The issue: If you try to check in an item with a non existent barcode,
the application will exploded with a software error:
"Can't bless non-reference at .../ItemType.pm Line 64".
It's caused by:
commit 7431f8cfe2
Bug 11944: Fix encoding issue in C4::ItemType
and the following change:
@@ -105,9 +104,6 @@ sub get {
my $data = $dbh->selectrow_hashref(
"SELECT * FROM itemtypes WHERE itemtype = ?", undef, $itemtype
);
- if ( $data->{description} ) {
- $data->{description} = Encode::encode('UTF-8', $data->{description});
- }
because of the following:
my $s;
$s->{foo} = "bar" if $s->{foo};
use Data::Dumper;warn Dumper $s;
=> {} # not undef
So later,
bless $opts => $class;
will fail because $opts is undef and was not (i.e. {}) before.
More explicit test plan:
1) Log in to staff client
2) Circulation -> Check in
3) Type a non-existent barcode into 'Enter item barcode:' textbox
4) Click 'Submit'
-- Should receive nasty error.
5) apply patch
6) repeat steps 2-4
-- Should be told 'No item with barcode: {what you typed}'
7) prove -v t/ItemType.t
-- All tests should run successfully.
7) run koha qa test tools
Note: Having tried to create and use an itemtype '0', this only
demonstrates a lack of validation on the itemtype creation
screen. Unable to use it without tweaking back end.
That is beyond the scope of this bug.
Note for QA: C4::ItemType->get is only uses in circ/return.pl. So even
if the behavior is changed, it should not introduce any regression
somewhere else.

Works as expected. Fixes the problem and no regressions found.
It even has regression tests :-D

This patch adds a new column to item types. Text in this column is
displayed as a warning when an item of the given type is checked in.
The type of message can also be chosen, affecting how the message is
displayed.
Use case: Items that are on inter-library loan can have a separate
item type, and when items of this type are checked in a message
saying something like "ILL! Remember to return it to the owning
library!" can be displayed.
To test:
- Apply the patch
- Go to Home > Administration > Item types administration
- Check that there is a new column, called "Check in message"
- Edit an item type and add a check in message
- Check that the check in message you added is displayed in the table
- Check in an item with an item type that has a check in message
- Check that the message is displayed
- Repeat the steps above, but select "Alert" instead of the default
"Message" as the "Check in message type". Check that the message
is displayed in a yellow alert box, not a blue message box.
- Check in an item with an item type that does *not* have a check
in message, and make sure no false messages are displayed
- Create a new item type from scratch and check that it works
the way it is supposed to
- Run the tests in t/ItemType.t, which are updated by this patch
This patch also removes backticks around column names in the
itemtypes table in installer/data/mysql/kohastructure.sql
UPDATE 2013-07-22
- Rebased on current master (no changes)
- Added "AFTER summary" to the SQL statement in updatedatabase.pl
- Added another placeholder on line 170 of admin/itemtypes.pl
Thanks Katrin!
UPDATE 2013-07-29
- Make this message independent of all other messages - thanks Owen!
- Make it possible to choose the type of message ("alert" or
"message")

Fixed some tabs to make the QA script happy.
All old and new tests pass.

The second test in ItemType.t tests that an empty table
returns no rows however as Mock::DBD has no resultset
it fails with an error in DBI It requires that an
empty resultset is defined in Mock::DBD first
This patch adds that mocked empty table
