Stage MARC for import - barcodes with zero padding before a number...
by Duncan Entwisle 21 Jun '18

21 Jun '18

Hi Everyone, I'm in the process of trying to migrate resources from another system with barcodes that are in the format 00235. (There's 19000 resources, so changing the barcodes would be problematic.) When I stage them for import, Koha appears to treat it as a number, and strips off the preceding zeros. I've used MarcEdit to generate the resultant mrc file for import, and have previewed it to confirm that it still has the zero in the 952$p field. So it's not being pre-stripped by MarcEdit. Does anyone know how I might get around this? Thanks, Duncan. P.S. I'm an ICT Technician, not a librarian, so the whole MARC thing has been a steep learning curve :-)

Introducing a Puppet module for Koha
by Jérôme Charaoui 20 Jun '18

20 Jun '18

Dear Koha users and developpers, I would like to introduce to you a new Koha Puppet module: https://gitlab.com/cmaisonneuve/puppet-koha This work has been sponsored by my employer: Collège de Maisonneuve (http://www.cmaisonneuve.qc.ca/) Puppet is an open-source configuration management platform aimed at enabling automation of software deployments. The Puppet Koha module can take care of configuring the Koha APT repository, installing the koha-common package, managing the Koha configuration files and templates, installing and configuring the Apache webserver, and, of course, creating and managing Koha instances. You don't need a full server/client Puppet deployment to use this module: it also works with a standalone agent. It's currently light on tests and documentation, but I hope to fix this in future releases. Bug reports and merge requests welcome! Thanks, -- Jerome

Fwd: [Koha-oz] FW: RFC for overhauling notices
by Chris Cormack 19 Jun '18

19 Jun '18

Hi all Please take the time to consider Brimbank’s RFC for an overhaul to the notices system. The short descriptions is that we’d like to bring management of all notice types together, treating overdues like all other notices, and making print notices a first class citizen at the same time. Currently dealing with print notices in a medium-large public library is …challenging. RFC is here: https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Notices_Overhaul_RFC Bugzilla is here: https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=20962 Please note this is a sponsored project so we are not really looking to extend the proposal further, but seeking advice on whether anyone else is already working on something similar, or the proposed way forward is a bad idea for some important reason. ***Please provide feedback and suggestions by Monday 9 July*** either in the bug, or via email to library(a)brimbank.vic.gov.au

How to introduce a new user-permission to Koha?
by Markus Becker 19 Jun '18

19 Jun '18

Dear Koha-Community, i did not find any hint oder documentation, where the permissions for using tools etc. are stored. My example: For testing purpose i want to insert my own perl-script into Koha and it should appear on the "tools"-page. The links on this page are shown to the user or not depending on the permissions he has: (tools-home.tt) [% IF ( CAN_user_tools_manage_staged_marc ) %] <dt><a href="/cgi-bin/koha/tools/bibliotheca_convert.pl">Bibliotheca-Datei hochladen</a></dt> <dd>Werkzeug um BIBLIOTHECAplus-Exportdatei für den Import hochzuladen</dd> [% END %] I can not find the place, where these rights are deposited. How does Koha know if a certain right is existing? I found the file permissions.inc but changes there did not having any effect. Of cource i could use the permission "CAN_user_tools_manage_staged_marc" for my own script (and then the link is shown), but IMHO it would be not correct to "steal" the permission of another script. I would be very grateful if someone could give me a hint how to introduce the permission to start my script to Koha. Thank You very much in Advance, Markus Becker
