Currently, the main table of ILL requests will display all ILL
requests in the database, regardless of their status. For libraries
with active ILL this quickly leads to a lot of requests being displayed,
and the main page of the ILL module taking a long time to load. This
patch proposes to fix this by introducing the ILLHiddenRequestStatuses
syspref, which can take a pipe-separated list of ILL statuses that
will be hidden from view in the ILL module. This means that the
only way to find a hidden request will be through a report.
To test:
- Apply the patch and make sure the atomic database update is run
- Make sure you have a few ILL requests, with at least two different
statuses
- Check that all requests are still displayed in the main table of
ILL requests
- Add one of the statuses* you have in your database to the
ILLHiddenRequestStatuses syspref, reload the ILL module frontpage
and verify that requests with the given status are not displayed
- Change the syspref to another status and verify requests with
that status are now hidden
- Change the syspref to hold both statuses, separated by the pipe
symbol (e.g.: A|B). Verify that no requests with the given
statuses are now displayed
- Run the ILL REST API tests, e.g.:
$ sudo koha-shell -c "prove t/db_dependent/api/v1/illrequests.t" kohadev
* = The ILLHiddenRequestStatuses syspref should hold status codes, like
"REQ" and "NEW", not their human readable counterparts.
