v4.0.0
π Release Meteocat integration v4.0.0 β major improvements and new solar/lunar system
My own custom Python package Solarmoonpy is introduced in this major release.
Solarmoonpy added support for new native sun and moon sensors in the Meteocat integration.
β¨ Highlights:
- Introduced new Python package
Solarmoonpyto handle all solar and lunar data and event calculations.
β Replaces theastraldependency completely. - Added new solar and lunar sensors to provide richer astronomical data with many extra attributes.
- Added configuration option to manually adjust default coordinates and elevation.
β This allows users to fine-tune their position for more accurate solar and lunar event calculations instead of using the default station coordinates and elevation.
π Changes:
- Major refactor and optimization of coordinator logic for better performance and stability.
- The default validation hour for forecasts is set to 6.
β οΈ Note:
- The new v4.0.0 is required for using Meteocat Card v3.0.0 and later.
- Upgrade is recommended if you plan to use the updated card.
