Bug ID: 20269
Summary: Allow selecting default collate rule
Change sponsored?: ---
Product: Koha
Version: master
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P5 - low
Component: Database
Assignee: koha-bugs@lists.koha-community.org
Reporter: pasi.kalli...@joensuu.fi
QA Contact: testo...@bugs.koha-community.org
For some languages, the default collate rule set in kohastructure.sql,
utf8_unicode_ci, doesn't work correctly.
For example, Finnish alphabet expects the alphabet to sort abc...xyzåäö, but
the unicode_ci rule doesn't handle the åäö right. Instead, we need to use the
swedish_ci rule.
It would be nice to be able to define the default collate rule during install.
Problem can be seen for example when you go catalogue a new record and have
frameworks starting with 'ä' or 'ö', those will sort incorrectly.
On the database, you can test this with:
insert into biblio_framework (frameworkcode, frameworktext) values ('TEST',
'Äänikirja');
-- Note where the 'Äänikirja' is located
select * from biblio_framework order by frameworktext collate utf8_unicode_ci;
-- And then the correct order, with 'Äänikirja' last:
select * from biblio_framework order by frameworktext collate utf8_swedish_ci;
