Webtags (preserving history): Difference between revisions

I wanted to improve the log file editing pages, and that was partly by adding validation, and partly by changing the way the editing is done. For the standard log file editor I wanted to achieve even more, I added a script to calculate (and recalculate after any edit) the derived fields from the source fields. To make these calculations work for anyone, I needed to find out what units the Cumulus MX user is using. Before 3.7.0 release the snippet of script that obtained the units via various api calls was quite complex (I described above how the api returned lots of unwanted content), but with 3.7.0 itmy new api call was greatly simplified to what I show below. Please note my revised log file editing scripts did not make it into a public release, and it is only the units obtaining api that I am making available to public here.
