I compiled one (just for you :))), available at

http://midas.psi.ch/elog/download/tar/elogd-snapshot.gz

Unzip it and rename it to "elogd". But if you have problems with missing shared C
libraries, I cannot guarantee that it works. In that case you have to wait for the next
official release.

Hi Stefan,

It has a bug. The filter will fail on the initial page of the logbook. 

example,

on http://10.10.10.10:10/mylogbook/  
when select category filter the system will return
      http://10.10.10.10:10/myylogbook/&category=hardware which is bad

on http://10.10.10.10:10/mylogbook/page or page1/page2 etc..other then the initial page,
when select category filter the system return the correct result.
      http://10.10.10.10:10/mylogbook/page?category=hardware.

I have not tested 2.5.3.

nait.

You should, it has been fixed in 2.5.3 :-)))

Usual problem for me. There is no elogd binary file in the tar.gz file. 
I remember you used to include it. :)

After going through the code of the Python API (https://github.com/paulscherrerinstitute/py_elog/blob/master/elog/logbook.py) I tried the following:
$ python3
>>> from passlib.hash import sha256_crypt
>>> sha256_crypt.hash( 'foobaa', salt='', rounds=5000)[4:]
'waa2sT6eBt.qk0wsucX/nxU5GcqffqlEx6ja5Lg1OR5'
>>> from datetime import datetime
>>> datetime.now().timestamp()
1599039390.964989
$ curl -F cmd=Submit -F exp=labor -F unm=florian -F upwd='waa2sT6eBt.qk0wsucX/nxU5GcqffqlEx6ja5Lg1OR5' -F Encoding=plain -F When=1599039390.964989 -F Author=curl -F Subject="curl test" -F Category=General -F Type=Diary -F Text="foo baa" http://localhost:8080/test/

This worked. It seems to me, that the "-u" option from Curl is not working for elog.

Cheers,
Florian

Hey,

i'm trying to use curl to post new entries to our logbook as described here: https://elog.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/68597.
The Elog is installed via the Deban package on Buster.
I created a test logbook with attributes Author, Type, Category and Subject.

curl -u florian:foobaa -F cmd=Submit -F Author=Florian -F Type=Diary -F Category=General -F Subject="testing curl" -F Text="foo baa" http://localhost:8080/test

As you can see, curl only prints the login page of the logbook and no new entry has been created. Any suggestions what might go worng here?

Regards,
Florian

This is correct. The elogd daemon needs username and password in parameters "unm" and "upwd". The password must be SHA256 encoded, so best is to grab it from the password file. This way one does not have to send clear text passwords over the network.
