How to pull mqtt data from 2 topics/weather stations
18Scoobz opened this issue · comments
I am trying to pull mqtt data from 2 topics. What is the format in weewx.ini. I have 2 weather stations I want to compare.
Hi @18Scoobz,
when you look at the configuration snippet of WeeWx's weewx.conf [1], you will just have to add a different topic, like
topic = weewx/097287c4-6fb0-4aeb-a095-00d65ecb15f7/Leoni/VantagePro2
As you can see in Kotori's weewx.ini, the prefix weewx is fixed. Everything which comes after this prefix can be freely set by the user of a data channel (you!). However, you should adhere to the current topology and use three "path" components after the first-level prefix / realm.
On everything else you have absolute freedom and you can acquire data for any number of devices with the same Kotori configuration. In other words: You don't have to individually add each and every channel to Kotori's configuration.
I dearly hope it will work out and this information will be helpful for you.
With kind regards,
Andreas.
