Have a look here: https://github.com/paulscherrerinstitute/py_elog

I haven't tried it myself, but it should allow you to add, reply, edit, delete elog entries from python (>= 3.5) via the http elog interface. It's an anaconda package.

There are two options

• Wrap the "elog" command line tool 
• Use "curl". Ther is a PycURL library http://pycurl.io/docs/latest/ which can be used, so you don't have to call any command line tool. The usage of curl is described in elog:68597

Dear elog community,

I wonder whether there is a python3 api or lib to generate and append entries (and attachments) to the logbook using scripts.
However, so far I did not find anything...

At the moment I am thinking about wrapping the "elog" command line tool.

Is there something usable already out there?

Thanks and regards
Markus

Can you please make a change to have the Quick Filter ComboBox controls reference the field type for ordering purposes?

For example, if attribute Lot Number is Type Numeric then the ComboBox should be listed in numerical order instead of alphanumeric (eg: 1,2,3,11,21 vs 1,11,2,21,3).

Best Regards.

Safety is getting more and more an issue these days. Normal browsers don't accept self-signed certificates any more. One possibility is to get a certificate from https://letsencrypt.org/

Hello there,

Can anyone point out to me how I can avoid the unsafe browsing when accessing our local ELOG?  
Browsing with chrome and always getting the unsafe browsing page. One has to go through the advanced
button to continue ...

I once had my setup with SSL certificate (local signed, not through the CA) but I somehow cannot get it
to work anymore.   Just create a local certificate and copy the certificates to all browsers that access the ELOG site, no?

Anyway, a small guide would be great.

Hi all,

Some elog users of our site(CSNS) mentioned some advice about attachment:

1.Can imagemagick create thumbnail for .bmp file now?

2.Can re-sort the attachments after attachments uploaded by dragging or clicking up/down arrow or anything except deleting and re-upload attachment again?

3.Can add some description under the thumbnail of uploaded attachment? I've suggested them adding the description to the name of attchment or writing the detail in the text area. They are seem not very satisfied with this solution.

Any advice and suggestion will be appreciated.

Cheers
