Hello everybody,
There is issue and maybe an improvement that could be done in the driver
but I'm not sure to understand correctly.
My understanding is that:
def __init__(self, **stn_dict): is executed at weewx start
while :
def genLoopPackets(self): is executed at each packet lookp
The issue is that the mqtt connect is only in __init__ therefore, if weewx
gets disconnected from mqtt (ex: if I restart mosquitto), weewx stops
receiving packets.
would it make sense to add at the beginning of def genLoopPackets(self):
something like (NOT PYTHON, just principle example)
if not(self.client.isConnected())
then
self.client.subscribe(self.topic, qos=0)
self.client.connect(self.host, 1883, 60)
or maybe it could be used only .reconnect() ?
Here is the driver link for reference:
