Thank you, Andreas!  Not sure why I kept overlooking it in the manual.  As for the number of entries when I sort, I'm not sure.  I'll
set it up to display a larger number and see what happens.

Hey,

i'm trying to use curl to post new entries to our logbook as described here: https://elog.psi.ch/elogs/Forum/68597.
The Elog is installed via the Deban package on Buster.

After going through the code of the Python API (https://github.com/paulscherrerinstitute/py_elog/blob/master/elog/logbook.py) I tried the following:
$ python3
>>> from passlib.hash import sha256_crypt

This is correct. The elogd daemon needs username and password in parameters "unm" and "upwd". The password must be SHA256 encoded,
so best is to grab it from the password file. This way one does not have to send clear text passwords over the network.

All,

 

I am using elog as an observation log for amateur astronomy. I have a form configured, but I would like to know if it is possible to

As far as I know, it is not possible, if you make a "new" entry.
You could configure the elog, to always PRESET an atribute, but then it is always the same, not the last.

I think the "duplicate" entry function could provide you partly with the functionality you want, as it copies all old values into a

It is probably possible, but requires a big of a hack.

Whenever you save a new entry or edit an old one, you run a little shell script
to write the value of this field into a file.

Whenever you create a new entry you read the PRESET value with a shell script from that file.

Here
are the relevant excepts from the documentation:
