Koha 22.05.04: Can't locate Koha/Script.pm in @INC
by Michael Kuhn 01 Nov '22

01 Nov '22

Hi I am running a fresh installation of Koha 22.05.04 on Debian 11. I am trying to load some data using "bulkmarcimport.pl": # export KOHA_CONF=/etc/koha/sites/library/koha-conf.xml # /usr/share/koha/bin/migration_tools/bulkmarcimport.pl -b -m marcxml -framework=ABC -file TITEL.marcxml -v 2 Can't locate Koha/Script.pm in @INC (you may need to install the Koha::Script module) (@INC contains: /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.32.1 /usr/local/share/perl/5.32.1 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl5/5.32 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl-base /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.32 /usr/share/perl/5.32 /usr/local/lib/site_perl) at /usr/share/koha/bin/migration_tools/bulkmarcimport.pl line 13. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/share/koha/bin/migration_tools/bulkmarcimport.pl line 13. "Script.pm" seems to be there: # ls -al /usr/share/koha/lib/Koha/Script.pm -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4129 24. Aug 07:51 /usr/share/koha/lib/Koha/Script.pm How can I get script "bulkmarcimport.pl" to actually run? Best wishes: Michael -- Geschäftsführer · Diplombibliothekar BBS, Informatiker eidg.

XSLT functions
by David Cook 31 Oct '22

31 Oct '22

Hi all, I've probably already shared this, but I thought that I'd share it again anyways. Here's a neat way you can create functions in your Koha XSLTs: <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:marc="http://www.loc.gov/MARC21/slim" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:common="http://exslt.org/common" xmlns:str="http://exslt.org/strings" xmlns:func="http://exslt.org/functions" xmlns:my="http://prosentient.com.au/xsltfunctions" extension-element-prefixes="func" exclude-result-prefixes="marc str my common"> <func:function name = "my:strToLower"> <xsl:param name="string" /> <xsl:variable name="lowercase" select="'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'" /> <xsl:variable name="uppercase" select="'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ'" /> <xsl:variable name="translated" select="translate($string, $uppercase, $lowercase)" /> <func:result select="$translated"/> </func:function> Most of the time you can probably just use templates with call-template and a parameter, but I find functions can just be really handy.

OAI-PMH harvester
by BOUIS Sonia 27 Oct '22

27 Oct '22

Hi, KohaLA would like to finance an OAI-PMH client in Koha but, we have questions that we want to raise to the community. There was already tries to propose an OAI-PMH client : - https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=10662 : it's an old project that doesnt seem compatible with the current version of Koha - https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=25905 : the scope is more to use an external OAI-PMH client and to connect it to Koha Our main question is about the way to handle this. Do you think that it's a better idea to use an external software or PERL routine and to find a way to connect it to Koha. Or would it be better to a new module in Koha from scratch and that Koha have his own OAI-PMH client. Please, let us hear your toughts about this projet.

Hi Katrin, It could be the case that it is tied to some localized configuration that we're using. Regardless, my worry is that changes to MARC may cause trickle-down changes to our implementation of Koha. Additional context, I'm new to my position, less than 12 weeks here. But the non-profit I work for has been using Koha for many years, so it's quite possible, likely even, that the institutional knowledge about our implementation has evaporated. I discovered the recent LoC change to 856 while researching our 2nd issue. How to ensure that the links for cover thumbnail images coming out of Koha have the alt text necessary for accessibility compliance.

Shortcodes in HTML areas
by David Cook 19 Oct '22

19 Oct '22

Hi all, I've been working with Wordpress plugins lately, and I've been thinking how the Wordpress shortcodes are really handy. They let you easily inject content from a plugin into any content area in Wordpress just by including something like "[my_search_results]". One use would be for Koha plugins to inject content. For something like Bywater's Coverflow, that could be quite interesting. It could also make it easier to inject content from plugins without having to rely on Javascript (although using Javascript with Koha plugin REST API routes is very nice). I was thinking it could be useful for moving around core Koha blocks of content like "Quote of the day", so the response is generated server-side but is still easily customizable. Anyway, it's just a thought. David Cook Senior Software Engineer Prosentient Systems Suite 7.03 6a Glen St Milsons Point NSW 2061 Australia Office: 02 9212 0899 Online: 02 8005 0595
