Database file name

[leventelist]

Is there any way to explicitly specify where the database is stored? Can I change the database? For instance if I back up the database, and have a system crash... can I recover?

The only way to accomplish this currently is create a symbolic link of the location of the database folder. I currently do this to store my database in a Dropbox folder since I operate from a couple different computers. But this is not with out caution, I have had a couple times where my database got corrupted and I needed to roll back a version in DropBox. The paths are located here: https://github.com/foldynl/QLog/wiki/Autobackup

Great question! I need to run QLog on my home PC, or from my laptop when I travel. I've been able to do that using log4om because the SQlite DB is stored in OneDrive so I can access it from anywhere.

It is not possible to operate in this mode yet. I have something in progress, unfortunately the problem is more complex than it might seem to the average user.

I'd really see this as a feature. Moreover, the configuration file (if it is a single one) would be nice to be portable; i.e. could be kept under version control, so one could win precious time to configure QLog on a new system.

Agree, i'd love to have this option. Especially the ability to transfer the settings AND log cross platform.
