We're up to 30 logbooks, 3.2GB data total and Elog damen has now become slow. Performance stats show 100%CPU on startup then reduces. Searches and general UI activity is slow. It runs on a VM with 4GB memory allocated. Up to 15 concurrent users.

Trimming and archiving some data files may help but I gather overall this is underpowered hardware in this instance so what is recommended system requirements for a config like this?

Dear all,

I just wanted to share a small script which I wrote to integrate our ELOG in Slack. This allows us to be notified immediately if there is a new logbook entry directly within the appropriate Slack channels. We're using ELOG V2.9.2-245 but if the log-file format has "Subject, Author, Type" in the header, it should work with any other version. I'm using Pyinotify for the file watch which relies on a Linux Kernel feature (merged in kernel 2.6.13) called inotify, so the script only works on Linux.

Here is the code: https://github.com/tamasgal/elog-slack

Cheers and thanks for ELOG!

For our application we have a lot of very common events we would like to log.  It would be preferable that for certain events/entries we could setup a single button / quick entry method.  Is there away to accomplish this?

I have another tricky question.

Is there a way to simulate an ELOG SUBMIT?

We developed a module which automatically inserts new submits from ELOG 
into an SQL database. The module is in testing phase but we can already 
tell it does the job as it should. 

This allows us to copy ELOG entries into SQL database. But in some cases, 
we would like to transmit data in the other direction too - from SQL into 
ELOG (synchronization).

Now, one way to do that is to create .txt files with entries directly, but 
we find it too risky (file-locking mentioned in a question earlier today 
can be one of the issues). So we're contemplating a possibility that ELOG 
does these inserts for us by processing some simulated SUBMITS.

We're assuming that ON SUBMIT, you generate a POST (or a GET ?) over http 
which is then processed by the ELOGD server. This should be possible to 
simulate in our synchronization application. Are we correct in our 
assumptions?

Sorry to bother you. I could see in past Forum entries that the question of  "Simple Math" has come up before, although the answers were not all that simple.

Can you do simple math (i.e. attribute A + attribute B = attribute C) in ELOG ?

Thank you for putting up with my questions.
