So, as far as I know that ROptions and IOptions doesn't support conditional attributes.

I think what you suggest is a nice idea. An alternative way is putting Category attribute before Icon attribute and adding a tooltip to Icon attribute. However, I think your advice is better. Thanks!

Cheers

I think the proper solution would be to remove the icon selection field from the input form:

Show Attributes Edit = Author, Author Email, Category, System, Subject

The user would then only be able to edit the Category, the Icon would always be set accordingly. I would think that this would be the appropriate behaviour.

Cheers, Andreas

What I mean is that, when I select a catagory, the icon will change. If I change the icon, I need the catagory change too. 

Stefan Ritt wrote:

If you select a (different) category, the current icon setting simply gets overwritten, what ever it was before.

Xuan Wu wrote:

Sorry for my carelessness. What you said is definitely right. I just wonder how can Icon and Catagory change simultaneously whatever which one be selected first.

Stefan Ritt wrote:

The example I gave you worked for me, I actually tested it. Please note that it contains

Options Category = ...

and not

ROptions Category = ...

Thanks for your quick reply! I just test what you suggested, even I test {1} Preset on edit Icon = icon1.gif, they both didn't work.

Stefan Ritt wrote:

You can do that with conditional attributes (see documentation):

 

Attributes = Author, Author Email, Icon, Category, System, Subject
Options Category = Shift Summary{1}, Report{2}, Reply{3}, Fault{4}, Issue{5}, Resolved{6}, Maintenance{7}
IOptions Icon = icon1.gif, elc_list.png, icon3.gif, icon8.gif, icon4.gif, icon14.gif, elc_anchor.png

{1} Preset Icon = icon1.gif
{2} Preset Icon = elc_list.png
{3} Preset Icon = icon3.gif
{4} Preset Icon = icon8.gif
{5} Preset Icon = icon4.gif
{6} Preset Icon = icon14.gif
{7} Preset Icon = elc_anchor.gif

Icon comment icon1.gif = Shift Summary
Icon comment icon3.gif = Reply
Icon comment icon4.gif = Issue
Icon comment icon8.gif = Fault
Icon comment icon14.gif = Resolved
Icon comment elc_list.png = Report
Icon comment elc_anchor.png = Maintenance

Hi all,

I have two attributes defined like following

Attributes = Author, Author Email, Icon, Category, System, Subject

ROptions Category = Shift Summary, Report, Reply, Fault, Issue, Resolved, Maintenance

IOptions Icon = icon1.gif, elc_list.png, icon3.gif, icon8.gif, icon4.gif, icon14.gif, elc_anchor.png

Icon comment icon1.gif = Shift Summary
Icon comment icon3.gif = Reply
Icon comment icon4.gif = Issue
Icon comment icon8.gif = Fault
Icon comment icon14.gif = Resolved
Icon comment elc_list.png = Report
Icon comment elc_anchor.png = Maintenance

When the Shift Summary category being selected, I wish the icon1.gif Icon being selected automaticlly, as well as when icon8.gif being selected, Fault category be selected. How can I get this? Any advice or suggestions will be appreciated.

Cheers,

Xuan

Dear Hien,

your problem is more general the question, how to get the elog to the network.

You have to open the port on your system to the network.
I would suggest to google "open port for webserver on windows".
As right now I would just do the same and follow a tutorial.
A remark here: elog by default runs at port 8080, if you haven't changed this, this is the port you should be opening to the network.

If the elog can be accessed in the local network and you want to open it to the whole internet,
then you need to configure your router/gateway/(company) firewall to allow forwarding of the port of the elog.
I can't give you tips here, at this is very user specific.

An other remark, i would suggest (for a productive environment) to use user authentication in the elog to restrict access.
If you do this, then you also should use https reverse proxy or have a read in the SSL section of the elog documentation.
As http only would transmit the credentials in plain text.

I hope, I could give you a route, what your next steps could be.
Best wishes,
Sebastian

Hello Hien,

If you are sharing ELOG with users on the same network, here's something you can try.  First, on the machine running ELOG, you need to find the "Computer name".   To do this, locate "This PC", and right click it to get to "Properties" in the drop-down menu.  You need to jot down the "Computer name".  Now, users on the same network should be able to view ELOG by entering the following:

http://computer-name:(port number)

If you are using port 80 (instead of the default 8080) for ELOG, then there is no need to enter the port number.

Give that a try -- that is working well for us.

Cheers!
Frank

Dear colleagues,
I tried to get an Subst <attrib> = $shell(<command>) to work and put this into a Preset text line, like e.g.:
Attributes = subject, ... 
Options <name> = test{1}, ...  
Subst myvar = $shell(dir) 
{1} Preset subject = Test 
{1} Preset text = $myvar 

Which results in an ELOG-entry having printed "$myvar" in its body instead of the expected substitution. Changing the Subst command to: "Subst myvar = $host" or even to "Subst myvar = Test" also resulted in printing just the string "$myvar" into the submitted Elog-entry. - What am I doing wrong?

What you want to do is done simply by:
{1} Preset text = $shell(dir)
You expect "Subst" to create new variables, but it cannot do this.
"Subst" can overwrite the value of an existing field in an already submitted entry, while
"Preset" allows to prefill an existing entry field and the user may overwrites it before submitting (if it is not "Locked".)
In both cases you can either call a shellscript to create the desired text, or you can use
one of the predefined variables defined in the help pages "ELOG - Syntax of elogd.cfg" for "Subst".

Cheers Andreas

Thank you Andreas!

So I will generate the preset entry in a shell script.

And now to something completely different:
Is there a way to make the elogd options -x and -install work together?

UPDATE:

After days of head banging and trying different syntax combinations, I finally stumbled on my own answer. It involved some syntax adjustments, and then splitting the task into these two consecutive operations:

      1. wget --no-check-certificate --cookies=on --save-cookies cookies.txt --keep-session-cookies -O e:\export1.csv "http://localhost:8080/demo/?uname=agrant&upassword=skipper"

      2. wget --no-check-certificate --cookies=on --load-cookies cookies.txt --keep-session-cookies -O e:\export2.csv http://localhost:8080/demo/?mode=CSV1

All is working fine now.

Is it possible to use wget to log into elog and export all of a logbook's data into a CSV file?

I can accomplish this perfectly when authentication IS NOT required by using:  wget --no-check-certificate -O e:\export.csv http://localhost:8080/demo/?mode=CSV1

However, I cannot accomplish it when authentication IS required by using:  wget --no-check-certificate -O e:\export.csv "http://localhost:8080/demo/?mode=CSV1&uname=agrant&upassword=skipper"

The latter appears to show that I've logged in, but the export file only contains a bunch of HTML tags, not the actual data as in the former.

How should I construct the wget command?

You can either lock all entries or none. So I would propose you set up two logbooks, one for technical changes which is not locked and one for what experimentalists are doing which is locked. Locking can be done a certain time after an entry has been made (like 1h, 1d, 1 month etc.). Or you simply make the logbook read-only.

Hi All,

I am using elog to track technical changes in an experiment but also to log what experimentalist are doing during an experiment. For the latter, I would like to be able to lock those entries from being further edited after the expertiment if finished. Is there a way to do that?

Thanks,

Manoel
