I wasn't thinking so much of replicating all the functions of wviewmgmt,
just the basic stuff, including a status of the parts (ftp, html, etc).
Sort of a dashboard view of the configured functions, and config parameters
- I have no interest in the automated start-stop buttons, which didn't
I purposely avoided a tool such as wviewmgmt for the reasons Matthew
outlined as well as two others.
1. It requires installing a webserver, so now the mission of a newbie
becomes getting a webserver running (although with the the introduction of
nginx and lighttpd this isn't so bad as it
Yup, I get all that, and was actually thinking about a standalone mgmt tool
that would replace some of the manual editing, just some way to enter the
basic stuff into weewx.conf without hand-editing the file. At this stage
I'm just kicking tires, and asking where the first set of limits are to

I've just been going through all the html templates and other foundational
files. It appears I can extend the weewx web page-set at will, changing
appearance through the css configurations, adding pages, and so on. I'd
like to recreate most of the wview presentation pages within reason, for
Go for it!
WeeWX will add some tables to your wview sqlite database. These are "daily
summaries." It will take a while (how long depends on processing power) to
"backfill" these summaries from the archive database, but it will keep you
informed as to what is going on. I doubt there will be an
Hey Vince, thanks for the help !!
I've got almost 3 years of archived weather data in my wview files, all of
it in sql-lite3 databases and I'd like to pull it all into weewx (wth - in
for a penny, in for a pound). My Davis Vantage Pro 2 wireless station is
connected to computer via USB cable

Forgot to ask - once I'm ready to switch from the weewx simulator to the
actual Davis Vantage Pro 2 station, do I need to purge the simulated data
before starting polling with real data?
I ask because that was how wview handled the transition between simulated
and real data, in order to clear
Ah, got it. This all sounds very promising !!
I'll do a WeeWX install on the same box (after doing a backup of WView data
and config just in case) after reading your references.
Thanks for the encouragement, Tom ... greatly appreciated !! Time to get
started reading :)

Hello, Rod.
Not surprisingly, I was also a long-time wview user before starting weewx.
Mark Teel (the author of wview) was not a part of weewx, although, as you
note, many of his design decisions influenced me.
Because weewx uses the same schema as wview, moving over is a simple
matter. Take a
I've been a WView weather display program user since about 2010, and while
a bit dated looking UI-wise, found it sufficient for my needs. Its
installed on an AMD MB-based computer, with 240GB SSD, and running under
Debian Linux. Its connected to my Davis Vantage Pro 2 weather station via
