I am past testing and now want to connect my Rasp 400 to a real wx station
I have running, a Texas Weather Instruments.
I went to github and got the driver that Matthew has furnished, downloaded
it and installed with the instructions given into my WeeWx 4.8.
Then I did a wee_config --reconfigu
I did forget to mention that I found twi.py in the /usr/share/weewx/user
directory. It is puzzling to me that there were no other drivers from the
list shown during the wee_configure --reconfigure selection shown here,
unless they are stored elsewhere or 'built in' and not visible, and the
twi
The problem is that the twi driver has not been ported to Python 3.
I'll do the port and submit a PR to Matthew. Or, you can try Python 2.7.

thanks anyhow. :-)

a) thank you for the very speedy reply.
b) I would have never figured that out, so thank you for sharing your
knowledge of all this
c) I am happy with python 3 and the way things run and would be too
nervous about goofing something up. I will wait patiently for the
system to work, with rev
I just did a quick port. There may be issues with how the driver
communicates with the hardware. Give it a try.
You can find the port at https://github.com/tkeffer/weewx-twi

I downloaded the twi.py which you furnished at the above link, and copied
it from the pi/Downloads directory to the /usr/share/weewx/user area and
re-ran the wee_config --reconfigure program, but again only 12 choices were
shown and the TWI was not one of them.
I'm sure it is my error with the
yeah - it's a little more complicated than just grabbing one file.
You want to download it as a package and use the extension installer.
cd
git clone https://github.com/tkeffer/weewx-twi.git weewx-twi
sudo wee_extension --install weewx-twi
then it should appear in the menu.

Yes, that should have worked. At least, it worked on my test machine.
Let's make sure it's where it should be. What do you get if you list the
contents of the 'user' subdirectory?
*ls -l /usr/share/weewx/user*
And, let's make sure the correct version is there:
*grep VERSION /usr/share/weewx/us
The package installer should not be necessary. All the installer does is
call the same API as wee_config.

Let me know if it works. Like I said, there may be a few issues dealing
with byte streams coming on and off the hardware.

I perhaps spoke too soon:
I went back to complete the install, and got this:
choose a driver [4]: 0
Specify the serial port on which the station is connected, for
example /dev/ttyUSB0 or /dev/ttyS0.
port [/dev/ttyUSB0]: /dev/ttyUSB0
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/python3.9/shu
And this is what is in my weewx.conf file (or part of it):
[[CWOP]]
# This section is for configuring posts to CWOP.
# If you wish to post to CWOP, set the option 'enable' to true,
# then specify the station ID (e.g., CW1234).
enable = false

Because your configuration file is in a protected area, you need to be a
superuser to change things. Easily done: just prefix things with 'sudo':
*sudo wee_config --reconfigure*
