Description Kyle M Hall (khall) 2017-11-13 16:03:36 UTC
1) Add a pulldown and button labeled "Add randomized holds" to the holds page for each bib
Comment 1 Magnus Enger 2017-11-27 08:57:11 UTC
Not sure I understand this one. Is it similar/related to Bug 8809 - Cascading Holds?
Comment 2 Agustín Moyano 2019-07-10 13:59:26 UTC
This bug is intended to add the ability for clubs to place a hold for bibs

This means that when a club places a hold, what really happens is that a hold will automatically be placed for each member in random order.

Bug 19618: Add ability to place holds for members of a club in intranet

This patch adds the ability to place a hold for each member of a club in random order.

To test:
1) apply this patch
2) create 2 clubs, (club names should have some part in common, and some part different for each other)
3) in one of them add at least 6 members
4) enter patron clubs management and click on "Actions" button
SUCCESS.1 => club with members has a new action called "search to hold"
5) click on search to hold
SUCCESS.2 => in the list of bilios there appears an action called "Place hold for <club name>"
6) click on "Place hold for <club name>"
SUCCESS.3 => a new window appears where you can select pickup location (defaults to club's library, if any), and the list of members.
7) go back to the list of bilios in the catalog and click on "Forget <club name>"
8) click on "Holds" action of any biblio
SUCCESS.4 => a search box appears with two tabs: Patrons and Clubs
9) click on Clubs tab and search by the common part of clubs names
SUCCESS.5 => a list of clubs that matches the search appears. If you click on any of them, the same page as SUCCESS.3 appears.
10) go back to the search box in SUCCESS.4 and search by the different part of the name.
SUCCESS.6 => because there is only one club that matches search criteria, the same page as SUCCESS.3 appears;

To test:
1) Reach SUCCESS.3 test point of previous patch with club that has no enrollments
2) Click on "Place Hold"
SUCCESS => an alert should appear that you cannot place hold on a club without patrons
3) Reach SUCCESS.3 test point of previous patch with club that has enrollments
4) Click on "Place Hold"

Agustín, you need to add the proposed endpoints here:
https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/REST_api_RFCs

I suggest you copy and paste another RFC. As this is using new tables, you probably don't need to propose attribute name mappings.

My 2 cents.

Some QA notes though.. What happens if the club is disbanded (deleted).. should the holds also be removed.. I don't see anything here doing that?

Hi Martin, thanks for taking the time.

I really wouldn't touch holds that were already placed, even if club was deleted. 

Patrons may depend on that hold.

Was this change expected?

Either it was and we should remove placerequest.pl as it was the only occurrence, or we should restore the call.
Comment 27 Jonathan Druart 2020-01-13 10:22:30 UTC
At first glance I'd say there is a item_type (expected by Koha::REST::V1::Holds) vs itemtype (sent by request.tt) issue
Also reserve_date vs hold_date

Either I am missing something or this patchset was not ready to be pushed.

1044                     data.hold_date = $('.datepickerfrom_hidden').val()||null;

1047                 }

Are we safe?

My only concern is not about attribute mappings, but on the multi_hold use case.

Comment 33 Jonathan Druart 2020-02-26 16:03:47 UTC
Can you explain what is the purpose of the new table?

club_holds_to_patron_holds.error_code seems super odd, it takes the return of CanBookBeReserved and put it in DB??

How is this table populated? Only from an API endpoint that is not used from Koha?

Hi Jonathan, I'll respond between lines:

(In reply to Jonathan Druart from comment #33)
> Can you explain what is the purpose of the new table?

This bug adds 2 new tables:

club_holds and club_holds_to_patron_holds

club_holds has the information of a hold request or error for a certain club.

 
> club_holds_to_patron_holds.error_code seems super odd, it takes the return
> of CanBookBeReserved and put it in DB??

Think of club_holds_to_patron_holds table more like a log.. it has the information of which holds where generated from a certain club hold, and in case of error, it has the information of the error message, error code and patron.
 
So, if someone, someday wants to create a report on how many holds where made through club holds, they have the info.

> How is this table populated? Only from an API endpoint that is not used from
> Koha?

It's populated in the API endpoint, but it's used in koha-tmpl/intranet-tmpl/prog/en/modules/reserve/request.tt line 150

<form action="/api/v1/clubs/[% club.id | html %]/holds" method="post" name="form" id="club-request-form">
Comment 35 Jonathan Druart 2020-02-26 17:04:39 UTC
Thanks Agustin, it's a bit more clear.

More questions then :)
Is there a plan to have a UI view of club_holds_to_patron_holds?
If not, what's the point of it? Could not we replace it with entries in action_logs?

The enum on error_code is weird, and will lead to issues: everytime a new status is returned by the subroutine we will need to adjust the enum. It seems that it should be a simple varchar.
By the way what is the difference between error_code and error_message? (Documentation is missing in kohastructure.sql :)

I don't remember exactly what we planned for this table, but I do remember that we created them for traceability. 

But it's not a bad idea to have a "club holds history" in a near future.

I didn't know action_logs table existed.. I should study it.

You're right.. It's a bad design

> By the way what is the difference between error_code and error_message?
> (Documentation is missing in kohastructure.sql :)

error_code holds the result of C4::Reserves::CanItemBeReserved or C4::Reserves::CanBookBeReserved depending if you are trying to hold on a item or a biblio.

error_message says "Could not create hold for Patron(".$patron_id.")" if C4::Reserves::AddReserve fails.. 

maybe we can have only one column of error messages.

This has a translation code smell to me.. adding such a message in the database means it's not translatable.. we should stick to codes and then use the templates to allow translation.
Comment 38 Jonathan Druart 2020-08-27 09:03:09 UTC
How do we add a hold for club at item level?
It's all what I see on the form: https://snipboard.io/cOIK8q.jpg

ie. how do I fill club_holds.item_id with something?
Comment 39 Andrew Fuerste-Henry 2021-01-04 15:19:27 UTC
This wasn't ever intended to place item-level holds. We're placing a bunch of bib-level holds for our club patrons in a random order, with the expectation that the bib will contain multiple copies of the same title and everyone will get a copy.
