Re: [weewx-user] comma in label in Seasons skin.conf causes failure

[cric...@pobox.com]

Thanks Graham,
   Yes, I'm aware, and have run multilple weewxes from a single directory 
(still multiple daemons) in the past.
In this case, it was a deliberate decision since the solar setup will be 
remote and I also intend on reproducing it
for a friend that's really remote, so this one is fully self contained.

Tom,
I surmised that the comma was a configobj problem interpreting that 
entry as a list.  It still seems a bit
odd that labels with spaces also don't need to be quoted, but..."when in 
Rome..."  :^)  Learn something new
every day.

Thx, Chris

for the forum search record, you can do a lot of stuff (especially using 
services) within one instance of weewx. you only *must* use separate instances 
when you need multiple drivers, or services conflict with each other. you *may* 
separate instances for operational or scalability purposes

If a string has a comma in it, configobj
, the configuration manager,
interprets it as a list. That's why you have to quote it.

[weewx-user] comma in label in Seasons skin.conf causes failure

[cric...@pobox.com]

I'm setting up yet another weewx instance, this time for plotting a solar 
charge controller.
Not stuck on this, but ran into an issue where having a comma in a label 
name causes
the traceback below.  I didn't try quoting the string, but removing the 
comma cleared
the issue.
This is the latest version; 4.10.2.
  Here's the config that causes the issue:
[[[dayBatteryPwr]]]
battV
battC
   label = Battery Voltage, Current
and the error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/crichmon/weewx/bin/weewx/reportengine.py", line 197, in run
obj.start()
  File "/home/crichmon/weewx/bin/weewx/reportengine.py", line 385, in start
self.run()
  File "/home/crichmon/weewx/bin/weewx/imagegenerator.py", line 42, in run
self.gen_images(self.gen_ts)
  File "/home/crichmon/weewx/bin/weewx/imagegenerator.py", line 107, in 
gen_images
plot = self.gen_plot(plotgen_ts,
  File "/home/crichmon/weewx/bin/weewx/imagegenerator.py", line 293, in 
gen_plot
label = self.text_dict.get(label, label)
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/configobj.py", line 642, in get
return self[key]
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/configobj.py", line 554, in 
__getitem__
val = dict.__getitem__(self, key)
TypeError: unhashable type: 'list'

Thx,Chris
