opinion, the answer is no most of the time."
He goes on to say, that because Date::Manip is powerful and is written fully in perl its also slow.
Now Circulation needs to be as fast as possible. And C4::Date isnt actually doing anything particularly tricky,
So im working on C4::Circulation::Date to be a replacement, in an attempt to win some speed
This module is for dealing with user submitted reviews of items
Currently it allows (with some scripts) a user to review any item on their reading record.
The review is marked unvetted, and a librarian must vette and approve the review before it can show to the public
The scripts to add/edit a review, and to display them for the opac are done.
The script to display a list of reviews waiting vetting for the librarians has also been done.
IMPORTANT NOTE : the MARCkoha2marc sub API has been modified. Instead of biblionumber & biblioitemnumber, it now gets a hash.
The sub is used only in Biblio.pm, so the API change should be harmless (except for me, but i'm aware ;-) )
* run updater/updatedatabase to create imageurl field in itemtypes.
* go to Koha >> parameters >> itemtypes >> modify (or add) an itemtype. You will see around 20 nice images to choose between (thanks to owen). If you prefer your own image, you also can type a complete url (http://www.myserver.lib/path/to/my/image.gif)
* go to OPAC, and search something. In the result list, you now have the picture instead of the text itemtype.
replacing 2.2 marc search by a Net::z3950 search (waiting for Perl/Zoom)
works only for title/author/isbn search, any other search is considered as 'keywork search' (=anywhere
* go to koha cvs home directory
* in misc/zebra there is a unimarc directory. I suggest that marc21 libraries create a marc21 directory
* put your zebra.cfg files here & create your database.
* from koha cvs home directory, ln -s misc/zebra/marc21 zebra (I mean create a symbolic link to YOUR zebra directory)
* now, everytime you add/modify a biblio/item your zebra DB is updated correctly.
NOTE :
* this uses a system call in perl. CPU consumming, but we are waiting for indexdata Perl/zoom
* deletion still not work
* UNIMARC zebra config files are provided in misc/zebra/unimarc directory. The most important line being :
in zebra.cfg :
recordId: (bib1,Local-number)
storeKeys:1
in .abs file :
elm 090 Local-number -
elm 090/? Local-number -
elm 090/?/9 Local-number !:w
(090$9 being the field mapped to biblio.biblionumber in Koha)
* removing useless subs
* removing some subs that are also elsewhere
* renaming all OLDxxx subs to REALxxx subs (should not change anything, as OLDxxx, as well as REAL, are supposed to be for Biblio.pm internal use only)
It provides the user with the list of items that have been ordered for a delay and are NOT yet received.
The user may filter by supplier or branch or delay.
This page is still under developpement.
Goal is to make it ready to print to reorder the books.
2 new functions have been written in Acquisition module :
getsupplierlistwithlateorders
getlateorders
branches has been modified to manage branch independancy.
Request for comment.
STILL UNDER developpment
don't update your cvs if you want to have a working head...
this commit contains :
* updater/updatedatabase : get rid with marc_* tables, but DON'T remove them. As a lot of things uses them, it would not be a good idea for instance to drop them. If you really want to play, you can rename them to test head without them but being still able to reintroduce them...
* Biblio.pm : modify MARCgetbiblio to find the raw marc record in biblioitems.marc field, not from marc_subfield_table, modify MARCfindframeworkcode to find frameworkcode in biblio.frameworkcode, modify some other subs to use biblio.biblionumber & get rid of bibid.
* other files : get rid of bibid and use biblionumber instead.
What is broken :
* does not do anything on zebra yet.
* if you rename marc_subfield_table, you can't search anymore.
* you can view a biblio & bibliodetails, go to MARC editor, but NOT save any modif.
* don't try to add a biblio, it would add data poorly... (don't try to delete either, it may work, but that would be a surprise ;-) )
IMPORTANT NOTE : you need MARC::XML package (http://search.cpan.org/~esummers/MARC-XML-0.7/lib/MARC/File/XML.pm), that requires a recent version of MARC::Record
Updatedatabase stores the iso2709 data in biblioitems.marc field & an xml version in biblioitems.marcxml Not sure we will keep it when releasing the stable version, but I think it's a good idea to have something readable in sql, at least for development stage.
- a mail is sent everytime an issue if recieved in serial module. The mail is sent to all borrowers that have put an alert on the subscription (remember that you can put an alert only if the librarian have defined a "letter" as mail to send)
- the librarian can see, for a given subscription, who has put an alert.
* adding a package Letters.pm, that manages Letters & alerts.
* adding feature : it's now possible to define a "letter" for any subscription created. If a letter is defined, users in OPAC can put an alert on the subscription. When an issue is marked "arrived", all users in the alert will recieve a mail (as defined in the "letter"). This last part (= send the mail) is not yet developped. (Should be done this week)
* adding feature : it's now possible to "put to an alert" in OPAC, for any serial subscription. The alert is stored in a new table, called alert. An alert can be put only if the librarian has activated them in subscription (and they activate it just by choosing a "letter" to sent to borrowers on new issues)
* adding feature : librarian can see in borrower detail which alerts they have put, and a user can see in opac-detail which alert they have put too.
Note that the system should be generic enough to manage any type of alert.
I plan to extend it soon to virtual shelves : a borrower will be able to put an alert on a virtual shelf, to be warned when something is changed in the virtual shelf (mail being sent once a day by cron, or manually by the shelf owner. Anyway, a mail won't be sent on every change, users would be spammed by Koha ;-) )
- Trying to get a basket not owned by so of his own branch leads to mainpage.
- Lists onlys ths baskets owned by someon of user's brach.
Auth.pm now sends a cookie with userenv informations.
Addign a Cookie containing user specific vars such as :
branch,
firstname,
surname,
cardnumber...
may be criticized from a lawyer point of view, since name and surname are given.
But the real need is for userid and branch.
And it is achieved.
Auth passes now TWO cookies :
a session cookie
And an environment cookie.
Needs Two Update in database...
On more table (action_logs)
And One more syspref Activate_Log, with On|Off values.
Maintainance has been sweeped of previous Log functions
addbiblio.pl contains a sample of code using Log.pm
To be generalized to Authorities, acquisitions, members soon.
SearchBiblio.pm forked from SearchMarc.pm
opac-search-biblio.pl forked from opac-search.pl (just change module)
an attempt at a new search using FULLTEXT indexes.
NB: Boolean won't work without MySQL >v4.0
NNB: Will be slow without indexes added on Biblio table as follows:
ALTER TABLE biblio ADD FULLTEXT (author,title,unititle,seriestitle);
Only searching on "Any word" field just now.
more to come.
how it works :
* create the table marc_Tword with the following structure :
CREATE TABLE `marc_Tword` (
`word` varchar(80) NOT NULL default '',
`usedin` text NOT NULL,
`tagsubfield` varchar(4) NOT NULL default '',
PRIMARY KEY (`word`,`tagsubfield`)
) TYPE=MyISAM;
* open a console & type export PERL5LIB & export KOHA_CONF as usual.
* fill this table with misc/build_marc_Tword.pl. Warning, this script uses a very very consumming but very fast method to fill the table : it does everything in memory, then write everything. Another method is provided (& commented), but it's 100x times slower (really !)
* open opac-search.pl and replace use C4::SearchMarc; by use C4::SearchMarcTest; as the API hasn't changed, it will work immediatly.
* go to opac-search (advanced search) & search whatever you want. Should work fine.
LIMITS :
* build_marc_Tword has problem with extended chars (accented ones mainly). So don't be afraid if you get sql errors. They are not a problem for a POC
* search works always order by title, whatever you choose.
* search works only search WORDA and WOARDB, not yet WORDA or WORDB or WORDA except WORDB.
A sub had been forgotten to use the C4::Context->marcfromkohafield array, that caches DB datas.
this is only a little improvement for normal DB modif, but almost x2 the speed of bulkmarcimport... from 6records/seconds to more than 10.
if this parameter is defined, the url is used instead of the default one.
So, you can have your own stylesheet somewhere, and use it instead of the official Koha one.
* partial support of the "linkage" MARC feature : if you enter a "link" on a MARC subfield, the magnifying glass won't search on the field, but on the linked field. I agree it's a partial support. Will be improved, but I need to investigate MARC21 & UNIMARC diffs on this topic.
http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=858
* added a button to cancel issue
* adding checkbox to cancel reserve on the book (checked by default)
* the cancelation reserve is done on reserves done for a given item or for any item
Nelsonville, pls test & confirm it's OK
In 2.4, a new DB structure will highly speed things and this limit will be removed.
FindDuplicate is activated again, the perf problems were due to this problem.
For instance, it's only done on ISBN only. Will be improved soon.
When a duplicate is detected, the biblio is not saved, but the user is asked for a confirmations.
* in subscription Add, the issue number & date is used to calculate the 1st issue (previously, a "next issue number & date" was applied, meaning you had to enter the number & date of a previous issue)
* the "inner loop" used for serials number ({XYZ}) is now shown & can be modified. The innerloop is used for numbering formulas saying "change the number once every 4 times".
This field is useful when the callnumber contains no information on the room where the item is stored.
With this field, we now have 3 levels of informations to find a book :
* the branch.
* the location.
* the callnumber.
This should be versatile enough to solve any storing method.
This hack is quite simple, due to the nice Biblio.pm API. The MARC => koha db link is automatically managed. Just add the link in the parameters section.
moving the getalltemplates and getalllanguages subs out from Search.pm (that will be deprecated soon) to Koha.pm
moving changelanguage.pl to OPAC scope
* acquisition rewritte : create a aqbasket table to deal with "bookseller order header".
* add "close basket" feature : a closed basket can't be modified
* suggestion feature : manage suggestions in acquisition (after suggestion filled in OPAC)
This 1st commit reorders deeply the circulation module.
The goal is to :
* have something 100% templated/translatable.
* have something easy to read & modify, to say to customers/users : you can define your circulation rules as you want if you accept to look in C4/Circ/Circ2.pm
The circulation now works :
1=> ask for the borrower barcode (as previously)
2=> ask for the item barcode.
3=> check "canbookbeissued". This new sub returns 2 arrays :
- IMPOSSIBLE : if something is here, then the issue is not possible and is not done.
- TOBECONFIRMED : if something is here, then the issue can be donc if the user confirms it.
4=> if TOBECONFIRMED is set : ask for confirmation, loop. if neither are set or confirmation flag is set (2nd pass of the loop), then issue.
The IMPOSSIBLE & TOBECONFIRMED hashs contains :
* the reason of the line. always in capitals, with words separated by _ : BARCODE_UNKNOWN, DEBTS ... as key of the hash
* more information, as value of the hash ( TOBECONFIRMED{ALREADY_ISSUED} = "previous_borrower_name", for example)
This commit :
* compiles
* works on certain situations, not on other
* does NOT issue (the line is # )
* does not check issuing rules depending of # of books allowed / already issued
The next step is :
- check issuing rule.
- extend issuing rule to have a 3D array : for each branch / itemtype / borrowertype = issuing number and issuing length.

* adding "suggestion", that popup a windows. The popup windows shows, for each word entered in the search form, the 10 words that sounds like the word entered, and that are used most often.
* fixes some minor bugs
Still to do :
* good support of ' and ,
* search on non marc fields : the marc field is found by a sub in Biblio.pm
* ordering a search
This commit shows the sql in log. Pls test it's correctly indexed (using : explain <sql_in_log>)
NEW plugin : the plugin that manages 60X field in UNIMARC (i think it's the same in marc21). Used to search a thesaurus entry & parse bibliothesaurus table for category NC (Common Name in french).
The user can enter a search term, and see entries corresponding. If the search is a real entry in the thesaurus, and this entry has dependencies, they are shown too.
For example, if the thesaurus contains :
Geo -- Europe -- France -- Marseille
Geo -- Europe -- France -- Paris
Hist -- Europe -- France -- Revolution
A search on "France"
shows
Geo --Europe --France and Hist -- Europe -- France on the left panel
When the user clic on Geo -- Europe -- France,
Marseille & Paris are shown on the right panel.
When the user selects a value, it's reported to the MARC editor.
NOTE : template ONLY IN FRENCH (but it's 11PM for instance, & i plan to go to bed :-) )
1st draft for MARC biblio deletion.
Still does not work well, but at least, Biblio.pm compiles & it should'nt break too many things
(Note the trash in the MARCdetail, but don't use it, please :-) )
A few minor bugfixes too in perl code.
NOTE TO ENGLISH "TEMPLATORS" : you should look at this commits, as some ideas are really nice. Thanks to Carole, Wesford School, new Koha user in France :-)
I changed this behaviour :
if notforloan is set for a given item, and NOT for all items from this itemtype, the notforloan is kept.
If notforloan is set for itemtype, it's used (and impossible to loan a specific item from this itemtype)
results are returned. For instance, if a search for 'dogs' returns 25 results
that have the subject 'dogs,' there will be 25 duplicate listings in the results.
The BornameSearch function now uses the $type parameter
Single and advanced search methods implemented.
Advanced is the old version.
Single only looks for $member% in surnames.
This supports is only for MARC <-> OLD-DB link. It worked previously, but values entered as MARC were not reported to OLD-DB, neither values entered as OLD-DB were reported to MARC.
Note that some OLD-DB subs are strange (dummy ?) see OLDmodsubject, OLDmodsubtitle, OLDmodaddiauthor in C4/Biblio.pm
For example it seems impossible to have more that 1 addi author and 1 subtitle. In MARC it's not the case. So, if you enter more than one, I'm afraid only the LAST will be stored.
The $loggedinuser in Koha is the CODE of the logged user (result of get_user_and_template subroutine).
BTW, in get_user_and_template subroutine, the TMPL_VAR loggedinuser is replaced by the NAME of the user.
This is troubleshooting.
so, I replace the name by the "loggedinusername" template variable.
If you want to add the username somewhere, just add <TMPL_VAR name="loggedinusername"> in the template.
Fixes bug #401
z3950 search and import seems to works fine.
Let me explain how :
* a "search z3950" button is added in the addbiblio template.
* when clicked, a popup appears and z3950/search.pl is called
* z3950/search.pl calls addz3950search in the DB
* the z3950 daemon retrieve the records and stores them in z3950results AND in marc_breeding table.
* as long as there as searches pending, the popup auto refresh every 2 seconds, and says how many searches are pending.
* when the user clicks on a z3950 result => the parent popup is called with the requested biblio, and auto-filled
Note :
* character encoding support : (It's a nightmare...) In the z3950servers table, a "encoding" column has been added. You can put "UNIMARC" or "USMARC" in this column. Depending on this, the char_decode in C4::Biblio.pm replaces marc-char-encode by an iso 8859-1 encoding. Note that in the breeding import this value has been added too, for a better support.
* the marc_breeding and z3950* tables have been modified : they have an encoding column and the random z3950 number is stored too for convenience => it's the key I use to list only requested biblios in the popup.
* adding a syntax column in z3950 table = this column will say wether the z3950 must be called with PerferedRecordsyntax => USMARC or PerferedRecordsyntax => UNIMARC. I tried some french UNIMARC z3950 servers, and some only send USMARC, some only UNIMARC, some can answer with both.
Note this is a 1st draft. More to follow (today ? I hope).
It was due to an illegal contruction in Koha : we tried to retrive subfields from <10 tags.
That's not possible. MARC::Record accepted this in 0.93 version, but it was fixed after.
Now, the construct/retrieving is OK !
* worked in 1.9.0, but not in 1.9.1 :
- modif of a biblio didn't work
- empty fields where not shown when modifying a biblio. empty fields managed by the library (ie in tab 0->9 in MARC parameter table) MUST be entered, even if not presented.
* did not work before :
- repeatable subfields now works correctly. Enter 2 subfields separated by | and they will be splitted during saving.
- dropped the last subfield of the MARC form :-(
Internal changes :
- MARCmodbiblio now works by deleting and recreating the biblio. It's not perf optimized, but MARC is a "do_something_impossible_to_trace" standard, so, it's the best solution. not a problem for me, as biblio are rarely modified.
Note the MARCdelbiblio has been rewritted to enable deletion of a biblio WITHOUT deleting items.
Those fields doesn't have subfields.
In koha, we will use a specific "trick" : fields <10 will have a "virtual" subfield : "@".
Note it's only virtual : when rebuilding the MARC::Record, the koha API handle correctly "@" subfields => the resulting MARC record has a 00x field without subfield.

C4::Members created to hold this logic
Fixed syntax error in newimember.pl
Make newimember.pl use the cardnumber generation logic (bug 206)
Updated newimember.pl to use get_template_and_user
Other minor mods to newimember.pl; new tab size noted
If checkauth() detects a permission problem (e.g., in untemplated scripts),
this is necessary for the code (that displays the error message) to run
(otherwise Perl dies with a very cryptic, confusing error message)
1. Circ2::returnbook will throw an exception if $branch is undef
2. branch/printer-getting code is modularized into getbranch and getprinter
with correct logic from circulation.pl (temporarily put into Circ2.pm)
3. circulation.pl and returns.pl modified to use above functions
Noted correct tab sizes for the files; returns.pl partially reformatted to
conform to the dominant correct tab size
Handle non-latin1 charsets for returns.pl
'mandatory' property to a per-subfield 'tag_mandatory' template parameter,
so that addbiblio.tmpl can distinguish between mandatory subfields in a
mandatory tag and mandatory subfields in an optional tag
Not-minor factoring in acqui.simple/addbiblio.pl to make the if-else blocks
smaller, and to add some POD; need further testing for this
Added function to check if a MARC subfield name is "koha-internal" (instead
of checking it for 'lib' and 'tag' everywhere); temporarily added to Koha.pm
Use above function in acqui.simple/additem.pl and search.marc/search.pl
Create output_html_with_http_headers function to contain the "print $query
->header(-type => guesstype...),..." call. This is in preparation for
non-HTML output (e.g., text/xml) and charset conversion before output in
the future.
Created C4/Interface/CGI/Template.pm to hold convenience functions specific
to the CGI interface using HTML::Template
Modified moremembers.pl to make the "sex" field localizable for languages
where M and F doesn't make sense
in ISO-8859-1.
A new C4::Charset module (tentative name) has been created to guess the
charset of a piece of HTML markup. The CGI programs will be modified to use
this module as they are encountered during translation.
useful in upgradedb2marc.pl script.
* if this script is called during installation, uses /etc/koha.conf.tmp
* if it's called manually (after installation), uses /etc/koha.conf, as the tmp file is no more here :-)
auto-replaces theme and lang template variable.
This is useful if you have images in your template :
<img src="/<TMPL_VAR name="theme">/<TMPL_VAR name="lang">/images/picture.gif>
or
<img src="/<TMPL_VAR name="theme">/images/picture.gif>
in the case of a non-language dependant image.
Before this fix, gettemplate only replaced a variable called themelang, which was useful for language dependant images, but didn't work with theme-only images.
Note the previous behaviour is still activated (ie : themelang still works)
the api in pod-auth.pm has "type => 'opac' "parameter.
If called from intranet, should be type => 'intranet'.
Output.pm checked for type existed, and not it's value. Now, Output compares checks for type value.
If type='intranet', then the intranet template is called, else it's an opac template.
Finlay, please validate this commit.
* many bugfixes
* adding value_builder : you can map a subfield in the marc_subfield_structure to a sub stored in "value_builder" directory. In this directory you can create screen used to build values with any method. In this commit is a 1st draft of the builder for 100$a unimarc french subfield, which is composed of 35 digits, with 12 differents values (only the 4th first are provided for instance)

the user has to install!
Redid the way SQL queries are built up, to make it more readable and
maintainable.
Removed a couple of unused variables.
Got rid of some un-Perl-like bogosity.
Every function in this module is now obsolete. Removed just about
everything.
The name "Database" might still be reused, though the next time
something gets added, it should probably be called v2.0.
* some bugfixes
* multiple item management : MARCadditem and MARCmoditem have been added. They suppose that ALL the MARC field linked to koha-item are in the same MARC tag (on the same line of MARC file)
Note : it should not be hard for marcimport and marcexport to re-link fields from internal tag/subfield to "legal" tag/subfield.
Database.pm and Output.pm are almost not modified (var test...)
Biblio.pm is almost completly rewritten.
WHAT DOES IT ??? ==> END of Hitchcock suspens
1st, it does... nothing...
Every old API should be there. So if MARC-stuff is not done, the behaviour is EXACTLY the same (if there is no added bug, of course). So, if you use normal acquisition, you won't find anything new neither on screen or old-DB tables ...
All old-API functions have been cloned. for example, the "newbiblio" sub, now has become :
* a "newbiblio" sub, with the same parameters. It just call a sub named OLDnewbiblio
* a "OLDnewbiblio" sub, which is a copy/paste of the previous newbiblio sub. Then, when you want to add the MARC-DB stuff, you can modify the newbiblio sub without modifying the OLDnewbiblio one. If we correct a bug in 1.2 in newbiblio, we can do the same in main branch by correcting OLDnewbiblio.
* The MARC stuff is usually done through a sub named MARCxxx where xxx is the same as OLDxxx. For example, newbiblio calls MARCnewbiblio. the MARCxxx subs use a MARC::Record as parameter.
The last thing to solve was to manage biblios through real MARC import : they must populate the old-db, but must populate the MARC-DB too, without loosing information (if we go from MARC::Record to old-data then back to MARC::Record, we loose A LOT OF ROWS). To do this, there are subs beginning by "ALLxxx" : they manage datas with MARC::Record datas. they call OLDxxx sub too (to populate old-DB), but MARCxxx subs too, with a complete MARC::Record ;-)
In Biblio.pm, there are some subs that permits to build a old-style record from a MARC::Record, and the opposite. There is also a sub finding a MARC-bibid from a old-biblionumber and the opposite too.
Note we have decided with steve that a old-biblio <=> a MARC-Biblio.
after being logged out for inactivity. Also switched from crypt passwords to
md5 passwords stored in borrowers table. Used Digest::MD5 module. I ain't
gonna reinvent _that_ wheel. :)
(password). There is also a new "userid" field in the borrowers table. When
a user logs in, the userid will be checked against the userid first and the
cardnumber second, so either method will work.
Also now supports scripts that do not _require_ authentication, but might
display differently if they get an authenticated userid (might be useful for
opac pages, where pages could be tailored to meet a patron's preferences).
Not related to MARC :
* removed HLT- empty link when no basket for a supplier (should be useful to copy this into rel-1-2 i think)
* fixed some "use of uninitialized value"
related to MARC
* changed use Acquisition to use Catalogue, new package for MARC management
For instance, nothing is done to MARC DB, but structure is modified (see Biblio.pm for details), and everything seems to work : it's still possible to use acqui, and it fills old-DB pretty good.
WARNING : if you work on main trunk, please note Acquisition.pm is NO MORE USED in /acqui/ system. Every sub in Acquisition.pm has been moved to Biblio.pm or Catalogue.pm.
0- Requires MARC::Record from cpan to work
1- divided Catalogue.pm in 2 parts :
Biblio.pm ,that contains biblio management
Catalogue.pm, that contains acquisition management.
When ended, they will replace the Acquisition.pm package
2- Created MARCxxx functions :
* MARCgetbiblio : retrieves a MARC::Record from the bibid passed in parameter (working, see test.pl script)
* MARCaddbiblio : creates a MARC-DB entry, for a MARC::Record given as parameter. (working)
* MARCmodsubfield : modifies a subfield for a given subfieldid
* MARCfingsubfield : retrieves a subfieldvalue from a bibid/tag/subfield
* MARCaddsubfield : adds a subfield to biblio into the DB
* MARCkoha2marc : builds a MARC::Record, given a biblionumber, a biblioitemnumber and/or an itemnumber. (working).
TODO :
A lot ;-))))
For instance, you can create only a MARC-DB entry from a old-DB entry. Note some questions are still to solve around bibid (old-DB/MARC-DB)...
Catalogue.pm : marc stuff :
* the 3 xxxSubfield functions works
* the addMarcBiblio function has been added : if you pass it a perlmarcstructure (sample in test.pl and explanation in marc/perlmarcstructure file), it adds a biblio to the marc_schema. The newbiblioitem (old koha-DB) still has to be updated to build the perlmarcstructure internally and call addMarcBiblio function.
All reserve activity should go through these.
CheckReserves (search on itemnumber),
CancelReserve (manages priorities correctly)
ReserveWaiting (sets a reserve record to waiting and sorts other priorities)
Fixing glitches in counting lost items.
In items
itemlost=1 item marked lost by a librarian
itemlost=2 item marked lost by kohas automatic this item is over 4 weeks
overdue routine.
To the borrowers (ie in the opac) they should just show as lost
branchtransfers table
Circ2.pm has been changed a little
admin/branches.pl alows branches to be added, edited and deleted.
updatedatabase needs more fixing
Its returned off the members/patrons card. And a note is placed on the item
saying that its been paid for.
The item stays marked as lost. But the patron does not accrue more fines
Added subroutine in Search.pm load systemprefs from new systempreferences
table in database. Initial use is to allow using my simplified acquisitions
module in place of vendor-based acquisitions module. Default is vendor-based
module.
Changed the look of circulation.pl to the green/yellow colours
Note: Steve, i added another variable $backgroundimage that sets the background image for the main tables, so it should be straightforward to change the look back to the colours you had if you want to
The permissions on this config file should also be strict, since they contain
the database password.
At a minimum, the apache user needs to be able to read it, as well as any other user that runs circ.
I would suggest ownership of www-data.libadmins with no access to others.
libadmins contain all users that use circ
