622 Migrating Parent/guardian information
623 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
624 Sites who traditionally store parent/guardian information in the
625 patron 'Secondary Identification' field can migrate values from this
626 field to the new guardian field with the following SQL:
629 -------------------------------------------------------------------------
632 -- 1. Find the local ID of the parent/guardian identification type
634 SELECT * FROM config.identification_type;
636 -- 2. On my test system, the id is "101". It will vary!.
637 -- Migrate the value from the ident2 field to the guardian field.
640 SET guardian = ident_value2
642 ident_type2 = 101 -- !! CHANGE TO SUIT
643 AND ident_value2 IS NOT NULL
644 AND ident_value2 <> '';
646 -- 3. delete the original secondary identification data
649 SET ident_value2 = NULL, ident_type2 = NULL
651 ident_type2 = 101; -- !! CHANGE TO SUIT
654 -------------------------------------------------------------------------
659 Evergreen now supports PostgreSQL 9.6 and 10.
660 If you upgrade your database from a PostgreSQL version of 9.5, or
661 lower, to PostgreSQL versions 9.6 or 10, you will need to recreate 3
662 indexes in additon to the normal database upgrade steps. The index
663 recreation is necessary because of changes to the PostgreSQL
664 `unaccent` extension module.
666 The following snippet of SQL code will do the necessary steps:
669 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
670 DROP INDEX actor_usr_first_given_name_unaccent_idx;
671 DROP INDEX actor_usr_second_given_name_unaccent_idx;
672 DROP INDEX actor_usr_family_name_unaccent_idx;
673 CREATE INDEX actor_usr_first_given_name_unaccent_idx ON actor.usr
674 (evergreen.unaccent_and_squash(first_given_name));
675 CREATE INDEX actor_usr_second_given_name_unaccent_idx ON actor.usr
676 (evergreen.unaccent_and_squash(second_given_name));
677 CREATE INDEX actor_usr_family_name_unaccent_idx ON actor.usr
678 (evergreen.unaccent_and_squash(family_name));
679 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
688 Include Item Status in marc_export Items Export
689 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
690 The marc_export script now includes the item status in the 852 subfield s when exporting items.
692 Ability to Reingest Certain Record Attributes In pingest.pl
693 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
694 An option, `--attr`, has been added to the `pingest.pl` support script
695 that allows the user to specify which record attributes to reingest.
696 It can be used one or more times to specify one or more attributes to
697 ingest. It can be omitted to reingest all record attributes. This
698 option is ignored if the `--skip-attrs` option is used.
700 The `--attr` option is most useful after doing something specific that
701 requires only a partial ingest of records. For instance, if you add a
702 new language to the `config.coded_value_map` table, you will want to
703 reingest the `item_lang` attribute on all of your records. The
704 following command line will do that, and only that, ingest:
707 $ /openils/bin/pingest.pl --skip-browse --skip-search --skip-facets \
708 --skip-display --attr=item_lang
716 Database Support for PostgreSQL 10
717 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
718 The Evergreen database can now be built with PostgreSQL version 10.
720 This update has implications for developers who write PgTap tests. In
721 versions of PostgreSQL prior to 10, one could write `\set ECHO` to
722 disable the echoing of commands as they were run. In PostgreSQL
723 version 10, using `\set` without a value is an error. One should now
724 write `\set ECHO none` in order to disable the echoing of commands.
725 This latter form works in all versions of PostgreSQL currently
726 supported by Evergreen.
730 Ubuntu 18.04 Bionic Beaver
731 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
732 Evergreen can now be installed on Ubuntu 18.04 Bionic Beaver. To
733 install the prerequisites, use ubuntu-bionic as the Makefile.install
736 This update also fixes a Perl warning in the HoldNotify module that is
737 an error in the version of Perl (5.26) that is installed on Ubuntu
746 MARC Import/Export Interface Update (Angular Port)
747 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
748 This MARC Import/Export (AKA Vandelay) interface is now built on
749 Angular(7) instead of Dojo. The functionality is consistent with the
750 previous version of the interface, with minor UI adjustments to match
751 the Angular style, plus one new interface called 'Recent Imports'.
755 Users may now save sets of import attributes from the MARC import form as
756 named templates. Users may select a default template, applied on page load
757 by default, and users may delete existing templates.
761 This is a new interface which allows users to see active and recent
762 Vandelay sesssions originating from the same workstation or logged in
763 user account. Active sessions include real-time progress information so
764 the user may track the progress without refreshing the page.
766 This interface makes it possible to exit the main import tab or the
767 Vandelay interface altogether and return at a later time to check on
768 import progress. It also allows users to start multiple imports at
769 the same time and follow the status of each in one interace.
772 Spine Label Sheet Printing
773 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++
775 Catalogers can now print spine labels onto 8 1/2 x 11 inch label sheets.
781 Patron Parent/Guardian Field
782 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
783 Patrons now have a new dedicated parent/guardian field. This field is
784 editable in the patron edit interface, displays in the patron
785 summary side bar on the browser client, and is search-able from the
786 patron search interface in the browser client.
790 In addition to the standard "show" and "suggest" visibility settings,
791 the new guardian field comes with a library setting
792 'ui.patron.edit.guardian_required_for_juv' ("GUI: Juvenile account
793 requires parent/guardian"). When this setting is applied, a value
794 will be required in the patron editor when the juvenile flag is active.
796 Allow Others to Use My Account (Privacy Waiver)
797 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
798 Patrons who wish to authorize other people to use their account may
799 now do so via My Account. In the Search and History Preferences tab
800 under Account Preferences, a new section labeled "Allow others to use
801 my account" allows patrons to enter a name and indicate that the
802 specified person is allowed to place holds, pickup holds, view
803 borrowing history, or check out items on their account. This
804 information is displayed to circulation staff in the patron account
805 summary in the web client. (Staff may also add, edit, and remove
806 entries via the patron editor.)
808 A new library setting, "Allow others to use patron account (privacy
809 waiver)," is used to enable or disable this feature.
816 Server and Booking Administration Moved To Angular
817 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
818 The Administration => Server Administration and
819 Administration => Booking Administration pages have been ported to
820 Angular using the new Angular grids. Entry points from both AngularJS
821 and Angular web clients point to the new interfaces.
823 Option to Enable Experimental Angular Staff Catalog
824 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
825 A new org unit setting labeled 'GUI: Enable Experimental Angular
826 Staff Catalog' (ui.staff.angular_catalog.enabled) has been added, allowing
827 sites to enable a menu option in the browser client for accessing
828 the experimental Angular staff catalog.
830 When set to true, a new entry in the navigation bar appears in the
831 Cataloging menu labled "Staff Catalog (Experimental)".
833 New Features (Since 3.2)
834 ++++++++++++++++++++++++
836 * Copy location filter
837 * Group formats and editions
842 * Record baskets and actions
843 * Record detail tabs/actions point to AngularJS versions where needed.
844 * Record detail View In Catalog button
851 View upcoming booking reservations in the OPAC
852 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
853 A new tab in the My Account section of the OPAC shows
854 patrons information about reservations on their account.
855 Here, patrons can check on upcoming reservations, as
856 well as reservations they currently have checked out.
858 Note: this interface pulls its timezone from the Library
859 Settings Editor. Make sure that you have a timezone
860 listed for your library in the Library Settings Editor
861 before using this feature.
863 Display UPC as Option for Public Catalog Advanced Search
864 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
865 The Numeric Search tab of the public catalog Advanced Search
866 now includes an option to search by UPC (Universal Product Code).
