tipaul df6c6bcada Letters / alert system, continuing...
* 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 ;-) )

C4::Letters - Give functions for Letters management
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use C4::Letters;
=head1 DESCRIPTION
"Letters" is the tool used in Koha to manage informations sent to the patrons and/or the library. This include some cron jobs like
late issues, as well as other tasks like sending a mail to users that have subscribed to a "serial issue alert" (= being warned every time a new issue has arrived at the library)
Letters are managed through "alerts" sent by Koha on some events. All "alert" related functions are in this module too.

=head2 GetLetterList
parameter : $module : the name of the module
This sub returns an array of hashes with all letters from a given module
Each hash entry contains :
- module : the module name
- code : the code of the letter, char(20)
- name : the complete name of the letter, char(200)
- title : the title that will be used as "subject" in mails, char(200)
- content : the content of the letter. Each field to be replaced by a value at runtime is enclosed in << and >>. The fields usually have the same name as in the DB

my ($module) = @_;
my $dbh = C4::Context->dbh;
my $sth = $dbh->prepare("select * from letter where module=?");

}
=head2 addalert
parameters :
- $borrowernumber : the number of the borrower subscribing to the alert
- $type : the type of alert.
- externalid : the primary key of the object to put alert on. For issues, the alert is made on subscriptionid.
create an alert and return the alertid (primary key)
=cut

# get the alert number newly created and return it
my $alertid = $dbh->{'mysql_insertid'};
return $alertid;
}
=head2 delalert
parameters :
- alertid : the alert id
deletes the alert
=cut

# warn "ALERTID : $alertid";
my $dbh = C4::Context->dbh;
my $sth = $dbh->prepare("delete from alert where alertid=?");

=head2 getalert
parameters :
- $borrowernumber : the number of the borrower subscribing to the alert
- $type : the type of alert.
- externalid : the primary key of the object to put alert on. For issues, the alert is made on subscriptionid.
all parameters NON mandatory. If a parameter is omitted, the query is done without the corresponding parameter. For example, without $externalid, returns all alerts for a borrower on a topic.

}
=head2 findrelatedto
parameters :
- $type : the type of alert
- $externalid : the id of the "object" to query
In the table alert, a "id" is stored in the externalid field. This "id" is related to another table, depending on the type of the alert.
When type=issue, the id is related to a subscriptionid and this sub returns the name of the biblio.
When type=virtual, the id is related to a virtual shelf and this sub returns the name of the sub
=cut

my ($type,$externalid) = @_;
my $dbh=C4::Context->dbh;
my $sth;
if ($type eq "issue") {
$sth=$dbh->prepare("select title as result from subscription left join biblio on subscription.biblionumber=biblio.biblionumber where subscriptionid=?");
}
$sth->execute($externalid);
my ($result) = $sth->fetchrow;
