We've had a couple of libraries report issues on intermittent service for their self check machines. We're on 3.5.4 and use OpenKiosk for the interface. Any thoughts? |
| 10:41 |
mmorgan |
mantis: Not sure why they would see problems in Evergreen selfcheck but not client and opac. Could there be connectivity issues? |
| 10:49 |
berick |
mantis: any chance the kiosks are going long stretches of time without use? the auth tokens could be timing out. |

we commissioned a new AMH last week. the mapping of shelving location to sort bin is... different, and a bit more annoying than the previous AMH. |
| 10:59 |
jeff |
as such, I'm looking at moving that information into Evergreen and returning sort bin in the checkin response. |
| 11:00 |
jeff |
this part of the protocol docs is amusing to me: |
| 11:01 |
jeff |
"This field should contain a bin number that indicates how the items should be sorted. The maximum practical number of sort bins for a patron using 3M SelfCheck system is probably only 3 or 4, but many digits are allowed to accommodate some sort of fantastic sorting device using a hierarchical bin numbering scheme." |
| 11:04 |
Dyrcona |
That's in the AMH documentation? |
| 11:05 |
jeff |
That's in SIP2 Protocol Definition.pdf :-) |
| 11:05 |
jeff |
(the SIP spec from 3M, Updated April 11, 2006) |
| 11:05 |
berick |
heh |
| 11:06 |
Dyrcona |
I missed that before, but I usually just go in looking for what I want at the moment. |
| 11:07 |
Dyrcona |
Field CL... That might be a useful addition to Evergreen. |
| 11:09 |
jeff |
previously we used a Google Sheets document and a perl script to generate our sort matrix XML (in two different formats, since we had returns using two different versions of the software) |
| 11:10 |

The above is nice for adding more settings to an existing script and just running it again. lazy++ |

berick: I think the traffic with the self checks at one library is used pretty often but the other unsure; I could ask for more info |
| 11:18 |
mantis |
mmorgan: I also thought it was a connectivity problem, too, with the machines |
| 11:38 |

berick | csharp_: I'm working on Quipu integration, and I'm thinking of moving the barcode generation to open-ils.actor.generate_barcode, a new API. If you don't think that's a good idea, I wonder if it should go into AppUtils. I think this could be useful elsewhere in the future. |
| 11:40 |
Dyrcona |
Funny how things that sound like good ideas (like adding an entirely new service) end up being cast aside when the rubber meets the road. |
| 11:41 |
Dyrcona |
I think I'll add it to AppUtils as a function for now. |
| 11:43 |
berick |
Dyrcona: either makes sense to me |
| 11:43 |
berick |
or both, for that matter :) |
| 11:46 |
Dyrcona |
Yeah. I'll start with a function in AppUtils. It would be easy to add an API later, if needed. |
| 11:49 |
Dyrcona |
Also, wrapping an API around a utility function might present the opportunity to hide some implementation details. |
| 12:02 |

When scanning a barcode in, 'cannot read length of 'null'' comes up via console. This only happens with some barcodes. |
| 12:02 |
mantis |
^sorry this is with the self-check interface |

mantis: hm, that code assumes a patron email will be reasonably formatted |
| 12:39 |
berick |
mantis: i'm guessing this user has a funky email address |
| 12:39 |
berick |
that code should be smarter, though |
| 12:40 |
Dyrcona |
Maybe no email address at all. |
| 12:40 |
mantis |
berick: Right she doesn't have an email associated with this account |
| 12:40 |
mantis |
And our self check offers email receipts |
| 12:40 |
berick |
mantis: any chance a value is present in the email field that's not a valid email address? |
| 12:41 |
berick |
say, a blank space |
| 12:41 |
mmorgan |
Does the selfcheck observe the email checkout receipts by default user setting? |
| 12:42 |
mmorgan |
mantis: Does the patron have that preference set? |
| 12:44 |
berick |
that line of code should probably read: https://gist.github.com/berick/553ebda254a15e363ca019a5fb8dcd21 |
| 12:44 |
mantis |
Ah the patron I'm searching says "no email" |
| 12:46 |
mantis |
Thank you all kindly |

mantis: We have the org unit setting ui.patron.edit.au.email.regex set to this for the consortium: "[A-Za-z0-9._%+-]+@[A-Za-z0-9.-]+\\.[A-Za-z]{2,4}" |
| 12:49 |
mmorgan |
So the patron record can't be saved unless the email field *looks* like an actual email address. |
| 12:49 |
mantis |
We were able to do something with our user preferences to unrequire the email address field when the box is unchecked. |
| 12:50 |
mantis |
But that's a great suggestion thank you |

The actor.generate_barcode function seems to not work under certain circumstances that I have not figured out yet. |
| 14:17 |
Dyrcona |
I get an undef barcode, but that should only happen if the length is too short, which it isn't. |
| 14:19 |
Dyrcona |
Hmm... It is too short... That's odd. |

Tryna be too clever. It wasn't the db function after all, just my Perl code. |
| 14:25 |

Grr.... It's still isn't working! |

Give up on being clever and it works. :) |

I think that I sometimes forget to do git pull before make install, also, so my fix doesn't always end up on the test system. |
| 15:51 |
Dyrcona |
Hrm... I got o eg/opac/home on my test VM and Chrome 92 complains about too many redirects. I add a trailing slash, and it loads then ends up at a 404. |
| 15:52 |

Hmm. Maybe that's not quire right, either. It's loading without /, now. |
