[weewx-user] weewx stopped working
I recently moved and my had a bit of difficulty with my new ISP Provider. (is that redundant?) Anyway after updating my operating system weewx stopped working. I'm hoping someone can have a quick look at my log and see what's going on.

[weewx-user] Data transfer from weewx
I am trying to get some weather data out of weewx. In the past I have used this scheme: Created a new template called temp.txt.tmpl in the etc/weewx/skins/Standard directory. It's only content is: $current.outTemp In the skin.conf file under [CheetahGenerator] tucked in under [[ToDate]] I added: [[[temp.txt]]] # Report that makes current outTemp available to other program encoding = strict_ascii template = temp.txt.tmpl >From that I expected to see the data in /var/www/html/weewx/temp.txt In the past this has worked... but not now? I recently replaced my weather station with a Vantage and fresh install of Buster, weewx on a Rbpi3+ It all work well right out of the box! Except for the above mentioned issue.

[weewx-user] Re: WH1080 replacement?
I'm kind of in the same boat... My WH1080 which worked great for about 5 years finally died. I'm looking for something to use as a direct replacement. I'm NOT A PROGRAMER and only got weeWx/Rpi3 to communicate with the console through the gracious and patient help of a weewx group contributor (THANKS Vince!). The thought of trying to get a sniffer working is just to much to ask of anyone! Does anyone have a recommendation?

[weewx-user] Re: degree symbol not showing?
Gary,
Thanks for the response! When I installed weewx (DEB package) I never set
up an archive. Maybe that's the problem?
As you may surmise... I'm mostly just a hack... no programing experience!
But I'm learning... albeit SLOWLY.
I guess I'll look into setting up an archive.
Thanks again for your suggestion!
Happy Thanksgiving!

Re: [weewx-user] degree symbol not showing?
Sorry.. Rpi3b running latest Raspbian. Installed from DEB package. I have
modified the Standard skin.conf file with:
[[[temp.txt]]]
# Report that makes current outTemp available to other program
encoding = strict_ascii
template = temp.txt.tmpl
and the temp.txt.tmpl file looks like:
$current.dateTime
$current.outTemp.format("%.1f")
$trend.outTemp
and the txt file generated looks like:
11/22/2016 06:30:00 PM
37.6F
-4.2F
Thanks for any insight!

Re: [weewx-user] Noob question... where to find the actual data (temp) within weewx?
Gary, Thanks! and yes I did read the entire weewx/docs guide... however it was very early into trying to implement weewx and before I had much understanding of how weewx worked. I should (and will) re-read the documentation now that I have a little better understanding of how things work.

Moving on: If I add $ordnates.windDir to the .tmpl file should I get a Cardinal or Ordinal return? Thanks again.

Re: [weewx-user] Noob question... where to find the actual data (temp) within weewx?
As I understand it, $current.outTemp represents a string variable the value of which should be the outside temperature. When I try to view the value (echo $current.outTemp ) I dose't work. I've tried a few other schemes as well, like making a shell script that does this: #!/bin/bash current_outTemp=$current.outTemp echo $current_outTemp Can you give me an idea of how to accomplish this?

Re: [weewx-user] Noob question... where to find the actual data (temp) within weewx?
This is what I have added to skin.config [[ToDate]] # Reports that show statistics "to date", such as day-to-date, # week-to-date, month-to-date, etc. [[[day]]] template = index.html.tmpl [[[temp.txt]]] # Report that makes current outTemp availibal to other program encoding = strict_ascii template = temp.txt.tmpl [[[week]]] template = week.html.tmpl [[[month]]] template = month.html.tmpl [[[year]]] template = year.html.tmpl Does the temp.txt.tmpl file require special formatting? Right now this is what it contains: $current.outTemp THANKS!!!

Re: [weewx-user] Noob question... where to find the actual data (temp) within weewx?
Tom and Andrew, I have created a new template called temp.txt.tmpl in the etc/weewx/skins/Standard directory. It's only content is: $current.outTemp In the skin.conf file under [CheetahGenerator] I added: [[temp.txt]] # Report that makes current outTemp available to other program encoding = strict_ascii template = temp.txt.tmpl Am I on the right track?

[weewx-user] Re: Noob question... where to find the actual data (temp) within weewx?
Ok... Maybe if I ask the question in a more clear form... Can someone explain how I can pass the current outdoor temp to a variable so I can us it in another program?

Yep! That's it. THANKS! I installed it using the DEB package.

[weewx-user] BASIC question regarding config file
Does the config file get read once during start up or is it poled continuously? If I make a change in the config file do I have to stop and start weewx?
