Cron jobs and daemons

Koha is supported by a number of background tasks. These tasks can either be periodically executed tasks (cron jobs) or continuously running tasks called daemons.

A cron job is a Linux command for scheduling a command or script on your server to complete repetitive tasks automatically. Scripts executed as a cron job are typically used to modify files or databases; however, they can perform other tasks that do not modify data on the server, like sending out email notifications.

A daemon is a Linux command that is typically started when the system is booted and runs in the background doing some function. The database used by Koha (either MySQL or MariaDB) is a daemon as is the web server (typically Apache).

Koha has many cron jobs in place that you can enable (search engine indexing, overdue notice generation, data cleanup and more), and a few daemons. This chapter will explain those for you.

Tanım:

  • Kütüphane sisteminiz okuyucuların raftaki materyaller üzerinde ayırtma yapmalarına izin veriyorsa periyodik olarak çalıştırılması gereken bir betiktir. Bu betik, gelen bir ayırtma talebini karşılamak için hangi kütüphanenin sorumlu olacağını belirler.

    It’s behavior is controlled by the system preferences StaticHoldsQueueWeight and RandomizeHoldsQueueWeight.

    Kütüphanelerinizin raf üzerinde ayırtma isteklerini yerine getirme işlemine katılmasını istemiyorsanız, *katılmakta* olan tüm kütüphanenin birim kodlarını virgüllerle ayırarak girerek, işleme katılmayı sağlayan kitaplıklarını listelemelisiniz (ör. “MPL, CPL, SPL, BML” vb.).

    Ayırtma sırası varsayılan olarak, sistemin öncelikle ayırtma isteğinin halihazırda alınacağı kütüphanede mevcut olan materyalleri kullanarak gerçekleştireceği şekilde oluşturulacaktır. Bir ayırtma isteğini yerine getirecek materyal kütüphanede yoksa, build_holds__queue.pl bu sefer StaticHoldsQueueWeight içerisinde tanımlı kütüphanelerin listesini kullanacaktır. Eğer RandomizeHoldsQueueWeight devre dışı ise (varsayılan olarak devre dışıdır), komut dizini ayırtma isteklerini birimlerin StaticHoldsQueueWeight sistem tercihinde yer alma sırasına göre atayacaktır.

    Örneğin, sisteminizin değişen boyutlarda (küçük, orta ve büyük) 3 kütüphanesi varsa ve siz ayırmaları daha küçük kütüphanelerden önce daha büyük kütüphanelere yüklemek istiyorsanız, Ayırma Kuyruğundaki Statik Tercihlerin “LRG,MED,SML” şeklinde gözükmesini isteyeceksiniz.

    Ayırma yapma işlemleri yükünün kütüphane sisteminizin genelinde eşit olarak dağılmasını istiyorsanız, Ayırma Kuyruğu Rastgele Tercihlerini etkinleştiriniz. Bu sistem tercihi etkinleştirildiğinde, kütüphanelerdeki raflarda ayırma yapma isteği liste her defasında tekrar oluşturulduğunda rastgele hale getirilecektir.

    StaticHoldsQueueWeight tercihlerini boş bırakmak ters etki yapmaktadır. Bu şekilde yapmak, build_holds_queue kodunun RandomizeHoldsQueueWeight Tercihlerini görmezden gelmesine, bu da kodun rastgele yerine alfabetik sıraya göre ayırtma yapmasına sebep olacaktır.

Expired holds

Komut dizisi yolu: misc/cronjobs/holds/cancel_expired_holds.pl

Does: cancels holds where the user has set an expiration date. If the library is using the ExpireReservesMaxPickUpDelay and ExpireReservesMaxPickUpDelayCharge preferences then this script will also cancel holds that have been sitting on the hold shelf for too long and will (if the library does) charge the patron for not picking up the hold.

It is possible to add a cancellation reason with the –reason parameter. Use the cancellation code from the HOLD_CANCELLATION authorized value category

Frekans önerisi: günlük

Cezalar

Komut dizisi yolu: misc/cronjobs/fines.pl

Does: calculates and charges (or increments) overdue fines per item to patron accounts. The fine calculation is done using the grace period, fine interval, fine amount and other parameters from the circulation and fines rules.

Required by: finesMode system preference

Frekans önerisi: gecelik

Note If the Koha system preference ‘finesMode’ is set to ‘production’, the fines are charged to the patron accounts. If set to ‘test’, the fines are calculated but not applied.

Note Fines will not be applied on a holiday.

PARAMETERS - -h|–help

  • get help message

  • -l|–log

    • log the output to a file (optional if the -o parameter is given)

  • -v|–verbose

    • verbose mode

  • -m|–maxdays

    • how many days back of overdues to process

    • this can improve performance by simply the number of records that need to be processed. It can be safe to limit the overdues processed to those under X days overdues given that circulation policy often caps fines at a maximum after a number of days.

Static fines

Komut dizisi yolu: misc/cronjobs/staticfines.pl

Does: charges a single static fine for any/all overdues a patron currently has outstanding. The charge amount is either defined on the command line per borrower category or will use the circulation rules associated with the oldest overdue item the patron has currently checked out (for the first fine period only) Once charged, the fine is static: No new fines will be added until the existing fine is paid off in full.

Not

Dates should be in ISO format, e.g., 2013-07-19, and can be generated with date -d ‘-3 month’ “+%Y-%m-%d”.

Önemli

The options to select the patron records to delete are cumulative. For example, supplying both –expired_before and –library specifies that patron records must meet both conditions to be selected for deletion.

PARAMETERS

This script replaces the j2a.pl script.

Frekans önerisi: gecelik

AÇIKLAMA

This script is designed to update patrons from one category to another using the criteria specified using command line arguments.

PARAMETERS

  • –too_old Update, if patron is over the upper age limit of their current patron category.

  • –too_young Update, if patron is below the minimum age limit of their patron category.

  • –fo=X|–fineover=X Update, if the total fine amount on the patron account is over X.

  • –where <conditions> Update, if the SQL <where> clause is met.

  • -v|–verbose Verbose mode: Without this flag only fatal errors are reported.

  • -c|–confirm Commits the changes to the database. No changes will be made unless this argument is added to the command.

  • -b|–branch <branchcode> Update, if the home branch of the patron matches the <branchcode> given.

  • -f|–form <categorycode> Update, if the patron currently has this patron category.

  • -t|–to <categorycode> Update the patrons matching the criteria to this patron category.

KULLANIM ÖRNEKLERİ

“update_patrons_category.pl”

“update_patrons_category.pl” -b=<branchcode> -f=<categorycode> -t=<categorycode> -c” (Processes a single branch, and updates the patron categories from category to category)

“update_patrons_category.pl” -f=<categorycode> -t=<categorycode> -v” (Processes all branches, shows all messages, and reports the patrons who would be affected. Takes no action on the database)

Update patrons’ messaging preferences

Script path: misc/maintenance/borrowers-force-messaging-defaults.pl

Does: updates patrons’ messaging preferences to the default values set in the patron categories.

Messaging preferences defaults are automatically set when adding a new patron or when importing patrons with the patron import tool. However, if you import patrons directly in the database, these messaging preferences will not be set.

There is no suggested frequency. This is a tool to be used when needed, although if you regularly import patrons directly in the database (through a third-party, for example), you can add it to your crontab.

AÇIKLAMA

If the EnhancedMessagingPreferences system preference is enabled after borrowers have been created in the DB, those borrowers won’t have messaging transport preferences default values as defined for their borrower category. So you would have to modify each borrower one by one if you would like to send them ‘Hold Filled’ notice for example.

This script creates/overwrites messaging preferences for all borrowers and sets them to default values defined for the category they belong to (unless you use the options -not-expired or -no-overwrite to update a subset).

PARAMETERS

  • –doit

    Update the patrons. The script will not update patrons’ messaging preferences without this option. It will only list the patrons who would have been updated.

  • –not-expired

    Only update patrons who are still active (whose files are not yet expired).

  • –no-overwrite

    Only update patrons without any messaging preferences. This option will skip patrons who have already set their preferences.

  • –category

    Only update patrons from the specified category.

    Uyarı

    This option cannot be repeated.

    For example:

    borrowers-force-messaging-defaults.pl --doit --category PT --category B

    will only update patrons from category B (the last category specified).

  • –since

    Only update patrons enrolled since the specified date.

    Not

    This option can use specific or relative dates.

    For example:

    borrowers-force-messaging-defaults.pl --doit --since "2022-07-12"

    will only update patrons enrolled since July 12, 2022.

    And:

    borrowers-force-messaging-defaults.pl --doit --since `date -d "1 day ago" '+%Y-%m-%d'

    will only update patrons enrolled since yesterday.

KULLANIM ÖRNEKLERİ

borrowers-force-messaging-defaults.pl --doit

Updates all patrons to give them the default messaging preferences values from their respective category.

borrowers-force-messaging-defaults.pl --doit --not-expired

Updates all patrons whose memberships are not expired to give them the default messaging preferences values from their respective category.

borrowers-force-messaging-defaults.pl --doit --category PT

Updates all patrons in the PT category to give them the default messaging preferences for that category.

borrowers-force-messaging-defaults.pl --doit --no-overwrite --since "2022-03-01"

Updates patrons who do not have any messaging preferences set and who are enrolled since March 1st, 2022.

Ne yapar: Gecikmeye kalan kullanıcıları uyarmak için gecikme mesajlarını hazırlar (hem e-posta hem de basılı olarak)

Frekans önerisi: gecelik

AÇIKLAMA

This script creates and queues the overdue notices according to the parameters set in the overdue notice/status triggers tool.

PARAMETERS

  • -n | –nomail

    • Do not send any email. Overdue notices that would have been sent to the patrons or to the admin are printed to standard out. CSV data (if the –csv flag is set) is written to standard out or to any CSV filename given.

  • –max <days>

    • Maximum days overdue to deal with.

    • Items overdue since longer than max days are assumed to be handled somewhere else, probably the longoverdues script. They are therefore ignored by this script. No notices are sent for them, and they are not added to any CSV files.

    • Defaults to 90 days.

  • –library <branchcode>

    • Only deal with overdues from this library.

    • Use the value in the branches.branchcode table.

    • This parameter is repeatable, to process overdues for a group of libraries.

  • –csv <filename>

    • Produces a CSV file.

    • If the -n (no mail) flag is set, this CSV data is sent to standard out or to a filename if provided. Otherwise, only overdues that could not be emailed are sent in CSV format to the admin.

  • –html <directory>

    • Output html to a file in the given directory.

    • If a patron does not have an email address or if the -n (no mail) flag is set, an HTML file is generated in the specified directory. This can be downloaded or further processed by library staff.

    • The file will be called notices-YYYY-MM-DD.html and placed in the directory specified.

  • –text <directory>

    • Output plain text to a file in the given directory.

    • If a patron does not have an email address or if the -n (no mail) flag is set, a text file is generated in the specified directory. This can be downloaded or further processed by library staff.

    • The file will be called notices-YYYY-MM-DD.txt and placed in the directory specified.

  • –itemscontent <list of fields>

    • Item information in templates.

    • Takes a comma separated list of fields that get substituted into templates in places of the <<items.content>> placeholder.

    • Defaults to due date,title,barcode,author

    • Other possible values come from fields in the biblio, items and issues tables.

  • –borcat <categorycode>

    • Prepare only overdue notices for specified patron categories.

    • This parameter is repeatable, to include several patron categories.

    • Use the value in categories.categorycode.

  • –borcatout <categorycode>

    • Do not prepare overdue notices for specified patron categories.

    • This parameter is repeatable, to exclude several patron categories.

    • Use the value in categories.categorycode.

    • t | –triggered

    • This option causes a notice to be generated if and only if an item is overdue by the number of days defined in the overdue notice trigger.

    • By default, a notice is sent each time the script runs, which is suitable for less frequent run cron script, but requires syncing notice triggers with the cron schedule to ensure proper behavior.

    • Add the –triggered option for daily cron, at the risk of no notice being generated if the cron fails to run on time.

  • –test

    • This option makes the script run in test mode.

    • In test mode, the script won’t make any changes on the DB. This is useful for debugging configuration.

  • –list-all

    • By default, <<items.content>> lists only those items that fall in the range of the currently processing notice.

    • Choose –list-all to include all overdue items in the list (limited by the –max setting).

  • –date <yyyy-mm-dd>

    • Emulate overdues run for this date.

  • –email <email_type>

    • Specify the type of email that will be used.

    • Can be ‘email’, ‘emailpro’ or ‘B_email’.

    • This parameter is repeatable.

  • –frombranch

    • Organize and send overdue notices by home library (item-homebranch) or checkout library (item-issuebranch).

    • Defaults to item-issuebranch.

    Not

    This option is only used if the OverdueNoticeFrom system preference is set to ‘command-line option’.

Daemons

Daemons are continuously running tasks that help support Koha operation. Your database and web-server are run as daemons. Newer versions of Koha start two different daemons for most koha instances:

  • zebra - this is the index server

  • koha-indexer - this daemon updates the index server with new and modified data (biblios and authorities)

These daemons are started by the script /etc/init.d/koha-common.

Zebra indexer daemon

Script path: /usr/sbin/koha-indexer (invoked from /etc/init.d/koha-common)

The koha-indexer script invokes rebuild_zebra.pl in daemon mode. In this mode, the script will run continuously and check the database for new or modified data every 30 seconds. New or modified records are then sent to Zebra for indexing, which only takes a second or so. The advantage of this approach is a search system which is much more responsive to changes, compared to the cron job approach.
