Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Mobile Version of the Evergreen OPAC

[Dan Scott]

Hi Amy:

One of the nice things about the TPAC is that it has exactly the same HTML
in mobile as in the desktop version.

The only difference is in the CSS, which changes how things are displayed
(and in the case of status, whether it is displayed), by checking the
screen width.

In this case, if you remove the following lines from style.css, the status
will be displayed on a mobile screen:

.result_holdings_table td:nth-child(4) {
display: none;
}

I have came up with an Evergreen template using bootstrap that makes the
OPAC alot more mobile friendly and have a version of it used at my library
.
This was brought about as a result of last year's polling at the Evergreen
conference for an updated and responsive look to the OPAC.
I plan on pushing this forward to a future release when I have a chance to
properly set up my dev environment.
It may be a touch out of date depending on which version you are running
but the bug (wishlist) item is here:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/1778972
It includes a link to the repo of the template created and a list of the
larger parts of the redesign. Hopefully, I can make it part of Evergreen
soon!

Amy,

There has been a lot of work done over the years to make the OPAC useful
on mobile devices.  Last time that I tried it, admittedly over 2 years
ago, it worked rather well on my Samsung S4.

I don't think anyone has actively kept up with it, but there are likely
some open Launchpad bugs about the OPAC on mobile devices.

HtH,
Jason

Hi Amy,

I don't know anything about a mobile version of the OPAC, but there are
mobile apps today that provide a better experience than the OPAC on a small
device.  You can try out the Hemlock Android app with Bibliomation at
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.kenstir.apps.hemlock.
Today there is no equivalent app for iOS; the apps for iOS are each
customized for a specific consortium and require a login.
