Hello Hugo,

For my plugin I had to change some things in plack.psgi file, otherwise Perl code wouldn't get executed.

First add the plugins source directory to the cached perl files :

my $plugins = Plack::App::CGIBin->new( root => '/home/koha/var/lib/plugins/' )->to_app;

Secondly in the "builder" section of plack.psgi add a /plugins mount point:

mount '/plugins' => $plugins;

Then in nginx config you can add the following lines:

rewrite     ^/recommendations.pl$ /plugins/Koha/Plugin/Com/Liliputech/RecommenderEngine/recommendations.pl;

location /plugins {

         include /home/koha/etc/nginx.d/plack_proxy.conf;

}

Good morning

There is any new on this? we have tried to install EDS plugin to Koha, but it doesn't appear on the intranet (I guess because of plack) , but there is on the plugin folder... I am going to contact ebsco, but if any body wish to share some info on it... I will pass to EBSCO

Kindest Regards

Some of the tricks used to integrate code from an intranet plugin on OPAC are explained here.

https://github.com/bywatersolutions/koha-plugin-coverflow#setup

This "Setup" part explains quite well the Apache config modifications needed to let users access coverflow.pl from OPAC, and why does this "coverflow.pl" exist.

the EDS plugin documentation lacks this information about Apache conf.

(actually it doesn't but it is digged really deep : https://github.com/ebsco/edsapi-koha-plugin/wiki/Apache-Setup)

Hi Arthur,

The intranet part of the "plugin" is a plugin, so yes, it goes into the scope of Plack.

But the eds-*.pl files (https://github.com/ebsco/edsapi-koha-plugin/tree/master/Koha/Plugin/EDS/opac) don't. That's the OPAC part of the "plugin", that is not really a plugin

Hello Paul,

I don't know much about EDS nor Plack but I've been playing with koha plugin functionality lately.

I guess you're talking about this plugin : https://github.com/ebsco/edsapi-koha-plugin

does the koha plugin directory falls in the Plack scope?

If koha is installed from Source, this directory is "$KOHA_USERDIR/var/lib/plugins/"

(I don't know for debian package, but probably something like /var/lib/koha/plugins)

Hope this helps.

Arthur

Hello friends,

We've deployed Koha 3.22, running Plack and the EDS plugin, and it appears that it does not work. We think it's because there are some .pl code that is out of plack scope, so it's not run. Is there anyone here who has some experience with koha / Plack / EDS ?

(Frido will probably send a patch to Ebsco in the next days if there's no other ida)
