Doug Kingston	88e7faf860	Bug 11078: Add locking to rebuild_zebra This patch adds locking to rebuild_zebra.pl to ensure that simultaneous changes are prevented (as one is likely to overwrite the other). Incremental updates in daemon mode will skipped if the lock is busy and they will be picked up on the next pass. Non-daemon mode invocations will also exit immediately if they cannot get the lock unless the new flag -wait-for-lock is specified, in which case they will wait until the get the lock and then proceed. Supporting changes made to Makefile.PL and templates for the new locking directory (paralleling the other zebra lock directories). We stash the zebra_lockdir in koha-conf.xml so rebuild_zebra.pl can find it. To address earlier QA concerns we: 1. added code to check if flock is available and ignore locking if it's missing (from M. de Rooy) 2. changed default for adhoc invocations to abort if they cannot obtain the lock. Added option -wait-for-lock if the user prefers to wait until the lock is free, and then continue processing. 3. added missing entry to t/db_dependent/zebra_config.pl 4. added a fallback locking directory of /tmp Signed-off-by: Marcel de Rooy <m.de.rooy@rijksmuseum.nl> Doug merged the original patch with the QA changes. Just for the record, noting here that the original patch was tested extensively too by Martin Renvoize. I have added a followup for some exceptional cases.

Kyle M Hall	5eabc672fd	Bug 7804 - Add Koha Plugin System Adds support for custom plugins. At the moment the Plugins feature supports two types of plugins, reports and tools. Plugins are installed by uploading KPZ ( Koha Plugin Zip ) packages. A KPZ file is just a zip file containing the perl files, template files, and any other files neccessary to make the plugin work. Test plan: 1) Apply patch 2) Run updatedatabase.pl 3) Create the directory /var/lib/koha/plugins 4) Add the lines <pluginsdir>/var/lib/koha/plugins</pluginsdir> <enable_plugins>1</enable_plugins>" to your koha-conf.xml file 5) Add the line Alias /plugin/ "/var/lib/koha/plugins/" to your koha-httpd.conf file 6) Restart your webserver 7) Access the plugins system from the "More" pulldown 8) Upload the example plugin file provided here 9) Try it out!
