Bug 28937: Use Flatpickr on circulation and patron pages
This patch replaces the use of jQueryUI's datepicker on circulation and
patron-related pages.
The patch modifies Flatpickr's default configuration (in calendar.inc)
so that it has the following features:
- A Flatpickr input with a "futuredate" class will require that the
selected date be after today.
- The Flatpickr input field will be wrapped in a container to
facilitate better CSS styling.
- Generic handling of paired date fields is enabled using
".flatpickrfrom" and ".flatpickrto" field classes. This mimics the
same feature we have for jQueryUI datepickers using ".datepickerfrom"
and ".datepickerto".
This patch also removes an unused function which was repeated in three
templates: validate1.
To test, apply the patch and rebuild the staff interface CSS
(https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Working_with_SCSS_in_the_OPAC_and_staff_client).
- Go to Circulation and check out to a patron.
- Open the Restrictions tab and click "Add manual restriction."
- In the "Expiration" field, test that the Flatpickr widget works
correctly and limits to dates after today.
- Enable the SpecifyDueDate preference if necessary.
- Test the behavior of the SpecifyDueDate controls: Setting a date,
clearing a date, session persistence.
- Enable the SuspendHoldsIntranet system preference if necessary.
- Check out to a patron with existing holds.
- Open the Holds tab and click the "Suspend" button for one of the
holds.
- In the modal window which appears, check that the Flatpickr
widget works correctly and limits to dates after today.
- At the bottom of the table of holds, test that the "Suspend all
holds" Flatpickr works correctly and limits to dates after
today.
- Perform this same test from the patron details page.
- Enable the BatchCheckouts system preference if necessary.
- Open a patron record and click "Batch check out" in the left-hand
sidebar menu.
- Test that the "Hard due date" Flatpickr works correctly as a date
and time picker.
- Go to Circulation -> Overdues.
- Test that the date due filters in the sidebar work correctly and
are linked, e.g. the "to" field cannot be before the "from" field.
- Perform the same test here: Circulation -> Holds to pull; and
here: Circulation -> Hold ratios.
- Enable the HouseboundModule system preference if necessary.
- Check out to or view details of a patron.
- Click "Housebound" in the sidebar menu.
- Save delivery day and frequency settings for that patron.
- Click "Add a new delivery."
- Test that the "Date" Flatpickr widget works correctly.
- Go to Patrons -> A patron record -> Edit.
- Test that Flatpickr widgets work on the following fields:
- Date of birth
- Registration date & Expiration date (linked).
- Patron restrictions -> Add manual restriction -> Expiration.
- View a bibliographic record and start the process of placing a hold.
- After selecting a patron, test the "Hold starts on" and "Hold
expires on" date fields. The fields should be linked and each
should limit to future dates.
- Confirm that the dates are saved correctly when you submit the
hold.
- Locate a bibliographic record with multiple holds and view the holds.
- In the table of holds, test each date field: Date, expiration, and
suspend-until.
- Test that Flatpickr's static "formatDate" method is working
correctly:
- Locate a bibliographic record's item so that there is text in both
the "Public note" and "Non-public note" field.
- Check that item out to a patron.
- After the page reloads the public and non-public notes should be
shown under the checkout title highlighted in red.
- Check for references to a "validate1" function. There should be none.
