Standard log files: Difference between revisions

You can see [[#Manipulation outside Cumulus]] below for more information.

 

 

In the admin interface, there is a "Data Logs" tab, from it select ''Data logs''.

*On this screen,you see a box for selecting the log you want to display. The default month and year (shown on loading the web page) is taken from yesterday's date. No log is loaded at start up. You can '''either''' type in a period (one or two digit representing month, then hyphen, then four digits representing year) '''or''' select year then month in the data picker (this is produced by the bootstrap software MX uses, it is not the date picker provided by your browser), when you click on the month the box is updated with selected period.

* Next to it is a "Load" button. Press it and the Cumulus MX engine will generate an application programming interface (api) table that will appear on the web page using dataTables software. There is a "Refresh" button, for when you want that api to refresh the table (without reloading the whole page).

 

 

The table generated is paginated, it shows ten lines at a time, and there are arrow icons to move to next, and back to previous page.

 

 

When you click on any single line, two extra buttons (for editing that line and for deleting that line) are enabled. The '''Delete a line''' button brings up what the editing software calls a modal, a pop up dialog where you see the fields on that row listed vertically and have two more buttons (Cancel and Delete) with obvious consequences.

It must be remembered that the standard log file contains some fields that are directly read from your weather station and some that are derived from those readings. Consequently, if you edit:

#Temperature

*Rain counter

*Feels like temperature
