excuse my butting in ... I've found the exports useful in the past - however, is is possible to run the export from a script in order to produce reports? Utilities like wget won't work as the export process doesn't return the data as html.

That's not true. wget does work. Try that one:
wget --no-check-certificate -O export.csv https://midas.psi.ch/elogs/linux+demo/?mode=CSV1
actaully wget doesn't care if the return is HTML or a GIF image or anything else, it just saves it into the output file.

you're right, of course, on all counts!
when I was testing wget/elog to try to automate an extract I was getting a lot of stuff like:
/Change_Log/587">Software Only</a></td><td class="92^M^H<88>^\ÿ^Y"ÿ"><a href="../Change_Log/587">23416</a></td><td class="92^M^H<88>^\ÿ^Y"Ã<a href="../Change_Log/587">New</a></td><td class="92^M^H<88>^\ÿ^Y"ÿ"><a href="../Change_Log/587">Awaited</a></td>
but I must have been getting something wrong, using your command line as an example it works perfectly! Thanks again for elog!! |

Dear All,
I have got very good feedback from my colleagues about Elog logbook which I have made at my work since October 2006. The tool is going to use improving.
At moment, I don't let Elog start as a service (deamon), but as an application (start from a *.bat file). Because I just want to enable of "elogd -x" for reading of email list in an external file. But this cause that Elog cannot be set to automatically restart after a crash. (As a service in Windows, you can set it restart immediatly after crash)
I don't find anywhere in the administrator's guide how I can set the option 'elogd -x' while installing Elog to get a service with '-x' option.
Do you know it?
Dear Stefan,
could you enable it for the install download file for Windows? |

I tried, but it does not work. A windows service does not let you start a internal command line shell. No way. Use Linux  |

Hello all,
do you know how I can default set the option "Search all logbooks" in the Find page selected/checked?
Best regards,

Dear Stefan,
what i mean is that you maybe modify the setup file for Windows (elog-latest.exe) so that everybody can make change of -[options] while install Elog. I am not a Windows expert, but I think that a lot of software can be set or configurated at the first install time (For Example: Path destination, features avaible, ...)
Do you know if it is possible? |

I don't know how to set-up the scheduled tasks from the installation script. Furthermore, having a application constantly running is somehow unusual, and it will confuse normal people. To my knowledge, not many people use the -x option under Windows. These people how really need it are clever enough (like you) to set-up the batch file manually. |

I added the option
Search all logbooks = 2
which lets you do that. It's in the SVN version and will be contained in the next release. |

You should really have told me . Actually, I found out about the <Ctrl-C> issue while using this logbook.

Did so, we are running now -1826. I think it is very usable, with maybe one exception (this might be a browser issue, however): When using the shortcuts and/or the ELCode buttons, sometimes the code is generated and the cursor in between the [XX] and [/XX] directive, but sometimes, the whole code directive is selected as if for editing
which prevents from immediately continuing to type (which, I guess, was the idea behind the shortcuts). The behaviour is not completely reproducible, and I have even seen it change during one and the same browser (=firefox) session while working on the same entry (*). I also had it once that the browser out of a sudden completely ignored the ELCode meaning, and instead used <Ctrl-I> for page info and <Ctrl-B> for the history.
(*) It just happened again!
BTW, there are (of course ) two other issues. They are still present in -1826
- one bug was reported by a logbook user: when using the "find" function in a logbook, and selecting one value from the "Author" drop-down list and another from the "Category" drop-down list, the elogd reports no entries found, but when specifying only the "Author" and leaving "Category" blank, many entries are found, including those with the "Category" being looked for. When specifying only the "Category" and leaving the "Author" blank, the elogd also reports no entries found. Has anyone reported a similar behaviour?
- We have one logbook top group for the beamtimes. Under certain conditions, a preset text is to be displayed.
{2&a} Preset Text = resource/text_1.txt
{2&b} Preset Text = resource/text_2.txt
However, the definitions of these conditions have to be repeated for every logbook in the group (putting it only under [global beamtimes] doesn't do it), otherwise they are ignored.
Any idea on these? |
