icon5.gif   v3.1.3 does not work with logbooks from v2.9.2?, posted by Yves on Thu Feb 1 03:12:03 2018 test1.pngtest2.png
I have just upgraded elog from 2.9.2 -> 3.1.3.

3.1.3 runs fine with new logbooks. However, when trying to run 3.1.3 with my logbooks created with 2.9.2 things stop working.

Here is the command I run for testing [attachment 1]: first of all it takes a very long time (~ 10 minutes) for it to index the logbooks. When

Hi Yves,

just my two pence, maybe they help you to figure out what's going on:

versions 2.* had all entries of one
logbook in one directory. Version 3.* create a subdirectory for each year. This had been added for me: if you use AFS for logbook storage, then you have
a limit on how many files you can put into a single directory.

So the first time you start elogd 3.* with data from an elogd 2.* it should

Hi Andreas,

Thanks - you pointed me in the right direction. It appears that my logbooks were a combination of the two versions. I had all the year-directories
(version 3) but also all the entry files in the main logbook directory. Seems version 2 does not care but version 3 does not like it. After carefully checking

Dear elog community,

We have a problem with elog V3.1.2-bd75964.
Sometimes entries disappear from the list after editing.
    icon2.gif   Re: Entries disappear after editing, posted by Stefan Ritt on Mon Jan 29 09:14:35 2018 
Drafts are message which somebody started to edit, but did not complete, like leaving the page without saving. If you don't like this, you can set
"save drafts = 0".

The locking has a similar background. If you have locking on (vis "Use lock = 1"), then one person can "lock" a message,

Thanks for fast response!

I LIKE locking and saving drafts.
The only problem is that the locked message disappeared from the list.
          icon2.gif   Re: Entries disappear after editing, posted by Stefan Ritt on Tue Jan 30 14:35:23 2018 
I also experienced various sproradic issues with locking, so I usually keep it off.

icon5.gif   Is there a python3 api to generate logbook entries from python?, posted by markus on Tue Jan 16 09:30:55 2018 
Dear elog community,

I wonder whether there is a python3 api or lib to generate and append entries (and attachments) to the logbook using scripts.
However, so far I did not find anything...
    icon2.gif   Re: Is there a python3 api to generate logbook entries from python?, posted by Stefan Ritt on Tue Jan 16 09:46:04 2018 
There are two options


Wrap the "elog" command line tool 
Use "curl". Ther is a PycURL library http://pycurl.io/docs/latest/ which
can be used, so you don't have to call any command line tool. The usage of curl is described in elog:68597

Have a look here: https://github.com/paulscherrerinstitute/py_elog

I haven't tried it myself, but it should allow you to add, reply, edit, delete elog entries from python (>= 3.5) via the http elog interface.
It's an anaconda package.

Thanks Andreas!
This is more or less exactly what I was looking for...

Can you please make a change to have the Quick Filter ComboBox controls reference the field type for ordering purposes?

For example, if attribute Lot Number is Type Numeric then the ComboBox should be listed in numerical order instead of alphanumeric (eg: 1,2,3,11,21

Stefan, I know this request was a long time ago on an older version of E-Log (which we are still using) but can you tell me if Tooltips on Radio Buttons
was ever implemented, it's not working on our version (2.92.2)?
Working as it should on MOptions?

Tooltips on 'ROptions' work since 2007, but your version 2.9.2 is pre-2007, so you should consider to upgrade.
