14:59 pinesol News from commits: Docs: Updating Authorities <https://git.evergreen-ils.org/?p=E​vergreen.git;a=commitdiff;h=11e8d6​7fa6b7e7aab0e92589a7b44ce40c7f862f>
15:45 mmorgan rfrasur: By "Server-side" print templates, do you mean org unit settings rather than workstation settings?
15:52 rfrasur Yes.
15:58 berick not sure if this helps or confuses, but the print templates at /eg2/en-US/staff/admin/ser​ver/config/print_template are stored in their own database table.  no settings involved.  Only used by Angular pages.
15:58 berick these are what I call "server print templates"
16:00 pinesol News from commits: Docs: Adding group penalty thresholds <https://git.evergreen-ils.org/?p=E​vergreen.git;a=commitdiff;h=5c6676​8a4d3319232c68c0728f0748de4a54cfd8>
16:00 rfrasur Hmm, that does kinda help.  I'm just wondering if anyone has actually gotten them going in production with more templates than the stock ones.
16:01 berick rfrasur: non-standard templates or modified stock templates?
16:01 mmorgan berick: The confusion was already in existence (for me anyway :)). I thought server side print templates might be a different thing than ws/ou settings.
16:01 rfrasur Thanks like checkout receipts
16:02 rfrasur Things
16:02 rfrasur Sheesh.  Obviously my brain isn't connecting to fingers well today.
16:03 rfrasur The fields that are referenced in the server side templates are different than the same templates in the workstation settings.  Or I've missed something fundamental.
16:03 berick ok, so a checkout receipt would not be a Server Print Template unless you're running the Angular Circ working branch
16:03 rfrasur Oh.  Hmm.
16:03 rfrasur That makes sense.
16:03 rfrasur So, that's a "not yet" thing anyway.
16:05 rfrasur All of those receipts that are circ related are dependent on using angular circ.  That a fair assessment?
16:05 berick yeah.  a checkout receipt would be the angjs style where if you save changes you are saving them to workstation settings.
16:05 berick my 'yeah' was for previous comment
16:05 rfrasur Got it.
16:05 berick rfrasur: "all thos receipts" ?  where exactly
16:06 rfrasur Well, anything that's still AngularJS.  So, if it's the AngularJS Checkin, and there's a transit slip, that's going to be AngularJS.  (though I think that's probably an oversimplification)
16:07 rfrasur Items Out receipt is currently going to have to be workstation template because that production interface is angularJS.
16:07 berick yes, exactly
16:08 berick there are only a few Server Print Templates in stock EG at the moment.  just a handful
16:08 rfrasur Yep.
16:08 rfrasur And now I understand why it's not just a matter of cloning them and adding in some AngularJS code.
16:08 rfrasur Thank you.
16:09 mmorgan rfrasur: What are you trying to accomplish regarding the receipts?
16:09 rfrasur Go to all server managed receipts so that we never have to expoort/import templates again.
16:10 berick that's the spirit!
16:10 rfrasur And we can help our member libraries with the customizations if they want them, and let them run wild and leave us alone (oh...wait...not the last part)
16:10 mmorgan You *can* potentially do that with the ws/ou settings. We have done some of that.
16:11 mmorgan When you save a angjs checkout receipt template on a workstation, it sets a workstation setting in the database with the name "eg.print.template.checkout"
16:11 rfrasur Yeah, too complex.  We have a very, very tight ship right now.  And a brand new sys admin.
16:11 mmorgan Ok, gotcha!
16:12 rfrasur That is a great idea, but we just don't have sys admin capacity.  And then there's me...and the good lord knows EYE don't have the capacity for much.  Conversion of biological matter to energy.  So, I guess that's something cool.
16:13 mmorgan Just to finish the thought, you can create the org unit setting type "eg.print.template.checkout" and copy the value from the configured workstation setting.
16:14 rfrasur ++
16:14 mmorgan But it is complex and potentially time consuming.
16:14 rfrasur That really is pretty clever though.
16:14 mmorgan Yeah. berick is clever :)
