My understanding of the correct way is to install your extension to the 
skin root and then use the 'copy_once' feature in skin.conf to get those 
files to get into the docroot when weewx starts up. 

For an example of one of my extensions, see 
 
https://github.com/vinceskahan/vds-weewx-local-skin/blob/master/skins/vds-local/skin.conf
 
(line 40 or so) and the matching installer script that's at 
https://github.com/vinceskahan/vds-weewx-local-skin/blob/master/install.py 
as well.   It's worked well for me for several years that way FWIW.
