The web installer hasn't changed in a long time. It's time to fix it up a bit. :)
Proposed ideas for the web installer:
- have a web interface to generate translations at install time.
- create an alternate administrative user that is not the DB user for initial login.
- give option to define your first library as part of initial install
- give option to create (or install by default) a "staff" patron category
Nice, but not essential:
- Default "sets" - for example:
- single library
- multi-branch, independent (what preferences this flips tbd later)
- multi-branch, interdependent (ditto)
Possible preferences to ask about at install time:
- allowonshelfholds (Allow patrons to place holds on items that are currently available?)
- opacpublic (Would you like your OPAC to be public? If no, the OPAC will require a valid login to view.)
Possible structural changes:
- Do not allow the db user a log in to the intranet? (this has always seemed like a security risk to me)
