- Introduced `get_intervals_for_day_offsets` helper to streamline access to price intervals for yesterday, today, and tomorrow.
- Updated various components to replace direct access to `priceInfo` with the new helper, ensuring a flat structure for price intervals.
- Adjusted calculations and data processing methods to accommodate the new data structure.
- Enhanced documentation to reflect changes in caching strategy and data structure.
Fixed uninitialized self.time attribute causing AttributeError during
config entry creation. Added explicit initialization to None with
Optional type annotation and guard in _get_price_info_for_specific_homes().
Impact: Config flow no longer crashes when creating initial config entry.
Users can complete setup without errors.
Introduce TimeService as single source of truth for all datetime operations,
replacing direct dt_util calls throughout the codebase. This establishes
consistent time context across update cycles and enables future time-travel
testing capability.
Core changes:
- NEW: coordinator/time_service.py with timezone-aware datetime API
- Coordinator now creates TimeService per update cycle, passes to calculators
- Timer callbacks (#2, #3) inject TimeService into entity update flow
- All sensor calculators receive TimeService via coordinator reference
- Attribute builders accept time parameter for timestamp calculations
Key patterns replaced:
- dt_util.now() → time.now() (single reference time per cycle)
- dt_util.parse_datetime() + as_local() → time.get_interval_time()
- Manual interval arithmetic → time.get_interval_offset_time()
- Manual day boundaries → time.get_day_boundaries()
- round_to_nearest_quarter_hour() → time.round_to_nearest_quarter()
Import cleanup:
- Removed dt_util imports from ~30 files (calculators, attributes, utils)
- Restricted dt_util to 3 modules: time_service.py (operations), api/client.py
(rate limiting), entity_utils/icons.py (cosmetic updates)
- datetime/timedelta only for TYPE_CHECKING (type hints) or duration arithmetic
Interval resolution abstraction:
- Removed hardcoded MINUTES_PER_INTERVAL constant from 10+ files
- New methods: time.minutes_to_intervals(), time.get_interval_duration()
- Supports future 60-minute resolution (legacy data) via TimeService config
Timezone correctness:
- API timestamps (startsAt) already localized by data transformation
- TimeService operations preserve HA user timezone throughout
- DST transitions handled via get_expected_intervals_for_day() (future use)
Timestamp ordering preserved:
- Attribute builders generate default timestamp (rounded quarter)
- Sensors override when needed (next interval, daily midnight, etc.)
- Platform ensures timestamp stays FIRST in attribute dict
Timer integration:
- Timer #2 (quarter-hour): Creates TimeService, calls _handle_time_sensitive_update(time)
- Timer #3 (30-second): Creates TimeService, calls _handle_minute_update(time)
- Consistent time reference for all entities in same update batch
Time-travel readiness:
- TimeService.with_reference_time() enables time injection (not yet used)
- All calculations use time.now() → easy to simulate past/future states
- Foundation for debugging period calculations with historical data
Impact: Eliminates timestamp drift within update cycles (previously 60+ independent
dt_util.now() calls could differ by milliseconds). Establishes architecture for
time-based testing and debugging features.
This commit completes multiple refactoring efforts and documentation improvements:
Code Structure Changes:
- Move round_to_nearest_quarter_hour() from sensor/helpers.py to average_utils.py
- Resolve circular import between price_utils.py and sensor/helpers.py
- Split api.py into api/ package (client.py, queries.py, exceptions.py, helpers.py)
- Split coordinator.py into coordinator/ package (core.py, cache.py, listeners.py, etc.)
- Move period_utils/ to coordinator/period_handlers/ for better organization
- All lint checks passing (no PLC0415 local import warnings)
Documentation Additions:
- Add docs/development/architecture.md with Mermaid diagrams (end-to-end flow, cache coordination)
- Add docs/development/timer-architecture.md (comprehensive 3-timer system documentation)
- Add docs/development/caching-strategy.md (4-layer cache system with invalidation logic)
- Update docs/development/README.md with cross-references
- Update AGENTS.md with new module structure and patterns
Smart Boundary Tolerance:
- Implement ±2 second tolerance for quarter-hour rounding
- Prevents premature interval switching during HA restarts (14:59:30 stays at 14:45)
- Enables boundary snapping for timer jitter (14:59:58 → 15:00)
Atomic Midnight Coordination:
- Add _check_midnight_turnover_needed() for race-free midnight handling
- Coordinate Timer #1 (HA DataUpdateCoordinator) with Timer #2 (quarter-hour refresh)
- Whoever runs first performs turnover, other skips gracefully
Timer Optimization:
- Change timer scheduling from second=1 to second=0 (absolute-time scheduling)
- Document load distribution rationale (unsynchronized API polling prevents thundering herd)
- Comprehensive explanation of 3 independent timers and their coordination
Impact: Cleaner code structure with resolved circular dependencies, comprehensive
documentation of timer and caching systems, and improved reliability during
boundary conditions and midnight turnovers. All changes are developer-facing
improvements with no user-visible behavior changes.
