Looking to get me a RPi to install the WFArchive on.
Is the Maria DB on the SD card? Or elsewhere? How big of an SD card would be recommended. http://wf.fsoft.com/wfarchive/about.cfm did not mention any recommended h/w other than RPi.
I will have one display in my bathroom and would like to have it display a weekday/clock also; can you incorporate that? (First thing in the morning, I have no clue what day it is )
I recommend at least a 64GB or even a 128GB as you may want to keep data for a LONG time. If you are not going to keep the data archived then you can go smaller. But they are so darn cheap I donāt by small cards now.
I have thought about Date and Time. Just havenāt decided how to display it. What screens will you be using to display the page?
This is the current version. As you can see, there is plenty of room at the bottom and the five LEDs can go away for now and the batteries can be made smallerā¦
Iām thinking of a 7" tablet possibly an iPad or a Samsung Tab.
Want to be able to see the clock from about 7ft away.
The bottom right would work.
What are those LEDās for?
Those will work well. I use a 7" Samsung and four Amazon tablets.
Originally I developed a board that uses the GPIO pins on the RPi to turn on LEDs to show unusual status. I converted those to software. They show: Hub reboot, application restart, device reboot, device offline, battery low and battery replace.
I just finished most of the calculations and conversion and even added the data and time.
Four cells on the Panel are finished (I think). Temperature, Wind, Pressure, and Solar have the calculations and conversions in place. It rained a little here tonight which pointed out some errors and omissions in precipitation. I will try to finish it up tomorrow.
This has become a bigger project than I thought it would and itās almost finished. There is a lot of testing to do and changes to put in place but I feel the end nearing.
At this point you may restart Archive (archive.js). This only required manual change.
DailySky will have two new fiields. The changes are:
precipT renamed to precipE. This is the total number of rain events reported for the day.
precipT. The total rain recorded for the day.
precipM The total number of times rain was greater than zero in obs_sky. This can be thought of as the total number of minutes it rained during the day.
How are you doing āpressureā calculations without the elevation data that I asked for the other day ? I thought the app was local-only udp-only, or have I lost track of what youāre buildingā¦
Can you do some kind of place holder graphic for the times when there isnāt any rain?
The weatherflow graphic of one of your own would work just to fill the empty space.
I (once again) want to thank you for this project!
