Apologies, been a bit busy so haven't been able to do a lot of development. I've been trying to catch up over the last day or so after the glow issues, so this is really helpful! I'll be merging some PRs later today
not very used to github but ive been trying to follow the problems/solutions with this integration, after all the outages etc. Should I wait for an actual update of the integration in HACS or if not what can i do in the meantime? should i use the sensor.py in this post? are there other files i can update?
thanks
The current version in HACS should work. The updates are to provide better error handling if (when) the Glow API breaks again. Unless you needed the fixes for some reason, I suggest using the current version.
Hopefully @HandyHat will conclude their testing and make a new release soon.
Thanks, I'll continue with the HACS version then
@HandyHat have you been able to consider this PR? Rolling it out will reduce the load on the Glow API, hopefully making the API more reliable for all of us.
Has a version (v0.6.0?) with these fixes been released? I'm still on v0.5.2 and not sure why it is not updating...
No. @HandyHat are you able to make a release so everyone gets updates via HACS.
There have been a number of issue reports and PRs recently, but @HandyHat is not currently active.
We have no idea of @HandyHat personal circumstances, and fundamentaly hope they are OK, and will be able to accept a PR soon.
This issue, and associated PR is a roll up of issues, so when @HandyHat come online it will be easy for them to trace what needs doing.
Issues resolved
PR Roll up
This PR contains a roll up of the following PRs, that could be closed if the PR accepted.
Using the PR prior to @HandyHat merging.
The simplest method would be to copy this version of sensor.py (Make sure you use this version, from the
dev
branch, and not from themain
branch) tocustom_components/hildebrandglow_dcc
and restart HA. Previous attempts to get HACS to use a forked branch caused lots of issues, and lots of tidying up when @HandyHat was able to accept the PR.We can look at this in time, if @HandyHat does not come back online in the near future.
Note: When you restart, it can take upto 5 minute for data to pull through. Please give it time before raising issues saying you have no data.
Tariff Data: If you are no seeing Tariff data - check the Glow APP. If there in not data in Glow, do not report an error here - this is nothing this Integration can do - you need to report the issue to your energy provider.
Issues that cloud probably be closed...
Issue to keep open
