Simple installation (as in Readme) fails #10
Comments
Same issue here. |
Sorry for the delay in responding. My WeeWX test Raspberry Pi system was re-purposed to temporarily cover for another Pi that failed. I have not tested against WeeWX 4.1 yet, and will try to do so in the next few days to see what is failing..... |
No worries...I'm trying to find all the places to manually modify the weewx.conf - Wish me luck. New to all of this. |
I’m using the WeatherFlow UDP driver with latest versions of WeeWX (4.1.1) and Belchertown skin (1.1).
I probably copied the driver manually and inserted the station stanza with the sensor map manually.
Regards,
Garry Lockyer

Ok glad I'm not crazy, been through a number of fresh installs trying it. no go. I'll see if I can do the manual install. |
I just tried the install command and it did not modify the weewx.conf file, but it did put the .py file in the right folder. If you run wee_config --reconfigure, you will now see the Weatherflow as a sensor. I sill had to edit my weewx.conf file to add the components that the readme shows. For the tempest, I used the tempest sensor components. |
Unless I've gone astray somewhere, the basic install process doesn't work with weewx 4.1. The environment:
Fresh Raspbian lite install
Fresh weewx 4.1 install, simulator selected during setup
Download zip of github repository:
wget -nd https://github.com/captain-coredump/weatherflow-udp/archive/master.zip
Renamed master.zip to weatherflow-udp-master to match Readme:
mv master.zip weatherflow-udp-master.zip
Install via wee-extension:
wee_extension --install weatherflow-udp-master.zip
Appears to go correctly:
(output from wee_extension):
Request to install 'weatherflow-udp-master.zip'
Extracting from zip archive weatherflow-udp-master.zip
Saving installer file to /usr/share/weewx/user/installer/weatherflowudp
Finished installing extension 'weatherflow-udp-master.zip'
weewx.conf is unmodified, simulator driver is not replaced, weatherflow driver is not added.
So it seems that the process as documented in the Readme doesn't work with a fresh weewx 4.1 installation. I'm proceeding to just do a manual install, may try to debug the install issue later.
** A quick glance (without reading the weewx docs) seems to indicate there is a missing 'Config' stanza from the install.py file. Will dig into it further if I get a chance.
