Detailed Description

Since V0.21.2, this class manages the ObservingLists, successor of the Bookmarks feature available since 0.15.

Note: The old Bookmarks.json format should now be seen as deprecated. Updated in Version 1.0: ObservingLists Version 2.0 Updated in Version 23.1: ObservingLists Version 2.1

This tool manages Observing Lists based on a unique list identifier, the OLUD = Observing List Unique Designation Old bookmarks.json files are auto-imported at first run. The old file is then not touched any further and could still be used in older versions of Stellarium. This first bookmarks list is then the first stored ObservingList. You can create new lists, edit them, delete them, import/export them and exchange with other users etc. You can also highlight all bookmarked objects of the active list

When creating an entry for a selected object, you can optionally store current time, location, landscapeID and field of view. This helps to retrieve the possible same view if location and/or time matter, e.g. for a list of Solar eclipses with their locations and landscapes. Obviously, a list of favourite DSOs would not need those data (but maybe FoV is still meaningful). On retrieval, the same optional elements can again be selected, so you can retrieve an object without stored time or location, if that is meaningful. If location or landscape IDs cannot be found, they are not changed.

An observingList.json looks like this: { "defaultListOlud": "{6d297068-a644-4d1b-9d2d-9c2dd64eef53}", "observingLists": { "{84744f7b-c353-45b0-8394-69af2a1e0917}": { // List OLUD. This is a unique ID "creation date": "2022-09-29 20:05:07", "last edit": "2022-11-29 22:15:38", "description": "Bookmarks of previous Stellarium version.", "name": "bookmarks list", "objects": [ // List is stored alphabetized, but given here in contextualized order for clarity. { "designation": "HIP 57632", // Catalog name. Object should be found by one of StelObjectModuleSubclasses->getStelObjectType(designation, type) "type": "Star" // Object type code (actually its class name in Stellarium) given by StelObjectModuleSubclasses->getStelObjectType() or StelObject->getType() "objtype" : "binary, pulsating variable" // More extensive description, localized. This will be re-read on program start to ensure current language. "name": "Denebola", // Primary English name of the object. This will be re-read on program start to ensure current language. "nameI18n": "Denebola", // Translated name at time of addition to the list. Added for reference when using the exported list elsewhere. The name is retranslated in Stellarium after loading because user language may have changed. "ra": "11h49m05.0s", // Optional. Right Ascension in J2000.0 frame. Good if moving object is stored. If empty, current coordinates will be added on loading. "dec": "+14°34'15\"", // Optional. Declination in J2000.0 frame. Good if moving object is stored. If empty, current coordinates will be added on loading. "constellation": "Leo", // Optional. Good if moving object is stored. "magnitude": "2.10", // Optional. Good if moving object is stored.

"{bd40274c-a321-40c1-a6f3-bc8f11026326}": { // List OLUD of next list. "creation date": "2022-12-21 11:12:39", "last edit": "2023-07-29 22:23:38", "description": "test of unification", "name": "mine_edited", "objects": [ { "constellation": "Cyg", "dec": "+45°16'59\"", "designation": "HIP 102098", "fov": 0, "isVisibleMarker": true, "jd": 0, "landscapeID": "", "location": "", "magnitude": "1.25", "name": "Deneb", // Used to be nameI18n, but this is a bad idea for list exchange! "ra": "20h41m24.4s", "type": "Star" "objType": "double star, pulsating variable star" }, ... <other objects> ], "sorting": "" }, ... <other observingLists> }, "shortName": "Observing list for Stellarium", "version": "2.0" }

Updated for 23.1: Integrated functions of extra edit dialog, deep refactoring. You cannot delete the default list. Choose another list as default before deleting the displayed one. You cannot delete the last list. Importing a JSON file with observingLists will import all lists and unconditionally overwrite existing lists with the same OLUD. Exporting writes an observingList file with only the currently displayed list.

Fix a confusion introduced in the 1.* series: The ObsList has entries

"designation": The catalog number (DSO), HIP number (star), or canonical name (planet).
"nameI18n": translated name for display. Actually this is bad design in case of list exchange.
"type": As given by ObjectP->getType() or getObjectType()? This was inconsistent. FIXES:
"designation" used in combination with type as real unique object ID. For DSO, getDSODesignationWIC() must be used.
"type": Stellarium class name. Used to unambiguously identify an object even if equal-named objects exist in different classes.
"name" (new entry) English name of object. Will be written for external use, but never read.
"nameI18n" translated name. Will be written for external use, but never read.
