11:11 csharp_ who all is running the newer SIP2 Mediator in production?
11:12 csharp_ hitting some dumb issues with SIPServer that might Just Work™ on the newer SIP2 code
11:13 csharp_ (issues: 1) for some reason, Patron Information requests including Unavailable Holds are just timing out with little in the logs to suggest why
11:14 csharp_ 2) EG-side code for SIPServer is not aware of new-style item alerts which is causing a problem for automatic sorting)
11:14 csharp_ docs are scant from my searching
11:15 csharp_ sip2--
11:19 Dyrcona OpenAPI is the way to go.
11:19 csharp_ yeah
11:20 * Dyrcona says after opening a bug on OpenAPI this morning.
11:23 Dyrcona Think I'll file another about "console noise."
11:29 Dyrcona Mabye I'll check if that's an actual thing or something that I did with my new code.
11:30 csharp_ OpenAPI: was it something I typed?
11:32 Dyrcona It might be related to my fix of the bug I just reported. It might be something else.
11:32 Dyrcona I'll wait to commit my code until after I run another check.
11:33 Dyrcona OK. I think it is.
11:35 Dyrcona Yeahp. I don't get the "Use of uninitialized value in string eq at /openils/bin/openapi_server line 413" message unless I logout with Accept: application/json.
11:36 Dyrcona Think I'll undo my fix and see if it still happens. It may just be a bug with that way of logging out.
11:38 Dyrcona Yeah, it still happens without my fix for the object error, so maybe it's a different bug?
11:38 jeff csharp_: do you care about the item alert content, or just the fact that an item alert exists? do you want to be able to ignore some, or have things like checkout-only or checkin-only alerts that only fire on the respective events for SIP transactions?
11:39 jeff csharp_: irc isn't the best place to throw together a spec, but it isn't the worst. those have been bugging us for a long while, and we've tried to adjust workflows to not rely on them as much, but it would still be nice to have them back.
11:39 csharp_ jeff: probably *any* item alert - all the sorters to is place the item in question into an exceptions bin
11:40 * jeff nods
11:40 csharp_ jeff++
11:40 csharp_ s/to/do/
11:40 Dyrcona We have experimented with SIP mediator here, but I don't know OTTOMH if it knows about new style item alerts.
11:41 jeff we'd probably want to disregard alerts of certain types, especially "checkout" alerts, for items being returned/checked-in. i'll need to do some... gathering.
11:41 csharp_ jeff: makes sense
11:42 Dyrcona csharp_: Are you checking in via SIP2 or just looking up a copy status? (Can the latter be done? I'd have to look it up.)
11:42 csharp_ it's checkin
11:43 Dyrcona I guess it is a bit much to expect AMH vendors to switch to our OpenAPI...
11:44 csharp_ maybe - some vendors ask specifically on setup forms nowadays
11:44 csharp_ (for RESTful API)
11:44 Dyrcona Well... maybe that is the way to go.
11:48 Dyrcona If SIP2 checkin needs to return item alerts, you could open a bug on SIPServer's launchpad. I might get some time to look into it.
11:51 csharp_ Dyrcona: well the SIPServer end is fine - we need to set the Y for "has alert" or whatever from the ILS end
11:57 Dyrcona Ok.
11:57 Dyrcona And, now that I've dumped some data, I think this unitialized value thing might be worthy of its own bug.
11:58 * Dyrcona runs off to grab some lunch.

12:30 jeff yes, Bibliotheca will not be moving from SIP to some Evergreen-speficic API anytime soon. I'm fairly confident in that, but I'll keep my eye out for easily-digestible caps just in case. :-)
12:32 Dyrcona jeff: I'm finding all the bugs, so you won't have to. :)
12:33 jeff i don't follow.
12:33 jeff oh, I think I see what you thought I was saying. I wasn't saying that. :-)
12:33 jeff sorry, realization dawned as I hit enter. :-P
12:34 jeff (could have been worse)
12:59 Dyrcona S'OK.
13:00 Dyrcona I added a new git alias today that I'm finding to be very handy hr = "log --reverse --pretty=%H"
13:00 Dyrcona I added it to get a list of commits for an Ansible vars.yml updated, but I also found it useful in a bash for loop to cherry-pick a few commits.
13:01 Dyrcona example: for commit in $(git hr e4803461fb71f0c5296050a486846e6404731d1​5..working/user/dyrcona/lp2150148_wip); do git cherry-pick $commit; done
13:05 Dyrcona Sometimes, I hate Perl. All I succeeded in doing was changing the line number of the unitialized value error. I need to also check if the filed is defined.
13:42 Dyrcona Oh. The use Data::Dumper was not something that I added? I thought it was.....
15:01 jeff argh. bug 2055690.
15:02 jeff pinesol--
15:07 Dyrcona Yeah, we don't have a Launchpad plugin for the bot.

15:17 Bmagic so, did we lose Batch Edit from Record Buckets in Angular?
15:19 Bmagic nvm, I think it's behind a permission
15:22 Bmagic nope, it's just not a button in the actual bucket grid, but rather, an option back on the bucket browse grid interface
15:25 Bmagic It seems like it would be a sinch to include the button on the bucket interface? I suppose there's a level of complexity, as the user might not want to edit all* of the records, but only those that are seslected?
