Hello !

I have added a few observations to my weewx.
I use a battery  and a solar panel to supply my sensor, so I added Vbat, 
Isolar, Vsolar.

This is working for a few month as unitless values (I can draw graph, use 
cheetah labels like $day.Isolar.max, all is fine).

Now I would like to use suitable units.


let's start slowly, so I followed the documentation of voltage, because 
group_volt already exists :-)
I read here:  
http://www.weewx.com/docs/customizing.htm#Assigning_a_unit_group

and created a file:
/usr/share/weewx/user/electricity.py

containing:
import weewx
from weewx.engine import StdService

import weewx.units
weewx.units.obs_group_dict['Vbat']    = 'group_volt'
weewx.units.obs_group_dict['Vsolar']  = 'group_volt'
#weewx.units.obs_group_dict['WVbat']   = 'group_volt'
#weewx.units.obs_group_dict['WVsolar'] = 'group_volt'

class AddElectricity(StdService):

WVbat / WVsolar are not used yet (not in database), it will be my vbat & 
Vsolar values for wind sensor that I have not finished to develop yet.
I commented to avoid issues as those 2 are not yet in database schema.

I prepared my file based on the example from documentation:

import weewx
from weewx.engine import StdService

import weewx.units
weewx.units.obs_group_dict['electricity'] = 'group_energy'

class AddElectricity(StdService): # [...]

But then, I wonder how it should be said to weewx that this new file is 
here, waiting for processing? 

I assume it's probably need to add something in [engine] section of 
weewx.conf.
I tried the following without sucess (added in dat_services)


[Engine]

    [[Services]]
        # This section specifies the services that should be run. They are
        # grouped by type, and the order of services within each group
        # determines the order in which the services will be run.
        prep_services = weewx.engine.StdTimeSynch
        data_services = user.electricity.AddElectricity
        process_services = weewx.engine.StdConvert, weewx.engine.
StdCalibrate, weewx.engine.StdQC, weewx.wxservices.StdWXCalculate
        archive_services = weewx.engine.StdArchive
        restful_services = weewx.restx.StdStationRegistry, weewx.restx.
StdWunderground, weewx.restx.StdAWEKAS, user.windy.Windy
        #restful_services = weewx.restx.StdStationRegistry, 
weewx.restx.StdWunderground, weewx.restx.StdPWSweather, 
weewx.restx.StdCWOP, weewx.restx.StdWOW, weewx$
        report_services = weewx.engine.StdPrint, weewx.engine.StdReport


help welcome :-)
