Hello I just wanted to say thank you for this, I recently decided to rationalise my two Rasp Pi's into one. One of them was running weewx using the Interceptor driver to read my weather station meanwhile the other Rasp Pi ran OWFS which weewx then read across the network to grab a couple of extra temperature sensors. Decided to use 1-wire directly on the GPIO of the same Rasp Pi as runs weewx.
Tried OWFS with w1 as a source but it was turning out to be a bit of a nightmare just for reading 2x sensors so found your code instead. Had to change the line [code] except Exception, e: [/code] to [code] except Exception as e: [/code] and obviously add my own sensors to both services "greenhousetemp.py and heaksinktemp.py" My two sensors are in the greenhouse: one for the ambient temperature and the other poked down an exit hole from the heatsink ballast shingle under the floor. With this I think I could probably add a soil moisture sensor pretty easily. Anyway just wanted to say thanks!
