To install the SteelSeries Gauges extension using wee_extension you need to download steelseries-2.7.4.tar.gz package. You can usually download and install an extension from a repo zip file but in this case you can’t. The reason being the WeeWX SteelSeries skin files are maintained in the SteelSeries Weather Gauges repo (https://github.com/mcrossley/SteelSeries-Weather-Gauges) which contains the SteelSeries Weather Gauges source code as well as the files required by each of the SteelSeries Weather Gauges supported PWS software packages. The WeeWX installation of the SteelSeries Weather Gauges from this repo is a manual process and does not provide an extension package for use with wee_extension. In order to provide an extension package I decided to create a separate repo that tracks just the package installer with the necessary SteelSeries Weather Gauges files included but not tracked in the repo(I have no access to the SteelSeries Weather Gauges repo other than public access and I don’t believe it appropriate to expect the SteelSeries Weather Gauges repo owner to maintain a WeeWX extension package). Unfortunately, by default github includes a zip of the repo in any releases but in this case the zip cannot be used as it is missing the core SteelSeries Weather Gauges code. I believe this zip can be removed through a git setting, will look into that.
Suffice to say that if you follow the instructions either in the WeeWX wiki, the SteelSeries Weather Gauges repo or the SteelSeries extension repo the SteelSeries skin will be installed correctly.
