Topic: GW1000 Request to add more "Customized" sever uploads

[_John C]

I wonder would it take much to implement having 3 Customized services in the GW1000? Could someone mention it to Lucy?

I see all your customs are going to local spots on your network (I know it was an example). I have no idea if you plan on writing these yourself, but you if you did, you can redirect your own data to an unlimited number of sites with some programming.

I do like the idea of having more customized services, but then coming with a number , how many, etc. I'm just grateful to have 1

I'd use them with this app

You might want to ask Da9L to add a some functionality to take the incoming request , and write a new request with the same post body to a list of other locations, and then post them.

Its just one of many ways this could be done.

I'm probably going to get hate mail from Da9L

Just use @olicat 's superb FOSHKplugin - you can then feed up to 10!! 👍🏻

I've thought of this, but I'd rather not overload Da9L at the moment. Hes really working hard at this app and has enough on his plate with it already

With FOSHKplugin you could use as many custom servers as you need. As Ecowitt and as WU in parallel.

That is another option that does work. But its another plugged in device. I already have a Meteobridge 

I would probably only upload to 2 tablets. I suggested 3 as then I'd have spare. To use FOSHKplugin, I'd need to setup a pi. And I'm not sure it would be worth it, just to upload to an extra tablet.

If you can set up a PI, you probably know enough coding to create your own man in the middle server , have it receive the request , and post wherever .

I'd use a pi and FOSHKplugin. But it would mean yet another plugged in device. And the extra tablet would probably be only in the bedroom. Maybe another in the kitchen.

I just thought it would be a nice option to have while using existing hardware.

LOL, sorry. I'm just saying there are solutions out there. The FOSHKplugin  , etc.

I've waited a long time for a "Custom Server" , or  similar or an API.

Going back to the manufacturer because you want 3 , when other solutions exist, well, I'd rather they work on other stuff. The implementation and testing of a feature is not a simple task.

I would suggest using olicats software to achieve this Design wise its also not a good idea if i implemented a "forward" feature in Personal Weather Tablet to be honest. If the first tablet in chain would break down or crash, the rest wouldn't get their data.

Also when i eventually get the time to implement the API to the GW1000, i think you can connect as many as you want to it directly and retrieve data from it that way instead
