| Steve Jones | steve.jones@freescale.com | Bug report | All | 2.6.2-1723 | Interesting behavior with $shell |
eLog does not do math so I am trying to leverage the $SHELL function to perform the math. I am using GAWK to perform the math -- I started trying to use CONDITIONAL ATTRIBUTES to assign numeric values to attributes but with loading up the ATTRIBUTES with all of the options brings elog to its knees in terms of performance -- the parsing of attributes is simply too string intensive.
So, I embedded the numeric score in the OPTIONS of the ATTRIBUTE and leveraged the text processing prowess of GAWK:
Options WhoIsEffected = 1:...Single User, 5:...Project, 10:...Department, 50:...Site
Options ServiceOutage = 1:...0-1 Minutes, 2:...10 Minutes, 10:...20 Minutes, 30:...30 Minutes, 100:...gt60
Then pass the following command to GAWK:
Preset TotalScore = $shell(gawk 'BEGIN{split(\"$WhoIsEffected:$ServiceOutage\",scores,\":\");print scores[1]+scores[3]}' )
The interesting result is this works - the proper summation is returned but apparently elog parsing also returns everything after the first ')' as something that also needs to be returned. So the resulting contents of TotalScore is 2;print scores[1]+scores[3]}' ) assuming one chose the first option of both attributes (the output pasted here are real results).
Before getting to this point I tried using the GAWK internal variable of $0 - but this did not work because apparently $0 in elog is defined as the OS shell!
Stefan, is it possible for you to try creating a logbook on the elog demo site that shows people how to perform math and in the process discover what the $SHELL function is doing? |

So, in order to quickly get around the problem I did the following:
Preset TotalScore = $shell(echo \"$WhoIsEffected:$ServiceOutage\" | gawk -f <gawkscript>' )
This works since all of the script logic is contained in an external script but removes the logic from the elog config, so if anything changes one has to remember to change the script (which is in a comment).

| Stephane LE | stephane.le@synchrotron-soleil.fr | Question | All | | How to do a preset on MOptions attributes ? |
Hi,
I'm new to elog and I was wondering if it is possible to do some presets on MOptions attributes when displaying a new form ? I've read the elogd config page but couldn't find how to do it.
Thanks for your help,

easy...
Preset MyAttribute = choice1 | choice2 | choice3 |
