Description Jonathan Druart 2017-01-23 14:31:12 UTC
On of the awesome things we will be able to do with the TT syntax is the support of plurals.

For instance we will be able to send a list of items, checkouts, etc. to the notice template.
That way we will get rid of our custom syntax like <<items.content>> or <item></item> for instance.

The existing code already has the playground for that but it is not used.

That way we will get rid of our custom syntax like <<items.content>> or <item></item> for instance.

The existing code already has the playground for that but it is not used.

Basically the idea is to add a "loops" key which can contain a list of
object to retrieve from the DB and send to the template.
For instance:
    loops => { overdues => [ $itemnumber_1, .., $itemnumber_N ] }

will send a variable "overdues" to the template. It will contain the
Koha::Checkout objects relative to the id passed.

There is one quite big inconvenient to this approach so far: since we
are still supporting the historical syntax, the objects can be fetch by
a script, then the script will send the id to GetPreparedLetter which
will refetch them.
This must be improved, but I suggest to do that later.

Test plan:
  prove t/db_dependent/Letters/TemplateToolkit.t
should return green

Bug 17971: Add support for objects represented by fk

For instance an issue is not fetch from its fk but using the fk
itemnumber.
We need to support them.

Pushed to master for 17.05, thanks Jonathan, Nick!
Comment 12 Katrin Fischer 2017-04-02 16:23:10 UTC
This won't get ported back to 16.11.x as it is an enhancement.
