VuFind Developers Call Minutes: April 1, 2014

Attending: Filipe Bento, Chris Hallberg, Demian Katz

Agenda

1. Development Updates

JIRA Tickets

  • VUFIND-262 - This ticket has been closed now that VuFind's Solr spelling processing logic has full test coverage.
  • VUFIND-442 - This ticket suggested providing sample code for building a custom compiled SolrMarc indexer, but the new Mixin functionality makes such a solution unnecessary. Demian has added some better Mixin documentation and closed the ticket.
  • VUFIND-811 - The reading level index scripts from this ticket have been committed to SolrMarc; the rest is duplicated by VUFIND-919, so this is now closed.
  • VUFIND-827 - The cover loader now supports ISSNs, with support implemented for Syndetics.
  • VUFIND-848 - Demian implemented better support for title highlighting in the Solr module (to solve the problem of snippets causing the beginnings of titles to be removed).
  • VUFIND-966 - This ticket suggests cleaning up controllers to eliminate direct service manager access.
  • VUFIND-967 - Chris opened this ticket to track improvements to tablet mode in the Bootstrap theme (previously, tablets went to “phone mode” which looked strange on the larger displays); he has made some changes but is open to further improvements.
  • VUFIND-968 - This ticket tracks a problem with grid view and combined view not playing well together. It is not yet resolved.
  • VUFIND-969 - This ticket tracks a requested feature to load ALL facet values in the side facet area for selected fields.

Pull Requests

  • #114 - This PR contains work in progress on ReCaptcha support (see also VUFIND-313).
  • #115 - This PR contains work in progress on expanded range facet support (see also VUFIND-919).
  • #120 - This PR contains work in progress on configurable social features (i.e. disable tags/comments/favorites) (see also VUFIND-135).
  • #123 - This PR contains work in progress on password recovery (see also VUFIND-272).
  • #125 - This PR contains work in progress on expanded holds functionality.

Several additional PRs have been opened and merged recently resolving various small bugs (mostly in the Bootstrap theme). Most serious: #124, which fixes a problem with “cancel selected holds” in the Blueprint theme.
