Timestamp - Default show latest entry first (descending) #103

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago

When doing any kind of search you always get the oldest log entry shown first. 
How can i change this behavior to always show latest logs first?

This can be solved with the orderby query modifier like:

orderby:timestamp orderby_dir:desc

I will get this into the documentation.

Any chance that i can set this as the default when doing a search? So i dont 
have to type in "orderby"

Sure, I've added code to do this, but it won't go in until a commit with some 
other code, so it'll be a day or two before it's in.  The setting is documented 
already (use "default_settings" and "orderby_dir" as "DESC").

Changed state: Fixed

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago

Sorry, but could you be a bit more specific on where this setting should be 
written? Is it in the elsa_web.conf ?

Ah, sure.  It's in the "Preferences" menu which is in the upper-left-hand
corner of the screen under the big "ELSA" menu.

I added this to preferences, but it still does not show latest log entry's first

      Type               Name             Value
default_settings      orderby_dir          DESC

Right, that code hasn't been committed yet.  Should be within a few days.
 I'll close this ticket when I commit the code so you'll know.  Now that
you've got the preference added, when I commit the code and you run
installer.sh web update, it should just work.

New installation rev 738
I still can only get it to work if i include "orderby:timestamp 
orderby_dir:desc" in the search string. Why not make this setting an option 
setting in elsa_web.conf like "default_start_time_offset" is?

I can probably make it a config variable, but this should work.  Are you 
logging in, or are you not using a username/password?  If you don't login, then 
a user preference wouldn't work.

I've added default_sort_descending as an option to elsa_web.conf.  Set it to 1 
to have ELSA default to descending order.
