Re: [VuFind-General] How to use REST-DLF in vufind?

[Demian K. <dem...@vi...>]

An update on the hold request bug you mentioned - I see that someone has opened a JIRA ticket explaining the solution:
http://vufind.org/jira/browse/VUFIND-363
I have committed this fix to the trunk.  However, it doesn't change the fact that the hold code seems to be incomplete - the values used in the theme do not match the values expected by the back-end code, and there is a call to a Javascript function that does not actually exist.  There is not a simple fix to this problem - I think the hold code needs to be significantly rewritten.  Fortunately, Luke O'Sullivan's code should address all of the problems here.  When he returns from vacation, I will talk to him again about getting these improvements incorporated into mainstream VuFind.
In the meantime, sorry for the inconvenience - my local VuFind installation doesn't support placing holds, so I haven't been able to thoroughly test this code in the past!

Subject: [VuFind-General] How to use REST-DLF in vufind?

Hello,

I'm now implementing Vufind in the library.
We have Aleph ILS.
I understand that for some actions the Aleph X service is not good enough.
I heard of REST-DLF.
Can any one tell me how to implement it?

I have also the following 2 related problems:

1. I'm unable to create a hold request/recall from Vufind.
I always receive the following error: Cannot find record

2. In the user profile (Your Profile) I receive address data but not first and last name of the patron. Why? What do I need to do to see the first and last name too?


Thank you very much,
Maya
