Here we go, next step then.
As we did not fix the performance issue when autofiltering
the variables (see bug 20975), the only solution we have is to add the
filters explicitely.
This patch has been autogenerated (using add_html_filters.pl, see next
pathces) and add the html filter to all the variables displayed in the
template.
Exceptions are made (using the new 'raw' TT filter) to the variable we
already listed in the previous versions of this patch.
To test:
- Use t/db_dependent/Koha/Patrons.t to populate your DB with autogenerated
data which contain <script> tags
- Remove them from borrower_debarments.comments (there are allowed here)
update borrower_debarments set comment="html tags possible here";
- From the interface hit page and try to catch alert box.
If you find one it means you find a possible XSS.
To know where it comes from:
* note the exact URL where you found it
* note the alert box content
* Dump your DB and search for the string in the dump to identify its
location (for instance table.field)
Next:
* Ideally we would like to use the raw filter when it is not necessary
to HTML escape the variables (in big loop for instance)
* Provide a QA script to catch missing filters (we want html, uri, url
or raw, certainly others that I am forgetting now)
* Replace the html filters with uri when needed (!)

Code and variables to deal with the update child feature are not
centralized but copied/pasted in several scripts. Which leads to issues
obsviously (bug 20805 for instance).
Moreover the strings used by the templates are also in several template
files (or .inc)
To deal with that this patch introduces the idea to create 1 .inc file
per .js file
Here we have members-menu.inc for members-menu.js
Test plan:
- Remove all your adult categories (categories.category_type='A')
- Create a patron with a child category
- Try to update to adult category
=> The entry does no longer appears! (This is a change in the behaviour)
- Create one adult category
- Update to adult category
=> There is a JS confirmation message, if you accept the patron will
be updated to the adult category
- Create (at least) another adult category
- Create another child
- Update to adult category
=> No more confirmation message but a popup to select the adult category
- Pick one
=> The patron has been updated to the adult category

This patch fixes a problem with several patron-related pages, where the
"Update child to adult patron" menu item doesn't work. With some pages,
the right category information wasn't being passed from the script to
the template. With some, the right JavaScript variable weren't being
passed from the template to the included JavaScript file.
To test, apply the patch locate some patrons with "child" type patron
categories. With each patron, go to one of the following pages and test
the "update child" process in the toolbar's "More" menu.
- Circulation ->
- Batch check out
- Notices
- Statistics
- Files
- Housebound
- Delete (test from the deletion confirmation screen).
All test should be performed on a system with multiple adult patron
categories configured AND on a system with only a single adult patron
category.

Having to write [% KOHA_VERSION %] for each url is bad because:
- It's easily forgettable when adding new <script> or <link>
- It prevents grep'ing for the full filename
- It violates the DRY principle
- If at some point we want to change the "force js and css reload"
mechanism, it will be tedious
This patch:
- adds a Template::Toolkit plugin that generates <script> and
<link> tags for JS and CSS files, and inserts automatically the Koha
version in the filename
- use the new plugin to remove all occurences of [% KOHA_VERSION %]
- remove the code that was adding KOHA_VERSION as a template variable
Test plan:
1. Apply patch
2. Go to several different pages in Koha (opac and intranet) while
checking your browser's dev tools (there should be no 404 for JS and
CSS files, and the Koha version should appear in filenames) and the
server logs (there should be no "File not found")
3. `git grep KOHA_VERSION` should return nothing
4. prove t/db_dependent/Koha/Template/Plugin/Asset.t

Here we are, patronflags is used in a couple of places where (almost) all flags
were really useful: C4::SIP::ILS::Patron->new and circulation.pl
This patch only deal with the circulation code as I am not convident
enough with SIP code.
The change does not seems trivial because of the complexity of the
existing code, but the logic is the same. We send a variable to the
template depending on the situation of the patron.
I guess only code eyes ball could catch issue in this patch quickly.
Maybe we need to find a good place in a Koha module to move this code
and provide code coverage (especially when C4::SIP::ILS::Patron will
reuse it).

This is the fourth and last patch set to remove C4::Branch.
The real purpose of this patch is to standardise and refactor some code
which is related to the libraries selection/display.
Its unconfessed purpose is to remove the C4::Branch package.
Before this patch set, only 6 subroutines still existed in the C4::Branch
package:
- GetBranchName
- GetBranchesLoop
- mybranch
- onlymine
- GetBranches
- GetBranch
GetBranchName basically returns the branchname for a given branchcode.
The branchname is only used for a display purpose and we don't need to
retrieve it in package or pl scripts (unless for a few exceptions).
We have a `Branches` template plugin with a `GetName` method which does
exactly this job.
To achieve this removal, we will use this template plugin and delete the
GetBranchName from pl and pm files.
The `Branches.all()` will now select the library of the logged in user
if no `selected` parameter has been passed.
This new behavior could cause regressions, for instance there are some
places where we do not want an option preselected (batch item
modification for instance), keep that in mind when testing.
GetBranchesLoop took 3 parameters: $branch and $onlymine.
The first one was used to set a "selected" flag, for a display purpose:
select an option in the libraries dropdown lists.
The second one was useless: If not passed or set to 0, the
`C4::Branch::onlymine` subroutine was called.
This onlymine flag was use to know if the logged in user was able to see
other libraries infos.
A patron can see the infos from other libraries if IndependentBranches
is not set OR if he has the superlibrarian permission.
Prior to this patch set, the "onlymine test" was done on different
places (neworderempty.pl, additem.pl, holidays.pl, etc.), including the
Branches TT plugin. In this patch set, this test is only done on one
place (C4::Context::only_my_library, code moved from
C4::Branch::onlymine).
To accomplish the same job as this subroutine, we just need to call the
`Branches.all()` method from the `Branches` TT plugin. It already
accepts a `selected` parameter to set a flag on the option to select.
To avoid the repetitive
[% IF selected %]<option selected="selected">[% ELSE %]<option>[% END %]
pattern, a new `html_helpers` TT include file has been created, it
defines an `options_for_libraries` block, which takes a `selected`
parameter. We could imagine to use this include file for other
selects.
The 'mybranch` and `onlymine` subroutines of the C4::Branch package have
been moved to C4::Context. onlymine has been renamed with
only_my_library. There are only 4 occurrences of it, against 11 before
this patch set.
There 2 subroutines are Context-centric and it makes sense to put them
in `C4::Context` (at least it's the least worst place!)
GetBranches is the tricky part of this patch set: It retrieves all the
libraries, independently of the value of IndependentBranches.
To keep the same way as the existing calls of `Branches.all()`, I have
added a `unfiltered` parameter. If set, the `Branches.all()` will call
a usual Koha::Libraries->search method, otherwise
Koha::Libraries->search_filtered will be called. This new method will
check if the logged in user is allowed to see other libraries or only
its library.
Note that this `GetBranches` subroutine also created a `category` key:
it allowed to get the list of groups (of libraries) where this library
existed. Thanks to a previous patch set (bug 15295), this value was
not used anymore (I may have missed something!).
Note that the only use of `GetBranch` was buggy (see bug 15746).
Test plan (for the whole patch set):
The best way to test this whole patch set is to test with 2 instances: 1
with the patch set applied, 1 using master, to be sure there is no
regression.
It would be good to test the same with `IndependentBranches` and the
without `IndependentBranches`.
No difference should be found.
The tester must focus on the library dropdowns on as many forms as
possible.
You will notice changes in the order of the options: the libraries will
now be ordered by branchname (instead of branchcode in some places).
A special attention will be given to the following page:
- acqui/neworderempty.pl
- catalogue/search.pl
- members/members-home.pl (header?)
- opac/opac-topissues.pl
- tools/holidays.pl
- admin/branch_transfer_limits.pl
- admin/item_circulation_alerts.pl
- rotating_collections/transferCollection.pl
- suggestion/suggestion.pl
- tools/export.pl
Notes for QA:
- There are 2 FIXMEs in the patch set, I have kept the existing behavior,
but I am not sure it's the good one. Feel free to open a bug report and
I will fill a patch if you think it's not correct. Otherwise, remove the
FIXME lines in a follow-up patch.
- The whole patch set is huge and makes a lot of changes.
But it finally will tremendously reduce the number of lines:

The staff client CSS is not language-specific, so it can be moved out of
the en/ directory and thus not be duplicated for every translation.
In order to be able to have a generic path to the YUI CSS files, the YUI
directory is moved by this patch to the staff client's lib/ directory.
To test, apply the patch and visit various pages in the staff client.
Look in particular at pages which include more than the standard CSS.
For example:
- The staff client login page.
- The staff client home page.
- Patron -> Set permissions.
- The advanced cataloging editor.
- Acquisitions -> Vendor -> Basket groups.
- Tools -> News -> Edit news.

The batch checkout template has some markup and JavaScript problems
which need to be resolved, including:
- Mismatched <h3></h1>
- JavaScript includes which are not used
- Incorrect DataTables configuration
- Incorrect class on warning dialogs
- Incorrect terminology: Use "checkout" instead of "issue"
This patch also changes the markup and styling of batch checkout errors,
using Font Awesome icons to retain highlighting of warnings and errors
while (I hope) improving readability.
To test, apply the patch and go to batch checkout for a patron for whom
batch checkouts are enabled.
- Check out a batch of barcodes. Include items which will trigger errors
or warnings. For example: Invalid barcodes, lost items, items which
are already checked out, items which are on hold for another patron,
items which are damaged.
- When the table of items is displayed so that you can confirm the
checkout, make sure the table is sortable.
- Think about whether the style changes on warnings and errors are an
improvement.
- Try to initiate a batch checkout to a patron who is restricted. You
should see an "alert" style dialog instead of a "message" style one.
- Validate the HTML and confirm that there are no errors raised by this
template's markup.

This patch is the main patch.
It adds:
- the new template circ/circulation_batch_checkouts.tt
- the change into circ/circulation.pl
=== Why this feature is useful for some libraries? ===
Currently Koha does not allow to checkout several items at once to a
user. This can cause a waste of time when a user want to checkout more
than 10 items.
This development has been asked to have statistics on in-house use.
Every night, a librarian will enter a barcode list (from a file or a
scanner : the librarian scans the barcode of the documents that users
let on the tables). Barcodes will be added to a statistics patron in
order to count the number of items consulted.
The development has been expanded to cover another need: some special
libraries (BDP for "Bibliotheque departementale de pret": "Loan Regional
Library").
These libraries loan items to smaller libraries (municipal). The number
of items could be very important and the current way offered by Koha is
not adequate.

2/ Create a statistical patron (e.g. category code STATS).
3/ Update the batch_checkouts pref with the category code (STATS).
4/ Go on the member page and verify the new "Batch check out" tab
appears (and only for this user).
5/ Check some items out on the new page using the textarea or a file.
6/ Verify the table contains the item's information and the
"Information" column contains "Local use recorded".

7/ Create a non statistical patron and update the pref.
8/ Check some items out on the new page using the textarea or a file.
9/ Verify the information in the table is consistent.
10/ Verify item without confirmation needed or impossible alert is
checked out.
11/ If the logged in user has the "force_checkout" permission, all
checkouts with a "confirmation needed" message can be done.
If the logged in user does not have it, there is no way to force the
checkout.
