My work on head advances faster than I expected...

With todays commits, we can : * ADD and MODIFY BIBLIOS and ITEMS when MARC=ON only. * that updates the zebra database as well if you configured it correctly. See below how to configure the zebra for Koha. It's a 1st step, we will need more user-friendly tools later ! * if you query the zebrasrv with yaz-client or another z3950 client, you should get nice results. But still nothing if you search in Koha. * don't try to delete a biblio or an item, you would get a nice system crash !

HOW TO MAKE THE ZEBRA RUN : =========================== * go to koha cvs home directory * in misc/zebra there is a unimarc directory. I suggest that a marc21 libraries create a marc21 directory (& commit it to cvs to share ;-) )

* create a *biblios* directory under your marc21 directory

* put your zebra.cfg files here & create your database. * from koha cvs home directory, ln -s misc/zebra/marc21 zebra (I mean create a symbolic link to YOUR zebra directory) * now, everytime you add/modify a biblio/item your zebra DB is updated correctly.

NOTE : * this uses a system call in perl. CPU consumming, but we are waiting for indexdata Perl/zoom * deletion still not work * UNIMARC zebra config files are provided in misc/zebra/unimarc directory. The most important line being : in zebra.cfg : recordId: (bib1,Local-number) storeKeys:1

in .abs file : elm 090 Local-number - elm 090/? Local-number - elm 090/?/9 Local-number !:w

(090$9 being the field mapped to biblio.biblionumber in Koha)
