WeeWX FoGW

This is a driver for WeeWX that fetches data from Fine Offset WiFi gateways.

Installation

Prerequisites

This driver uses the requests library. This Python package can be installed via Pip:

sudo pip install requests

Then you can clone the repo and run the installer:

sudo wee_extension --install weewx-fogw

You can then configure the driver:

sudo wee_config --reconfigure --driver=user.fogw --no-prompt

Lastly, restart WeeWX:

sudo systemctl restart weewx

FAQ

Why would you use this driver while the awesome weewx-interceptor driver is already available?

The Fine Offset WiFi gateways only allows to push weather data to one endpoint. Using this driver, multiple weewx installations can fetch the same data from one gateway. Handy if you have a weewx-installation used for testing, for example.

Which weather stations are supported?

This driver is tested againts a GW1000 distributed by Froggit but will probably also work with similar systems like the WH26XX and GW2000.
