[weewx-user] Re: Looking for reliable weather station -- reliably working with WeeWX

I am also using an Acurite 5-in-1 (and eight additional sensors (including the lightning sensor)) connected to a Raspberry Pi. rtl_sdr is the tuner, and rtl_433 uses rtl_sdr to receive and decode packets from known devices, including the Acurite ones. Then the WeeWX SDR driver uses rtl_433 to

[weewx-user] Re: WU API ?

The free API key is good for a maximum of 10 calls per minute and 500 per day. That's not enough for commercial use, or at least commercial use that could justify paying for a higher tier. On Friday, May 18, 2018 at 4:01:56 AM UTC-4, Andrew Milner wrote: > > I shall wait and see. I would

Well, some of the problem may have been typos on my end. I know just enough about Linux to be dangerous. While i have no problem with weewx and have nothing but kudos for you, Tom, Andrew, Vince and others that spend so much time helping, I always thought it would be nice if there was some

Yes, appears to be working. Whilst upgrading the SteelSeries Gauges themselves threw the spanner in the works this time, upgrading the Gauges and rtgd should haven far easier than it was, will look at that. Re WU, if you have an API key it will work, for the time being, if you don't have an

Re: [weewx-user] Re: Steel Guages and driver update question

THANK YOU!! Every thing looks great now. My next step will be to do the upgrade of Weewx itself (I still haven't convinced myself it I should). As for the banner in the Steel Gauges; I was thinking of activating the section to show forecasts from WU, but from reading some other posts, it seems

Re: [weewx-user] Re: Steel Guages and driver update question

Steve, Looking at gauges.js all I think you need do is change the realTimeUrlWeewx setting so that it picks up you rtgd generated gauge-data.txt in the gauges directory, perhaps setting it to '../gauges/gauge-data.txt' Make sure you make the change to gauges.js in your skins/ss/scripts

Re: [weewx-user] Re: Steel Guages and driver update question

Hi Gary..I'm back! Finally got the web server back on line. All I have done so far was to change gauges.js to change the update internal from 15 seconds to 2, added the wind rose, and deleted the two solar gauges. As you can see, there are still problems, but I am not going to touch anything

I have accomplished *something* similar using Meteotemplate on my website - WeeWX sends via Meteotemplate APIs data from every LOOP packet and Meteo has a plugin that would build someothing similar to what you are looking for, but weeWX itself (AFAIK) cannot do what you are describing directly

I'll try to describe what I'm wanting to do a little better. I have a Raspberry Pi connected to the 7" touchscreen. It displays a single webpage that has 6 observation values from an Airmar 150WX sensor. I added the RWYplotgenerator (great addon for my purposes) to the template and the webpage

as far as I can see aprs.py appears to be a service which is bound to the generation of an archive record. It is using data from a single archive record and creating the aprs data file in the required format FROM A SINGLE RECORD. In order to do what you are trying to do you need to somehow

OK here is the final goal I've been trying to complement the extension, APRS.py to have all the info required to properly publish an APRS weather beacon. Originally it was missing the rain since midnight, but manage to fix that one. Now i'm still missing the rain in the last 24 hrs and

[weewx-user] Re: WU API ?

I have never used wu for forecast feed. I do use it for previous day's data for my irrigation though, but could if push came to shove generate the water % from my own data rather than my data which I have uploaded. But then again - it is using my own data which should not be affected anyway

I agree wit2h you if he only requires max, min fior the day. If however he wants all readings fior the previous 24 hrs then I think weewx report is not the correct route. Anyways - looping around in a template I don't think is that simple either and almost ends up more convoluted than a

[weewx-user] Re: WU API ?

Nobody is panicing. But when you take this with all of the other WU shenanigans over the past year or two you would have to say the writing is on the wall. I will be starting work on an alternate forecast feed for my site. Something about failing to plan is planning to fail comes to mind. Gary

[weewx-user] Re: WU API ?

[weewx-user] Re: Changing LeafWetness Values & generate DataFile

Why do it via cron, keep it simple in weeWX by using a template and the report_timing option (weewx.com/docs/customizing.htm#customizing_gen_time), this is exactly the use case it was intended for. Keeping it in a weeWX template gives you all the power of the weeWX tag system rather than

Andrew, You need to log out of WU, for non-WU user that page was the entry into the WU API, for logged in WU users it takes you to your analytics page. The non-WU users it now gives a blurb about The Weather Company 'series of data packages'. They are light on detail and whilst the don't

you can do the cron task yourself with simple python program accessing the database and writing the file, triggered by cron. generating such a file only once per day is not really fitting within the scope of weewx and weewx reporting. You could write a weewx 'report', but I do not think you

[weewx-user] Re: Changing LeafWetness Values & generate DataFile

Generating a file only once per day is better suited to a simple cron task rather than weewx I suspect - and the cron task could also take care of any conversions and formatin issues for your data file. It IS possible with weewx, but weewx is really more suited to regular reporting cycles
