Koha & EDS Integration without the plugin

If you'd like to have the dropdown search option for EDS, without the actual plugin you can add the below code to OPACUserJS setting with Koha.

Note: The plugin should not be installed if you are using this script!

"EDS Dropdown Text": The text for the EDS option in the dropdown.

"EDS Default": Can be true or false. Defines whether EDS is the default option in the search dropdown.

"EDS URL": Your EDS access URL. Don't forget to replace the placeholder values in edsSettings -> EDS URL your account and access details

var  edsSettings = {
    "EDS Dropdown Text": "Discovery",
    "EDS URL": "https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?authtype=__AUTHTYPE__&custid=__CUSTID__&groupid=__GROUP__&profile=__PROFILE__",
    "EDS Default": true
}

var selectE,selectL="beforeEnd";edsSettings["EDS Default"]&&(selectL="afterBegin"),document.querySelector("#searchform")&&((selectE=document.querySelector("#searchform select[name='idx']")).insertAdjacentHTML(selectL,'<option value="_eds">'+edsSettings["EDS Dropdown Text"]+"</option>"),document.querySelector("body#opac-main")&&(selectE.value="_eds"),document.querySelector("#searchform").onsubmit=function(e){"_eds"==selectE.value&&(e.preventDefault(),window.location=edsSettings["EDS URL"]+"&direct=true&bquery="+encodeURIComponent(document.querySelector("#searchform input[name='q']").value))});
