I am looking at weatherradio and the recent documentation posted on github

github.com/indilib/indi-3rdparty/blob/ma...adme-WeatherRadio.md

<strong>Thank you Wolfgang for this nice firmware and website addon.</strong>

<em>Question regarding indiserver start up.</em>
I have run ekos and started weather radio and see all the nice readings, and lights etc.
I have set my preferred sensors for the readings and saved the configuration.

I would like to run weatherradio without Ekos, for instance just to have the web pages.
Can I simply execute
$ indiserver -v indi_weatherradio
Will this pick up any settings from ~/.indi/Weather Radio_config.xml ?

<em>Question regarding data on webpage - graph times (locale and timezone problem)</em>
In bin/wr_rrd_fetch.py and bin/wr_rrd_lastupdate.py the default timezone is set to 1, (? for central europe)
I am in Cork.
My data is saved in the rrd files like so
<code>
Python 2.7.16 (default, Oct 10 2019, 22:02:15)
[GCC 8.3.0] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import rrdtool
>>> a = rrdtool.lastupdate("sensors.rrd")
>>> print (a)
{'date': datetime.datetime(2020, 3, 21, 11, 19, 7), 'ds': {'BME280_Temp': 20.94, 'MLX90614_Tamb': 19.91, 'TSL2591_Lux': 19.51082, 'BME280_Pres': 1020.375, 'MLX90614_Tobj': 19.19, 'DHT_Temp': None, 'DHT_Hum': None, 'BME280_Hum': 59.03027}}
>>>
</code>
Which is in my localtime.

But the graphs are one hour ahead of this due to timezone calculation.
<code>
$ cd /usr/share/weatherradio/bin
$ grep timezone *.py
wr_rrd_fetch.py:parser.add_argument("-t", "--timezone", default=1, type=int,
wr_rrd_fetch.py: series[categories[pos]]["data"].append([(time + args.timezone*3600)*1000, round(y, 2)])
</code>

Should I set the default to 0 here or should I pass -t 0 to the call from cron ?

Question regarding lastupdate on webpage
See screenshot of homepage

lastupdate is --
Not sure why it does not contain the correct time.

In charts.js
<code>
document.querySelector("#lastupdate").textContent = new Date(lastUpdate).toLocaleString();
</code>
Should I pass en-IE to toLocaleString ?
<code>
document.querySelector("#lastupdate").textContent = new Date(lastUpdate).toLocaleString("en-IE");
</code>

<em>Question re autoupdate of webpage</em>
Does the page autoupdate when new values are available?

<em>Question about best way to change webpage when I don't have the anenometer</em>
I don't have the anenometer. Should I just edit weatherradio.html to delete the references to the windspeed?

Again sorry for all the questions, just trying to get to grips with weatherradio.

Hi Adrian,
nice to hear that you like it.Simple answer: YES.

YES! The RRD file holds the values as GMT values. So if you want to display the time series also with GMT, simply pass a "-t 0" to the scripts generating the JSON docs.

Hm, not sure where the problem is. Did you generate the RTdata_lastupdate.json?

No, you need to push the refresh button of your browser.

Right. Maybe you need to clean up the javascript code in js/charts.js

Hope that helps.
Wolfgang
