Updated mysql support

a new update of WD mac is ready (tested and working here)
first you need a mysqlclient driver installed:
easy way is via brew
if you dont have brew installed then try, via terminal window

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install

then run :

brew install mysql

then start mysql client:

brew services restart mysql

new cron program

cronmysqlnew

should work OK

working ok here

click on connect

then create database

then create table

then test a add data

then it should add data every minute

you can even load the data into a grid to see it

Perfect - works out of the box :smiley:

Created table (slightly different format from my existing table) - I had to modify station_ID col as my station name is 16 chars long, table is created with column width of 10 chars. - easily done though through MySQL.

I’m storing data for the first time since 2019! :smiley: ← this is making me very happy.

ohh, that is good
that’s an easy change, re the station name default
length
i also need to add where the update rate
is set by options

i have polished the program a bit more :slight_smile:
latest update
