Hi All! I am setting up a WeeWx system in a remote location where they do have WiFi but nowhere to actually install the software. Since I have WeeWx running elsewhere, I'd like to be able to feed into a new instance of WeeWx under my control.
I am used to using Davis stuff, but as these guys are on a budget, we went for EcoWitt. We have a WS69 with LCD display, and a GW3000. This is my first time using a GW3000, and I was quite happy to see that it supports MQTT so it can push data out in almost real time (down to 8 seconds). I have this working and I can see the updates coming into my MQTT server, albeit in a weird HTTP POST style: PASSKEY=xxx&stationtype=GW3000A_V1.0.9&runtime=1124&heap=68736&dateutc=2025-07-25%2011%3A50%3A12&dns_err_cnt=0&cdnflg=1&tempinf=74.12&humidityin=56&baromrelin=29.483&baromabsin=29.483&tempf=72.86&humidity=55&vpd=0.367&winddir=294&windspeedmph=0.00&windgustmph=0.00&maxdailygust=0.00&solarradiation=4.96&uv=0&rainratein=0.000&eventrainin=0.000&hourlyrainin=0.000&dailyrainin=0.000&weeklyrainin=0.000&monthlyrainin=0.000&yearlyrainin=0.000&wh65batt=0&freq=868M&model=GW3000A&interval=60 If there was a way of having this MQTT message feed directly into the LOOP of WeeWx, it would make my life SO much easier, as I can have the GW3000 publish this out to an external MQTT server and connect WeeWx to the same server. Has anyone got a WeeWx driver to do this? Without this, I think I am looking at the GW1000 API polling driver, which appears to have become unmaintained quite recently. For that to work I'd need to arrange things such that WeeWx can connect to the GW3000 over the Internet, which might be challenging without a VPN. Plan B is to tell them they need to buy a Pi or something and do it all locally, but I would really like to be able to get some semi real-time push method doing for this use case. Any other ideas would be appreciated! Cheers James -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.
