[weewx-user] Proper/Best Way to Add Additional Ecowitt Sensors

[Blaze]

I think this is really a multipart question, but I am trying to understand 
the best/proper way to add Ecowitt soil sensors to my reports. Keeping in 
mind that I want to be able to upgrade to future releases as they come 
available with the least amount of post upgrade effort. 

*Setup*
Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS
WeeWx v4.1.1 using setup.py
gw1000-0.1.0b11
sqlite db
Seasons skin
Ecowitt GW1000 WiFi Gateway
1 Outdoor Temp Sensor
1 Indoor Temp Sensor
5 Soil Moisture Sensors (temporarily 5th sensor is broken while waiting for 
replacement)  

Out of the box everything is showing up in the Seasons' report except my 
soil moisture sensors. I do have data for the first 4 soil moisture sensors 
in the sqlite db, but nothing for 5th one.  And I can see there is no entry 
in the db for SoilMoisture sensors 5-8. So begins my adventure of learning 
more about this awesome project called WeeWx.

So I am thinking I have at least 3 tasks.

First I need to extend the db to accommodate SoilMoisture sensors 5-8?
For this task do I extend the schema by modifying the wview_extended.py and 
the wview.py to include these extra sensors in the db? Or is the better 
approach to use something like adding a new type to the database as 
described in the Customization Guide?

Second modify the reporting mechanism to show SoilMoisture in my Seasons' 
report.
I'm really uncertain for this portion. I did a grep in the /home/weewx/bin/ 
directory, and I can see several files where "soil " is referenced. Do I 
just need to add entries in these files for extra sensors?

*Command used: *
grep -iHR soil /home/weewx/bin/*

*Relevant files (or so I think) referencing the word "soil".*
/home/weewx/bin/schemas/wview.py
/home/weewx/bin/schemas/wview_extended.py
/home/weewx/bin/user/gw1000.py (this one seems to already have all the 
sensors)
/home/weewx/bin/weewx/units.py
/home/weewx/bin/weewx/restx.py

And would the last task be to update the appropriate files in 
the /home/weewx/skins/Seasons/ to actually generate the graphs I want to 
have displayed in my report?

Thanks in advance for any help or guidance.
Rob

 Luke. As Rich points out you can download a zip of the repo and that

 2.0.0. From memory I had them all sorted and then other things took me

 from publishing the release. Give me day to have a look over 2.0.0 and

Re: [weewx-user] Import from Weathercat

[gjr80]

Sorry, almost missed this one. I thought WeeWX used a vacuum somewhere but 
it seems not. (it was discussed when we were working on a database patch a 
couple of years back and I am aware of a couple of extensions that 
insert/delete data in some secondary databases that use it via  schedule). 
I had it in my mind the adding/deleting caused the bloat whereas adding 
only (as wee_import does) does not. 

I guess you did in fact do a vacuum, did it bring the size down? Happy to 
look at implementing it somehow if there is a demonstrated benefit.

[weewx-user] wsum and sumtime are different after upgrading to 4.1.1

[David Geiger]

I have been a long time user of weewx, great software!

I recently updated from 3.9.2 to 4.1.1. After the update, I noticed that my 
average yearly outTemp was different. I took a look in the database and 
noticed that after the upgrade, my wsum and sumtime are a factor of 300 
times greater than before the upgrade. Before, sumtime = 288 each day, 
after the upgrade it = 86400 each day. I noticed it in the 
archive_day_outTemp table. The average for the day is still correct, but 
when you run for a span that includes 3.9.2 and 4.1.1, the 4.1.1 far out 
weighs the 3.9.2.

I have my archive interval set to 300. It was not changed between 3.9.2 and 
4.1.1

[weewx-user] Re: Migrating/Importing WD data in MySql DB to WeeWx MySql DB

[gjr80]

Sorry can't help you with MySQL to MySQL migration. 

Regards wee_import though, yes it can be slow. When I wrote the WD import 
module the WD user who first used it in anger had something like (from 
memory) 10 years of data to import. The import had to be done in batches 
(again from memory) of 2-3 years each (wee_import uses transactions on the 
database but does keep track of duplicate timestamps and a few other things 
so memory usage does grow as the span of the import grows). I found one 
email from the user with the results of the first batch import and 1.4 
millions records were imported on a Raspberry Pi in 58 minutes. Al things 
considered I find that reasonable.

There are a couple of things you can do to speed up wee_import. You can 
tweak a the tranche setting in the import config file, this alters the size 
of the transactions (in records) that wee_import uses. The default is 250, 
you could raise this which will result in fewer db transactions but it will 
likely increase memory usage so you may need to do the import in smaller 
batches. One other approach if using a slow(ish) RPi as your WeeWX machine 
is to do just the import on a faster machine and then copy the imported 
data to the WeeWX RPi. Granted this is simpler when using SQLite but 
depending on your setup could be adapted for MySQL.

You say you have 60 000 odd MySQL records, that does not seem like much, 
how does that correlate with the number of entries in the WD log files?

[weewx-user] Re: GW1000 output and database

[gjr80]

Hi,

I think we might need a bit of clarification as to what it is you are 
trying to do. You say "inTemp is being used by another service", do you 
mean that WeeWX field inTemp is being *provided* by another service/driver 
(which has consequences for running the  GW1000 driver as as service) or do 
you mean WeeWX field inTemp is being *used* by another service (which has 
no consequences for the GW1000 driver when run as a service). Does the same 
apply for inHumidity? When you ran the GW1000 driver directly with 
--test-service there was no extraTemp2 or extraHumid2 fields and your field 
map does not map anything to these fields so I would expect extraTemp2 and 
extraHumid2 to show as N/A in any reports.

Perhaps you have a misunderstanding re the field map. The field map maps 
GW000 'fields' to WeeWX fields. The GW1000 driver uses a default field map. 
The default field map can be altered in two ways; you can replace the 
entire default field map by defining your own field map using a 
[[field_map]] stanza, or you can alter the default field map by listing 
changes to the default field map in a [[field_map_extensions]] stanza. It 
is not clear if you were attempting one of these approaches as you have no [[ 
]] level stanza in the config extra you posted. Also when defining a field 
map entry the format is:

WeeWX field name = GW1000 field name

where:
GW1000 field name is the name of the GW1000 'field' that you wish 
to map 
WeeWX field name is the WeeWX field name you wish to contain the 
data from the GW1000 'field' concerned. The WeeWX field name is the the 
field name you will use in reports etc

You can see what fields your GW1000 emits by running the GW1000 driver 
directly with the --live-data command line option (the fields shown when 
running the driver directly using the --test-service or --test-driver 
command line options are WeeWX field names, ie they have been mapped using 
the field map, fields shown using --live-data are GW1000 'fields' ie they 
are unmapped).

[weewx-user] Re: whew and gw1000

[gjr80]

Have published the WeeWX-WD 
 v2.0.0 release just 
now. Download and installation should work as per the readme. My apologies 
for the delay.

Re: [weewx-user] UnicodeDecodeError in database

[Tom Keffer]

I don't have any problem with either copy of weewx.conf that you sent to
me. Things to try:

1. This is /home/weewx/weewx.conf, right?

2. Try reading it directly:

*python -c "import configobj;
c=configobj.ConfigObj('/home/weewx/weewx.conf')"*

3. Set debug=1 in weewx.conf, then try running weewxd, then send us the
log.

[weewx-user] Migrating/Importing WD data in MySql DB to WeeWx MySql DB

[Andrew M]

I started to use the wee_import process to process all my WD log files to 
WeeWx MySqlDB, and it was taking a long time. It seems like If I have many 
years of data it will take that long to import them into WeeWx MySqlDB.

I then thought, oh wait, i already have the WD data in a MySql DB, so why 
am i doing this process.

Now I have to figure out how I can gracefully import all the WD data I have 
in a MySQL DB to the one I set up for WeeWx. Both are on the same hosted 
server. Different DB names.

There is one table for WD and multiple tables for WeeWx so  have no idea on 
where to begin with this. I have ~60,000 rows of data in the WD MySQL DB 
table.

Does anyone have a graceful way of migrating the WD MySQL DB into a WeeWX 
DB?

Am I overlooking something in the documentation or in group?

Thank you.

[weewx-user] GW1000 output and database

[Timothy Buchanan]

I installed GW1000 as a service and the test-service command gives this 
output:

dateTime: 1597861672, dummyTemp: 96.3, extraHumid1: 26, extraTemp1: 85.1, 
inHumidity: 33, inTemp: 75.74, pressure: 22.2360805875, relbarometer: 
753.0, soilMoist1: 15, usUnits: 1, wh31_ch1_batt: 0, wh51_ch1_batt: 0

In weewx.conf, I put this list of options:

[GW1000]
driver = user.gw1000
inTemp = extraTemp2
inHumidity = extraHumid2
extraTemp1 = extraTemp1
extraHumid1 = extraHumid1
soilMoist1 = soilMoist1
pressure = ""

I chose these because inTemp is being used by another service. When I tried 
to use the data in my skin (modified exfoliation), I found that extraTemp2 
and extraHumid2 are shown as NA. The other values are displayed. What did I 
do wrong here? Thanks for any help.

[weewx-user] Belchertown gets year summary wrong

[ba...@kdbarto.org]

I've only had data since early March, I just added the Year summary 
([[avgclimatethisyear]] from the 
https://github.com/poblabs/weewx-belchertown/wiki/Belchertown-Charts-Documentation#average-climate-values-chart)
 
and it is starting from January. So even though the data reported is 
correct, the month is wrong.

Any idea how to fix that one?

http://www.kdbarto.org/weather/belchertown/graphs/?graph=year

On a side note - is there anyplace where I can find a "complete list" of 
all the possible graphs that Belchertown, or the default skin for weewx 
supports out of the box?

RE: [weewx-user] UnicodeDecodeError in database

[David Marshall]

Hi Tom

1. Yes wee_database
2. Yes same path different  copies
3. No edits – in fact I tried not to change anything in the final install apart 
from setting it to simulator.

I attach the last version of weewx.conf, which is still producing the error.

1. All these attempts were with running wee_database? Or, something else?

2. I assume all these different attempts used the same path, namely 
/home/weewx/weewx.conf. And, we're sure they used different copies (albeit, at 
the same path location)? 

3. It's hard to explain how fresh, untouched versions of weewx.conf are all 
getting the same error. Are you editing these copies before running?

Can you send me the offending weewx.conf to my personal email? tkeffer at

Tried your code to show the offending line but nothing appears. Then tried a 
clean weewx.conf from the install folder but still the same error message. Then 
tried a full reinstall, but still the same error.
Then tried it with the the default database using simulator and still the same 
error - so you are right it is not my database. What next?

Somehow, your copy of weewx.conf got corrupted. One of the lines has a 
character sequence that starts out as a utf-8 encoding, but the following byte 
is not what was expected. 

Unfortunately, the error does not tell you which line the bad character 
sequence is in, only that it is in byte position 26 of that line. Perhaps this 
will help (NOT TESTED):

od -x -A d weewx.conf | grep e0

This should print out the line and offending sequence.

weewx.conf
Description: Binary data

Re: [weewx-user] UnicodeDecodeError in database

[Tom Keffer]

1. All these attempts were with running wee_database? Or, something else?

2. I assume all these different attempts used the same path, namely
/home/weewx/weewx.conf. And, we're sure they used different copies (albeit,
at the same path location)?

3. It's hard to explain how fresh, untouched versions of weewx.conf are all
getting the same error. Are you editing these copies before running?

Can you send me the offending weewx.conf to my personal email? tkeffer at
gmail.com

Re: [weewx-user] UnicodeDecodeError in database

[David Marshall]

Thanks Tom

Tried your code to show the offending line but nothing appears. Then tried 
a clean weewx.conf from the install folder but still the same error 
message. Then tried a full reinstall, but still the same error.
Then tried it with the the default database using simulator and still the 
same error - so you are right it is not my database. What next?

Re: [weewx-user] UnicodeDecodeError in database

[Tom Keffer]

The decode error is actually in your configuration file, weewx.conf, and
not in the database.

Somehow, your copy of weewx.conf got corrupted. One of the lines has a
character sequence that starts out as a utf-8 encoding, but the following
byte is not what was expected.

Unfortunately, the error does not tell you which line the bad character
sequence is in, only that it is in byte position 26 of that line. Perhaps
this will help (NOT TESTED):

*od -x -A d weewx.conf | grep e0*

This should print out the line and offending sequence.

[weewx-user] UnicodeDecodeError in database

[David Marshall]

Hi

Installed a fresh version of weewx 4.1.1 without problem using setup.py on 
a raspberry.

Transferred my existing sqlite database from weewx 3.9.1. It is big, about 
3 years of data. This worked fine.

But when I tried to use reconfigure I got the following error

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ /home/weewx/bin/wee_database --reconfigure 
/home/weewx/archive/weewx.sdb
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/weewx/bin/wee_database", line 974, in 
main()
  File "/home/weewx/bin/wee_database", line 128, in main
config_path, config_dict = weecfg.read_config(options.config_path, args)
  File "/home/weewx/bin/weecfg/__init__.py", line 179, in read_config
default_encoding='utf-8')
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/configobj.py", line 1229, in __init__
self._load(infile, configspec)
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/configobj.py", line 1287, in _load
content = self._handle_bom(content)
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/configobj.py", line 1437, in 
_handle_bom
return self._decode(infile, self.encoding)
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/configobj.py", line 1517, in _decode
infile[i] = line.decode(encoding)
UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xe0 in position 26: 
invalid continuation byte

Anyone know how to fix this?

Re: [weewx-user] Re: Staging Area to Experiment?

[Andy Sloane]

Personally, I was thinking of using VirtualBox to create  a RHEL VM on my
PC, and then installing it on that.  Maybe use vagrant to get it off the
ground and make sure I can rinse and repeat.

Re: [weewx-user] weewx and extreme value

[Tom Keffer]

You can filter out extreme values and prevent them from reaching the
database. See the section *StdQC
* in the User's Guide.

As for fixing values in the database, see the wiki article *Cleaning up old
'bad' data *
.

You cannot often see the moon during the daytime - so when it rises in the 
nmorning you tend not to see it

[weewx-user] Moonrise and Moonset strange

['Hans Cilker' via weewx-user]

Hallo Together,
i am Running WeeWX version 4.1.1. When i take a look at the datas for 
Moonrise and moonset, it seams to be strange, Moonrise:  06:11:23 and 
Moonset:  21:22:48. In this cases i could just change the Lable, but 
highest point of the moon at 13:56:18is not to solve with changing the 
lable. I have taken a look at som stations around, i found no one with the 
right lable. Anybody an idea whats to do to solve this problem?
Best wishes
Hans
