Tomas, I like the sound of your last proposal.

 

I haven’t had time to work on it, but I would certainly be willing to help.

Subject: Re: [Koha-devel] Koha Plugin Hooks documentation

 

The only thing I can say about actions that are triggered by CRUD operations, is that we should always try to make them async, so they don't make Koha slow. On that regard, I wrote a task queue on a plugin I recently work, so the hooks (in this case on circ operations) only store entries on the plugin's task queue table [1]. That's one possible approach.

 

That said, now that we have a real task queue, we could invest some time making it easy for Koha's task queue to route actions to plugin methods, so we take advantage of the built-in koha worker(s). So instead of just hooks that call a method, we could think of plugins that register themselves to be notified of a list of actions in Koha, and have the worker resolve the call to the right method.

 

This last proposal would of course be for 20.11+, for older versions, I stand with my first approach.

 

My 2 cents!

Thanks for this update Frido !

We are planning to use hooks to interact with external systems on patron modifications.

Basically, here what we are planning to implement :

  • Send updates to an external system when patron information is changed.
  • Let the external system know when restrictions change on a patron account.

Does anybody feels that could be useful ?

Any heads-up on the implementation ?

I just create this bugizlla : https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=27066

Thanks,

Eric

Hi,

I've worked on :
https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_Plugin_Hooks

Should be update with current hooks in master, and a few under development.

Please update this page when developing/integrating a new hook.

Best regards.
