The weewx-box. That's under my control and I suppose I won't manage to have anywhere near the up time any of the others. And it should be possible to use the WF servers as a backup then. If the WF servers are down, there's really no difference from today's situation. If the hub is down I suppose absolutely nothing is working anyway. > The weewx UDP driver is designed/intended to work completely LAN-only with no need for the WF > servers. FWIW, I found the driver 'very' stable in over 24 months of running it. Yes, that's my experience as well. But the box it runs on needs updates and things happen :) Electricity may go. In that case my hub has a battery backup, so things will eventually go to the WF servers. But the UDP-only driver would get a gap. > * if you're asking if there's a weewx REST API driver for WeatherFlow gear that hits the WF servers > for data, the answer currently is noi > * f you're asking if there's some kind of hybrid UDP 'and/or' REST weewx driver, then the answer is > 'really' no, as that would be even 'more' complicated. I'm not asking that, but the latter is what I'm trying to create. Well, it's working though very much a WIP. However I have wondered as well if I should drop the UDP altogether and end up with a REST-only-driver. I haven't really decided on that yet. Maybe I'll make it configurable in an all-in-one driver.
