I have created a second rain field in weewx. I see that when the rain packets come in, they properly post the amounts to MQTT as they happen, so I know that the fields are being extracted properly.
However, when the archive interval runs, rather than taking the sum of the fields over the archive period like I would like, it is instead taking the average (which I know is by design), which is skewing my data. How can I tell weewx to use the sum for this custom field rather than the average? I see on the customization guide that it says the following, but no mention of how to customize this: *LOOP packets may contain arbitrary data from the station/driver in the form of a Python dictionary. Each LOOP packet must contain a time stamp, and a unit system, in addition to any number of observations, such as temperature or humidity. For extensive types, such as rain, the packet contains the total amount of rain that fell during the observation period.* -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.
