1, It looks like the byows_pi extension does not use the extension installer, so weewx has no way of knowing of its existence. This is why it doesn't show up in the list of available drivers.
2. As for running byows_pi directly, you have a slight problem with your paths. Try either this cd /usr/share/weewx python user/byows_rpi.py or this cd /usr/share/weewx python -m user.byows_rpi -tk On Sat, Jul 23, 2022 at 6:12 AM Jan Bennett <[email protected]> wrote: > I should also note that when I 'sudo wee_config --reconfigure > --driver=user.byows_rpi --no-prompt' I see the following: > > Using configuration file /home/weewx/weewx.conf > Driver user.byows_rpi failed to load: name 'weewx' is not defined > > On Saturday, July 23, 2022 at 7:07:55 AM UTC-6 Jan Bennett wrote: > >> Hey all - >> >> I am trying to install the driver for the Build Your Own Weather Station >> using Raspberry pi (byows_rpi.py) >> >> I have updated weewx-config to include BYOWS.
