I switched my weewx box running the beta over to the new extended schema. This is great stuff.
Here's an example of what you can do with it. This is a grafana dashboard overlaying maxSolarRad as calculated by weewx with sensor readings from three different WeatherFlow stations. It's more data for the vendor to help tweak their sensors 'continuous learning' tunings. (I'm a beta tester) New weewx systems running v4 will get the new extended schema by default. Existing weewx systems have a few steps to update to the new schema, if you choose to do so: - stop weewx - wee_database --reconfigure - wee_database --rebuld-daily - copy the modified db into place - start weewx The two wee_database commands take quite some time depending on your hardware and amount of data. On my Seagate Dockstar (super old pogoplug clone basically with all ram used) it took over 90 minutes to reconfigure the db. I have 11 years of data however, so it's a lot of records. When I did the same thing in a VM running on my i3 NUC and it took only 3 minutes. The rebuild_daily also took 3 minutes there. I then copied the file back to my wimpy weewx system and it ran just fine. Bottom line, throw hardware at the conversion if you can, if you have lots of old data. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.
