The purpose of this script was to load the relevant Koha lib for the
different scripts (installation, cronjob, CLI, etc.)
However it is not used consistently and we prefer to rely on PERL5LIB.
From bug 28617 comment 6 from Galen:
"""
Time marches on, and one of the motivations for having kohalib.pl - making
it possible to install Koha without setting a single environment variable -
has been obviated by the vast improvements in the ease of installing Koha.
Consequently, I think kohalib.pl can go away.
"""
Test plan:
confirm that the changes make sense and that kohalib.pl can be removed
safely.

It would be useful to send most of the process_message_queue.pl script parameters to any plugin before_send_messages hooks. For example, the Twilio Voice plugin uses before_send_messages to send phone messages, but if the script is called with "-t email", it doesn't know and will make phone calls! If that info were passed in, the plugin could be made aware of it and only make calls if no "-t" or a "-t phone" were set in the parameters.
Test Plan:
1) Apply this patch
2) Install Kitchen Sink plugin v2.2.0 or later
https://github.com/bywatersolutions/dev-koha-plugin-kitchen-sink/releases/download/v2.2.0/dev-koha-plugin-kitchen-sink-2.2.0.kpz
3) Run misc/cronjobs/process_message_queue.pl with any or all non-email
related paramters
4) Note the plugin output shows the parameters were passed to the plugin

On bug 17591 we discovered that there was something weird going on with
the way we export and use subroutines/modules.
This patch tries to standardize our EXPORT to use EXPORT_OK only.
That way we will need to explicitely define the subroutine we want to
use from a module.
This patch is a squashed version of:
Bug 17600: After export.pl
Bug 17600: After perlimport
Bug 17600: Manual changes
Bug 17600: Other manual changes after second perlimports run
Bug 17600: Fix tests
And a lot of other manual changes.
export.pl is a dirty script that can be found on bug 17600.
"perlimport" is:
git clone https://github.com/oalders/App-perlimports.git
cd App-perlimports/
cpanm --installdeps .
export PERL5LIB="$PERL5LIB:/kohadevbox/koha/App-perlimports/lib"
find . \( -name "*.pl" -o -name "*.pm" \) -exec perl App-perlimports/script/perlimports --inplace-edit --no-preserve-unused --filename {} \;
The ideas of this patch are to:
* use EXPORT_OK instead of EXPORT
* perltidy the EXPORT_OK list
* remove '&' before the subroutine names
* remove some uneeded use statements
* explicitely import the subroutines we need within the controllers or
modules
Note that the private subroutines (starting with _) should not be
exported (and not used from outside of the module except from tests).
EXPORT vs EXPORT_OK (from
https://www.thegeekstuff.com/2010/06/perl-exporter-examples/)
"""
Export allows to export the functions and variables of modules to user’s namespace using the standard import method. This way, we don’t need to create the objects for the modules to access it’s members.
@EXPORT and @EXPORT_OK are the two main variables used during export operation.
@EXPORT contains list of symbols (subroutines and variables) of the module to be exported into the caller namespace.
@EXPORT_OK does export of symbols on demand basis.
"""
If this patch caused a conflict with a patch you wrote prior to its
push:
* Make sure you are not reintroducing a "use" statement that has been
removed
* "$subroutine" is not exported by the C4::$MODULE module
means that you need to add the subroutine to the @EXPORT_OK list
* Bareword "$subroutine" not allowed while "strict subs"
means that you didn't imported the subroutine from the module:
- use $MODULE qw( $subroutine list );
You can also use the fully qualified namespace: C4::$MODULE::$subroutine

The message queue processor has a try/catch block, but does not have a 'use Try::Tiny' line. Because of this the following error ocurrs if an instance has any plugins installed that use the before_send_messages hook:
Can't locate object method "catch" via package "1" (perhaps you forgot to load "1"?) at /usr/share/koha/bin/cronjobs/process_message_queue.pl line 86.
Test Plan:
1) Install a plugin that uses the before_send_messages hook
2) Run the message queue processor
3) Note the error message
4) Apply this patch
5) Run the message queue processor again
6) No error!

The message_queue.pl currently will send all the messages queued up. It would be nice to have some control over which messages are to be sent.
Example: We have libraries who only wanted to send 'hold notices' but not overdue, advance notice, etc during the covid-19 quarantine. And some that were the opposite - turn off hold notices, but send other generated notices.
Test Plan:
1) Apply this patch
2) Enqueue some messages with different letter codes
3) Run process_message_queue.pl with the new -c parameter using one of the letter codes enqueued
4) Note that only the messages with the selected code were processed!

The help for this script says:
-t --type: If supplied, only processes this type of message ( email, sms )
Currently, the type argument is set up wrong, so it does not look
for an argument. This patch fixes that.
To test, run this command (should work in kohadevbox) or something
similar:
$ sudo koha-shell -c "perl \
/home/vagrant/kohaclone/misc/cronjobs/process_message_queue.pl -v \
--type=sms" kohadev
This should give the following error: "Option type does not take an argument".
Apply the patch and run the same command again. This should not give an
error.

It would be nice to allow emails to be sent overnight, but limit the sending of SMS messages to hours when people are awake. Adding a type limit to process_message_queue.pl would allow this to be accomplished easily.

Having the ability to limit the number of messages sent by process_message_queue.pl on a single run would be very useful for controlling home many messages are sent at a given time. This can help prevent too many messages being sent out at once and getting flagged as a spammer.
Test Plan:
1) Apply this patch
2) Generate some number of messages in the message queue
3) Run process_message_queue.pl with the new --limit option,
set limit to a number smaller than the number of pending messages
4) After the script has run, check the database and note that only
a number of pending messages were sent, and that the remaining amount
of pending messages is the original amount less the number specified
as the limit

I've added methods to to C4::Letters to manage the database table
message_queue. This will let us keep track of messages sent
via email, sms, and rss to patrons. That way, we can show the history,
deal with failures, and reconstruct an RSS feed when needed.
misc/cronjobs/overduenotics.pl has been added. It prepares advance notices
and item due notices and stages messages to be sent in the message_queue
table.
C4::Overdues::Getoverdues now takes two optional arguments to tell it how
old of overdues to fetch.
Also, a C4::Circualtion::getUpcomingDueIssues method was added that
advance_notices.pl uses.
misc/cronjobs/process_message_queue.pl has been added. It sends the email
or SMS messages out of the message queue.
The C4::SMS module didn't work at all, and it has been rebuilt to use
an external perl module from CPAN, SMS::Send.
