adding more graphs to wview

[vds]

wview's databases and graphs are (obviously) outdoor-centric, but the
VP2 also generates information for the weather inside the house. I
was thinking of trying to add something to generate inside temperature
+humidity graphs and perhaps similar history/hi-lo type databases for
the inside data. Has anybody done this yet ? If not, would it be a
big deal to accomplish ? Without looking it almost seems like a
search+replace thing based on the existing databases and daemons.
Thoughts ?

This has already been anticipated. The file images-user.c is the place
to put user-defined image routines. I think inside temp is the
example. The User Manual addresses this - search for images-user. The
archive database stores inside temperature and humidity (if supported
by your weather station).

As I said before, almost all values you need are in parameterlist.txt.
I converted it into parameterlist.php.
You have for example <!--insideTemp--> and <!--insideHumidity-->
In my php file these lines are:

$insideTemp = <!--insideTemp-->;
$insideHumidity = <!--insideHumidity-->;

Since wview replaces the <!--...--> names with their corresponding
values, you get a PHP file containing the whole set of variables
updated each time wview generates it.
For example, after generation, these two lines are converted to something like:

$insideTemp = 23.5;
$insideHumidity = 54;

Then, the only thing you need is to include this file into your pages
and use the PHP varialbles as you want.

if the "inside" temperature is your home, you might want to consider
carefully the security aspect of publishing this for all to know - if
it's cold outside and your house is cold inside, burglars could be
interested

You are perfectly right.
I was considering at first to add this information to my web page but
then I saw it as a security issue.
Nevertheless, I am still thinking of having it on a hidden
password-protected page.
