Weewx mqtt

[kufuu]

I just found that weewx mqtt if it takes a reading at 1:00pm and another at 1:10pm and at 1:20, it wont post the data from 1:00pm till it reads the 1:20pm , its always 1 reading behind, station sends the packet every 10 mins. Can that be changed ?

Probably, but it might be your system. Make sure you are up to date,
and post again with what you are really doing, and details. including a
mosquitto_sub command and debug output. Not trying to be unkind, but if
you can debug it you can fix it, and if not, it will likely stay broken
until somebody who can debug does so. I haven't seen other reports, and
this doesn't happen to me, so it is also possible there is something
else locally wrong, in which case nobody else will debug it.

In Davis, there is the idea that archive records are generated at 15s
past the time, to deal with station clock skew. You need to be clear on
that happening vs just mqtt.

ok, my weather station is a pico enviro weather, I have it to send the data every 10 mins to a pi zero-w using weewx and is up to date along with raspberry os, here is a packet

I reboot the pi zero-w and seen it didnt add the files to database till it ran the second payload

an item timestamped 21:10:05 belongs to the reporting period after 21:10 - it doesn’t matter when the report is actually generated
