Hi,
I am trying to access elog through a python client (https://github.com/paulscherrerinstitute/py_elog) and found a strage strange behavior which
may be related server side problem. The python script generates get/post messages via the python requests library. This works fine so far and I can view |

Seems like I've discovered another bug here related to umlauts in my name. :D
I was submitting this post and forgot to put an icon. Elog seems to have saved a copy of my message, which I could not edit since my username
does not match the bugged name saved for this message. |

How about string constants in config files?, posted by Andreas Luedeke on Thu Oct 21 11:15:20 2021
|
My config files are often large and use some shell scripting. In these shell scripting part I interact with files and execute scripts in specific folder.
It would be nice to have the ability to define for example a file path once and reuse it in different parts of the config file. It would help to
make config files cleaner. For example: |

EDIT: forget the tip below. Instead just call script files: inline scripting in the ELOG config shows very strange behavior. Doing the same in external
scripts works reliable.

How to access PSI Elog data from other web clients , posted by Lin Wang on Wed Oct 13 02:38:34 2021
|
We want to develop separate mobile web pages for the web applications deployed at CSNS accelerator, including the PSI Elog.
In Elog, is there RESTful API or HTTP/JSON or HTTP/XML interface for other web clients to access?
Or is there any workaround? |

When elog has been developed, REST did not yet exist. The closest you can get is the RSS API. Just try https://elog.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/elog.rdf
and you see the result for this forum. To write to elog, you can use teh HTTP/HTML interface and mimic a browser. See for example elog:69209

Reverse proxy of Elog using Docker and Nginx?, posted by Andrew Wade on Mon Aug 13 21:09:30 2018
|
I've been trying to configured a Synology NAS to run my personal elog with a reverse proxy to the outside world. The best way seems to be running
Elog in a Docker instance and then running a separate connected Docker running a nginx-proxy (in this case jwilder/nginx-proxy).
This second container manages the certificates to letsencrypt and mapping URL requests to relevant containers so that connection is secured properly. |

Have you tried the "URL = ..." statement? This determines you elog redirects if you log in. If you reach elog through a proxy, the URL is a
different one that if you access it directly. In your case the proxy URL might be necessary.

Yes, I tried setting the URL parameter to the url used by the proxy. It goes to the correct address but that landing is the login page.

Actually this forum works through an Apache reverse proxy with authentication and it works, so I suspect that the problem has to do with jwilder/nginx-proxy.
Since we don't have this here, all I can propose is that you do debugging yourself. Run elogd with the -v flag so that you see all requests coming
from the user through the proxy. Compare the requests through Apache and Nginx to see if any argumets are stripped or mangled. Upon successful login, elog |

It does indeed seem to be a cookie stripping issue. I just need to figure out how to get Nginx to forward these properly.
Thanks for the help.

I have the same problem -- did you find a solution in using the nginx revese proxy with user login?

How to lock a specific entry?, posted by Manoel Couder on Tue Sep 14 17:48:52 2021
|
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? |
|
Re: How to lock a specific entry?, posted by Stefan Ritt on Tue Sep 14 18:18:03 2021

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. |

Large log file size, posted by Alan Grant on Mon Aug 30 03:08:15 2021

| Can the size of the application log file affect performance? |

Re: Large log file size, posted by Stefan Ritt on Mon Aug 30 08:41:14 2021

If the logbook files are getting big, searching text in entries can take quite some time. But if you have a log file logging all activities, that should
not slow down elog since the server just appends at the end of that file which is a quick operation.
