Adding process or script execution to the "time-out loggers"

Open LMG-ET opened this issue 6 years ago • 1 comments

On LMG1906 a "time-out logger" was implemented for debugging lapses in data collection. We suggest that the "time-out logger" be able to call a script or spawn a process that can execute additional debugging steps.

More generally, this could be a "ProcessWriter" - something that, when receives a write() command, executes a script or shell command with the received data.

It would be an enormous opportunity for abuse, and shouldn't be implemented until we've got the server-side file chooser in place, so that only "approved" cruise definitions may be loaded and run.
