Periodically repeat power values to the microgrid API, in the PowerDistributor / PowerManager #293

Open shsms opened 1 year ago

shsms commented 1 year ago

What's needed?

The Microgrid API service removes power values sent from actors after a configurable time, and actors need to repeatedly send power values, as a heartbeat mechanism, to ensure that the decision making actor is still around.

This repetition is currently done directly by the actors.

Proposed solution

This logic can instead be moved to the PowerDistributor or PowerManager once it becomes available, and hidden from actor developers.

I guess this should be done in the power manager more than the power distributor:
