Release v7.8

weewx-celestial 7.8

A complete Danish translation of the sample skin ships, contributed by
native speaker Gert Andersen. Drop-in upgrade
from 7.x — install over it, no config changes, no loop-data field
changes; a page in any other language looks exactly as before.
Released alongside weewx-skyfield 1.17 and weewx-loopdata 6.8, which
ship the same Danish for their pages.

What's new

• Danish ships. lang/da.conf is a complete translation,
  contributed by native speaker Gert Andersen, whose shared vocabulary
  — body names, moon phases, compass points and all 88 constellation
  names — is copied verbatim from weewx-skyfield's Danish, and a test
  keeps the extensions in step (as it does for the German, French,
  Dutch and Spanish). Because the live loop-data values follow the
  language of loopdata's target report, one line switches the whole
  page, labels and live values alike:

  [StdReport]
      [[CelestialReport]]
          lang = da
  

  

Requirements

• Python 3.9 or later
• WeeWX 5.2 or later
• weewx-loopdata
  5.0 or later
• weewx-skyfield
  strongly recommended (required for Proxima Centauri), or PyEphem

Installing/upgrading

Download weewx-celestial.zip from this release, then install right over
the existing 7.x:

weectl extension install weewx-celestial.zip

Restart WeeWX. No weewx.conf changes are needed when upgrading from 7.x.
(Upgrading from 6.x or earlier follows the README's upgrade instructions —
those paths do need the uninstall step, and from 5.x the migration
utility.)
