Subject: Re: [weewx-user] Looking for guidance on how to modify the Current 
Conditions section of the 'main page' of WeeWx

 

I'm sorry, but I'm not seeing the connection to adding new types to HTML pages. 
Am I missing something? Is a new type involved?

I just purchased the BCRobotics board and tried to install the required 
software for it. I ran into problems when I tried to test the BME280 using the 
Adafruit ADS1x15 library. Kept getting errors and the python Adafruit_BME280 
library is deprecated. 

 

Instead of trying to fix the errors I went the hard way and upgraded to the 
adafruit-circuitpython libraries so I can also run Python3

 

sudo pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-bme280

 

sudo pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-ads1x15

 

I then modified the BCRobotics-test-app.py to run under Python3 and the 
upgraded Adafruit libraries.

Tested the program and it works!

 

I have attached the modified program.

 

I need to modify the driver to work the same as the updated code but not sure 
how to do that. Can I just substitute the same modifications that I made to the 
test program? 

 

Thanks

Terry

The Cheetah template for "Current Conditions" is the file 
/etc/weewx/skins/Seasons.current.inc. When the processing of templates occurs, 
it will get "included" into index.html.tmpl.

 

So, if you wanted to add the current conditions for a new type, say something 
named 'myobs', to the bottom of the list of observations, you would add the 
highlighted lines

 

...

#if $day.extraTemp3.has_data
      <tr>
        <td class="label">$obs.label.extraTemp3</td>
        <td class="data">$current.extraTemp3</td>
      </tr>
#end if

      <tr>

        <td class="label">My new observation</td>

        <td class="data">$current.myobs

      </tr>
    </tbody>
  </table>

 

 

This assumes, of course, that the type 'myobs' exists in the database and/or 
the archive record.

I apologize for not having come up with the answer on my own.  I have 
gone through the User and Customization guides and am just not finding 
clear guidance as to what to do, despite there being a lot of info in 
those documents.


What I want to do is add a line to the collection of items in the left 
hand "Current Condtions" list.  This section preceeds the "Celestial" 
and "High Low" portions of that column, and lies to the left of the 
graphs for the day.

 From my reading, I assumed that the area I was looking for would be in 
the /etc/weewx/skins/Seasons directory, in the 'skins.conf' file.  Yet 
as I scan through there I cannot find a series of entries that matches 
the fixed output that would then have the data to display and formatting 
info right after it.

I've looked at the Standard report, and the skins.conf there, and 
haven't found what I'm looking for.

Despite fiddling with this for a couple weeks trying to figure it out on 
my own, I'm just not making the connection or am really looking in the 
wrong spot.


Where does this section of the home page get formatted and while I think 
I know what I want to add so it shows up as the temperature change from 
24 hours ago, don't just want to start changing things which would no 
doubt give an error if not done carefully.

Can someone give me a hint as to what I'm missing to find the correct file?

Dale
