templates
by Tonnesen Steve 30 Oct '02

30 Oct '02

I'd like to propose moving the templates directories out of htdocs and into INTRANETDIR/templates/ and OPACDDIR/templates/ I have a couple of reasons for requesting this change: 1. Template files should never be served up by the web server. I don't anticipate any sensitive data being stored in the templates, but they don't _need_ to be served up by the web server, so they should _not_ be in the document root. Configuring Apache to not serve .tmpl files is an unnecessary hack. 2. During upgrades, it is necessary to preserve custom template directories. If the templates are together and alone in one directory this will be much easier. The htdocs directory is getting pretty empty with all the templating work, but it might contain some on-line documentation at some point. Steve Tonnesen.

Unless you are Steve@CMSD, or you work for HLT or Katipo, you should to make sure you are on this list as a contributor. I have _not_ been proactive (sorry, but that is the way the cookie crumbles :) ) about making sure I get every new contributing head that pops up. Tip: since there has been only one major release of the manual (with Koha 1.2), if your contributions came after that, you're probably not on the list. PLEASE check this, and get back to me .... this is really the only way we have to make sure everyone's effort gets acknowledged, which we like to do --really! [People who sit on the french, german and devel lists, I'd appreciate it if you could handle making sure those who don't speak english get this, thank you.] Your Documeister, Nick ...who has sent out this sort of request before. --------------------------------------- Koha Credits Horowhenua Library Trust Rosalie Blake, Head of Libraries Jo Ransom Katipo Communications Rachel Hamilton-Williams, General Manager (Webmistress) Simon Blake, Technical Manager, Server Administrator Amanda Atkins, Operations Manager Chris Cormack, 1.2 release guru Olwen Williams Finlay Thompson Gynn Lomax Richard Anderson Jeremy Blake, Katipo Koha Project Manager Rebecca Holden, New Koha.org page Olive T.

Upgrading Koha
by Tonnesen Steve 30 Oct '02

30 Oct '02

As 1.2.3 nears we need to start thinking about how Koha gets upgraded. I have two areas of concern for myself: 1. Preserving custom templates Is 'default' always going to be the only template distributed with Koha? What happens if we start to distribute a template that has the same name as somebody's custom template? Should we have a naming convention for templates distributed with Koha? Other than default, all distributed templates start with koha-, like koha-braillereader, koha-glitzy, etc? Then recommend that custom templates _not_ have the koha- prefix? 2. Preserving custom report scripts I propose that we create a subdirectory called "localreports" in INTRANETDIR/cgi-bin/ that is preserved across upgrades. We also need some convention for generating a list of local (and koha distributed) reports in reports-home.pl. Steve.

1.2.3RC21
by Tonnesen Steve 29 Oct '02

29 Oct '02

I think that 1.2.3RC21 is getting pretty close to release ready. If anybody can spare some time to install this release candidate and let me know of any bugs they find, it would sure help get it out the door faster. I'm also uploading a new kohacd image based on 1.2.3RC21. It should be available within the next 20 minutes or so... Steve Tonnesen

differences between 1.2 and main branches
by paul POULAIN 28 Oct '02

28 Oct '02

Hi, I tried to see the differences between 1.2 and main branch... Something like : diff -r -b -B --exclude=*.*~ --exclude=*CVS* --exclude=Biblio.pm --exclude=ChangeLog --exclude=acqui.simple --exclude=admin ~/koha.dev ~/koha.v1.2 |grep -v "< #" - |grep -v "> #" - >~/diff.txt (the --exclude are for files that are differents and should stay as it, both grep are to drop comments) Results is a file being 16652 line long !!!! About 30% of the differences are minors (spaces, indents, cr...) an other 15-20% seems to be predictible/normal diffs (for example, functions in main branch that is not in in 1.2) So, there is still around 8 000 lines that are in 1.2 and should be in main branch too... What do we do ? 4 months ago (july 4th), i ended a (nightmare) merge, and warned to be very carefull with the differences between them. It seems i haven't been heard... So, do who want to merge everything again ? -- Paul

[Bug 113] "class" does not narrow search

http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=113 ------- Additional Comments From vhuhtala(a)paju.oulu.fi 2002-10-28 01:07 ------- from modules/C4/Search.pm: sub catalogsearch { my ($env,$type,$search,$num,$offset)=@_; my $dbh = C4Connect(); foreach my $key (%$search){ ! if (length($search->{$key}) < 3){ undef ($search->{$key}); } } changing it to if (length($search->{$key}) < 1){ helps. Of cource now also one char long title etc. searches are accepted. There is still a bug somewhere, items with no itemrecord (and group record ?) are also found when using "class" to narrow search title=sun 1. JNF Sun and Stars (Barrett, N.S.) 2. <> Sunflakes & snowshine (Newman, F.) 3. JF The Sun (Code-SUN (Asimov, Isaac) no 2. is found in JF search. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact.
