Query Over Rates #38

Closed BlueMoon23 closed 2 years ago

BlueMoon23 commented 2 years ago

Hi,

Thanks for working on this, I installed it using HACS and have got each of the entities, but have a query.

When I put the two electricity entities into HA's Developer page I get the figures for the Octopus Outgoing Rate (i.e. the cost of what I export to the grid), not the incoming rate (i.e. the cost I am charged).

For example sensor.octopus_energy_electricity_current_rate is giving me 0.1851, when I check my Octopus account, that is the outgoing rate, the import tariff should be 0.3500 at this time (6 Feb 1600-1630).

Am I doing something wrong, or do I have to do anything else to get the correct rates?

Hi there, sorry for the late response - Work life is busy at the moment.

You're not doing anything wrong. I currently only look at the first rate, which was fine but I didn't account for how exported data would be reported. There is currently an open PR that is meant to resolve this issue, however I haven't had the time to look at it, and is a bit more delicate as it will cause a breaking change.

I hope to within the next couple of weeks, sorry for the delay.

This should now be resolved in the latest update. Please check the changelog before you install as there's some breaking changes.

Hi, Thanks for updating. I have looked at the entities and they look to be working for me.
