| Stefan Ritt | stefan.ritt@psi.ch | Question | Other | 2.5.2 | Re: CSV importing |
I implemented the feature to import the main entry text body from a CSV column labeled
"text". Please see the newest release
(http://midas.psi.ch/cgi-bin/cvsweb/elog/src/elogd.c?rev=1.319) and let me know if this
works for you.
I had to add code to break apart long text bodies after 78 characters in order not to
get too long lines. Please note that the maximum body size in the CSV import is limited
to 500 characters. |

No, but this request is already on the wishlist
(http://midas.psi.ch/elog/wishlist.html) since some time. I added your vote. |

I've been trying an alternative approach which is basically to :
1. Import the data (not including the text field) into elog from a CSV file
2. Stop the elog server
3. Use a perl script to add each text entry to the appropriate record within the
logbook file.
(I.e. between the =============================== of the appropriate entry
and the next ' |

Is there any way to configure elog so that attribute fields can be edited
on more than line like the 'text' field?
(This would be useful so that attributes could contain larger portions of
text including line breaks)
thanks

Not yet, but I can implement it. Do you always have a column "text" in your
CSV data or would you like to be able to select which column goes into the
"text" field? Can you apend some sample CSV data so that I can have a look at it? |

I have been importing data from a CSV file into elog which has worked.
However I'd like to import data from the CSV file, directly to the 'text'
field, rather than just to one an attribute fields. Is it possible to do
this?

Stefan,
thank you for the fast implementation of this feature. I compiled the new revision and
it worked as expected.
Kind regards,

I implemented a switch "protect selection page" in revision 1.318, which can be
obtained at http://midas.psi.ch/cgi-bin/cvsweb/elog/src/elogd.c?rev=1.318. If this
switch is not set to "1", the selection page can be seen without having to log in. |
