Is there a clientraw driver?

[D R]

I have used WD for a long time, and have it monitoring several stations.  The program generates a clientraw and clientrawextra file, as well discussed here.

My stations can feed only one software program, therefore I cannot run WeeWx and WD on two computes.

I would like to use WeeWx to generate its various display skins from data which WD generates.

I see that WeeWx can generate a clientraw type file for use by WDFresh and WDL, but that is backwards from what I want to do.

I am looking for, but not seen,  a driver that allows WeeWx to read  a clientraw file produced by WD and loaded into a location on my Rasp Pi (WD runs on a Windows 10 machine) which WeeWx can then do its magic on to make the various outputs based on the skin(s) selected.

Is there a driver that does this?  Is there a driver that is 'close' and would require me to produce a bit of code that would do the conversion of clientraw from WD to a format that WeeWx driver could read?

Thanks,

Dale

Hi,

Nothing that I am aware of. The file parse driver that is included as an example with each WeeWX release should be able to be fairly easily adapted to parse clientraw.txt and cherry pick the fields required. You would need to read the file and split the string on spaces. WeeWX would only require a handful of first class obs, not the whole one hundred and whatever fields are in clientraw.txt.
