Hi,

I wouldn't be using WeeWX-WD from bitbucket, it has not been touched for some 
years now. WeeWX-WD on github is more up to date, the current version is v2.1.2 
from November 2020. It should have no problems running on WeeWX v4.x under 
python 2 or python3. The SteelSeries Weather Gauges have directly supported 
WeeWX of v2.5.0 (of the SteelSeries Weather Gauges) or for about six years, and 
there is now a WeeWX SteelSeries Gauges extension that installs the necessary 
skin to support the SteelSeries Weather Gauges (this is the preferred means of 
providing the SteelSeries Weather Gauges, WeeWX-WD did support the SteelSeries 
Weather Gauges via the WD customclientraw.txt but since the advent of direct 
WeeWX support and the WeeWX extension the SteelSeries Weather Gauges support 
has been deprecated in WeeWX-WD). You should find the WeeWX extension will work 
under WeeWX v4.x and python2 or python3.

I would suggest that you upgrade to WeeWX v4.4.0 and get WeeWX running to your 
satisfaction before installing either WeeWX-WD v2.1.2 or the WeeWX SteelSeries 
Weather Gauges extension (in whatever order suits). Once you have the 
SteelSeries Weather Gauges extension running OK you can, if you want, look at 
installing the Realtime gauge-data extension which will allow the gauges to 
update on every loop packet rather than on each report cycle (how often they 
will update will depend on how often your station emits loop packets, for your 
Rainwise this should be up to every couple of seconds).

Gang,

Currently running weewx 4.2 (will be upgrading in the next few days to 4.4) on 
a Raspberry Pi 4 (32-bit OS) with a Rainwise MK-III and IP-100 providing 
station data -- everything has been working properly for several weeks and is 
populating a remote MySQL DB.

Once I upgrade weewx, I'd like to incorporate using Steel Gauges and Saratoga 
Templates, hence my query:  Can I utilize the WEEWX-WD as outlined BitBucket 
Weewx-WD?

The Steel Gauges and Saratoga Templates will be hosted on a remote, public 
accessible server -- so I'll be sending the clientraw and testtag files via FTP.

Thanks in Advance!

- Tim
