i wonder if TT is smart enough to optimize it when blocks of TT code are right next to each other [% foo %][% bar %] |

switch on compiled templates |
02:07 |

then you can read the resulting perl and see :) |

COMPILE_DIR and COMPILE_EXT and the 2 switches you want to pass to the new (you probably are already) |

we're implementing SMS in our opac at cwmars now |
10:07 |
krvmga |
one problem we're having is with the following line of code |
10:08 |
krvmga |
<a href="[% ctx.origin %]">[% l('Return to record') %]</a> |
10:09 |
krvmga |
somehow origin is picking up the sms message and just sending you to another display of it |
10:09 |
krvmga |
instead of the original record that you wanted to send yourself a text about |

up here in northern michigan the kids are on their fourth snowday in a row. they haven't been in class since Thursday. |

as of Saturday, our snowfall total for the season was 142". higher than last season, but i'm sure others in channel have had more. |
13:49 |

mostly the past few days it's been the windchill keeping the schools closed, but a bit of impassable roads also. |
13:49 |

jeff: It felt like we had more here, but that's only because there are apparently only 3 plows in all of Marion Co. :/ |

it's all relative, though. three inches of snow in atlanta is probably similar to several times that here. nice to hear that you have more equipment now than in 2011, though. :-) |

Reports wizards: Can we run something to say "Change everything with THIS location to THIS location"? |
15:51 |
hbrennan |
We have two music shelving locations, and we only need/want one |
15:52 |
hbrennan |
The goal being the report actually changes the location, not just produces a list |
15:54 |
dbwells |
I am not aware of reports being able to do updates to the database. |
15:54 |
hbrennan |
I didn't think so |
15:54 |

but using SQL could? |
15:54 |

hbrennan: certainly |
15:54 |

Is that why everyone loves it? |
15:54 |

If you have any access to the DB directly, it would be very easy. |
15:54 |
hbrennan |
ahhhh I need to learn SQL asap |
15:55 |
eeevil |
update asset.copy set location = X where location = Y and not deleted; -- maybe you don't need the "not deleted" clause |
15:55 |
mmorgan |
hbrennan: you could use a report to get the barcodes, put them in a text file, then upload them to item status and update the batch there. |
15:55 |

as long as there aren't too many |

Oh, awesome. dbwells++ and same to eeevil++ |
15:57 |

Not sure if they show up in the client, but you can see the IDs by selecting from the asset.copy_location table, e.g. select * from asset.copy_location; |
15:57 |
hbrennan |
I have limited database access |
15:58 |

still fighting for that |
15:58 |

I'm hoping when I pass the first half of CCNA our IT guy will have faith in me |
15:59 |

sql is very useful and powerful, but doing updates in the client is a lot safer |
15:59 |

I still feel nervous doing sql updates |

If renewal is mostly just a checkin and then checkout, why have all these extra checks just for renewing? |
18:46 |
Dyrcona |
We end up running those, then the checkin tests, and then essentially the same checks for the checkout. |
18:46 |
dcook |
I'm not an Evergreen person, but I imagine there are extra rules for renewing? |
18:47 |
dcook |
Like only being able to renew certain types of items, only renewing if there are no other holds, etc. |
18:48 |
Dyrcona |
dcook: I'm going through the circ code, and I am an "Evergreen person." |
18:48 |
Dyrcona |
There are slightly different checks for renewals, but virtually all of the tests get run again. |
18:49 |
dcook |
In that case, no idea, but sounds like a valid question :) |
18:49 |
Dyrcona |
I'm tempted to remove the database check for the status not being equal to 1 on a renewal. |
18:54 |
Dyrcona |
I also don't like how the same events come up three times in my log before we actually hit a bail statement. |
18:54 |
Dyrcona |
You'd think if we're bothering to generate the events, we'd check them and die right away. |
18:57 |

All of this means that the copy's status is being checked and rechecked and checked again with different event generated in different places: COPY_NOT_AVAILABLE and COPY_STATUS_LOST in this case. |
18:58 |
Dyrcona |
If I wish to introduce a permission-based check to override this, I have to add the checks for the permissions in all of the multiple places the checks occur. |
18:59 |
Dyrcona |
I also rather naively based the permissions on the stop fines values from action.circulation, so I'm now I'm slightly stumped at the approach to take with the status of the copy. |
19:00 |
Dyrcona |
Pardon me. This is mostly thinking "out loud" at this point. |
19:01 |
Dyrcona |
The other problem, is the renew (and checkout tests) return COPY_NOT_AVAILABLE regardless of the copy's status. |
19:01 |
hbrennan |
I'm "listening" to ya, Dyrcona. :) |
19:02 |
Dyrcona |
heh. |
19:02 |
Dyrcona |
That means I have to check the copy's status yet again rather than relying on the return code from the database check. |
19:03 |
Dyrcona |
hbrennan: You will be getting a fine Evergreener as director of the Alaska Library Network. (I did remember correctly that you are from Alaska?) |

19:11 |

That's extra awesome. I was talking to my director yesterday about trying to get a deal on Zinio, for digital magazine subscriptions.. ideally we'd like to set it up as a consortium. |
19:12 |

We were both bummed to hear that there would be a few months lapse between positions, so that idea is on hold |

dbs |
Hey, I'm around a lot of the time! I'm just quiet. |
19:20 |
Dyrcona |
After doing the first renew check and pushing the COPY_NOT_AVAILABLE event, we go right into checkin. |
19:20 |
* Dyrcona |
used a global search and replace to print the subroutine names as they are called. |
19:22 |
Dyrcona |
In checkin, we push a COPY_STATUS_LOST, check bail_out (which hasn't been set), and then keep right on going. |
19:24 |
Dyrcona |
neato: We call checkin_handle_lost_or_lo_now_found twice in a row. I have to find out why. |
19:25 |
Dyrcona |
We get through checkin and push a SUCCESS event! So, we have 3 failures (this patron also owes too many fines, but I was ignoring that) and 1 success. |
19:26 |
Dyrcona |
Then, we do the indb circ tests again, but I don't think we've made it to checkout, yet. |
19:37 |
Dyrcona |
So, I should probably add a new function to be called from do_permit that checks for my particular conditions and permissions. |
19:39 |
Dyrcona |
Since this isn't a case of override permissions.... Err, wait.... |
19:40 |
* Dyrcona |
mulls the impact of override permissions. |
19:42 |
Dyrcona |
I guess it depends on what happens if we checkout something that was lost. |
19:43 |
Dyrcona |
Does the code checkin the previous circulation? (I doubt it.) |
19:44 |
Dyrcona |
Part of the reason for putting this here is if anyone has any ideas, they can chime in. |
19:45 |
Dyrcona |
I don't think we'd want to just override COPY_STATUS_LOST on a checkout. |
19:45 |
Dyrcona |
On a renewal, however, it makes sense if that is your policy. |
19:45 |
Dyrcona |
So, simple override permissions are out. |
19:46 |
hbrennan |
I agree. Don't want to override lost status going out |
19:46 |
* Dyrcona |
takes a break for food. |
