I (like others) must be missing something on the software side of the GroveWeatherPi. I need help accessing all the data my station is collecting. I have successfully built my solar weather station and my sensors are recording data to the mysql database using the GroveWeatherPi.py software (version 2.99). My GroveWeatherPi.log file is being updated as it should.
I see "pretty" control panels in the documentation but how can I get them? Are they created somewhere and if so how do I use them? I see mention to RaspiConnect but the milocreek website is dead. Also, I don't want to use an iphone to access my data, I'd rather use a web interface.
Can someone make some sense of this? Thank you.

I've put a call into MiloCreek about their website. I expect they will fix it sometime today.
Best,
BP

Thank you BP. MicoCreek is up now and it appears that they only work with Apple..to bad for us Android folks. Now my basic question is still unanswered. Is there software/examples anywhere which accesses the GroveWeatherPi mysql database data? Again a web interface example would be the best.
Another question that is involved with this...is the mysql database format used/discussed anywhere? If I am looking into uncharted territory here please let me know and I'll start looking into "rolling my own".
Thank you for your guidance.

DanV, Yes, we have gone back and forth over android for years. Turns out it is a complete rewrite and probably not worth it in terms of engineering time. Just supporting RasPiConnect is enough work! The database format is in the download, but for the best look at it, install phpmyadmin on your Raspberry Pi. It is the best! to look at mySQL files. Check out what we are doing with Alexa and GroveWeatherPi. We have it working on OurWeather now and will have it soon on GroveWeatherPi and SmartPlantPi. http://instagr.am/p/Bdbf6lHne2V BP

Thank you for the suggestion. I am currently looking into the WeeWx interface as it appears to meet my needs better. This will probably require some coding on my end but the documentation appears to be pretty solid.
