Re: Weewx and API Integration

[gjr80]

Hi,

I am not aware of any utility that exists that can import Awekas data into WeeWX. The WeeWX utility wee_import has the ability to import data via the WeatherUnderground API but not Awakes. That being said, the modular nature of wee_import means it would be relatively straightforward for you to adapt wee_import to import data from Awekas by writing a new Awekas capable front end. This would depend of course on the capabilities of the Awekas API.

Good evening, I use the weather station from Bresser 7 in 1 Clearview and send the data to Awekas. Now I would like to download the data to Weewx via API. Is there a possibility? Many Thanks

AWEKAS API is described at https://www.awekas.at/board/index.php?attachment/4815-awekas-station-api-v1-3-pdf/

Thank you for the help, data is now being fetched, unfortunately the data is displayed incorrectly. It's probably just a small thing that I'm currently overlooking. Maybe someone else has a tip for me. Thanks

Please describe what you mean with

> unfortunately the data is displayed incorrectly

Is scaling fitting the units listed in the API-description?
Be aware that
epoch-times are related to a specific timezone, with an offset relative
to UTC as given under 'timeoffset'.

Hi, thanks for your help. I am now using the Inceptor driver. Data is also retrieved from WU. Under Current Conditions it says Outside Temp: 0.1 C
Inside Temp 17.2 C. Outside 12.9 and Inside 24.1 would be correct.

[Anton vanNwnhzn@GMail]

Can the 'faulty' values be traced back to values in the input-files from either WU, or from AWEKAS?
If that is the case, it looks like a doubtful data source.
If no link visible, (perhaps open door) have a look in completely different direction:
did you properly set the type of PWS (not to Simulator)?

Another thing that struck me was Hardware Simulator under "about this station". Even though I installed the interceptor driver. Sorry for the questions

[Rainer Lang]

That's what I call a "beauty" thing.
Look up your parallel post in wxforum.net
There you will find a solution of how to replace your "Simulator" entry by one of your choice

Sorry for the questions but I don't see the error. I made the following entries in weewx.con, see attachment

[gjr80]

I do not recommend editing the Seasons skin about.inc and replacing the $station.hardware tag with whatever text you chose. At best you are papering over the cracks, at worst it will be misleading. The $station.hardware tag is taken from the hardware_name property of the driver being used by WeeWX. In this case if 'Simulator' is being displayed that will be because WeeWX is currently using the simulator driver. Doesn't matter how many driver stanzas are included in weewx.conf, or what station type is selected in weewx.conf; $station.hardware will display the hardware_name property for the driver used by the WeeWX instance doing the reporting.

After you changed to the interceptor driver did you restart WeeWX? If not you need to. If you did what does the WeeWX log say? Details of the driver being used by WeeWX is logged during WeeWX startup. Certainly the nonsense values you are seeing, such as 0.1C, is indicative of WeeWX using the simulator driver rather than the interceptor. The answers will be in the log.

Hello, I have attached the weewx.conf. Maybe someone can see where the error is. I really appreciate the help here. Thanks

I would hazard a guess that maybe the driver and device_type in your interceptor stanza could be confusing each other.

I assume so too, but I'm stumped. Unfortunately, the station can only send to awekas WU and Weathercloud. So the only way left for me is to get the data from WU via API.

Try changing the device_type to observer

Hi,

were you able to get the data from the awekas api?

Thanks

[Sebastian Eckelmann]

Hi, unfortunately no, so far it only works via Wunderground.
