[weewx-user] Installation difficulties

[Keith Stathem]

I installed Weewx on a TPLink WDR4300 (with external storage), following 
the weewx on openwrt  
instructions; now I am working on the interceptor 
 driver to get data from 
my acurite bridge. It won't run in listen mode because the router interface 
is using port 80, and when I try to install pypcap it gives me this:
root@WDR4300:~# pip install pypcap

Here is my log.  I set the time correctly on the Davis then started WeeWx

[weewx-user] Re: Who is using what Weather Station

[Ian Millard]

Ok. First of all you can find the template here: - 
https://weather34.com/homeweatherstation/

The template is developed mainly for Cumulus by Brian Underdown who is very 
helpful. It is very easy to setup for WeeWX use by using the CRT extension to 
generate a Cumulus style realtime.txt file which then drives the template. I 
switched the WeeWX database to MySQL because that was what I am used to, SQLite 
is not a problem. The WeeWX plots on the menu selection are actually the charts 
generated with the standard WeeWX skin, just resized and coloured to match the 
weather34 template. Click the link on each chart pops up a larger image. The 
chart links on the panels of the homepage are driven by sql queries to the 
WeeWX database. I did a few more bits of customisation here and there to make 
it more friendly for my own purposes.

Everything is run on a single RaspberryPi3 - WeeWX, template, webcam and 
timelapse generation, web server (LAMP), Myphpadmin, and Webmin.

I am planning to produce a detailed ‘how to’ at the request of others but if 
you need more details in the meantime just let me know.

[weewx-user] Re: How can I use WeeWx without a weather standard station

[gjr80]

Was on the iPad before and it is somewhat labour intensive to find/include 
links. The file parse driver should be in the examples/fileparse directory 
of your weeWX install (where these directories are located will depend on 
your install, /home/weewx for a setup.py install, /usr/share/doc/weewx for 
a .deb install - Where to find things 
 is a helpful 
resource for, well, where to find things on your weeWX install). There is a 
brief 
mention of fileparse in the Customization Guide 
, plus if you look in the 
file parse driver file, fileparse.py, you will find some install/config 
instructions in the comments at the start of the file. It is a very basic 
driver so there is not much to it. Another useful resource is searching the 
forums, I seem to recall a number of folks with arduinos or the like have 
used the fileparse driver.

Hi Gary,
many thanks for your suggestion ! Import is definetly not my first choice 
but my first try :) I was looking for something like a file-parser driver, 
but I didn't find that information until now. Can you send me a link or 
probably example code as well?
Looking forward to your answer :))

ok - that's about the slickest looking dashboard I've seen for weewx.  Tell 
us more 

In particular - does it work with sqlite3 and what did you need to do to 
integrate with weewx ?

Also try using the HP1000 extension rather than the interceptor. I have found 
it much more reliable and easier to setup.

I am running an HP1000 (WS1001) clone using the HP1000 and CRT extensions, 
RaspberryPi 3, Debian9 and a heavily customised version of Brian Underdown’s

[weewx-user] Re: How can I use WeeWx without a weather standard station

[gjr80]

Hi,

I know that you may well have good reason, but rather than manipulating the 
weeWX database itself or running wee_import (I am guessing this is what you 
mean when you refer to 'the import function') to import data, have you 
considered running weeWX with something like the file_parse driver? The 
file_parse driver reads data from a formatted text file and the weeWX machinery 
then takes care of importing, processing and storing your data as well as 
running reports. No need to run wee_import and no need to run wee_reports.

Whilst the weeWX database structure is not particularly complex, the process to 
maintain accurate and consistent data in the various database tables is complex 
and experience has shown that those who attempt to externally update the 
database often run into problems, either knowingly or unknowingly.

Just thought an alternative, and perhaps less complex, approach needed to be 
voiced.

Gary

Your problem is probably, although not necessarily, that the MySQL server
has not started. Try starting it.

However, if you have limited Linux experience, you should not be using a
MySQL database. Stick with the sqlite database that comes with weeWX. It's
much simpler and more intuitive to administer.

Thanks Tom K,
I very much appreciate your support. It is very kind of you to help.
I know I have to study more and spend more time learning by doing. I am so

I think I am getting closer day by day but now I got a new issue I do not

[weewx-user] Re: How can I use WeeWx without a weather standard station

[Gucky]

Many thanks to all of you, your help is highly appreciated, as it brings me 
up to speed in understanding weewx. So far I could follow all of your 
comments and it works well for me. As I'm progressing, more follow-up 
questions appear :)

Here comes my next one: Using the import function, this required user 
interaction and confirming with "y", that I wish to continue. How can I 
pass the "y" parameter in batch-mode?

[weewx-user] How I can display current data from Davis vantage pro 2 on Pi terminal using weewx and pyqt or Tkinter

[Joush]

Hi everyone,

I have a Davis vantage pro2 (firmware 1.6)
I tried weewx and like it so much.
I wonder if there is a way to display some of data (temperature, 
barometer...) from Davis on Raspberry Pi's terminal or GUI using vnctight?

I guess it can be done by reading data from sql, but i don't know how to do 
it.
Can anyone help me with it?

Thank you,

All of the weeWX utilities, including wee_reports, get their configuration
information from ​weewx.conf. So, wee_reports will use the database
selected by option 'database' in subsection [[wxbinding]].

[weewx-user] Re: How can I use WeeWx without a weather standard station

[Gucky]

When running the reports, I see one entry in syslog saying 
"cheetagenerator: generated 14 files for report StandardReport in 3.68 
seconds" 
and
Imagegenerator: generated 12 images for StandardReport in 0.66 seconds
and
copygenerator: copied 14 files to ...weewx/public_html

Interesting, now the new files are there :)), Don't know why, I simply ran 
the report again to watch the syslog  :))

How does the report generator know, which database to use? I have installed 
and configured mysql parrelel to sqlite following the description in the 
manual. I cannot find any infor how to disable sqlite.
Many thanks for link to the "intake strategies", I will study that 
carefulley.
Bear with me, it may take a while, I'm not a native speaker of English :)

"the vast majority of the users here are running everything with a Pi"

That's interesting.  Is it true?  Not in my case; I'm in the 
inconsequential minority.

To OP: I am running a Davis Vantage Pro 2.  I originally used an Oregon 
Scientific WMR-200A but I had too many problems with it performing 
reliably.  I am in favor of cost-effectiveness, but when the effectiveness 
of the solution is questionable... I upgraded.

Thanks for your quick answer. I have cleaned up the mysql database and left

Then I have imported some data to mysql using weewx-import function. Data 
are imported property to mysql database.
Then I ran the wee_reports. Unfortunately the graphics in the web interface

[weewx-user] Re: How can I use WeeWx without a weather standard station

[Andrew Milner]

If you are loading the database yourself then you can just use cron to run 
wee_reports say every 5 minutes - and the html pages will be generated 
every 5 minutes for you - no need to run weewx itself.

Any help??

[weewx-user] How can I use WeeWx without a weather standard station

[Gucky]

I have a Raspberry Pi and Arduinos collecting weather data and I would like 
to use Weews software to visualize my data. I'm not using a weather station.
I have already enabled a mysql database in weewx and when running the 
simulator, mysql is properly populated with data.
My approach is to use the import function of weewx to import data from my 
sensors an get the internal calculations etc. properly done.

Question: As I don't want the data from the simulator, what do I need to 
configure to get my sensor data visualized?

Thanks a lot for your help !
