Perfect, done! Nice documentation! And, the brultech example was very
useful since it wasn't completely clear from the regular docs how to
implement get_series.
In case you're up for some feedback:
- Xtype needs a capital 'T' in the "Pressure" example: "class
Pressure(weewx.xtypes.XType):"
- It'd be nice if there were a bit more clarity in how to "register"
- the documentation doesn't clearly stay to edit user/extensions.py
- it'd be nice to give an example of how to import the user module
("import user.indewpoint" in my case")
- It'd be nice to give a simple example of querying the database. I used
the brultech example.
- Type documentation could be a bit more precise, e.g. "obs_type is the
type to be computed." Technically obs_type is a string name, not an actual
type. I know this sounds picky, but it confused me at first. If there's a
link to a list of normal values for obs_type, that would be helpful.
My code is below in case any of it would be useful for documentation.
Thanks!
Jason
P.S. The yearly plots started working overnight, but thanks for the
reminder re: deleting---I forgot that weewx will automatically recreate.
