- Update sensor classes to support a generic way to store energy values
- Update sensor conversion code to deal with units and not magnitudes
- Add magnitude<->unit for sensors, generic way of defining used unit. Convert from sensor magnitude unit to the one used for display.
- Reset energy value based on index through external means (MQTT, HTTP)
- Rework energy timestamping, update webui with 'last saved' value
While this solves the energy conversion issues and we are finally seeing the real value, what I don't really like:
- KilowattHour and WattHour are separate enum tags, thus sort-of are different types altogether
- Conversion code in Energy object should probably use some generic 'ratio' calculation? (https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/numeric/ratio/ratio)
- We are still using runtime checks to do calculations and depend that sensor outputs only one specific value type.
Consider this a fix for energy display / storage and preliminary work on sensor.ino
Further sensor refactoring... soon.
- stack-like discovery struct to store pending mqtt topic and
message
- use separate json objects for sensor and switch data (different solution for the #1957)
- customize relay TOGGLE payload
- match payload string when receiving mqtt status message
- reference enum values instead of raw integers, spell out intended status
- remove dead code
amend #1885, capitalize `relayPayload...` suffix instead of using uppercase
add `relayPayloadToggle`
- remove "platform" key, see #1440. this implicitly sets schema to "basic". pending some other clean-up regarding json and mqtt queueing, other schema can be added down the line
- updated ws module queue elem to capture callbacks list, allows to pass more than one callback (for example, when they are generated on the fly as lambdas, see ha wsPost usage)
- modified method to send ha config to use global ws queue, fix#1762 problem with empty topics and ensure json allocation is consistent.
- use existing defines to set mqtt payload options. amend #1085, #1188, #1883 to use the set payload value. drop HOMEASSISTANT_PAYLOAD... defines.
- update MQTT_STATUS_ONLINE/OFFLINE and RELAY_MQTT_ON/OFF with runtime configuration
- filter payload strings so that the resulting yaml value is not interpreted as bool (python True, False)
- helper method for settings to streamline string values manipulation
- update every dynamicjsonbuffer with fixed size constructor argument
- change to ws callback registration to use a class builder (just cosmetic)
- test multiple ws data callbacks for each module
- remove some of the static strings in favour of ws data callback
- improve sensor ws callback data size, remove duplicated strings
- use static buffer in wsDebugSend
- postpone wsSend until loop, implement wsPost to allow other modules to queue message callbacks. remove Ticker based ws callbacks for data
- update WebUI files
