Haiku simplest way to archive HAI Omni event logs using HH?

[heffneil]

JS19707 I agree but I hate to put my password in script that is unencrypted. I guess I could setup a haiku specific email address for that which makes sense....

Yes, we'll likely add SMTP support. This would make it independent of our server too, which is good.

We could store that in the HaikuHelper prefs, not in the script.

 

[heffneil]

That would be ideal. Or maybe store it in the keychain? I don't know if Haiku Helper has access to it...

I ran the above script with the every 10 minutes option and haven't received one for several hours. I tried it yesterday and then realized I had the wrong email address! I feel bad for that other neil if it was working - but I don't think it was. Anyway I copied and pasted it just as you had it. Any thoughts?

 

[heffneil]

There is a problem with this script however as it looks like the message to be sent is too large and our server will not allow it through. We'll have to look at either increasing the message size limit or letting HaikuHelper do the actual e-mailing directly using your own SMTP server.

I see now so it uses your mail server by default. Sorry I have probably been bombarding them - my apologies. Yes a more robust mail option would be ideal. I could utilize gmails smtp server since I am not relaying but emailing myself. Any idea when this might happen? In the meantime can I write to a log file?

 

[lupinglade]

Sure, use helper.logToExternalFile('Events.log', text) instead of sendMail() similar to the first post.

We're working on better email functionality.

 

[heffneil]

I believe it should be:

helper.logToExternalFile('Events.log', message)

instead of:

helper.logToExternalFile('Events.log', text)

 

[lupinglade]

We're submitting an update today that will allow you to use your own SMTP server (now required).

 

[heffneil]

Any word on the HH update? I keep checking the app store but I don't see anything yet

Thanks!

Still waiting for review from Apple.

 

[heffneil]

How long does it normally take apple to approve stuff?

Depends on if there are any issues, if there aren't about 1-2 weeks.
