ELOG(1) General Commands Manual ELOG(1) NAME elog - utility program for Electronic Logbook ELOG SYNOPSIS elog -a attribute=value [ -e id ] [ -f file... ] -h host [ -l logbook ] [ -m textfile ] [ -p port ] [ -r id ] [ -s subdir ] [ -u username password ] [ -v ] [ -w password ] message [ -x ] DESCRIPTION The Electronic Logbook ELOG can be used to store and retrieve messages through a Web interface. Depending on the configuration, the ELOG system can host one or more logbooks which are stored in separate sections on the server. elog is the standalone client program which can be used from the command line to interact with the ELOG daemon (elogd). The elog message can either be submitted on the command line or piped through `stdin' or in a file with the `-m' flag. For the former case, message with blanks must be enclosed in quotes. Multiple attributes can be specified as well as sev- eral attachments. The password must match the write password defined on the server. If user level access is defined on the server (via the `Password file' option), a valid user name / password pair must be specified with the `-u' option. The elog program makes it possible to submit logbook entries automatically by the system or from scripts. In some shift logbooks this feature is used to enter alarm messages automatically into the logbook. OPTIONS elog accepts the following options: -a attribute=value set attribute to value -e id edit existing message of id -f file... attach files while submitting -h host host where elogd is running -l logbook name of logbook or experiment -m textfile submit message from textfile -p port port where elogd is running -r id reply to existing message of id -s dir directory where logbooks reside -u username password username and password -v verbose output -w password write password defined on server -x suppress email notification SEE ALSO elogd(8).
