NAME

nl-sync-from-koha.pl - Sync patrons from Koha to the Norwegian national patron database (NL).

SYNOPSIS

 perl nl-sync-from-koha.pl -v --run

ACTIONS

Find local patrons that have been changed and need to be sent upstream to NL. These patrons will be distinguished by two borrower attributes:

The "nlstatus" attribute will have a value of "needsync". (Which means that the patron has been changed in Koha, but not yet successfully synced upstream.)
The "nlsync" attribute will have a value of 1. (Which means that this patron has accepted to be synced with NL, as opposed to a value of 0 which would indicate that the patron has asked not to be synced with NL.)

STEPS

This script performs the following steps:

Check sysprefs

Check that the necessary sysprefs are set before proceeding.

Find patrons that need to be synced

Patrons with either of these statuses:

edited
new
deleted

Summarize if verbose mode is enabled

Specify -v on the command line to get a summary of the syncing operations.

OPTIONS

-r, --run: Actually carry out syncing operations. Without this option, the script will only report what it would have done, but not change any data, locally or remotely.
-v --verbose: Report on the progress of the script.
-d --debug: Even more output.
-h, -?, --help: Prints this help message and exits.
