This is very nice!
There are two things i discovered:

1. Instructor Search does not work

2. Not possible to add more than one course :)

Comment 7 wajasu 2012-08-13 21:28:17 UTC
I tried this patch with a standard install and got hung up on:

1) I think you are missing some of the code on the staff interface side of things. The link on the main menu pointed to cgi-bin/koha/course_reserves/course.pl  which did not exist.  It might have worked for you and Marijana in the past in a dev install, but you need some more install code for those parts. It looked ok on the opac side, so reference that.

2) Then i went to run updatedatabase and got
 Use of bare << to mean <<"" is deprecated at ./installer/data/mysql/updatedatabase.pl line 5318. I see <<<<<<< HEAD in updatedatabase.pl 
Folks said there must be a conflict inthe merge, but I didn't get prompted when I did a git am -i -u -3 <yourpatch>

So if I can get the tables created, it can be tested.

Comment 9 Kyle M Hall (khall) 2012-08-14 14:53:13 UTC
Please try this new edition of the patch. It is a rebase from my original patch. I think the previous version got a bit messed up from rebase after rebase.

Comment 10 wajasu 2012-08-17 01:01:24 UTC
I tried again with.  Bug 8215 - Add Course Reserves 
I'm doing  a standard install.

The updatedatabse.pl fails:

Missing right curly or square bracket at ./installer/data/mysql/updatedatabase.pl line 5784, at end of line
syntax error at ./installer/data/mysql/updatedatabase.pl line 5784, at EOF
Execution of ./installer/data/mysql/updatedatabase.pl aborted due to compilation errors.

It might be a pain, but try a std install db with the version set early enough...

Also,

I think you need to add the course_reserves directory to the Makefile.PL
target_map.  I added one right after the circ line, and all that code got copied to the designated INTRANET_CGI_DIR.

  './circ'                      => 'INTRANET_CGI_DIR',
  './course_reserves',          => 'INTRANET_CGI_DIR',

I was able to access the Course Reserves from the staff interface.

But, without the tables...

(In reply to comment #10)

Thanks for the feedback! I've submitted a followup patch that should resolve your problems. I was able to successfully run the db updater from the command line, and I've also added the directory to the Makefile. Thanks again.

OK. Now we are moving somewhere.  I applied these with no problem.
 Bug 8215 - Add Course Reserves
 Bug 8215 - Add Course Reserves - Followup - Fix DB Updater & Makefile
The updatedatabase.pl ran fine.

The things with a plus at the left I did.  I've attached snapshots of various
places in the workflow. (nice workflow)
Testing Scenario:
+ 1) Create new authorised value categories DEPARTMENT and TERM
  2) Create a new course, add instructors to that course.
+ create a new course (but without instructor)
- no instructor (added a patron as a teacher. Implemented yet?)
Note: Hitting Enter in instructor field Saves :( let me press the button.
  3) Reserve items for that course, verify item attributes have changed.
+ reserved items ( queried db and saw rows )
? tell me where to look to verify item attributes. I attached some images.
  I see a Course Reserves column with the Course Name in the Holdings tab.
  Is that what you mean?  Or some biblio MARC tag field OR other reserve table. 
  4) Disable course, verify item attributes have reverted.
- I still see the Course Reserves in Item's catalog detail page when course Inactive
  5) Enable course again, verify item attributes again.
  6) Delete course, verify item attributes again.
+ When delted the Course Reserves column if gone. As is the row in the DB.
  7) Create two new courses, add the same item(s) to both courses.
Note: I can create multiple courses with same name, etc. Whats the primary key
or natural key of this table going to be?
  8) Disable one course, verify item attributes have not reverted.
  9) Disable both courses, verify item attributes have reverted.
 10) Enable one course, verify item attributes are again set to the
     new values.
 11) Edit reserve item attributes, verify.
 12) Disable all courses, edit reserve item attributes, verify
     the item itself still has its original attributes, verify
     the reserve item attributes have been updated.
 13) Verify the ability to remove instructors from a course.
 14) Verify new permissions, top level coursereserves, with
     subpermissions add_reserves and delete_reserves.

I did see all fields being saved in these tables:
course_items
course_reserves
courses

In step #4, I think you need to check for each item's course being enabled=true to show the course name(s), though at the top of
koha-tmpl/intranet-tmpl/prog/en/modules/catalogue/detail.tt
you have the right idea to show the "Course Reserves" column if any one item is reserved.

The OPAC seemed fine to browse the course and its reserves.
 
So we are moving in the right direction, and with a little more clarity on what verifying item attributes means, after your next patch. With instructors, things may be in good standing.

I think one we get this signed off, other smaller enhancements/bugs can be addressed separately.

Teachers *are* patrons, so what you did is correct.

I'll see what I can do about that.

I just meant the change in item type and collection code. You can check those from the standard record details page.

I'll have to check on that.

This duplicates functionality which is already in staff-global.js (function checkEnter(), line 77). I like that your implementation uses a class, though. Could there be a way to combine these scripts?

If not, at the very least this script should be added to staff-global.js instead of included in doc-head-close.inc since it doesn't require template processing.

Comment 31 wajasu 2012-09-01 16:51:46 UTC
did a fresh standard install.

- can't add instructors (tried placing barcode number, and borrowoer id in both add and edit course forms).  I'm suggesting you make this a button with popup form allowing selection from the list of "teachers".  Maybe you can leverage patron search. (is that a template yet?)
(if you clear you dev database course tables, maybe this would show up. or am i missing something?)
 
- the "Course Reserves" column in the OPAC does show at the end of the holdings tab row (Nice!).   But, not in the staff client holdings.  For staff holdings, it might need to be near the column showing status (Not for Loan), so you can see if its already checked out and highlight in red if its a course reserve and "On Loan" conflict.  If its course reserved, should we disallow loaning it?
Note: If the course is made inactive, it should allow it to be for loan. (in item table)

- Are you integrating with the "holdings" subsystem?  If an item is "course reserved" what does that mean?  Is the On Loan flag set in the biblo item? etc

- the "Course reserves" column inthe OPAC, shows even when the course is InActive.  Your logic to decide to show the column should check the course active flag as well.

- mod_course.pl  has template_name  => "about.tmpl"    (is this what you want?)

- when adding an item for "course resserve", you have "LEAVE UNCHANGED" and show "Unchanged" in the course_details page, for "Item Type", "Collection", "Location", "Library".  Can you add the current data underneath the  italicized "Unchanged" for easier usability.  You already have the code t show it.

- I checked out an item that was a "course reserve"  is that allowed?  Should a staff get a popup warning it is a course reserve at checkout time?  Also, in OPAC item view I see the status as checked out, when I click on the "cousre reserve item link" I get the course-details which show the item is available, so maybe you need to supply the model with those fields in that item-status.inc.

Note; Hopefully in the future, each column would have its own tt template, and one would compose a row (for holdings, etc).  The logic to determine sophisticated "Availability" might be moved to the service/manager  (ie. ItemManager.GetStatus.GetAvailabilityDescription or such)

This was an ajax based search, but it seems to have broken at some point. I think I will replace it with a more traditional popup search box.

I'll have to add that.

That is actually something you can choose by defining the 'standard' item type an item has, and the new item type it has while on reserve!

When an item is on "course reserve" it means that the the item how has the new holding branch, category code,

The course reserves column should only appear when one or more items on the record have course reserves. I'll have to check on this.

> - mod_course.pl  has template_name  => "about.tmpl"    (is this what you
> want?)

Yes, it doesn't use a template, but it needs to call get_template in order to check permissions. It seems to be standard practice to use about.tmpl in these cases.

I removed it for readability, but I can re-add it.

> - I checked out an item that was a "course reserve"  is that allowed? 
> Should a staff get a popup warning it is a course reserve at checkout time?

It is allowed if you've defined the item type to allow it. The system is designed for flexibility. Putting an item on course reserve does not in itself change the behavior of an item. The behavior as altered by setting new item types, holding branches, etc.

Just an fyi, I was able to get the instructor search working again. Between my writing it, and your testing it, the YUI ajax search was replaced with a jQuery based one. It works just like the "checkout" borrower search. It appears that you need to add at least three letters of the persons first or last name before you will see the results.
Comment 35 wajasu 2012-09-06 19:55:53 UTC
This is working now!

Everything seems to work now!!!
CRUD - courses, adding instructors(teachers), to courses, 
adding reserves to sources, fields, and menus hiding when appropriate.

Except: 
Permissions related:
- if one wanted to delegate ADD/DEL reserves permissions without also the manage(ADE/EDIT?DEL) courses permission, that can't be done.  Without manage courses, course_reserves is not an accessible page, so one can't get to the links to add/del  reserves.
- Also, while i had permissions to delete reserves, I copied the url of the remove link to the clipboard.  then i removed the staff permssion allowing delete reserves.  i logged in as staff and saw only the edit link (no remove), BUT I pasted the remove action url from my clipboard and the delete worked. So a check needs to be in the script/controller/security layer to see what is an accepted action.  The same probably goes for courses.

Ideas to consider - take em or leave em.
- I can add multiple courses all with the SAME fields.  Maybe a check to dissalow duplicates for (name, term, dept, course_number, section).
- Maybe the TERM and DEPARTMENT could be added to the optional data that folks choose to load. The future testers would be helped.
- I don't know the repercussion of having no library set. (NULL in columns?),
You might want a check and popup to prevent adding rows unless a library is set.
- I know after this is signed off, you will get other enhancements.  A course_schedule ( Days/Hours) and course_location ( North Campus/Bldg A/Edgars Hall/Room 202)   is something the "students" could use. Lots more work for future effort.


Otherwise:
Greate work!!!  A lot to test.

This should be fixed in this new patch.

Also fixed in the new patch.

We could definitely do this, but the values for TERM and DEPARTMENT are so library-specific that any data we add would certainly not be usable out of the box. I think it is just as good if not better to just document them as part of the setup process in the manual.

There are no repercussions for not having a library set. None of the code for this feature uses the logged in user's set branch for anything, so no worries there!
Comment 38 wajasu 2012-09-08 19:26:44 UTC
Everything worked, permissions etc.

Except one behavior:
-When I've added the permissions to add courses to a new staff patron, the autosearch javascript for adding an instructor doesn't work.  It works for the koha sysadmin, but my staff user only had catalog and manage courses set for permissions.

If you figure out why that call doesn't get through security or such, then I think things will be signed off.

Comment 39 Kyle M Hall (khall) 2012-09-10 11:39:18 UTC
The ajax borrower search requires that the logged in librarian have full circulation permissions. I don't think this would be considered a bug.

Comment 41 Katrin Fischer 2012-09-11 05:24:31 UTC
Hi Kyle, 

sorry to reset this to 'failed qa', but I spotted a translation problem. 

You only add the new permissoins to the English files, which means they will not be available for anyone using not the English sample files. Could you add them to the other languages as well please? You don't have to translate the descriptions - translators will take care of it. But this way functionality is there and it's easier to fix a missing translation than to figure out a missing permission.

I found some other minor things, but wanted to note them:

Another request I have would be to add some documentation to your new tables - I am sure Nicole would get to it sometime, but I think it would much easier for you to do.

Some of the templates don't follow the capitalization rules (example: Course Reserves)

I am wondering about some changes that don't seem to belong to the course reserves module:

Example: maninvoice.tt:
 //<![CDATA[
 $(document).ready(function(){
-	$("fieldset.rows input").keydown(function(e){ return checkEnter(e); });
+	$("fieldset.rows input").addClass("noEnterSubmit");

Can you explain why the change? Maybe this should be a separate bug as it seems to change a general pattern that is used in different files.

For future reference, there is a unit test that will catch this- xt/permissions.t.
Comment 45 Kyle M Hall (khall) 2012-09-11 19:30:22 UTC
I'm going to set this to signed off for now, as the followup does not affect the functionality in any way. It's just changing the name of one system pref, and changing the capitalization of some words. If anyone feels this needs it's own sign-off, please reset the status.

Thanks go to wajasu for the extensive and stringent testing this patch has gone through!

QA Comments:

Great patch :)
Code clean and easy to read.

Some remarks:
Blocker:
* perlcritic does not pass on course_reserves/add_items.pl:
Variable declared in conditional statement at line 60, column 5.  Declare variables outside of the condition.  (Severity: 5)
easy to solve.
* It would be good to have an information (close to "Department" and "Term" on the create course page) to explain how to add departments and terms.

not blocker:
- There is a "dot" before the li element of the instructor result list (overflow).
- the edit is on the course.pl and redirects to mod_course.pl, it is ambiguous but the code is short and clean so I understand this choice.
- add_items-step1.tt and add_items-step2.tt could be merged into 1 template
- It would be easier to use DataTable for the course reserves list. Thus the search form would have become useless

I've fixed this by merging both options into GetItemTypes. I would write something like Koha::Service::Itemtype, but I'm waiting for DBIX::Class for Koha.

I have opted for the latter option. I'd love to make this module OOP, but it's already taken so long to develop! I think I would just end up breaking it ; )

OK, it could be OK this time. but as I pushed a lot of things recently, there is a conflict in C4/Koha.pm that I'll let you fix.
Plus, the follow-ups on updatedatabase.pl won't apply nicely.

So, the best option here is that you:
 * squash all patches in one
 * then rebase against master
 * test everything is OK
 * git bz attach rebased-squashed patch

and i'll be able to test & hopefully push !

Note that this feature is not heavily nested in the rest of Koha. So I could push it after the Feature Freeze, as there is only a side effect. ( But I would also be OK to push before the FF if you rebase quickly ;-) )

I cannot really say. It must have something to due with the AuthorisedValues plugin. If I use Dumper from the template, I get this:

$VAR1 = "D\x{e9}partement Sciences";

\x{e9} is indeed the code for é. The select pulldown for TERM and DEPARTMENT on the course edit page look fine, but they use GetAuthorisedValues passed in as a template parameter, rather than the TT plugin.

I have no idea what is going on here.

Sorry! I though I had caught all those. I've gone through the template again and I think I've probably fixed them all now.

The idea is to be able to change those fields while the item is on reserve for at least one course. This is so we can change the circulation rules. For example, an item might have a loan period of 2 weeks, but if it is on reserve for an active course, it may change itemtypes and now have a loan period of 2 hours.

Again, it seems to be related to the plugin, but I don't know how to fix it :(

I don't think this feature can play well with bib-level itemtypes. If one record had 5 items and only 1 was on course reserve, it would change the itemtype for all 5! I think I could just hide the itemtype field in the case that itemtypes are set to bib-level, rather than item-level.

That is indeed expected behavior. The course reserves system was written based on a specification I was given. I will definitely work with Nicole to make sure it is fully documented in the manual.

Comment 64 Paul Poulain 2012-09-28 14:59:53 UTC
Another question:
once an item has been placed for a course reserve, it should not be possible to check it out, isn't it ? Or at least, the librarian should be warned !

That's not the case:
 * I placed barcode=1 on a course reserve.
 * I checked on catalogue/detail.pl that the item was reserved
 * I tried to check-out the item, and got no warning or anything

Imo: we should have a syspref deciding if a check-out for an item placed on reserve result in a warning or it forbidden.

Definitely, I need the complete specifications! because I think I'm missing something about the expected behavior.

Paul, this feature isn't meant to limit the ability to checkout an item ( though it can ). What this feature does is give use the ability to change an item's category code, holding branch, shelving location, and item type *while it's on reserve*. So, an item may usually have a checkout period of 14 days, but while it's on course reserve, the item type may change such that the checkout period is only 2 hours ( and the shelving location can change to 'course reserve shelf' ).

QA comment:

I didn't find any bugs, all looks good on a functional point of view.

However, I found some issues regarding the code.

1/ QA tools complains, I will submit a followup for that.
2/ course.tt : I think the TODO could be removed
3/ the exported variable $VERSION is useless in C4::CourseReserves
4/ It would be better to used hashref instead of hash for some routines in C4::CourseReserves
5/ In C4::CourseReserves, @FIELDS would be returned by a routine (instead of using a global var).
6/ Some use of the loop var ($_)
7/ I am not sure about the consistence of changes in C4::Items::GetItemTypes
To specify the type of the return in parameter is quite weird.
8/ 3 pl scripts should show an error for the user in the template if no course_id exist instead of dying.
9/ Is it normal there is no flag required for course_reserves/course-reserves.pl ?
10/ In kohastructure: Why do you add constraints using an alter table command?  Constraints should be added with the CREATE TABLE command
11/ ShowCourseReserves could be easily calculated in .pl file
12/ YUI buttons should be replaced with Bootstrap
13/ What is the use of the class "noEnterSubmit" (in template files)? I didn't find any reference in .js or .css files.
14/ Template names is now .tt, not .tmpl

Please detail 9 and 13.
Marked as Failed QA for 8, 10 and 12.

I don't see any reasons not to pass QA this feature: all remarks had taken into account.

I have attached six follow-up patches to deal with the following issues:

- perltidy
- ensuring that the new C4::CourseReserves module does not export any symbols by default
- dealing with a copy-pasto that would have allowed unprivileges users to delete course reserves via the OPAC
- cleaning up after a couple spurious warning messages that could appear in the Apachelogs
- a template typo fix
- renaming a method that could be confused with one that might be used for reserves qua hold requests

All of this is also available in the new/bug_8215_merge_candidate branch as well.

Upon QA review of my follow-up patches, I am prepared to merge this to master.
Comment 127 Kyle M Hall 2013-05-21 20:06:10 UTC
Not that I feel strongly about it, but I thought our official perltidy stance was to use the default perltidy configuration ( http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Perltidy ).

Bug 8215 - Course Reserves

Adds a course reserves system for academic libraries.

The course reserves system allows libraries to create courses
and put items on reserves for those courses.

Each item with at least one reserve can have some of its attributes
modified while it is on reserve for at least one active course.
These attributes include item type, collection code, shelving location,
and holding library. If there are no active courses with this item
on reserve, it's attributes will revert to the original attributes
it had before going on reserve.

Test Plan:
  1) Create new authorised value categories DEPARTMENT and TERM
  2) Create a new course, add instructors to that course.
  3) Reserve items for that course, verify item attributes have changed.
  4) Disable course, verify item attributes have reverted.
  5) Enable course again, verify item attributes again.
  6) Delete course, verify item attributes again.
  7) Create two new courses, add the same item(s) to both courses.
  8) Disable one course, verify item attributes have not reverted.
  9) Disable both courses, verify item attributes have reverted.
 10) Enable one course, verify item attributes are again set to the
     new values.
 11) Edit reserve item attributes, verify.
 12) Disable all courses, edit reserve item attributes, verify
     the item itself still has its original attributes, verify
     the reserve item attributes have been updated.
 13) Verify the ability to remove instructors from a course.
 14) Verify new permissions, top level coursereserves, with
     subpermissions add_reserves and delete_reserves.

bug 8215: (followup) avoid SQL syntax error in logs

ModItem currently will attempt to update an item
even if no field updates are specified.  This patch
avoids (harmless) error messages in the Apache
logs if an item is not actually being changed when it
is placed or taken off reserve.

Passes koha-qa.pl, tested and works with all followups, inspection of followups reveals nothing untoward. Passing QA on Galen's followups.

I am the author of the original patch, so if it is deemed inappropriate for me to pass qa on this bug, please slap me with a large trout and reset the status.

No trout necessary, IMO -- the patch series as a whole has seen sufficient attention by other QA team members, and as original author of the patch, you're in a good position to evaluate the followups.

Pushed (along with a one-liner follow-up that I missed attaching to this bug) to master.

Thanks, Kyle!

With this feature, we get new template plugins but are there not duplicated for : 
- authorised value : AuthorisedValues.pm / KohaAuthorisedValues.pm
- branch name : Branches.pm / KohaBranchName.pm

Should the old Koha*.pm ones be removed?

Yep I think. Especially because Koha* plugins don't deal with encoding issues.

Bug 8215 - Course Reserves - Omnibus - v3.12.05

Bug 8215 - Course Reserves

Adds a course reserves system for academic libraries.

The course reserves system allows libraries to create courses
and put items on reserves for those courses.

Each item with at least one reserve can have some of its attributes
modified while it is on reserve for at least one active course.
These attributes include item type, collection code, shelving location,
and holding library. If there are no active courses with this item
on reserve, it's attributes will revert to the original attributes
it had before going on reserve.

Test Plan:
  1) Create new authorised value categories DEPARTMENT and TERM
  2) Create a new course, add instructors to that course.
  3) Reserve items for that course, verify item attributes have changed.
  4) Disable course, verify item attributes have reverted.
  5) Enable course again, verify item attributes again.
  6) Delete course, verify item attributes again.
  7) Create two new courses, add the same item(s) to both courses.
  8) Disable one course, verify item attributes have not reverted.
  9) Disable both courses, verify item attributes have reverted.
 10) Enable one course, verify item attributes are again set to the
     new values.
 11) Edit reserve item attributes, verify.
 12) Disable all courses, edit reserve item attributes, verify
     the item itself still has its original attributes, verify
     the reserve item attributes have been updated.
 13) Verify the ability to remove instructors from a course.
 14) Verify new permissions, top level coursereserves, with
     subpermissions add_reserves and delete_reserves.

This patch series introduce new TT plugins. They have been grabbed and pushed to 3.12.x, will be in 3.12.6 as they have been actively used for some bugfixes on the stable branch.

Thanks Kyle!
