Re: [Fwd: How to customize the ascii output format?]



Hi Joe
It's good to get your suggestion. My situation is that I'm not using the insitu custom
code for my site. I'm using $LAS/server/custom/custom.pl to process the operations
I added into las.xml.
I just read the insitu custom.pl subroutine insitu_data, but I don't know how to
adapt it into my current configuration. Therefore I might have to still use std_list.jnl type script
to do the work.
Thanks a lot for your suggestion anyway.
Cheers, Ding

Hi Ding,

It looks like you understand what is needed. To save a step, and instead of creating a
temporary file with std_list.jnl type script, you could look at the insitu custom.pl subroutine
called insitu_data. This subroutine uses the data already stored in the Perl
LAS::Server::Ferret object (i.e. $self->{props}->{x_lo}) and prints formatted text to an output
file which LAS wraps up in html and throws back to the browser. You can tweak the format right
in the subroutine or name a new subroutine and add it as a custom operation.

Hi Joe
Thanks a lot for your information.
I guess I know how to do it now. What I'm doing and going to do is
to add a customized operation, say MooringData, into my las.xml file.
Then I modified my
custom.pl file, add a function MooringData. In the function MooringData,
it will call
a ferret script first, MooringData.jnl, which is basically a simplified
version of std_list.jnl,
to get the ascii data and save them into a temperary file. Then, the
perl program will trim
the ascii file and return the output I need. In the meantime, my LAS
web page is modified
to call the MooringData operation.
Does this sound correct?
Thanks a lot, Ding
