Would be great to include in the documentations where the log data is stored, so that users can make backup and/or delete/switch databases

Hi,
This seems like a great project and I'd like this to work for me. This is my first time working with go, so maybe I'm making a dumb mistake.

Since I'm on an M1 mac I can't use the amd64 pre-compiled program, so I'm compiling it myself. I followed the instructions on the readme and got a binary file out. However, when I try to execute the binary I get the error:

(base) chris@Chriss-MacBook-Pro bin % ./mycolog 
panic: unable to open database file: no such file or directory

goroutine 1 [running]:
main.init.0()
	/Users/chris/Documents/mycolog/cmd/mycolog/main.go:25 +0x78

Let me know if you need any more information.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I was looking through the token generation code and it didn't seem that there is a check for duplicated token (though the chance of a duplicate token being generated is very low) either in token.go or in modifications.go where the generateToken function is called. Maybe there is a check somewhere else that I just missed? If not, I'm working on an alternate token generation method where tokens are generated in sequence and you just read the last database entry token and increment it for the new token.

Would something like this work? Code attached as .txt file here. I haven't worked with .go nor sqlite databases before so don't know the code for pulling the last database entry. Is that easy to do in token.go file?

token_v2.txt

I implemented token with a length 2 since that already gives 1000 tokens and the shorter length makes labeling easier. But it isn't hard to increase the token length if needed.

Sharing a compilation note for Windows OS FYI:

Need to first enable CGO in cmd prompt with command

set CGO_ENABLED=1

Also watch out to make sure your GO compiler and GCC compiler are the same bit depth (32 vs 64). I wasn't paying attention to that at first and had to reinstall a different version of GO compiler.

On an unrelated note — I wanted the program to display all cultures by default without needing to manually set the 30 day filter, so I just changed line 110 in "queries.go" to

if filter.Since == nil {

It works perfectly for my purpose but is definitely a hack. If there is another easy way to flip the 30 day flag that is more "proper", please let me know ;)

Awesome program. I'm posting a feature request - may be cool to allow the user to generate their own token for each entry since people may already have a naming system in place for their cultures, or perhaps a way to search the notes field when entering "parents" information. Not neccessary but might just be useful for some.
