Have last inverter contact date and time #36

Closed mathieupotier closed 6 months ago

Hi,

Sometimes the inverter doesn't answer anymore, I propose to add a date time updated when we successfully have the inverter responding. Allowing us to detect when we're having trouble and then reload the integration and have data back again.

Hi, thanks for your idea. I may add this to a new version of the integration, but hopefully this won't be needed -- it looks like the new version (now available in the dev branch) is way more reliable. I added a bunch of error checking, retries etc. to the communication script.

For now I close this. If some problems arise in the future, we can reconsider this feature.
