Re: [weewx-user] twitter extension: Able to insert a return/new line?
Ah, I was tried triple quotes but with /n. But yes, configobj is the issue. Gary -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.

Re: [weewx-user] twitter extension: Able to insert a return/new line?
If the problem is configobj, then use triple quotes, without the \n:
format = """{station} {dateTime:%H:%M %b %d %Y}:
T: {outTemp:%.1f}ºC
D: {dewpoint:%.1f}ºC"""

The logged line is the string that is passed to Twython to post as a tweet.
The issue is that when parsing a config file configobj does not convert \n
to a linefeed escape sequence but rather it escapes the \n (ie \\n) so that
we end up with a literal \n sequence in the returned string (more generally
configobj converts any escape sequence to literal characters - which is why
using #0a in the format config option did not work either) . Twython,
twitter or whatever ultimately URL encodes this and we end up with a plain \
followed by a n, ie no linefeed. On the other hand, _DEFAULT_FORMAT is a
python string with embedded \n escape sequence and the escape sequence
flows through twitter.py and Twython or twitter URL encodes this escape
sequence as a linefeed and consequently you get the formatted tweet you
seek. A solution that allows the use of a user defined format config option
that supports linefeeds is to intercept the format in the config dict
returned by configobj and replace the literal \n sequence with \n escape
sequence back in. It feels a little hackish to me as it is \n specific but
the adding the highlighted lines to twitter.py (circa line 180) should do
the trick:
if usn is not None:
site_dict['unit_system'] = weewx.units.unit_constants[usn]
loginf('units will be converted to %s' % usn)
try:
site_dict['format'] = site_dict['format'].replace('\\n','\n')
except:
pass
site_dict.setdefault('format', self._DEFAULT_FORMAT)
site_dict.setdefault('format_None', self._DEFAULT_FORMAT_NONE)
site_dict.setdefault('format_utc', False)
Of course _DEFAULT_FORMAT should be set back to its original setting and
the format config option under [[Twitter]] now supports the use of \n to
insert a new line in the tweet. Note there is no need to enclose the format
config
option in any quotes and of course weeWX will need to be restarted for the
changes to take effect.
I will caveat this with I do not use Twitter nor have I tested this on
Twitter.

Thanks for this.
No luck. It appears the direct editing of the default format variable in
twitter.py is best.

Doesn't seem to parse when used in the format option in weewx.conf just
spits out the characters it is given... I'll look into mangling the

Success!
I shifted focus to the _DEFAULT_FORMAT value in the twitter.py file
directly rather than the weewx.conf file and the first and simplest option
works!
The \n escape sequence works to create a new line.
This:
_DEFAULT_FORMAT = '{station} {dateTime:%H:%M %b %d %Y}:\nT:
{outTemp:%.1f}C\nD: {dewpoint:%.1f}C\nW: {windDir:ORD} {windSpeed:%.1f}kph

I had degree symbols in the string originally, which killed weewx when I
tried to use them in the DEFAULT value. So I took those out and it works
fine now. I'll see if I can use a character encoding to get the degree
symbol, but it's not a deal breaker. The main goal has been fulfilled,
even if it is a little hack-ish :)
BTW: I also thought it might have been a double quote vs. single quote
problem in the weewx.conf but still no love when I tried that, so I will
settle on this solution.
Thanks again for everyones help. I will post again if I get degree symbols
in there. :)

Doesn't seem to parse when used in the format option in weewx.conf just
spits out the characters it is given... I'll look into mangling the
twitter.py file perhaps.

It just doesn't seem to want to parse any of the characters in the strings.
I did some searching around and it certainly looks like, from examples like
this:
https://gist.github.com/dangayle/c211c1af232974f00564
def tweet(sentence):
"""Tweet sentence to Twitter."""
try:
sys.stdout.write("{} {}\n".format(len(sentence), sentence))
twitter.update_status(status=sentence)
except:
pass
That twython is capable of sending "new lines" to twitter. And of course
python is able to have new lines within strings. Is it perhaps some way in
how the .conf file is being parsed that does not allow these characters
through properly?
Just throwing that out there as an idea, no idea whatsoever if it has any
merit. :)
Thanks for all the suggestions.

Re: [weewx-user] twitter extension: Able to insert a return/new line?
I think I got it wrong and it should be rather than
and also I
would have thought more like
format = "{station} {dateTime:%H:%M %b %d %Y
}: T: {outTe
or
format = "{station} {dateTime:%H:%M %b %d %Y}: T: {outTe
really clutching at straws though!!
good luck

Re: [weewx-user] twitter extension: Able to insert a return/new line?
Thanks for the mental push on ‘the whole twitter section”. I’ve figured out the
day rain issue.
I was using METRIC rather than METRICWX so dayRain was reporting in cm rather
than mm. Since it was a small amount of rain… it was reporting 0.0cm. We’ve
subsequently had almost 20mm of rain today, which means there is enough to
notice the units mixup.
Here is the successful wview.conf including the formatting used for the tweet
below:
station = Hourly Auto-Tweet
unit_system = METRICWX
post_interval = 3600
format_None = *
format = "{station} {dateTime:%H:%M %b %d %Y}: T: {outTemp:%.1f}ºC D:
{dewpoint:%.1f}ºC W: {windDir:ORD} {windSpeed:%.1f}kph gusting to

So that is good.
Unfortunately, I have not found a solution to the original request of inserting
a new line. But I am willing to let it go and chalk it up to a limitation of
twython. :)
Thank you all for your help and suggestions.
