<h1>Logbooks</h1>
|
|
<p>As soon as possible after a trip finishes, a hand-written write-up of the trip is made in the nearest logbook:
|
|
the base camp logbook or the top camp logbook. All these logbook entries are then typed into a laptop (often the expo laptop)
|
|
which is then synchronised the version control system.
|
|
|
|
<p>The logbook writeup is the oldest and most basic way of recording your trip but it must not be neglected. This is also where you put
|
|
your speculations and ideas for what looks promising and what is obvious but doesn't go: things that are vital to future expoers. And please, please
|
|
do lots of sketches in the logbook.
|
|
|
|
<h3>Where the logbook computer file is kept</h3>
|
|
<p>If you are using the <em>expo laptop</em> just edit this file:
|
|
<pre>
|
|
/home/expoweb/years/2018/logbook.html
|
|
</pre>
|
|
and other people will take care of synchronising it with the version control system.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
<b>DO NOT</b> take a copy of the logbook.html file from the expo laptop,
|
|
copy it by email or USB stick to another laptop, edit it there and then copy it back. That will
|
|
<em>delete other people's work</em>.
|
|
|
|
<p>If you are using your own laptop then you will need to either:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Just type up your trip as a separate file, or just write it in an email, and send it to someone nerdish, or
|
|
<li><a href="update.htm#manual">install and learn how to use</a> the version control software.
|
|
And you will need to synchronise regularly (every day) to
|
|
ensure that the updates from all the people entering trip data are OK and don't get overwritten by ignorant use of this software.
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>Logbooks are typed up and kept in the [expoweb]/years/[nnnn]/ directory as 'logbook.html'.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Format of the online logbooks</a></h3>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>Do whatever you like to try and represent the logbook in html. The only rigid structure is the markup to allow troggle to parse the files into 'trips':</p>
|
|
<pre>
|
|
<div class="tripdate" id="t2007-07-12B">2007-07-12</div>
|
|
<div class="trippeople"><u>Jenny Black</u>, Olly Betts</div>
|
|
<div class="triptitle">Top Camp - Setting up 76 bivi</div>
|
|
<div class="timeug">T/U 10 mins</div>
|
|
</pre>
|
|
<p>Note that the ID's must be unique, so are generated from 't' plus the trip date plus a,b,c etc.
|
|
when there is more than one trip on a day.</p>
|
|
<p>T/U stands for "Time Underground" in hours (6 minutes would be "0.1 hours").
|
|
|
|
<hr />
|
|
<h3>Historical logbooks</h3>
|
|
<p>Older logbooks (prior to 2007) were stored as logbook.txt with just a bit of consistent markup to allow troggle parsing.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The formatting was largely freeform, with a bit of markup ('===' around header, bars separating date, <place> - <description>, and who) which allows the troggle import script to read it correctly. The underlines show who wrote the entry. There is also a format for time-underground info so it can be automagically tabulated.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>So the format should be:</p>
