That definitely sounds like a candidate for a plugin Thank you for accepting this feature to add in Koha 3.14. University Grants Commission in India instructed to college libraries to implement automatic gate register in libraries. This feature will be an addon advantage for Koha users. Suggestions ............................ Need interface / provision to record entry and exit of library user. If so, library staff can collect statistics of how much time students spend in library.

Actually what I said was that it sounds like a great candidate for a plugin, not being part of Koha proper. From 3.12 on Koha will support plugins. (In reply to comment #2) > Thank you for accepting this feature to add in Koha 3.14. If you want this feature in Koha 3.14, you might want look into finding a developer to write a plugin to provide it (or consider writing one yourself, if you are able to do this sort of development in your current position). Chris did not volunteer to spend any time on it, just suggested a way for this to be implemented by someone else. I need this feature for a client. I'll be taking it up.

First of all thanks a lot for this valuable information.Can i have a video regarding this? Is there a status update on this? (In reply to Nabakumar from comment #7) > First of all thanks a lot for this valuable information.Can i have a video > regarding this? The client I was writing this for ran short on funds. So, presently looking for sponsors. New developments on the funds front. So, I'm again on it :) Just received co-sponsorship from the following librarians: Jasimudeen S St.Stephen's College Uzhavoor, Kerala. jasimndd@gmail.com Vimal Kumar Vazhappally M G University Library Kottayam, Kerala. vimal0212@gmail.com Biju Verghese Sacred Heart College Thevara, Kerala. bijuvvlis@gmail.com When Gate Register Module is coming with Koha integrated Library Management system ? (In reply to Hirak Jyoti Hazarika from comment #12) > When Gate Register Module is coming with Koha integrated Library Management > system ? Notice that it is still "Seeking co-sponsors"? Have you donated towards the effort yet? Development takes time and money. Additionally, some bugs take MANY years to actually finish. Patience is a good thing. You've already raised the issue elsewhere. Indranil is aware and still under-funded. Ask him how to donate. ;) I am working on it , but it will take much time as i am new in perl programming and my first contribution in Koha development , 4 months estimated time until finish. It looks like there is an available plugin for this functionality now that had some recent updates too: https://github.com/omkar2403/inout I am closing 'MOVED'. Please reopen if you disagree. |
