Use "list display = <attribute list>" to specify which attributes to show in the listing page. RTFM. |
Thanks. "List display" is what we need.
But is there a way to control to hide or view the attributes? so that we don't need to change the elog.conf file each time.
For example, add a menu "expend" in "Find menu commands", we can click to view all the attributes or just view the attributes defined in "List Display"
Or use "{1} List Display = ....", we can view all the attributes at list page, but if selecting SunOS, only show attributes in List Display |

In that case I would suggest two separate logbooks, for for SunOS and one for others. This way you can manage two separate sets of attributes. |
We don't want separate logbooks, sorry for the misleading. I was trying to put two request together.
1. We have several user using the logbook. Is there a way each one has his own "List Display". In our case the user also is an attribute(SysAdmin) in logbook:
Attributes = Name, SysAdmin, Manufacturer, Model, Serial Number, Description, ENV, Main Function, Location, Memory, CPU Speed, Num CPU, Owner, Contact Name, Contact Phone, Contact Email, Bought From, Bought Date, Maintenance, Network Drop,Console Drop
Options SysAdmin = user1{1}, user2{2}, user3{3}
so one way we can think of is using "{1} List Display = ...."
"{2} List Display = ...."
"{3} List Display = ...."
because most of the time the user is interested in his own machine. Maybe you have better suggestion.
2. We need to change elog.conf file to use or not use "List Display". Is there a way to control it through web? If this is not applicable. It's fine, we won't change the view frequently. |

I understood you correctly. What I was trying to say is that what you currently request possible with the current version and will not be implemented soon. But you can partly obtain what you want by having two logbooks. Make one logbook which has fewer attributes, and which will receive all SunOS entries. Make another one with all the attributes. Although this will become separate logooks, you can "think" of them as one logbook with two different sections. There is even the trick of forcing the data directory to be the same (via the "data dir") option, so both logbooks will "look" at the same database. Make one logbook the "master" having all the attributes. That's where you enter your information. Them make one or more logbooks looking at the same data, but make them read-only. Each logbook can have a separate set of attributes, access rights etc, but all of them show the same data.
I know this is not the perfect solution, but at least something which can be done already now. |
Thank you so much. We'll try it. Waiting for your next version. |

Stefan, I am not an expert in this field so I wondered how one goes about finding someone to write this and how one amends the soruce code? Is that allowed? Is it a feature than may be of use for other users? Julian

Unfortunately elog cannot do calculations based on certain fields. You could however add some Javascript code (via "Bottom text = ..." for example), which does that. But that requires JavaScript knowledge to do so.

Hi Julian,
there is a whole chapter in the documentation about that: https://midas.psi.ch/elog/config.html#email
If I have to send email, e.g. for Controls issues entered in the operation logbook, I do send the email to a specific mailman mailing list for that group.
It is cumbersome to manage email groups in the logbook configuration - in particular if the same lists exists in different logbooks. I only refer to the mailing list then in ELOG, and the groups can manage their lists themself.
I do maintain about 30 logbooks and there are about 10 groups at my institutes that desire email notifications for ELOG entries related to the systems they manage.
Cheers
Andreas
