Koha's SIP2 server sends the patron's name in the format "Firstname
Surname" which is not very good for machine reading. We need to allow
the format of the patron name to be customized in a manner similar to
what is done with the DA field on bug 16755.
Test Plan:
1) Apply this patch, start or restart your SIP server
2) Find a patron with a first and last name
3) Send a patron information request via the sip2 cli tool
4) Note the AE field has the format "<firstname> <surname>" ( i.e. the current behavior )
5) Add this parameter to the login stanza you are using:
ae_field_template="[% patron.surname %][% IF patron.firstname %], [% patron.firstname %][% END %]"
6) Restart your SIP server
7) Repeat step 3
8) Note the AE field now has the format "<surname>, <firstname>"

The SIP2 DA field that Koha transmits is an odd and arbitrary format
that some SIP2 clients cannot handle. It would be best if this
format were customizable on a per-login basis in the same manner as
the AV field.
Test Plan:
1) Find an item that is checked out with holds
2) Return the item via SIP2 ( using the SIP2 cli emulator )
3) Note the value of the DA field
4) Apply this patch, restart your SIP2 server
5) Repeat step 2
6) Note the DA field value has not changed
7) Add this parameter to the login stanza you are using:
da_field_template="[% patron.surname %][% IF patron.firstname %], [% patron.firstname %][% END %]"
8) Restart the SIP2 server again
9) Repeat step 2
10) Note the DA field returned is now in the format "$surname, $firstname"

Many SIP2 services such as those by Comprise Technologies are able to or
require that an ILS be able to accept writeoffs via SIP2. The SIP2
protocol specifies that payment type be a two digit number, but does not
specify a code for writeoffs. To this end we should allow the write-off
code to be specified in the SIP2 config on a per-account basis so that
if different vendors use different fixed codes for write-offs we can
handle that gracefully.
Test Plan:
1) Apply this patch
2) Modify your SIP2 config to include
payment_type_writeoff="06"
in the login portion of the account you will be using for the test.
3) Restart your SIP2 server
4) Create a fee for a patron
5) Send a SIP2 fee paid message specifying the payment type code we
defined earlier, with a payment amount that is *not* equal to the
amount outstanding for the fee.
6) Note the fee paid response indicates the payment failed
7) Repeat step 5, but this time send the amount outstanding as the
payment amount
8) Note that the fee paid response indicates a successful payment
9) Note in Koha that the fee has been written off!

Most selfchecks have persistent connections and send a
periodic status request at intervals (approx every 5mins appears
the norm) The timeout was dropping connections by default every 30secs
which for the client appears as a very flakey network.
This patch adds a separate parameter client_timeout that can be
used if you do want to force a disconnect if the client sends
no requests for a period. The sample config sets it to 600, but you
can also define a 0 value meaning no timeout. If the parameter is not
defined, it will fallback to service timeout.

Restored this patch from Colin in order to separate it from the
get_timeout patch. Adjusted the commit message slightly.
The original value of 600 from Colin's earlier patch may give less
discussion than setting to 0 (no timeout) in a later proposal.

Koha's SIP2 server should have support for the AV field ( field items ).
The biggest problem with this field is that its' contents are not really
defined in SIP2 protocol specification. All it says is "this field
should be sent for each fine item". Due to this, I think the contents of
the field need to be configurable at the login level, so that the
contents can be defined based on the SIP2 devices requirements for the
AV field.
Test Plan:
1) Apply this patch
2) Find a patron with outstanding fines
3) Run a patron information request using misc/sip_cli_emulator.pl using the new -s option with the value " Y "
4) Note there is an AV field for each fee containing the description and amount
5) Edit your sip config, add an av_field_template parameter to the login you are using such as
av_field_template="TEST [% accountline.description %] [% accountline.amountoutstanding | format('%.2f') %]"
6) Restart your SIP server
7) Repeat the patron information request
8) Note your custom AV field is being used!

If an item is not checked out when a checkin via SIP2 is attempted,
Koha's SIP server sends back an "ok" of 0, and the AF message "Item
not checked out". I am not entirely sure this is good and correct
behavior by the SIP2 protocol.
In particular, this will cause SIP2 book sorting devices to fail on
all items that are not checked out, causing them all to be put into
the "special handling" been that should be reserved for things like
items checked in at the wrong library and items on hold.
Test Plan:
1) Apply the patch for bug 13159 so you can use the new enhanced
SIP2 command line emulator
2) Use a command similar to the following to check in an item:
sip_cli_emulator.pl -a localhost -su <sip user> -sp <sip password> -l <instituation id> --item <barcode> -m checkin
3) Note the 3rd character is 0, and there is an AF field saying the item is not checked out
4) Apply this patch
5) Restart the SIP server
6) Repeat steps 2-3, note that nothing has changed
7) In the SIP config file, Add the parameter checked_in_ok="1" to the SIP account you are using.
8) Restart the SIP server
9) Repeat steps 2-3, note that this time the 3rd character is 1, and you do not recieve the item not checked out message.

We should add the ability to apply a regular expression to screen
messages for the SIP2 server. This would allow libraries to not only
customize the screen messages the patron sees, but can also allow screen
messages to be translated.
Test Plan:
1) Apply this patch
2) Inspect etc/SIPconfig.xml, note the new screen_msg_regex tags
that can be nested inside a given login tag.
3) Add one or more screen_msg_regex tags to your own SIP config
Recommendation: s/Greetings from Koha./Welcome to your library!/g
4) Restart your SIP2 server
5) Test with a SIP2 machine, or use /misc/sip_cli_emulator.pl
6) Note your new AF fields!

The accounts->login tag in SIPconfig.xml can now accept a new
parameter, "encoding". It will be mostly used to encode to utf8.
For this, simply add the parameter: encoding="utf8"
Signed-off-by: Chris Cormack <chrisc@catalyst.net.nz>
Works as advertised, does nothing if encoding is not set.
Blows up all the machines that can't handled utf8 if it is set :) But
that's not Koha's fault. :)

This patch gives you the option of sending a patrons home branch code
in an AF field for patron status requests. It is controlled at the account
login level, so it can be enable on a per-sip-login basis.
Test Plan:
1) Apply patch
2) Edit SIPconfig.xml, add the parameter 'send_patron_home_library_in_af="1"'
to the login you will be using to test.
3) Start your SIP2 server.
4) Connect to it via telnet ( something like: '9300CNterm1|COterm1|CPCPL|' )
5) Send a patron status request ( like: '2300120121110 82925AOCPL|AA23529000035676|ACterm1|ADletmein' )
6) Examine reponse you should see something like this:
"24 00120121210 085332AEHenry Acevedo|AA23529000035676|BLY|CQN|AFGreetings from Koha. |AFMPL|AO|"
Note the second AF field with the value MPL.

Add a terminator option to SIPConfig.xml, choices for 'terminator' are
'CR' or 'CRLF'. The default continues to be 'CRLF' if 'terminator' is
undefined.

3) Run C4/SIP/t/04patron_status.t
4) Stop SIP server
5) Add terminator="CR" for account login 'term1'
