Testing help requested! Bug 23013, DataTables upgrade
by Owen Leonard 19 Jul '19

19 Jul '19

I would love to get some help testing a patch I wrote which upgrades the DataTables plugin in the staff client and adds some new style to the default DataTables toolbar. https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=23013 The patch is too big to post on Bugzilla, so I created a branch on GitLab: https://gitlab.com/koha-dev/koha-dev/tree/bug-23013-datatables-upgrade I've also posted a patch here in case that's easier for people to manage: https://zivotdesign.com/download/bug-23013.patch Thanks in advance, Owen -- Web Developer Athens County Public Libraries https://www.myacpl.org

Account details email after verification
by akafortes 13 Jul '19

13 Jul '19

Hello everyone! Is it possible to send the Account Details Notice to a new Patron, after he has used the email verification? In hopes to make the use case clear: 1. New member registers using "Self Registration" 2. The verification email is sent 3. Patron follows the activation link and verifies his new account 4. *This is what I want to do now* *Email is sent with the account details of the Patron* Is there a way to make this happen? Thank you. -- Sent from: http://koha.1045719.n5.nabble.com/Koha-devel-f3063671.html

Virtualbox 6.0 compatible with Hyper-V
by dcook＠prosentient.com.au 12 Jul '19

12 Jul '19

Hi all Windows users, Just mentioning that Virtualbox 6.0 apparently can use Hyper-V as a backend, so if you're frustrated because Docker Desktop uses Hyper-V, which prevents you from using VMware or Virtualbox, your prayers have now seemingly been answered. I haven't tried it out, but that's what I'm told: https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Changelog-6.0 I really like using Docker Desktop for all my development now, but sometimes it might be necessary to use Virtualbox, so nice to have this as an option.

Re: [Koha-devel] Library limits
by BOUIS Sonia 11 Jul '19

11 Jul '19

Hello Tomas, I don't have an opinion (I don't really understand the question in fact...) but, I'm wondering if there's any link with the question I have sent few month ago : http://koha.1045719.n5.nabble.com/Branches-limitations-for-locations-td6006… Cheers, Sonia Message: 1 Date: Fri, 5 Jul 2019 16:46:29 -0300 From: Tomas Cohen Arazi <tomascohen(a)gmail.com> To: koha-devel <koha-devel(a)lists.koha-community.org> Subject: [Koha-devel] Library limits Message-ID: <CABZfb=WHGQoOh=xaxmJfE04UNZ_G3DpV=425EoLu9ROvv2pLqA(a)mail.gmail.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" Hi, I have filed this the following bugs now: https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=23272 <- this one has patches https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=23271 The idea is that we have Koha::Object::Limit::Library, currently only used in Koha::Patron::Attribute::Type, and we should use it as a reference. But I have a question: I noticed in Koha::AuthorisedValues we overload ->search by allowing it to have a (surprise?) parameter: branchcode. I ->use the word 'surprise' because we've been leaning to the 'least surprise' principle and allowing to pass an attribute name that isn't in the model, seems like a surprise we would like to avoid. I would like to propose we create an analogous Koha::Objects::Limit::Library class (notice the plural), implementing a specialized search method, with a name that clearly states the goal as discussed previously in the context of a bug I now don't remember :-D In the lines of sub search_with_branch_limits { my ( $self, $params, $attributes, $library_id ) = @_; my $or = $library_id ? { '-or' => [ 'authorised_values_branches.branchcode' => undef, 'authorised_values_branches.branchcode' => $library_id, ] } : {}; my $join = $library_id ? { join => 'authorised_values_branches' } : {}; $attributes //= {}; $attributes = { %$attributes, %$join }; return $self->SUPER::search( { %$params, %$or, }, $attributes ); } Note: I'd replace the table and column names for the configured ones. Opinions? -- Tom?s Cohen Arazi Theke Solutions (http://theke.io) ? +54 9351 3513384 GPG: B2F3C15F

Hi Folks Has anyone hit a problem searching callnumbers with Koha and ICU - specifically callnumbers with SPACE ' ' characters? An example problematic callnumber is 'PZ 7 .W663 1984' Or, has anyone had *success* searching callnumbers with ICU? :) Either way, I'd be curious to hear from you I tested on Koha 18.05.12 and Debian 9.8 Cheers, Mason
