trendPlotter: non-standard tool configuration

There is the option for using a non-standard tool configuration instead of config.trendPlotter. That special configuration gives much more flexibility for the design of the output, but because of that is not intended for reports on the HC site. A typical application of special configuration is the WISQ web site.

A non-standard tool configuration is called like follows:

trendPlotter -c <non-standard_config> -r <report> -f

There is no rule about its name.

Its content is the same as that of the standard configuration file (which you check out here), plus it has some additional keys which are not configurable in standard HC reports.

Section 1: additional general parameters
WIDTH
600 non-standard width of HTML table in px (standard value is 950 pixels)
     
HEADER /observing/dfo/quality/WISQ/HEALTH/header_WISQ.html non-standard header page
VNAVBAR /observing/dfo/quality/WISQ/HEALTH/navbar_WISQ.html non-standard vertical navigation bar
PLOT_LABEL Workflow_information_system_for_QC non-standard plot label
     
PRODUCT_SECTION NO optional; display the product section (default: YES)
INFO_SECTION NO optional; display the INFO section (HELP | USERS-GUIDE | MORE) (default: YES)
HISTORY_SECTION YES optional; display the horizontal navbar (default: YES)
     
SCORE_FLAG NO NO: no link to "scores&comments" included (default: YES)
HISTO_FLAG NO NO: no link to "history" offered (default: YES)
EDIT_FLAG NO NO: no 'edit' button for "Report news" (e.g. since they don't comply with DATE convention)
EDIT_PERMA YES YES: comment is permanent (validity check turned off)
     
DATE_RANGE YES NO: switch off "last_90_days", "QC_data_range: ... "
DATE_RNG_LABEL Data_range_for_ZP non-standard text for DATE_RANGE (default: "QC_data_range") ; all '_' will be replaced by blanks

If you use a non-standard tool configuration file, you should mark the report configuration file(s) with the special key CONFIG_TYPE (value is NON_STANDARD). Check out here.

Furthermore some standard configuration keys can be filled in a non-standard way. For instance, the standard value for QC_URL is

http://www.eso.org/observing/dfo/quality/GIRAFFE/reports

while for WISQ reports it becomes

http://www.eso.org/observing/dfo/quality/WISQ .
