Recording the goniometer orientation of data collections #16

Open KarlLevik opened 7 years ago

KarlLevik commented 7 years ago

We'd like to record the goniometer orientation of data collections. I'd like to propose the following addition to the DataCollection table to cater for this:

ALTER TABLE DataCollection
  ADD goniometerOrientation enum('horizontal', 'vertical');

We wonder if it should not be better in BeamlineSetup table ?

It needs to be at a datacollection level. Some beamlines have more than one goniometer that can be switched at user time

Olof suggested at the VC today that maybe a number column, allowing e.g. 0 and 90 degrees, but also other values for future-proofing, might be better?
