Can you get all the details you currently get from circ-status from the output in record/.../items?view=full ? I never used the X server version and I don't find things missing. We have used Vaclav's Aleph_helper in order to map between the item process status codes and what they would mean in terms of functionality (can/can't place hold/renew/etc) You can see examples here for cases like loaned items or special statuses http://lib-phds1.weizmann.ac.il/vufind/Record/000000021 http://lib-phds1.weizmann.ac.il/vufind/Record/000000007 -----Original Message----- From: Seaman, Graham [mailto:Gra...@rh...] Sent: Thursday, June 09, 2011 2:05 PM To: Tulie Amichal; Alan Rykhus; vuf...@li... Subject: RE: [VuFind-Tech] aleph restful server & addRawPostData Doh (what's the smiley for embarassment?). I'd been searching through the individual xml fields, and not looked at the href itself. At the moment I use the X-server circ-status call to implement the Driver getStatus() function, and that returns the barcode, so I can use the barcode to identify the right item from the record/.../items?view=full call and so get the item ID for making holds that way. It does mean an extra call (which it sounds like you may be avoiding - I'll have to see if I can refactor my driver a bit to consolidate this) That really did help, Graham -----Original Message----- From: Tulie Amichal [mailto:tu...@ma...] Sent: 09 June 2011 10:37 To: Alan Rykhus; vuf...@li... Subject: Re: [VuFind-Tech] aleph restful server & addRawPostData Maybe Im getting this wrong but the ID that you need to send as the item ID to place a hold is the ID you get in the response for the request /rest-dlf/record/XXX01000000007/items?view=full at the end of the href attribute of the item tag. I see that in my driver this is passed in the barcode parameter (as it was already there) Im not sure if the code is mine or copied from Vaclav, as my Driver and related customization is a fork of his.

Subject: Re: [VuFind-Tech] aleph restful server & addRawPostData Hello Graham, In looking at the documentation and with the experimentation I've done, you can create title level holds without knowing the Z30_DOC_NUMBER. Or is your Aleph setup such that you have multiple sub-libraries in an ADM and you want your holds item specific? al On Wed, 2011-06-08 at 12:07 +0000, Seaman, Graham wrote: > Except that - the Aleph RESTful server needs the z30-doc-number for > each item to actually make the hold, and there doesn't seem to be a > REST call which provides that (all the item status calls give me the > item barcode, which is different).
