Tip: if you want to know which scripts/modules are using a module such as C4::Auth, use the following command line from your koha checkout directory:

When a Koha script runs, it makes use of a certain number of things:
These things make up the context in which the script runs.
This module takes care of setting up the context for a script: figuring out which configuration file to load, and loading it, opening a connection to the right database, and so forth.
Most scripts will only use one context. They can simply have
use C4::Context;
at the top.
Other scripts may need to use several contexts. For instance, if a library has two databases, one for a certain collection, and the other for everything else, it might be necessary for a script to use two different contexts to search both databases. Such scripts should use the &set_context and &restore_context functions, below.
By default, C4::Context reads the configuration from /etc/koha.conf. This may be overridden by setting the $KOHA_CONF environment variable to the pathname of a configuration file to use.
