Hi all,

I would like to create a new entry remotely.

I would like that when the macro run, the macro automatically create a new entry in my Elog.

I was searching, but i don't saw any thing about this.

Is possible to do a new entry remotely?

Thanks for all.

Use the "elog" command line utility as described here under tips & tricks: http://midas.psi.ch/elog/userguide.html

 I would like to put between two entries a new entry.

My Users forgot to put a entry, and now they would like to put a new entry between olders entries.

For Example:

We have 10 entries order by Id:

300

301

302

...

They want to put between the entry 300 and 301 a new entry.

Is possible to do this feature?

Thanks! 

There is nothing within elog itself to insert entry 310 between 300 and 301.  If you allow branching in your logbook. make a second reply to entry 300, and add in the missing details.  That entry will always be there as a reply to 300, but not obviously between 300 and 301.

From this point, any way to improve matters will require editing of the log files (default location /usr/local/elog/logbooks).  I should warn that editing these files can cause problems, including elog to crash, and spotting your error can take a lot of effort.  I speak from experience. I suggest that you have a look at a few entries, the layout of the entries etc first, and if you're still up for it I'll give a quick spin on how to improve the tidyness of how your entires look with 310 inserted between 300 and 301.

I should add what I would write only applies for certain for linux users, as it is my OS of choice.

You are using the entry ID to sort your entries: there is no good way to insert a new entry ID, like 300.5

But you could sort your entries by other means, that allows you to insert entries later between existing entries.

I use for example a "when" attribute of type datetime. Here's an excerpt from the relevant part of my config file:

dear stefan

Can you please be a bit more specific? Do you mean the web site to download elog? Or is it some functionality of elog?

Thank you.
