11:23 csharp any nginx proxiers out there dealt with endless HTTPS redirects with reporter links?
11:24 berick i hit a redirect wall a few days ago.  can't remember if it was in the reporter.  didn't stop to investigate.
11:30 JBoyer While I'm looking into something real quick but before going down a rabbit hole, is there a way to join in pcrud calls? (wouldn't be surprised if not, but wanted to check)
11:32 berick JBoyer: pcrud supports fleshing
11:32 berick so IDL-blessed joins are there
11:33 JBoyer Hmm. Will have to check the IDL then, because I don't know if I can get to acplo from acpl...
11:34 berick JBoyer: you can
11:34 JBoyer Sweet.
11:35 JBoyer so flesh: "orders" perhaps?
11:35 JBoyer {flesh: "orders"} I mean.
11:39 berick flesh:1, flesh_fields:{acpl:['orders']}
11:42 dbs csharp: I don't think we've seen that
11:42 dbs csharp: do you get that consistently?
11:45 csharp dbs: on reporter links that come through email is the only place I've seen it so far
11:45 JBoyer berick++ # that would have taken me a bit to figure out.
11:46 berick JBoyer: does that mean it worked? :)
11:47 JBoyer Not yet, just getting to where it needs to be.
11:49 berick webstaff++ # performing admirably through a 2800-mile long VPN to a modest test server
11:50 berick minus the embedded dojo UI's, unfortunately.  those take a while to load
11:51 * berick looks forward to adding some nginx caching
11:53 kmlussier berick: Funny you should say that. I just came across my first case of 'Wow! That loaded slowly' in the web client today.
11:53 * kmlussier was retrieving the record holds screen for a very popular title.
11:55 kmlussier And then I asked for sorting, which probably wouldn't help matters.
11:59 berick kmlussier: view holds, under record details page?
12:01 kmlussier berick: Yes, it was a title with 158 holds. It could be the hardware since it was a test server, but I hadn't seen it in other parts of the web client.
12:01 berick kmlussier: hm, i can't sort on that page.. is sorting new?
12:02 * berick updates
12:02 kmlussier berick: No, this wasn't when I was sorting it. It was retrieving holds for a pickup location. Sorry, I just mentioned sorting in relation to a bug I just filed requesting that it be made available.
12:04 berick kmlussier: gotcha...  when it's slow, are you displaying 25 holds per grid page?
12:04 * berick notes the hold details API is one of the slower APIs that gets heavy use.
12:06 kmlussier berick: Yes, that's one of the reasons I was surprised.
12:06 kmlussier This one isn't the best example, but here's a case where the pickup location just had three holds. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0​B74gDMUDwDXqSGpTZ2hKM3VTeTg/view
12:08 khuckins joined #evergreen
12:09 kmlussier Oops, actually, I just deleted that one. I just noticed there were barcodes in that video. I thought I had removed those.
12:10 berick kmlussier: huh, yeah.  that looks like a case of slow api more than slow UI
12:10 kmlussier berick: gotcha
12:10 dbs csharp: yeah haven't had a problem, I really need to blog our settings
12:11 berick kmlussier: not to discount it, of course
12:45 Dyrcona So, that memory issue with opensrf-c that I mentioned yesterday afternoon. It's definitely the Creator filter in Acq/Issuances.
12:46 Dyrcona I just tried it on a vm and watched a drone's memory use go up to about 2GB before I killed it.
12:54 kmlussier Dyrcona: Is that in acq or serials?
12:54 Dyrcona Serials, sorry.
12:56 Dyrcona Serials/Acquistions....It's all jargon to me. :P
14:21 dbs csharp et al: https://coffeecode.net/our-nginx-cac​hing-proxy-setup-for-evergreen.html
14:21 dbs jeffdavis: ^
14:21 berick dbs++
14:22 jeffdavis dbs++ # awesome, thanks for writing that up!
14:22 dbs I make no claims that our setup is perfect, but it is what we're currently using
14:26 csharp dbs++
14:30 terran berick: I want to customize our web client patron reg form to add a bit of 'Example: GA-123456789' text next to the primary ID field - can you point me in the right direction?
14:33 berick terran: sounds like field documentation..  /eg/staff/admin/local/config/idl_field_doc
14:33 berick admin -> local admin -> field documetnation
14:33 berick lemme see if it works in the browser. (i think it does)
14:35 berick so field docs work, but they add a question mark on the field, which has to be clicked to see the docs.  so, you're describing the other thing..
14:35 kmlussier berick: It worked when I tested the patron editor way back when.
14:35 * csharp has always wondered what "field documentation" means :-)
14:36 berick terran: i think you want the org unit setting example text
14:36 kmlussier csharp / berick: I just posted a link to the documentation on the general list about 15 minutes ago.
14:36 csharp heh
14:37 berick oh thanks kmlussier

15:29 terran joined #evergreen
15:32 terran of course irc freezes on me right when I need it
15:33 terran hrrm... for some reason I'm not able to save field documentation on our 2.12.4 test server - I can on our 2.11 server, but it doesn't show up in our form.
15:35 berick terran: did you see my comment about org settings for example text?
15:35 berick if you want the help info to be permanently visible you'll want to go the OUS route
15:36 terran Yes, that sounds like where I need to go
15:36 berick Field Documentation is better for long-form help docs, OUS is better for short examples
15:38 berick hm, may have to create an org setting..
15:39 terran Yeah, I don't see one for ID... if I put "GA-" in the ident value suggest, that might work...
15:39 terran No, that doesn't do what I thought it did
15:40 berick arg, yeah, just a few fields have org settings created.  the UI form is smart enough to display any, but the setting would have to be created and the setting name added to the list of settings to load for the form (in regctl.js)
15:40 berick very do-able, though, just not quite as easy as originally thought
15:40 terran yeah
15:41 bshum terran: For your 2.12 issue not being able to save field doc changes, if you're using an nginx proxy in front, you might be encountering this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/opensrf/+bug/1684970
15:41 pinesol_green Launchpad bug 1684970 in OpenSRF "Proxy setup masks client IP needed by osrf-http-translator" [Medium,Confirmed]
15:41 terran In the old client, I just added it to the tt2 file. Something something about progress making life more complicated?
15:42 bshum csharp: See that bug if you're trying out nginx fun
15:42 bshum And berick's workaround and dbs notes
15:42 berick terran: ohhh
15:42 berick terran: you can also do that :)
15:42 terran Thanks bshum! (csharp is driving home at the moment)
15:43 terran berick: can I? I wasn't able to find a place where I could.
15:44 berick terran: yeah, lemme try something..
15:51 berick haha
15:52 berick omg, note to self: disable nginx cache during development
15:52 berick *headdesk*
15:53 miker Dyrcona: I'm giving you a run for your money on wording today. ;)   quoth I in an LP ticket just now: "the search service started data from the loading the ils_events file" ... how does one shift a word 3 to the right?
15:55 pastebot "berick" at 64.57.241.14 pasted "for terran" (18 lines) at http://paste.evergreen-ils.org/644
16:01 Dyrcona :)
