Re: [weewx-user] Re: wee_database backfill only a range of dates
It turns out I had a backup dir of an older version and I was looking at that version of the script. Probably a good reminder of not to look at things late at night. :-) Thank you for the replies.

Constantine - doesn't this (for current version [3.7] of weewx) do exactly what you require? http://weewx.com/docs/utilities.htm#wee_database_utility where in the documentation on the weewx website did you read otherwise?

One of the features of the 3.7.0 wee_database was that users could now rebuild a limited period of their daily summaries using the --rebuild-daily command line option through use of the --date or --from and --to command line options. The paradigm of dropping the daily summaries then rebuilding (old term backfilling) them has been discarded and you can just rebuild them without dropping first. It should not matter what is or is not in the daily summary tables, if it does then I would say that is a bug. > Is there a way to do this currently with wee_database or do I need to get > an older version of the script?
