GivTCP 1.1.6 released
Updates include:
If updating, please do uninstall the reinstall the container/addon, so its fresh start as there are some core changes to the start-up and config variables.
Post problems and questions here
At midnight, it crashes. With all of the Today cumulative values trying to reset from eg 25kwh to 0. The error logs relates to this and uses previous value. Also present in 1.1.5 as previously discussed
The cycle continues indefinitely, till the Add0On is stopped and restarted. Then the values reset to those of the current day, now incremented from 0, as they would have been at midnight.
Propose maybe a cache clear at 0001, then reload the AddOn at 0002
Britkat Just built a new container for the new release. Left most settings as default but have two inverters and got the following in the logs:

BTW2 The container name defaulted to "unruffled_mirzakhani". What's that all about?
There are a few more env listed in the unofficial documents on hoggy’s page. It’s under the givtcp bit. Not sure where now as I am away from home
I found them when I was upgrading to 1.1.4 and it didn’t work. Most though will be created when you run the docker compose (or however you create it!)
anglefire
Coming along nicely
anglefire I'm guessing that doc may need some tweaking with the latest version? Let me know if you can' edit it (you should be able to)
hoggy I’ll install 1.1.6 when I get back home and see what is needed. I should be able to edit it - but will be sure to let you know if I can’t 🤣
Tim that name rings a bell from dev group, perhaps a contributor to GivTCP or some carryover from a code merge.
Tim Portainer makes up random names for containers, if you don't set one, nothing to do with me!
FYI, bugs in 1.1.5 & 1.1.6 have been fixed in version 1.1.7
I'm gonna let GivTCP settle in now for a while (no more rapid updates for a week or two 😀 ). Obviously if anyone finds problems do let me know.
I'll have a look at providing better explanation of the ENV (the github readme is pretty out of date!)
Britkat I did try and add some comments to the ones I have in my compose docker file on hoggys unofficial documents wiki.
hoggy I've just come to update the wiki - and don't seem to be able to edit the document.
anglefire ive put it back to pending review, does thay work? (Ironically "Better Docs" documentation is a bit lacking!)
hoggy Yep that works!
I've modified permissions, there was one for being able to edit published docs I'd not ticked so once your sorted we can check if you can edit again without me pushing it back down to pending.
hoggy I've updated it to the latest docker compose file that I use. Britkats docker compose file is slightly different with quotes around the Env variables - but that didn't seem to work for me - but could be just me!
anglefire republished now. May be worth seeing if you can still edit it now if you get time some point.
hoggy Yes - Can edit it - or it says I can and it did open in edit mode 🙂
