The intention with V5 is to cleanly separate the WeeWX code base from "user data." The latter is things such as weewx.conf, skins, the database, and, yes, any user extensions.
So, instances can share the code base, but each have their own user data area, with their own extensions (and extension.py; sorry about the name overload). Answering an earlier question on timelines: the weather is still too nice here in Oregon to spend major amounts of time on V5. Expect a release a few weeks after the rains start. :-) On Thu, Aug 31, 2023 at 7:24 AM Graham Eddy <[email protected]> wrote: > in V5 i am assuming a single station can be created but separate > weewx.conf’s used, as in V4 weewx-multi config, with the downside that they > share same extensions.py i.e. not utilising V5’s design change > > in my case, i want same codebase and python modules available to all weewx > instances but each with own extensions.py, so i have in mind to have a > weewx user whose home dir has a single venv (shared codebase with pip > install), and station create each instance (has its own extensions.py) > > i can see the case for separate venv for each station (conflicts, > independence) but i don’t require that > *⊣GE⊢* > > On 1 Sep 2023, at 12:09 am, Tom Hogland <[email protected]> wrote: > > I'm thinking of moving to v5.
