pip install switch_api

History

0.5.3

Added

• In the integration module:
  • Added override_existing parameter in upsert_discovered_records
  • Flag if it the values passed to df will override existing integration records. Only valid if running locally, not on a deployed task where it is triggered via UI.
  • Defaults to False

0.5

Added

• In the pipeline module:
  • Added a new task type called Guide.
    • this task type should be sub-classed in concert with one of the Task sub-classes when deploying a guide to the marketplace.
  • Added a new method to the Automation class called register_guide_task()
    • this method is used to register tasks that sub-class the Guide task and also posts form files to blob and registers the guide to the Marketplace.
• New _guide module - only to be referenced when doing initial development of a Guide
  • guide's `local_start' method
    • Allows to run mock guides engine locally that ables to debug Guide task types with Form Kit playground.

Fixed

• In controls module:
  • modify submit_control method parameters - typings
  • remove extra columns from payload to IoT API requests

0.4.9

Added

• New method added in automation module:
  • run_data_feed() - Run python job based on data feed id. This will be sent to the queue for processing and will undergo same procedure as the rest of the datafeed.
    • Required parameters are api_inputs and data_feed_id
    • This has a restriction of only allowing an AnalyticsTask type datafeed to be run and deployed as a Timer
• New method added in analytics module:
  • upsert_performance_statistics - this method should only be used by tasks used to populate the Portfolio Benchmarking feature in the Switch Automation platform
• New controls module added and new method added to this module:
  • submit_control() - method to submit control of sensors
    • this method returns a tuple: (control_response, missing_response):
      • control_response - is the list of sensors that are acknowledged and process by the MQTTT message broker
      • missing_response = is the list of sensors that are sensors that were caught by the connection time_out - default to 30 secs - meaning the response were no longer waited to be received by the python package. Increasing the time out can potentially help with this.

Fixed

• In the integration module, minor fixes to:
  • An unhandled exception when using pandas==2.1.1 on the following functions:
    • upsert_sites()
    • upsert_device_sensors()
    • upsert_device_sensors_ext()
    • upsert_workorders()
    • upsert_timeseries_ds()
    • upsert_timeseries()
  • Handle deprecation of pandas.DataFrame.append() on the following functions:
    • upsert_device_sensors()
    • upsert_device_sensors_ext()
  • An unhandled exception for connect_to_sql() function when the internal API call within _get_sql_connection_string() fails.

0.4.8

Added

• New class added to the pipeline module:
  • BlobTask - This class is used to create integrations that post data to the Switch Automation Platform using a blob container & Event Hub Queue as the source.
    • Please Note: This task type requires external setup in Azure by Switch Automation Developers before a task can be registered or deployed.
    • requires process_file() abstract method to be created when sub-classing
• New method, deploy_as_on_demand_data_feed() added to the Automation class of the pipeline module
  • this new method is only applicable for tasks that subclass the BlobTask base class.
• In the integration module, new helper methods have been added:
  • connect_to_sql() method creates a pyodbc connection object to enable easier querying of the SQL database via the pyodbc library
  • amortise_across_days() method enables easier amortisation of data across days in a period, either inclusive or exclusive of end date.
  • get_metadata_where_clause() method enables creation of sql_where_clause for the get_device_sensors() method where for each metadata key the sql checks its not null.
• In the error_handlers module:
  • check_duplicates() method added to check for duplicates & post appropriate errors to Task Insights UI in the Switch Automation platform.
• In the _utils._utils module:
  • requests_retry_session2 helper function added to enable automatic retries of API calls

Updated

• In the integration module:

  • New parameter include_removed_sites added to the get_sites() function.
    • Determines whether or not to include sites marked as "IsRemoved" in the returned dataframe.
    • Defaults to False, indicating removed sites will not be included.
  • Updated theget_device_sensor() method to check if requested metadata keys or requested tag groups exist for the portfolio and exception if they don't.
  • New parameter send_notification added to the upsert_timeseries() function.
    • This enables Iq Notification messages to be sent when set to True
    • Defaults to False
  • For the get_sites(), get_device_sensors() and get_data() functions, additional parameters have been added to allow customisation of the newly implemented retry logic:
    • retries : int
      • Number of retries performed beforereturning last retry instance's response status. Max retries = 10. Defaults to 0 currently for backwards compatibility.
    • backoff_factor
      • If A backoff factor to apply between attempts after the second try (most errors are resolved immediately by a second try without a delay). {backoff factor} * (2 ** ({retry count} - 1)) seconds

• In the error_handlers module:

  • For the validate_datetime function, added two new parameters to enable automatic posting of errors to the Switch Platform:
    • errors : boolean, defaults to False. To enable posting of errors, set to True.
    • api_inputs: defaults to None. Needs to be set to the object returned from switch_api.initialize() if errors=True.

Fixed

• In the integration module:
  • Resolved outlier scenario resulting in unhandled exception on the upsert_sites() function.
  • Minor fix to the upsert_discovered_records() method to handle the case when unexpected columns are present in the dataframe passed to df input parameter

0.4.6

Added

• Task Priority and Task Framework data feed deployment settings
  • Task Priority and Task Framework are now available to set when deploying data feeds
    • Task Priority
      • Determines the priority of the datafeed tasks when processing.
      • This equates to how much resources would be alloted to run the task
      • Available options are: default, standard, or advanced.
        • set to advanced for higher resource when processing data feed task
      • Defaults to 'default'.
    • Task Framework
      • Determines the framework of the datafeed tasks when processing.
        • 'PythonScriptFramework' for the old task runner engine.
        • 'TaskInsightsEngine' for the new task running in container apps.
        • Defaults to 'PythonScriptFramework'

0.4.5

Added

• Email Sender Module
  • Send emails to active users within a Portfolio in Switch Automation Platform
  • Limitations:
    • Emails cannot be sent to users outside of the Portfolio including other users within the platform
    • Maximum of five attachments per email
    • Each attachment has a maximum size of 5mb
  • See function code documentation and usage example below
