Hi Alexey,

I didn't get a chance to read through all the documentation links being shared thus far, but I can tell you that we are still using the exact same process for action_trigger_runner.pl since 2.0. There's a few new options that we're still experimenting with, such as granularity and processing in parallel, but largely our nightly processes have gone unchanged.

Presently we chose to operate our cronjobs similarly to how they were established in crontab.example that's included with the Evergreen code with some adjustments based on our own desired operating schedule.

Since nothing significant has changed though, I would assume that information in older 2.0 docs are likely still valuable.

As for why it's "missing" from 2.1/2.2, I'm unclear on how DIG decides to port documentation forward, but that seems like a good question to have DIG members respond to.

The http://open-ils.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=evergreen-user:action_trigger page 
seems to describe how the process works and what the fields in the client mean 
when setting up action triggers. From that page and other documentation I 
gather that active triggers happen automatically and passive triggers need a 
cron job. Ok.

My question is still whether or not 
http://docs.evergreen-ils.org/2.0/draft/html/ProcessingActionTriggers.html is 
relevant in current versions, or if this process has been replaced with other 
better ways of doing this.  Is it a problem of missing documentation for this 
section in 2.1 and 2.2?  Or was the section removed from documentation because 
the feature is obsolete or no longer needed or not recommended?

If you are a sysadmin, are you using action_trigger_runner.pl or what other 
scripts as cron jobs for things like overdues, etc.?

Thanks.

David, yes, I read through it.  I think I am still missing something though.

Alexey,
Did you see this one:
http://open-ils.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=evergreen-user:action_trigger

I recently made updates to that page while working with A/T

Hello, everybody.

In Evergreen documentation for versions 1.6 and 2.0 I can locate the section on 
Processing Action Triggers [1].

I can't seem to find the equivalent section in documentation for versions 2.1 
and 2.2. I am working with 2.2.

Is the information [1] still relevant?  Or are action triggers processed 
differently these days?

Any help is welcome, including in the form of a link to a piece of 
documentation or a list thread I may have overlooked when searching for 
information on this topic.

Thanks!
