Thanks for your reply. I know about that option, but it is a bit more complicated for my setup. Instead, I have used great weewx documentation and examples and customized the FileParse example driver which reads from the file. I could extend it to get data from the ecowitt cloud directly but for now it does exactly what I need.
There is one more question though. All except* the rain* values are easy to log and present. I don't know how to log and then present the rain. From the ecowitt cloud I can read rainrate, daily rain, weekly, monthly and yearly rain. Shall I log all these to the weewx.sdb? I took a look at the gw1000 driver but my python knowledge is not sufficient to understand it.
