wview is an application that controls a supported weather station to retrieve archive records and current conditions. Archive records may optionally be stored in a relational database (MySQL or PostgreSQL). At a user-defined interval, wview will use the archive history and current conditions to generate weather images (buckets and graphs) and Web pages based on configurable HTML templates. It supports serial and USB data loggers, as well as connectivity with a terminal server or serial server via TCP sockets.

Recent releases


Release Notes: This release adds the "-f" argument to all processes so they can be run in the foreground (i.e. not as daemons). This will facilitate tracing and debugging wview processes from the command line. A "start-trace" command has been added to the wview start script examples. An rsyslog config file has been added to the Debian APT installation such that wview logs are placed in the file /var/log/wview.log. "99-wview.conf" has been added to the examples/rsyslog directory, and there are instructions for use in the source build section of the User Manual. The WH1080 station interface has been updated to better handle potential extraneous data on the USB bus.


Release Notes: This release adds more valid magic numbers for WH1080 stations.


Release Notes: A problem in which NOAA yearly reports were missing rain on the day that DST starts was fixed. Read thread was added to WMRUSB using the new radthread facility. Email alert when VP archive record has to be retried was added.


Release Notes: Better WH1080 sensor decoding was added. Console reset logic was added for WMRUSB stations when sensor data stops being sent.


Release Notes: This release fixes TE923 rain decode logic. It changes the WMRUSB device open paradigm to harden the interface for marginal USB environments.
