ecowitt2aprs

This Python package contains a script that queries the Ecowitt weather station data, transforming it into a Cumulus "wxnow.txt" format which is printed to stdout.

This script is intended to be used with the Direwolf software AX.25 packet modem software for the purposes of relaying Ecowitt weather information via Automatic Packet Reporting System (APRS).

Installation

ecowitt2aprs is best installed into a Python virtual environment. For example

$ python -m venv /path/to/venv
$ . /path/to/venv/bin/activate
$ python -m pip install ecowitt2aprs

Usage

ecowitt2aprs relies on authentication secrets provided in config.yaml. Ecowitt API and App keys are required, along with the MAC address of the weather station used to capture the data. These are inserted into config.yaml (see template in the repository), which should be given user read/write access only (i.e. Posix 600 octal code). See the Ecowitt API documentation for details.

$ . /path/to/venv/bin/activate
$ ecowitt2aprs -c config.yaml
