Adds the extra_information attribute to both RecentShipment and ActiveShipment sensors. This attribute contains additional data required by some carriers for tracking (such as postcode or email address). Changes: - RecentShipment: Added extra_information to attributes dict - ActiveShipment: Added extra_information from next_traceable_shipment - EMPTY_ATTRIBUTES: Added extra_information for consistency The API documentation notes that extra_information "could be a postcode or an email. Something extra that was required by a carrier to track a delivery." Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Update test assertions to include the extra_information attribute that was added to RecentShipment and ActiveShipment sensors. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

There was a problem hiding this comment.
I think this one is good to go. We should switch to proper .get() over try and except blocks though. That'll be a larger rewrite.

I'll take a closer look at a larger rewrite and see what that looks like, I'll do that as a separate PR though |

@robbybarnes This one looks good, left a comment in #77, then we can merge those two with my fix on the test |
