Hello everyone,

Part of this is my weakness in python, but:

I'm writing an independent program in python that will calculate irrigation 
times and durations. To do this it needs information from the WeeWX 
database such as:

- Total ET for a particular day or time range
- Total rain for a day or time range
- Current rain rate

The current rain rate I can just use MQTT for, but the others require 
database queries.

I know WeeWX can pull all sorts of queries using tags, but can I use that 
system from a separate python program? Is it just a simple import? A 
complex import? Something else entirely?

For instance, in WeeWX $day($days_ago=2).rain.sum gets me what I want. If I 
can somehow use that in my own program, I would be able to completely 
remove any need to query the database directly.

But if it's not how python works, oh well.

Thanks!
Seth
