Always Wished WeeWX Could Send Alerts? Now you can!

[mlewi...@gmail.com]

As a longtime user of WeeWX, I always wished it had a way to alert me if the temperature was above or below a certain value or there was a high gust of wind. As an exercise in learning to use AI to augment my development abilities and create something that would be useful to me and the community.

So developed an application that can send alerts via Pushover based on MQTT messages. It has a spiffy Web UI, rate limiting and allows for alerts on any data exposed via MQTT.

If you are interested, you can check it out on  GitHub:
mlewis26201/WeeWX-MQTT-Alerter: Application for sending alerts based on weather data from WeeWX via MQTT

Its setup to use Docker, so you will need that, but the Python scripts are there too if you can run them.

Hopefully some of you will find this useful.
