Issues with Station Registry

[Bostjan Potocnik]

Hi,

with version 4.1.1 I have problems with Station Registry. I guess it has to do with station location name and locale used!

If i'm correct "\u0161" is leter "š" and the name of my station location is:

[Station]
   
    # Description of the station location
    location = Loka pri Mengšu

It will probably work if you put quotes around the name

location = "text example"

Unfortunately, putting quotes around the name will not help. 

Apparently, the Python 2 version of urllib.parse.quote_plus(), which escapes special characters, does not work with unicode. I will come up with a patch.

In the meantime, you can use Python 3.

Try this version of restx.py. It should replace the version in /usr/share/weewx/weewx/restx.py.

Hi,

I copied it and tested. It seems OK!
