20Early implementers requirementsTod

Report from Tod on whether any early implementers need to do a gap load in their migration to Folio:

Early Implementer meeting notes with discussion details – see "Survey about migration scenarios - "Big Bang" vs. "Trickle" Migration plans"

General discussion about: 2 phase migration...e.g. bib records first...and frozen, are API deletes really needed (for migration)? ...is gap loading needed?  The 'MVP' may require a larger downtime during migration in the spirit of a true MVP.  Acceptable since it is an MVP?

Mention of a requirement for sync. between a union catalog and FOLIO and union catalog will be integrated as a knowledge base (Ingolf)  – similar to what Chalmers is doing.  There may be some potential for re-use of the Chalmers functionality.  Chalmers use case is exchanging 'inventory' records.

35Data LoaderJon

Jon may give us a brief update on improvements to the data loader that he showed us previously.

Improvements to the general data loader (the updated version is on github - Jon will post a link in slack):

-save -validate -force -all -- will print out all of the validation errors....

-save flag with the new -whatif flag will just validate data and won't save to file

Jon is working on a different data loader that:

-Loads data directly from relational database

sub-tables (like email, phones addresses - for organizations) are loaded into hash tables ...then the main loop builds everything up into an object graph

currently working for smaller objects like organizations

- the goal is to generate templates

- he wants to get the code to the point where all you have to do is replace the default SQL queries


If there is interest he'll demo it in a few weeks
