v0.1.0

Tooling Library for Notebooks Release Notes

Summary

This is the first release of the library with the Solar Maintenance App! 🎉
The repo provides tools to monitor and maintain solar energy systems with the following key features:

• Data Fetching and Processing: Retrieve and preprocess weather and solar production data from external APIs (frequenz-api-weather and frequenz-client-reporting).
• Prediction Model Preparation: Prepare basic time series models for solar power predictions.
• Visualisation Tools: Generate calendar views, rolling averages, production profiles and daily statistics available via the *Plotter classes. Control what/how much data to show and how to display it using the corresponding configuration options. Customise the plots using tools like PlotStyleStrategy and PlotManager.
• Translation Support: Enable English and German translations via the TranslationManager class, for controlling all text displayed on the plots and tables.
• Single Entry Point: Integrate data fetching, processing and visualisations into a main workflow.
• Notification Service: Send alert notifications via email with support for scheduling and retries, including a linear backoff mechanism.

This release provides tools to solar system operators to monitor performance and track trends, and lays the groundwork for identifying potential system issues.

Moreover it includes a microgrid config module that contains component configs to get component IDs and formulas for component types (e.g. PV, battery) and metadata information (e.g. gridpool ID).
