Formatting stats.py extension

[Mike Revitt]

I am successfully running the stats.py extension as detailed here http://www.weewx.com/docs/customizing.htm#defining_new_tags and am now trying to format the output.

The output is displayed in statistics.html using the syntax shown below

<table>

    <tr>

        <td>Maximum temperature to date: </td>

        <td>$alltime.outTemp.max</td>

    </tr>

    <tr>

        <td>Minimum temperature to date: </td>

        <td>$alltime.outTemp.min

    </tr>

    <tr>

        <td>Rain over the last seven days: </td>

        <td>$seven_day.rain.sum

    </tr>

</table>

and I created 2 new tags in weewx.conf expecting this to change the format as shown below

            [[[[TimeFormats]]]]

                

                hour        = %H:%M

                day         = %H:%M

                seven_day   = %H:%M on %a

                week        = %H:%M on %a

                month       = %a %d %H:%M

                year        = %a %d-%b %H:%M

                rainyear    = %d-%b-%Y %H:%M

                alltime     = %A %d-%b-%Y %H:%M

                current     = %a %d-%b-%Y %H:%M

                ephem_day   = %H:%M

                ephem_year  = %d-%b-%Y %H:%M

However whilst the day, week and year tags are being used seven_day and alltime are being ignored. The output that is using used is the current format.

Anyone know what I am doing wrong?

For this to work, you would need to specify your new 'contexts' in the constructor to TimespanBinder. Something like this (NOT TESTED):

        # First, create TimespanBinder object for all time. This one is easy
        # because the object timespan already holds all valid times to be
        # used in the report.
        all_stats = TimespanBinder(timespan,
                                   db_lookup,

                                   context='alltime',
                                   formatter=self.generator.formatter,
                                   converter=self.generator.converter,
                                   skin_dict=self.generator.skin_dict)       # 4

See if that helps.
