Apologies if this has been asked - I searched without luck - let me know
where to look.....
I would like to have WeeWX tell me when my weather station's battery is low
- perhaps running a script once a day that can check the battery status and
send me mail if it's low. (All kinds of weirdness happens when it gets that
way, which I always forget about and freak out thinking the whole system is
boofed, when it's really only a low battery.)
Currently I have a cron job that "screen scrapes" the main page, where the
Sensor Status / Battery Status / Transmitter Battery field has the info I
want ("OK", or "LOW", I think). But that's kinda clunky.
The best I can come up with so far is to configure the system to also
output a simple HTML page - or maybe just a text file? - with that one
value in it, that will simplify the parsing/scraping, but that's still not
very elegant.
Or is this just beyond the scope of WeeWX?
Thanks for any suggestions,
Rob in Seattle
