wind direction not downloaded from Data Garrison

[cmdln156]

I'm using the transloader to download weather data from Data Garrison. It's downloading everything fine except for wind direction. It's not present in the JSON files that are generated in the datastore directory, although wind speed and wind gust are in the files.

Hi @cmdln156 @openfirmware ,

I took a deeper look into this and the issue might be caused by the value of sens_details in the base_path:

data-transloader/lib/transloader/data_garrison/station.rb

Line 43 in f329bd6

@base_path = "https://datagarrison.com/users/#{@user_id}/#{@id}/index.php?sens_details=127&details=7"

For the stations, I am working with, sens_details=127 results in a html page having the last two entries under the sensors node collapsed. Hence, they are not parsed in this loop:

data-transloader/lib/transloader/data_garrison/station.rb

Lines 107 to 128 in f329bd6

	raw_metadata.split(/      |\n/).each do |matched|
	# remove any non-breaking spaces
	matched.gsub!(/ /, '')
	# Match headers and create a new metadata section object
	case matched
	when /-Transceiver/
	station_metadata.push({name: "transceiver"})
	when /-Logger/
	station_metadata.push({name: "logger"})
	when /-Sensors/
	when /^-([^-]+)/
	station_metadata.push({name: $1})
	else
	# Match sub-section objects
	last = station_metadata[-1]
	m = matched.match(/(?<key>[^:]+): (?<value>.+)/)
	if m
	last[m['key'].strip] = m['value'].strip
	end
	end
	end

One solution would be to adjust this value to something higher, or develop some logic to identify the number of sensors and unfold all available sensors.

As workaround, you might update the station metadata json manually and add the missing entries under metadata: datastreams: by hand.
