update data when monthlylog edition

From build 3044 the development baton passed to Mark Crossley. Mark has been responsible for all the Builds since. He has made the code available on GitHub. It is Mark's hope that others will join in this development, but at the very least he welcomes your ideas for future developments (see Cumulus MX Development suggestions).

update data when monthlylog edition

Post by MaxLaMenace69 »

Hello,

Sometime my station return bad data (I don't know why...) and then when it appear , I modify the monthly log file (using menu 'data logs / monthly logs').

When I come back to graph menu, I remark the new data (I changed) are not updated: I need to stop Cumulus MX , delete the database (cumulusmx.db) and restart Cumulus => After that , new data are in place . I remember that' was not the case before some versions of cumulus, and I know the data are first in the file, and after in the database.

My questions is :
- Is there a way to update monthlylog file without restart Cumulus MX and delete db ? (feature like Utils / reload dayfile)

Thank's for your help

Not currently, the recent data is now kept in the database and only appended to from the log files.

Because the recent data database may contain much more data than the log file. If you used 10 minute logging then there would be 10 recent data values for every log file entry.
