We handle internationalization of the jQuery datepicker by adding
language configuration strings to calendar.inc which can be processed by
the translation script. This patch adds a similar configuration file for
the timepicker.
This patch also upgrades the timepicker plugin to the latest version,
minified, and places it outside the prog template directory for global
use. The path in templates has been updated accordingly.
CSS has been added to more completely hide the controls for seconds,
milliseconds, and microseconds.
To test, apply the patch and clear your cache so that the browser
loads the new version of the jQuery plugin. Confirm that date and time
selection still function correctly on the circulation page, the patron
detail page, and the offline circulation page (circ/offline.pl).
Test at least one datepicker instance which does not use the
timepicker.
Run translate update on a po file and confirm that the timepicker
strings are now present.

At some point in rebasing I managed to remove the part of the code
that saved fine payments. This patch re-adds that feature. This patch
also corrects the label on the check out tab to not mention partial
names for checkouts when offline, and partial name searches are not
supported in offline circ.

This patch improves the alert messages to be slightly better English
and warns the librarian if a patron's card has expired. Like all alerts,
this is non-fatal since in the case of network failure there is no
particular reason to expect that the offline database is current.
To test this particular patch you can try checking something out to an
expired patron, otherwise test plan remains the same as above.

Logging out/setting the library does not work while using offline
mode, so it makes no sense to present those options to the user.
Much better is some sort of explanatory message informing them that
those two links don't work.

Fix the following two issues:
1) After paying a fine when offline the fine amount becomes NaN.
2) For previous checkouts for a patron, the title and barcode
fields have the wrong infomation in them (i.e. they have been swapped)

When uploading transactions, we were not checking that authentication
had succeeded before deleting the transactions from the local database.
That was bad. With this patch, we check. That is good.

Address the following issues:
1/ Address minor qa issues with the templates:
FAIL koha-tmpl/intranet-tmpl/prog/en/modules/circ/offline-mf.tt
FAIL forbidden patterns
forbidden pattern: intranet-tmpl should certainly
replaced with [% interface %] (line 24)
[etc.]
OK tt_valid
OK valid_template
FAIL koha-tmpl/intranet-tmpl/prog/en/modules/circ/offline.tt
FAIL forbidden patterns
forbidden pattern: intranet-tmpl should certainly
replaced with [% interface %] (line 509)
[etc.]
FAIL tt_valid
lines 5, 5
2/ Run perltidy on new scripts
3/ download.pl returns data.finished = 1 if number of returned
data < 5000 (avoids 1 ajax call)
4/ Replace qq{} around sql queries with q{}
Also, a race condition existed that resulted in pending transactions
only getting deleted from the local database in certain circumstances
(fast connections under Chrome, mostly). This patch fixes that so that
successfully-uploaded transactions are always deleted.
This patch also addresses Jonathan's suggestion:
3/ add a message on check in (currently the input becomes empty but the
user is not informed).
... and Magnus's suggestion about moving the Synchronize link to the
right on the homepage.
Also, this addresses the further issues Jonathan noted:
- The tab of checkouts always shows "*0* Checkouts"
- If I am not well-educated, I click on the "Check out" link on the
offline home page, I enter a barcode, click on "Check out" and I get a
js error (without user message): "TypeError: curpatron is undefined"
(with chromium I get: Numeric transaction modes are deprecated in
IDBDatabase.transaction. Use "readonly" or "readwrite").
- There is a "border-right" css rule on the h5.patron-title. It is
display when there is no patron selected) [really minor!].
- tables are displayed even if there is no data
- The "Clear screen" link (X) points to an old script:
circ/offline-circulation.pl
- There is a warning when clicking on the "Synchronize" link when the
user is offline, but not for the "Pending offline circulation actions"
link.
- Still exists:
> The "Checked in item." message text never disappear (even if I go on the
> offline home page (circ/offline.pl#offline-home)).
Finally, this patch adds a link to the Pending offline operations page
on the synchronize page for easier navigation.

This patch adds an HTML5-based offline mode to Koha's existing
circulation module, allowing librarians to check out items using a
basically familiar interface. The feature will be implemented using
the Application Cache and IndexedDB features of the HTML5 specification,
both of which are fully supported on Firefox 10+ and Chrome 23+, with
limited support going back to Firefox 4 and Chrome 11. The basic
workflow enabled by this patch is as follows:
Part 1: While connected to the Internet
1. Enable offline functionality by turning on the
"AllowOfflineCirculation" system preference.
2. Sync the offline circulation database on the computer that will be
used for offline circulation by following the "Offline circulation
interface" link on the Circulation home page, choosing "Synchronize (must be online)",
and clicking the "Download records" button. This process may take a while.
3. Bookmark /cgi-bin/koha/circ/offline.pl (the page you are currently
on) for easy access when offline.
Part 2: While disconnected from the Internet
4. Navigate to /cgi-bin/koha/circ/offline.pl using the bookmark you
created while online.
5. Start checking books in by scanning the barcode of an item that has
been returned into the box in the "Check in" tab.
6. Scan the barcodes of any additional items that have been returned.
7. Start checking out books to a patron by scanning the patron's barcode
in the box in the "Check out" tab.
8. Set a due date (the "Remember for session" box will be checked by
default, since circulation rules are not computed during offline
transactions and therefore a due date must be specified by the
librarian).
9. Scan an item barcode (if you did not set a due date, it will prompt
you) to check the item out to the patron.
10. If a patron has a fine you can see the total amount (current to when
the offline module was synced), and record a payment. Unlike when in
online mode, there will be no breakdown of what item(s) fines are
for, and you will only be able to record the payment amount and not
associate it with a particular item.
Part 3: While connected to the Internet
11. Click the "Synchronize" link and choose "Upload transactions" to
upload the transactions recorded during the offline circulation
session.
12. Navigate to /cgi-bin/koha/offline_circ/list.pl (there will be a
link from the Offline circulation page) and review the
transactions, as described in the documentation for the Firefox
Offline circulation plugin:
http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Offline_circulation_firefox_plugin
