[Koha-devel] record into database from script?

[Jason Ronallo]

Hi,
I'm writing a command line script for rapid copy cataloging. At the
moment it's very specific to my library, but I hope to make it more
generic and useful for others.

It adds on item level information, so I bulkmarcimport the saved files
and the records are immediately active in the catalog. It also outputs
a csv list that I use for printing labels in glabels.

What I'm wondering is how I can get my script to push a MARC record
into the active database or at least into the reservoir? I'm imagining
that the script is being used by a copy cataloger and not the
administrator of the machine, so calling bulkmarcimport won't work. Or
would I be able to change group permissions on bulkmarcimport.pl, make
the copy catalogers (who are on Linux boxes) members of the group, and
then when they run the script their call to bulkmarcimport.pl will
work?

What other options are there?
