Not a simple question at all! Generally, yes, you can use something similar to the tags in your code by following the same path through the objects. For example,
$day.outTemp.latest can be obtained by using stats = weewx.tags.TimeBinder( db_lookup, timespan.stop, formatter=self.generator.formatter, converter=self.generator.converter, week_start=self.generator.stn_info.week_start, rain_year_start=self.generator.stn_info.rain_year_start, trend=trend_dict, skin_dict=self.generator.skin_dict) latest = stats.day.outTemp.latest This is basically all Cheetah is doing! Hope this helps. -tk On Sat, Jun 24, 2017 at 8:39 AM, Thomas Carlin <thomascarl...@gmail.com> wrote: > Good morning everyone, > > I have a custom search list extension that I am working on to do some > analysis on my collected data, and I have it to the point that I am pulling > the data out, and can manipulate it, but to do so, I had to define my own > timespan/binder inside my script.
