Weather Station Backup

Weather Station Backup

Backup for any radio weather station which runs with the WeeWX open source weather software. A detailed description can be seen in the main article (Weather Station). Docs have been taken from the WeeWX docs-site.

The following files and folders have to be copied:

  • Configurations (/etc/weewx/weewx.conf)
  • Skins and templates (/etc/weewx/skins)
  • Custom code or extensions (/usr/share/weewx/user)
  • Database (/var/lib/weewx/weewx.sdb) ...do not make a copy of the SQLite database between in the middle of a transaction!

Restore from backup:

Install WeeWX and replace the default files with those from above.
