Sorry,
I have had now the time to dig deeper in our code and realized that we actually use rmana, i.e. WITH ROOT. If there is an easy way to incorporate the necessary |
 15 Nov 2017, Andreas Knecht, Suggestion, Feature request: Separate ODB flag to show programs on "Programs page"
|
Currently one has to set the required flag in the ODB (e.g., /Programs/Logger/Required) to "y" for the program
to appear on the "Programs page" and being able to start and stop the program easily.

Hi,

Hello,
I'm wondering if it would be possible to add the ability to lock ODB variables as

15 Oct 2015, Amy Roberts, Forum, lazylogger: a little less lazy?
|
We're using the lazylogger to trigger a script that copies files, and the lag
between a completed file appearing and the lazylogger trigger occasionally feels
uncomfortably long. It's not too bad - at most, around five or so minutes. But

|
We're using mhttpd for calls that end up working better with asynchronous requests, and we've built up sort of a parallel, asynchronous library using javascript
Promises.

When using the sequencer to start and stop runs which use a deferred transition,
the sequencer fails with a "Cannot stop run: ..." error.

Here is (1) my promisified HTTP request function and (2) a function that uses the returned promises to build an asynchronous, sequential chain of requests |

10 Dec 2015, Amy Roberts, Suggestion, script command limited to 256 characters; remove limit?
|
Both the /Script and /CustomScript trees in the ODB allow users to trigger a
script via Midas - which silently truncates command strings longer than
256 characters.

28 Jan 2016, Amy Roberts, Suggestion, script command limited to 256 characters; remove limit?
|
Using low-level memory allocation routines in higher-level programs like mhttpd makes me nervous.
We could use vector arrays to allow variable-sized allocation, and use the data() member function to access the char* needed for functions like strlcat,

08 Sep 2016, Amy Roberts, Bug Report, control characters not sanitized by json_write - can cause JSON.parse of mhttpd result to fail

I've recently run into issues when using JSON.parse on ODB keys containing
8-bit data.

09 Sep 2016, Amy Roberts, Suggestion, AJAX jmsg "get messages since t" ability - add to docs?

I recently needed to watch the Midas messages for a particular error - and
thus needed a command to "get all the messages since a time t".

16 Feb 2018, Amy Roberts, Suggestion, respect capitalization option in db_get_values mjsonrpc method?

I'd like to use the mjsonrpc db_get_values method, but (as indicated in the
documentation) it returns all ODB keys as lowercase.

|
17 Feb 2018, Amy Roberts, Suggestion, respect capitalization option in db_get_values mjsonrpc method?
|
It appears I needed to read the documentation more closely - the method db_save
does respect key-name capitalization and solves my problem.
