Authority display hierarchy had a problem.
Feature porting :
Adding SearchMyLibraryFirst feature to OPAC
It select the user's library for research by default
Abiding by Name Convention.
Using Members wherever it should be used.
Borrower is only used for borrower Categories.
+ GetBorrowersWhoHaveNeverBorrowed
and lists like that.
So this implies quite a change for files.
Sorry about conflicts which will be caused.
directory Interface::CGI should now be dropped.
I noticed that many scripts (reports ones, but also some circ/stats.pl or opac-topissues) still use Date::Manip.
- checkaccount and getborraccountno => GetBorrowerAcctRecord
Many changes in names,
some changes in function signature.
Will be detailed in a mail to kohadevel.
Seems not to break too many things, but i'm probably wrong here.
at least, new features/bugfixes from 2.2.5 are here (tested on some features on my head local copy)
- removing useless directories (koha-html and koha-plucene)
* synch with rel_2_2. Probably the last non manual synch, as rel_2_2 should not be modified deeply.
* code cleaning (cleaning warnings from perl -w) continued
* adding a package Letters.pm, that manages Letters & alerts.
* adding feature : it's now possible to define a "letter" for any subscription created. If a letter is defined, users in OPAC can put an alert on the subscription. When an issue is marked "arrived", all users in the alert will recieve a mail (as defined in the "letter"). This last part (= send the mail) is not yet developped. (Should be done this week)
* adding feature : it's now possible to "put to an alert" in OPAC, for any serial subscription. The alert is stored in a new table, called alert. An alert can be put only if the librarian has activated them in subscription (and they activate it just by choosing a "letter" to sent to borrowers on new issues)
* adding feature : librarian can see in borrower detail which alerts they have put, and a user can see in opac-detail which alert they have put too.
Note that the system should be generic enough to manage any type of alert.
I plan to extend it soon to virtual shelves : a borrower will be able to put an alert on a virtual shelf, to be warned when something is changed in the virtual shelf (mail being sent once a day by cron, or manually by the shelf owner. Anyway, a mail won't be sent on every change, users would be spammed by Koha ;-) )
A few minor bugfixes too in perl code.
NOTE TO ENGLISH "TEMPLATORS" : you should look at this commits, as some ideas are really nice. Thanks to Carole, Wesford School, new Koha user in France :-)
Create output_html_with_http_headers function to contain the "print $query
->header(-type => guesstype...),..." call. This is in preparation for
non-HTML output (e.g., text/xml) and charset conversion before output in
the future.
Created C4/Interface/CGI/Template.pm to hold convenience functions specific
to the CGI interface using HTML::Template
Modified moremembers.pl to make the "sex" field localizable for languages
where M and F doesn't make sense
