Sorry, I should read better.

Hi Chris C./Chris H. - can you please add a description of what this is supposed to do and how to test it? Thx!
Comment 7 Chris Hall 2011-11-21 19:54:42 UTC
Hey Katrin

This allows you to visit the following urls:
opac:
 http://localhost/cgi-bin/koha/svc/report?id=1
intranet:
 http://localhost:8080/cgi-bin/koha/svc/report?id=1

(replace localhost and localhost:8080 with the appropriate URLs)

To fetch JSON output form previously created reports (in the above cases you are viewing report 1).
The report is only visible via the opac interface if it has been explicitly set to public (you can do this when creating a report or from the use saved report -> edit page).
Comment 8 Katrin Fischer 2011-11-28 05:24:48 UTC
I was looking at the patch - I think it's missing the update to kohastructure. sql to reflect the changes made by the updatedatabase?

Comment 11 Chris Hall 2011-12-08 21:18:27 UTC
Hey Katrin

This patch is dependent on 7248 being applied first.

On kc/master I am able to apply the 7248 patch and then this one without any errors, does this work for you?

Thanks,
~Chris

QA question: if i'm understanding correctly, the cache duration is something meaningfull only if you have memcache set. I haven't tested the patch, but does the field disappear from the screen cache is OFF ?
Comment 19 Paul Poulain 2012-02-10 18:20:19 UTC
Seems this patch does not apply anymore (and the message look unusual to me)

When you have resolved this problem run "git am --resolved".
If you would prefer to skip this patch, instead run "git am --skip".
To restore the original branch and stop patching run "git am --abort".
Comment 20 Paul Poulain 2012-02-10 18:23:07 UTC
my wrong: this patch must be applied AFTER 7248, back to signed off & going to QA 7248
Comment 21 Paul Poulain 2012-02-21 12:47:33 UTC
This patch won't apply anymore because the bug 7248 won't be applied because bug 6193 has been applied after discussion on how to handle caching in Koha: we do that at apache configuration level.

So, either update this patch to use
eval {
    if (C4::Context->ismemcached) {
        require Memoize::Memcached;
        import Memoize::Memcached qw(memoize_memcached);

        memoize_memcached('getTranslatedLanguages', memcached => C4::Context->memcached);
    }
};

in your script, or rewrite patch of bug 7248 to be able to have this one valid again.

Patch includes database update adding 2 new fields to the saved_sql table.

1) Checked that adding/deleting/editing of sql reports still works and new
fields are correctly saved to the database.

2) The saved reports page now lists the new fields correctly.

3) Checking URLs with JSON output
- if report is not public http://localhost/cgi-bin/koha/svc/report?id=2 fails,
but http://localhost:8080/cgi-bin/koha/svc/report?id=2 works
- if report is public, both links work

4) Checking results are cached
Created a report listing my borrowers, setting caching to 60 seconds and
added new borrowers before doing following tests.
- URL doesn't show new borrower immediately - correct
- Turning off the usecache system preference updates data - correct
- Restarting memcached updates data '/etc/init.d/memcached restart' - correct
- Waiting until cache time runs out updates data - correct

Retested the feature and renewing my sign-off.

There are some things that should be noted:
- currently there is a hardcoded limit of 10 results for the reports webservice
- reports with runtime parameters are currently not supported

[SIGNED-OFF] Bug 7249: Syspref to control number of rows in web service results

The original patches for bug 7249 had a hardcoded limit of ten rows in the
results returned by the web service. This patch adds a SvcMaxReportRows syspref
which allows the librarian to choose how many rows should be returned by the
web service.

All seems good.
Paul, could you remove backquote (kohastructure.sql) before pushing please ?

Marked as Passed QA
