Add config option force_update to allow derivative integration to work properly. #83

Closed elmigbot closed 1 year ago

elmigbot commented 1 year ago

Background: I use HA's derivative integration to calculate flow rates from the meters. The problem is that the derivative flatlines instead of going to zero when the meter stops updating HA, due to zero consumption.

Suggestion: There is an mqtt option called force_update that will always update HA even when consumption has not changed, which in turn should correct the derivative behavior. Documentation here

It would be nice to expose this mqtt option as a config option for this addon.

Thanks!
