All,

I created a new page on the wiki:

https://wiki.evergreen-ils.org/doku.php?id=dev:auxiliary_supplementary_code

I've seeded it with some links that I could remember (most of them are ours). Please amend/supplant with any and all links to other Evergreen-code!

I do like the idea of corralling all of these things into a single place on the internet. Github? These things get unorganized and slammed into a single repo (for me) and probably deserve their own repo. Wouldn't it be cool if we had a single repo with sub folders for each of the main ideas (import, export)?

But this page is the next best thing.

I can see some value in dropping them in a contrib repo or a contrib/ dir in the main repo; namely you always know where to go for the latest versions and where to submit improvements. I know there were at least 2-3 different versions of the CollectionHQ scripts around because at one point I customized some things for EGIN and I'm not sure if all of those changes made it back to the main repo. I also told CHQ "no" to a few requested changes for patron privacy reasons, which is an easier thing to do more consistently in a community repo.

The Wiki page would be the lowest hanging fruit and I suspect useful even if everything was gathered into one git repo to rule them all in and in the cloud bind them.  I can easily imagine not-git inclined people using the wiki to research and then point more technically inclined colleagues to.  This is an example of what I imagine for it https://wiki.evergreen-ils.org/doku.php?id=library:export_scripts

Does that negate the value of a unifying repo?  I don't think so.  But, at least at this moment, I don't have strong feelings about gathered versus dispersed. My internal question goes back to a question that was raised in IRC of, if they are worth gathering into a central repo for community use should they just go into the distribution?  If it's a more laissez faire approach is the wiki page enough?

    All,

    I brought up an agenda item at today's dev meeting. I was wondering
    where I should put my project.

    http://irc.evergreen-ils.org/evergreen/2022-12-13#i_517622

    And it brought up a greater discussion of having more of an
    "official"
    repo/place/something for "all things export".

    Does anyone have an opinion on where we as a community should be
    putting
    such things? I know there are several repos on Github, and some
    inside
    of sub-folders within various contrib repos.

    It's probably a tall order to get everyone to put this stuff in a
    single
    place, so, at the very least, we could probably use a wiki page with
    links and descriptions to all the places where all the useful
    code lives
