Improved detection of course reserves records in III importer (importing the short course reserves records clutters the catalog with unfindable junk, but if people do full records for reserves, those will get imported). Added code to ingore catalog entries when displaying front page content and feeds.

The server I have WordPress on uses IIS (not Apache). Do I have to add Apache in order to use Scriblio?
August 27th, 2007 at 3:53 pm
@Virginia:
There’s code in Scriblio now that’s written to require Apache on a unix-like OS. If you’re up for it you can try it and send me the patches to make it work on IIS/Windows.
August 28th, 2007 at 7:43 pm
All the installation pieces worked fine. Now my main bit of ignorance. “Import your catalog”. How do I do that from a standard integrated library system (Innovative Interfaces)? Is there a scalability limit?
Thanks in advance
August 30th, 2007 at 6:10 am
@Glenn:
Great! We use III as the ILS at my library, so I’ve written an importer for it. Here are the _very_ abbreviated instructions:
In the admin panel, go to the Options > Scriblio tab and click on the Import link for the III Web Importer (in a section labeled Harvest near the bottom of the screen).
The four form fields aren’t labeled (yet), but they do have example inputs. In order, they’re (1) the hostname of your III system, (2) the starting bib number to import (or only bibn if you’re doing just one), (3) the ending bibn, and (4) a prefix to help identify the source of these records from inside Scriblio.
Pick a range and click Go. The records don’t go immediately into Scrib, but into a “harvest table” (importing the catalog to the live DB can really kill performance). So once that’s done, click the Import Harvested Data link in the Commands section. You’ll see some feedback about the process and you’ll then be able to view and search those records. (Note: the import harvest code loads records one-by-one and is ripe for some optimization.)
About that prefix: Scrib can have any number of different catalogs loaded (currently limited only by the need for a alphanumeric prefix, so you can have up to 1,296 datasources/catalogs/etc). But to show current availability, prevent duplicates, and other things, Scrib needs to be able to identify the specific record in the specific system that it came from. The specifics of this will evolve, I’m sure, but for now Scrib tracks the “source_id” of each record, which for a III system is the bibn with that two-letter prefix attached to it.
Example: you’ve got two III systems you’re importing records from, plus the contents of your A to Z list (I don’t have an importer for that written, but it seems useful). There’s nothing to prevent the numbering systems in those three sources from overlapping, and it might be likely on the III systems. So, when importing the records you assign “bb” to the first III system, “gb” to the second, and “az” to the a to z list.

Casey,
Great looking work. There appears to be a problem with the starter content, though. Although all of it gets imported into the database, only the Harry Potter series shows up, and it seems to spit out code on the last book.
Thanks for all you’ve done with this,
Jason

@Jason Fowler:
You pinpointed another hole in the documentation.
Catalog records in Scriblio are in the posts table as post_type = “scrib” and are excluded from most normal WP operations. They don’t appear on the front page (a small bit of hacking would fix that, if you wanted), but they do appear in three special contexts: search, browse, and when viewing a single record.
Search is easy, just search. Same thing with viewing a single record, though you’ve gotta find the record first. Browse is a little more complex.
Scriblio lets you browse a list of recently cataloged items with all the facets, but it needs to have a place to, well, plug in. In all my implementations so far I’ve set it so that you can go to site_root/browse/ to get that list, but you can put it anywhere. Here’s how:
Create a Page, any page. You can call it anything, but the “page slug” is what will form the base URL to the browse list. Now go to the Options > Scriblio tab and chose that page as the “Browse base” and click the update button.
Now, any time you view that page you’ll actually be browsing your catalog.
RE the junk-looking data: tags are stored in the post content. They probably should be removed from the display, but that’s not happening. Thing is, we’ll need to rework a lot of Scrib to support WP2.3 (because of the addition of native tag support), so I’m hoping to solve the problem that way.
September 7th, 2007 at 8:57 am
Casey,
Thanks for that explanation. That did the trick.

Note, though, that the update button in the Scriblio tab doesn’t appear if you’re using Firefox. That one got me for awhile; switched to Safari and Joy.
September 12th, 2007 at 4:19 pm
Hi Casey,
Just go around to trying your III import instructions. Unfortunately after going through the steps and entering a single bib number we know exists in our catalog after I click Go nothing shows up and when I click Import Harvested Data it says there is no data to import. Any ideas on what might be wrong?
Thanks in advance.
September 13th, 2007 at 8:04 am
@Glenn:
You might want to confirm that any errors will be displayed on screen (good during development, bad in production). Check display_errors and error_reporting in your php.ini.
I mention errors because the III importer uses a function that isn’t compiled into PHP by default: mb_convert_encoding. I recently tried my first import on the Lamson catalog since the go live and discovered the production server doesn’t have that function (or any of the multibyte string functions). I’m fearing that will be a common error, but the choice is to either install the function or remove it (and deal with non-UTF8 encoded characters).
Another thing to do is uncomment some of the echos and print_rs in III.php to see the progress of things. The importers are the least developed part of the code, and while they work for me, there are probably a lot of ways they can fail.

Are there any plans for a hosted version in the near future? This sounds interesting, but we don’t have the resources to install and maintain on a local server.

@ Eric Lease Morgan:
That’s a big problem with Scriblio and 2.3 (though it may be a problem with the most recent dot release too). If things go well I’ll have a 2.3 compatible version I can post to the repository this weekend.
On the other hand, there are some other issues that can cause problems. Check your PHP version (requires 5.x+).

Hi there, my local system is Apach 2.23, PHP 5.2.0, MySQL 5.0.27,but when I active the Scriblio plugin, it came a database error said ” [You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'GROUP BY tag_type' at line 1]
SELECT tag_type FROM GROUP BY tag_type”
what about this, guy?
thanks, Andor

Hi.
I’m getting the same error as Andor:
WordPress database error: [You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'GROUP BY tag_type' at line 1]
SELECT tag_type FROM GROUP BY tag_type
any suggestions? Should I try to clear my database or something? Could it be related to mod_rewrite?
Thanks!
October 18th, 2007 at 2:29 pm
@Andor and torrence:
It looks like the table name is missing from the SQL statement, and that’s likely because the bSuite Tags plugin isn’t loaded (for those looking at the code, the table name is coming from $btaggy->meta_table , where $btaggy is the bSuite Tags object). At least, that’s what it should be, though some of the public revisions had some errors.
Lichen’s post on the installation might help, though I should also say the WordPress 2.3 version will do away with all of that and because of the number of changes, it might be easier to wait a few more days than to try and complete the installation of the old code and then upgrade.
