Hi,

Attached is the restx.py file I have modified to upload my weather station's data to www.idokep.hu. The original file is from the .deb package.

Hello, Lorant

Nice looking site.

I am reluctant to include your extension in the standard version of restx.py. I just do not see a lot of demand for it. It would be better to package it as a weewx extension, which could be downloaded from your website. We can include instructions and a link to it in the weewx Wiki.

Hello Thomas,

That is not my site, I just have a weather station and there was no program for linux to upload my data to idokep.hu, so I modified weewx, because this was the least difficult option for me :) I started to use weewx only yesterday, really nice program, I love it already. I agree there is not a lot of demand for my modification, to be honest I just uploaded it to publish and archive my work, but if I will have enough time, I will figure out how to package it as an extension. Thank you.

[Lorant Kurthy]

Hello Thomas,

The extension is ready on github at https://github.com/lorantkurthy/weewx-idokep/, there is a 0.1 release to simplify install, please take a look on it. Thank you!

Looks reasonable. My only comment is that the install instructions have the user expand the tarball in ~/Downloads, but copy from /var/tmp/weewx-idokep-0.1/bin/user.

​ Best keep them consistent.​

I think this is consistent, because in the first step there is a cd /var/tmp line, tar will extract the archive to the current working directory, which will be /var/tmp (if I see correctly).

1) expand the tarball:

cd /var/tmp
tar xvfz ~/Downloads/weewx-idokep-0.1.tar.gz

 However I can modify this and add a -C /var/tmp parameter to the tar command if you think that's clearer:

1) expand the tarball:

tar -C /var/tmp -xvfz ~/Downloads/weewx-idokep-0.1.tar.gz

[Thomas Keffer]

Oops. I missed that! Right you are.

Alternatively, just leave the download directory unspecified.

tar xvf weewx-idokep-0.1.tar.gz

[Lorant Kurthy]

Documentation is the hardest thing to me due to my poor English as I'm not a native speaker. I will rework the README as soon as I will have enough time, I admit I am very happy now that the uploader works, and is published :) I want to modify it in the near future to support the pro.idokep.hu site too, so in the 0.2 release I will write a new README. Thank you anyway.

I think the README file is just fine. Easy to understand.

Kedves Lóránt!

Próbálom beüzemelni a modulod, azonban az alábbi hibába futok bele: 

File "/usr/share/weewx/user/idokep.py", line 63, in __init__

Dec 27 23:37:45 raspberrypi weewx[4830]:     ****      site_dict = weewx.restx.get_dict(config_dict, 'IDOKEP')

Dec 27 23:37:45 raspberrypi weewx[4830]:     ****  AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'get_dict'

Elképzelhető hogy a pro.idokep.hu funkció még nem megy. Ha megoldható lenne és megírnád mit is kell módosítani akkor nagyon megköszönném.

Üdv

line 63 should be get_site_dict instead of get_dict

Dear m,

The next problem:

Dec 28 07:10:09 raspberrypi weewx[6917]:     ****    File "/usr/share/weewx/user/idokep.py", line 71, in __init__

Dec 28 07:10:09 raspberrypi weewx[6917]:     ****      site_dict.setdefault('database_dict', config_dict['Databases'][config_dict['StdArchive']['archive_database']])

Dec 28 07:10:09 raspberrypi weewx[6917]:     ****  KeyError: 'archive_database'

Thank you for your help.

sandor,

around line 70 of idokep.py, change this:

site_dict.setdefault('station_type', 'WS23XX')

site_dict.setdefault('database_dict', config_dict['Databases'][config_dict['StdArchive']['archive_database']])

to this:

        site_dict.setdefault('station_type', engine.stn_info.hardware)
        site_dict['manager_dict'] = weewx.manager.get_manager_dict(
            config_dict['DataBindings'], config_dict['Databases'], 'wx_binding')

also, at lines 90 and 145, change 'database_dict' to 'manager_dict' (3 places)
