Koha Hackfest in Berlin?
by Mirko Tietgen 07 Jan '16

07 Jan '16

Hello there, European (and other) Koha devs, I am considering hosting a Koha hackfest in Berlin/ Germany next year. It is not supposed to be a counter event to the Hackfest in Marseille nor the Kohacon, but an additional option to meet and work together. It could maybe take place July 2016 (very preliminary date for very preliminary planning), maybe 3 days or the whole week. Before I spend more time fantasizing about it, I'd like your opinion… - do you think it is a good idea (and you would consider joining)? - do you think it is a good idea (but you know you won't join)? - do you think it is not a good idea (given there is a Hackfest in Marseille and Kohacon already, or for other reasons)? - do you think you would have to decide between Berlin and Marseille? - do you think something completely different? No hard feelings if you say Kohacon + Marseille is enough, that would be very valuable feedback. For obvious reasons I would love to hear opinions from Europe (positive or negative), but if coming to Berlin is an option for people from more distant places, I'd love to hear that too. Cheers, Mirko -- Mirko Tietgen mirko(a)abunchofthings.net http://koha.abunchofthings.net http://meinkoha.de

Bootstrap 2.2.2 in the staff client
by David Cook 05 Oct '15

05 Oct '15

I was just looking to use ".text-success" in the staff client, when I noticed that it didn't appear to exist in bootstrap.min.css. even though it should. You can find it here in Bootstrap 2.2.2: https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/2.2.2/css/bootstrap.min.css But not in the version that we have in the staff client: http://koha:8080/intranet-tmpl/lib/bootstrap/bootstrap.min.css I'm guessing that during the integration of Bootstrap into the staff client that some things just didn't work, so the file was pared back? Perhaps Owen can speak to that one? David Cook Systems Librarian Prosentient Systems 72/330 Wattle St, Ultimo, NSW 2007

Add rule for no subroutines in PL scripts
by David Cook 02 Oct '15

02 Oct '15

Hi again: I also noticed there's no rule forbidding subroutine definitions in PL scripts. I thought that we had a rule against that as well. David Cook Systems Librarian Prosentient Systems 72/330 Wattle St, Ultimo, NSW 2007 From: David Cook [mailto:dcook@prosentient.com.au] Sent: Tuesday, 29 September 2015 12:27 PM To: 'koha-devel(a)lists.koha-community.org' <koha-devel(a)lists.koha-community.org> Subject: Add rule for experimental features in coding guidelines Hi all: I just noticed that we don't actually have a rule against using experimental features (e.g. smartmatch ~~, given/when) in the coding guidelines. We impose this rule during the testing/QA process, but it's not actually documented. What do we need to do to add a rule? Bring this up at a meeting? http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Coding_Guidelines David Cook Systems Librarian Prosentient Systems 72/330 Wattle St, Ultimo, NSW 2007

by Mason James 30 Sep '15

30 Sep '15

Hi Folks Jonathan and I are planning to use an bug/issue tracker for the koha-qa.pl tool We thought it would be a good idea to get some opinions from other Koha developers, on which tracker to use here is the list we currently have... 1/ use github.com 2/ use gitlab.com 3/ use a KC.org gitlab server (can someone provide a 2gig server?) 4/ use current KC.org bugzilla 6/ something else...? any opinions?

Kohadevbox for testing Packages+Plack
by Tomas Cohen Arazi 28 Sep '15

28 Sep '15

Hi everyone, I hope you had a great weekend :-D We have pushed a new branch to the kohadevbox repository. The branch is called 'ansible' and relies on that tool (Ansible) to load a full packages environment, suitable for testing Plack on packages. I already use it for my RM duties, daily. To try/use it, you need to: (1) Install the latest vagrant: https://www.vagrantup.com/downloads.html (2) Install the latest ansible: http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/intro_installation.html#latest-releases-via… (3) Install nfs-kernel-server (for re-using your host machine cloned repo) $ sudo apt-get install nfs-kernel-server (4) Clone the kohadevbox repo https://github.com/digibib/kohadevbox.git (5) Checkout the 'ansible' branch. (6) Dive into the directory, uncomment the lines you would like to tweak in vars/user.yml (email, name, bz configuration, etc) (7) Set an env variable pointing to your local koha clone (for example) $ export SYNC_REPO=/home/katrina/kohaclone (8) Launch kohadevbox for the desired distribution: $ vagrant up trusty or $ vagrant up wheezy or $ vagrant up jessie Once you have your vagrant environment up and running, you will have access to Koha like this: - OPAC: http://localhost:8080 - Staff: http://localhost:8081 After this, you can enable Plack from within the VM by running: $ vagrant ssh <os> # to get into $ sudo -s # gain root access $ koha-plack --enable kohadev $ koha-plack --start kohadev $ service apache2 restart Once you have it running and figure how easy is to destroy your environment and re-create it, you will really love this (+10000 to Magnus!). So, this is a pledge to all of you, to use it so we properly test Plack on packages for the next release.
