Could be non-polling #9

Closed jpulakka closed 1 year ago

Currntly we don't override should_poll property with False, and by default HA is polling us continuously. The good thing is that this works robustly, but maybe this isn't quite as beautiful as this could be. We should listen to nordpool state updates, and fire update only when needed, as described in https://developers.home-assistant.io/docs/core/entity/

Let's improve this by adding some caching instead, if needed. Current approach is simple and robust, don't fix what's not broken.
