rdlogmanager 1 July 2019 Linux Audio Manual rdlogmanager Module for generating Rivendell logs and reports Fred Gleason fredg@paravelsystems.com Application Author rdlogmanager OPTIONS rdlogmanager1 is a Rivendell module for generating logs and reports. When invoked with no arguments, it will start up in GUI mode. Operation in GUI mode is documented in the Rivendell Operations Guide. If one or more options are given, rdlogmanager1 will operate in batch mode. For operation in batch mode, exactly one of the following mode options must be given: -g Generate a new log. The -s switch must also be given to specify the service (see below). Unless otherwise modified by the -d option (see below), a log will be generated for the day following the current day --i.e. "tomorrow". -m Merge the Music log. The -s switch must also be given to specify the service (see below). Unless otherwise modified by the -d option (see below), the merge will be done for the day following the current day --i.e. "tomorrow". -t Merge the Traffic log. The -s switch must also be given to specify the service (see below). Unless otherwise modified by a -d option (see below), the merge will be done for the day following the current day --i.e. "tomorrow". -r rpt-name Generate a report, using the template named rpt-name. Unless otherwise modified by -d or -e options (see below), the report will be generated for the day before the current day --i.e. "yesterday". Modifier options change the default parameters of the specified mode. -d days Specify a start date offset in days. For log operations, this will be added to "tomorrow's" date to arrive at a target date, whereas for report operations it will be added to "yesterday's" date to arrive at a target date. Default value is 0. -e days Specify an end date offset in days. This will be added to "yesterday's" date to arrive at a target end date. Valid only for certain report types. Default value is 0. -P Protect an existing target object --i.e. if the specified operation has already been performed, do not overwrite the prior result. -s service-name Specify the name of the service for a log operation. Required when the the -g, -m or -t modes are specified (see above). The syntax of rdlogmanager1's switches is decidedly grotty, nor does it conform to the "long-form" switch conventions used in most other Rivendell commands. rdclilogedit1 , rdrender1
