  Sponsored by Round Rock Public Library

  This patchset introduces an internal clipboard to the advanced editor and provides some new functionality to make use of it; The following default shortcuts are provided but can be edited as per bug 21411.

  Changed:

  • Ctrl-X: Now cuts a line into the clipboard area

  Three new system preferences are introduced, CustomCoverImagesURL, CustomCoverImages and OPACCustomCoverImages.

Fines and fees

• [23228] Add option to automatically display payment receipt for printing after making a payment

  This enhancement adds the optional ability to automatically popup the receipt print dialogue upon successful payments in the staff client.

  Note: The new FinePaymentAutoPopup must be enabled and popup blocker may require setting to allow popups for your Koha staff client domain.

Hold requests

• [19618] Add ‘Club Holds’ feature

  Sponsored by South East Kansas Library System

  This new feature adds the ability for clubs to place a hold for bibs. When such a hold is placed, in the background a hold will be automatically placed for each member of the group in random order.

OPAC

• [22581] Add support for Plaine & Easie musical incipits rendering in OPAC

  Sponsored by Biblioteca Provincial Fr. Mamerto Esquiú (Provincia Franciscana de la Asunción)

  This development adds support for displaying Plaine & Easie musical incipits in the OPAC. With this feature enabled, when a cataloguer adds incipits codes to the 031 MARC21 fields they will display as musical scores and optionally include a short audio clip.

• [23214] Add ability to pay guarantees fines

  This new feature gives guarantors the option to pay off their guarantees charges using online payments via the OPAC.

Patrons

• [14570] Make it possible to add multiple guarantors to a record

  Sponsored by Northeast Kansas Library System and Vermont Organization of Koha Automated Libraries

  This development adds the ability for a patron to have an unlimited number of guarantors in any combination of existing Koha patrons and manually added guarantors ( e.g. the guarantor has no patron record in Koha ).

  This feature retains the existing behaviour for importing guarantors during patron imports; However, guarantors can no longer be viewed, added or updated via the REST API.

  Reports that utilize borrowers.guarantorid will need to be updated.

Plugin architecture

• [22706] Add plugin hooks to allow custom password strength checking modules

  This new feature allows plugin authors to implement a check_password method to enable custom password validation routines.

  Warning: Care should be taken when installing any plugins and only plugins you trust should be used. The hook introduced here allows plugin authors to potentially steel plain text passwords during patron creations and updates.

• [22709] Add hooks to notify plugins of biblio and item changes

  This new feature allows plugin authors to implement after_biblio_action and after_item_action methods which may be used to take various actions upon biblio and item creations, modifications and deletions.

  Warning: Care should be taken when installing any plugins and only plugins you trust should be used.

• [22834] Add a method for plugins to return the absolute path for bundled files

  This new feature allows plugin authors to construct absolute paths to resources contained within their plugins using the new bundle_path method.

  This can be used to aid in serving static content.

  Warning: Care should be taken when installing any plugins and only plugins you trust should be used.

• [22835] Serve static files from plugins through the API

  Sponsored by Theke Solutions

  This new feature allows plugin authors to serve static files through the API without the requirement to tweak the Apache configuration files. Routes to the static files tree are automatically loaded from a specially crafted file the plugin authors need to include in the distributed .kpz files.

  Warning: Care should be taken when installing any plugins and only plugins you trust should be used.a

• [23050] Add hook to add a tab in intranet biblio details page

  This new feature allows plugin authors to add additional tabs to the intranet biblio details page. The new intranet_catalog_biblio_tab method which should return an array of Koha::Plugins::Tab objects is introduced.

  Warning: Care should be taken when installing any plugins and only plugins you trust should be used.

• [23237] Add support for [% INCLUDE %] in plugin templates

  The new feature allows plugin authors to use template [% INCLUDE %] directives in their templates. It does so by introducing a new variable, PLUGIN_DIR, allowing the template engine to locate the includes.

  Usage: [% INCLUDE "$PLUGIN_DIR/header.tt" %]

  Warning: Care should be taken when installing any plugins and only plugins you trust should be used.

REST API

• [16825] Add API route for getting an item

  Sponsored by Koha-Suomi Oy

• [17003] Add API route to get checkout’s renewability

• [23517] Add API route to update a holds priority

Staff Client

• [23321] Add ‘cash registers’ to the accounts system

  Sponsored by Cheshire Libraries Shared Services and PTFS Europe

  This new feature adds the ability to define cash registers in Koha and assign transactions to them. It introduces the new UseCashRegisters system preference which when enabled will expose the cash register management screen under the administration area and also require a cash register to be associated with any transaction of the payment type CASH.

Z39.50 / SRU / OpenSearch Servers

• [13937] Add an Elasticsearch-compatible Z39.50/SRU daemon

  Sponsored by National Library of Finland

  This development allows libraries wishing to run Elasticsearch but also serve as a public SRU/Z39.50 gateway to do so without running Zebra in parallel.

Enhancements

Acquisitions

• [14669] Search orders by managing library
• [20254] Forbid the download of duplicate EDI messages

• [20595] EDI: Add support for LRP (Library Rotation Plan) for Koha with Stock Rotation enabled

  Sponsored by PTFS Europe

  This enhancement allows items to be automatically added to rotas at acquisition time by using the LRP (Library Rotation Plan) field in EDI.a

• [23522] Show “Actual price” in basket when available

  Sponsored by Virginia Tech

Architecture, internals, and plumbing

• [18928] Move holdallowed, hold_fulfillment_policy and returnbranch into the circulation_rules table.

  Reports note: This changes the database schema, reports referencing the default_branch_circ_rules, default_circ_rules, default_branch_item_rules or branch_item_rules tables will need to be updated

• [18930] Move ‘refund lost item fee rules’ into the circulation_rules table

  Reports note: This changes the database schema, reports referencing the refund_lost_item_fee_rules table will need to be updated

• [22563] Convert lost handling to use ‘status’ instead of multiple accounttypes

  Reports note: The accounttype for lost item fees has been updated from ‘L’ to ‘LOST’ and for lost item returned credits it has been updated from ‘CR’ to ‘LOST_RETURNED’. The status field is now used to track the reason why an ‘OVERDUE’ fee has stopped incrementing and it may include ‘LOST’

• [22610] SIP Payment Types should be moved out of accountype

  Reports note: SIP2 accounttypes have been deprecated in favour of using standard accounttypes across transactions in the accountlines. Reports should be updated to use payment_type to distinguish between the different SIP2 payment type as required.

• [22721] Normalize GetMarcFromKohaField calls

• [22837] Koha::Account::Line->apply should not require a ‘set’ of debits
• [23068] Add ability for Koha to handle X-Forwarded-For headers so REMOTE_ADDR features work behind a proxy
• [23152] koha_object[s]_class methods must be implemented when needed
• [23230] Make Koha::Plugins::Base::versioncompare OO
• [23272] Koha::AuthorisedValue should use Koha::Object::Limit::Library
• [23281] Add Koha::Objects::Limit::Library
• [23414] Improve performance of C4/XSLT/buildKohaItemsNamespace

• [23580] Add C4::Context->yaml_preference

  This trivial patch adds a convenient way to retrieve YAML-based system preferences in the code, avoiding the need to handle the decoding in each place they are used.

• [23623] Use the new API and remove /svc scripts for privacy settings

• [23770] Add Koha::Object(s)->to_api method

  Sponsored by ByWater Solutions

• [23793] Add an EmbedItems RecordProcessor filter for MARC::Record objects

• [23807] Add Koha::Item->as_marc_field
• [23843] Make existing endpoints use Koha::Object(s)->to_api

Authentication

• [23146] Add support for Basic auth on the OAuth2 token endpoint

  Sponsored by ByWater Solutions

  This patchset adds flexibility to the OAuth2 implementation regarding how the parameters are passed on the request. The original implementation of OAuth2 only contemplated the option to pass the client_id and client_secret parameters on the request body. It is very common that clients expect to be able to pass them as a Basic authorization header.

Cataloging

• [15497] Limit item types by library

  Sponsored by Central Kansas Library System, Northeast Kansas Library System and South East Kansas Library System

• [17178] Add a popup/keyboard shortcuts for diacritics and symbols in the advanced cataloging editor

  Sponsored by Round Rock Public Library

• [23602] Library limitations should display in the item types table

Circulation

• [14697] Extend and enhance “Claims returned” lost status

  Sponsored by Fargo Public Library and North Central Regional Library System

  This enhancement extends the “Claims returned” lost status and allows staff to track items that patrons claim to have returned. Items are marked as “Claims returned” from the checkout page in the staff side.

  There are 3 new systems preferences to set for this functionality to work: ClaimReturnedChargeFee, ClaimReturnedLostValue and ClaimReturnedWarningThreshold

• [17492] Show warning if patron’s age is out of category limits

  This development adds a warning at checkout if a patron is found to have an age that is outside their categories age range and allows the staff user to immediately update the patrons’ category from the warning dialogue.

• [20194] Display both biblioitems.itemtype and items.itype in circulation screens

• [20959] Style checkin form more like the checkout form, with collapsed settings panel
• [23328] Some check-in messages should be dismissable
• [23507] Add ability to show and print change given on fee receipt from FinePaymentAutoPopup
• [23686] Check onsite checkout when the last checkout was an onsite one

Command-line Utilities

• [16219] Runreport.pl should allow SQL parameters to be passed on the command line

• [17168] Add a command line script for updating patron category based on status

  Sponsored by Round Rock Public Library

  These patches introduce a new script to replace the j2a.pl script with a more flexible set of options.

  misc/cronjobs/update_patrons_category.pl can now be used to update patrons who are older or younger than their patron categories to a category chosen by the user.

  Additionally, this script allows users to specify a fine total to update patrons, to use any specified borrowers field, and to run by category and/or branch.

  The intention here is to assist in automating updating patrons for schools or libraries where patrons are regularly changed – patrons with fines can be moved to ‘probational statuses’ or patrons without fines can be moved to ‘privileged statuses’.

  The flexibility should allow for various workflows to be automated via cronjob.

• [22509] Add a script to generate MARC fields containing date formatted strings

  Sponsored by Orex Digital

• [23346] Add without-db-name parameter to koha-dump

  This enhancement is the first step in allowing a koha database dump file to be restored into another koha instance.

  One can now pass the --without-db-name option to koha-dump to attain a zipped sql dump with no longer contains the CREATE DATABASE and USE statements within the restore file.

Fines and fees

• [6759] Use a different account type for account renewals than for new accounts

  This enhancement makes account renewal charges distinct from initial account registration charges.

  Reports note: Prior to this patch both account creations and account renewals would result in an accountline with accounttype A; After this patch account creations will result in an accountline with accounttype ACCOUNT and account renewals will result in ana ccountline with accounttype ACCOUNT_RENEW.

• [22627] Rephrase ‘your fines and charges’ tab in OPAC

  Sponsored by Catalyst

• [23049] Replace MANUAL_INV authorised value with a dedicated table

  This patchset moves the MANUAL_INV authorized values into their own table and adds an interface into the administration pages to allow the addition and modification of such account types.

  This serves as the foundation for enhancing the accounts system and leads to clearer code and more consistent data via database-level constraints.

  Reports note: Reports will need to be updated to look in the new debit_type_code field for accountlines of type ‘debit’ and use the updated coded values.

• [23805] Add a dedicated credit_types table

  This patchset moves the remaining accounttypes, all of which should be credits after bug 23049, into their own table.

  This serves as the foundation for enhancing the accounts system and leads to clearer code and more consistent data via database-level constraints.

  Reports note: Reports will need to be updated to look in the new credit_type_code field for accountlines of type ‘credit’ and use the updated coded values.

Hold requests

• [22922] Allow to modify hold and hold expiration date in staff

Holidays

• [15260] Option for extended loan with useDaysMode

  Sponsored by Cheshire East Council, Cheshire West and Chester Council, Newcastle City Council and Sefton Council

  The useDaysMode system preference has been enhanced to include an additional option.

  This allows libraries to dictate that if the library is closed on the usual due date, the loan period should be pushed forward to the next open day which is the same day of the week.

  For example : If an item should be due back on a Tuesday but that particular Tuesday is closed, then instead of it being due back the Wednesday (usual behaviour when due date is pushed forward to next open day), it would actually be due back the next available open Tuesday.

Plugin architecture

• [21073] Improve plugin performance

  Before this patch, whenever a plugin hook was reached in koha code we would iteratively load plugins looking for one that may support the method. This patch adds database level caching of this data so we do one database call instead of iteratively calling ‘load’.

• [23191] Administrators should be able to install plugins from the command line

• [23390] Add placeholder syntax for column names

  This enhancement allows for renaming columns used to trigger batch modification actions in reports. Before this patch, a column had to be called ‘itemnumber’ to be sent from reports to batch modification. With this enhancement, you can specify [[itemnumber| Koha_internal_id]] to allow for a clearer name for the end-user and to allow translation of terms like ‘itemnumber’ while preserving the batch modification functionality.

SIP2

System Administration

• [11529] Add subtitle, medium and part fields to biblio table

  Sponsored by National Library of Finland

  Keywords to MARC mapping functionality has been replaced with additional Koha fields in the bibliographic framework.

  The keyword mapping only offered a single field, subtitle, and the information was always retrieved from the MARC record, which made it relatively slow. The subtitle and other relevant fields are now available as normal Koha fields:

  biblio.medium - Medium information (MARC 21: 245h, UNIMARC: 200b)
  biblio.subtitle - Subtitle (MARC 21: 245b, UNIMARC: 200e)
  biblio.part_number - Part number (MARC 21: 245n, UNIMARC: 200h)
  biblio.part_name - Part name (MARC 21: 245p, UNIMARC: 200i)
  

  The subfields in the default framework are automatically updated to include these new fields unless they are already mapped to another Koha field.

  Important note: misc/batchRebuildBiblioTables.pl should be run, after this enhancement is applied, to populate the fields in the database, and it will take some time for larger databases.

Circulation

• [13958] Add a suspensionsCalendar syspref

  Sponsored by Universidad Nacional de Córdoba

  Before 18.05, suspension expiry date calculation didn’t take the calendar into account. This behaviour changed with bug 19204, and some libraries miss the old behaviour.

  These patches decouple overdue days calculation configuration (finesCalendar) from how the expiry date is calculated for the suspension through a new system preference: SuspensionsCalendar, that has the exact same options but only applies to suspensions. On upgrade, the new preference is populated with the value from finesCalendar, thus respecting the current configuration.

Command-line Utilities

• [21181] Cancel expired holds cronjob does not cancel holds in transit if ExpireReservesMaxPickUpDelay not set

  This patch corrects a behaviour where an in transit hold would not be cancelled if even the patron specified they did not need the hold after a certain date. In some cases they would receive a notice to pickup a hold they no longer wanted.

  Now these holds will be cancelled while in transit, and should be routed to their home location when checked in with no notice to the patron.
