This patch adds an out-of-band migration script to convert legacy
CIRCULATION ISSUE action logs from the old itemnumber-only format
to the new consistent JSON format.
The script:
- Finds all CIRCULATION ISSUE logs where info is just an itemnumber
- Converts them to JSON format with the standard structure
- Attempts to recover issue_id and branchcode from old_issues/issues
- Runs in dry-run mode by default (--commit flag to actually update)
- Processes in batches to handle large databases safely
- Includes verbose mode for detailed output
Usage:
perl misc/maintenance/migrate_action_logs_to_json.pl --help
perl misc/maintenance/migrate_action_logs_to_json.pl --verbose
perl misc/maintenance/migrate_action_logs_to_json.pl --commit
This is designed as an out-of-band maintenance script rather than
an atomic update because:
1. May be expensive on large databases with many log entries
2. Migration is optional - display code handles both formats
3. Can be run during off-peak hours at admin's discretion
