mqtt api smartcost limit

[jeffborg]

Quick one,

Smartcost got changed in the last few months where 0 before meant disable

so publishing to evcc/loadpoints/1/smartCostLimit/set topic a 0 disabled it.

does anybody know how to do this now, Tried searching the code can't seem to find the answer for mqtt api

Thanks

Just tested it here (with CO2 limits, not price). It works exactly so. Value of "0" disables, any other value sets this value as new limit.

The price used to work this way but for price negative values are allowed so the value 0 no longer disables.  I used to set to 0 to disable but this no longer works. I guess I could set to something stilly like $-500 but that isn’t setting it to none as per the ui now. On 11 Oct 2024, at 4:05 PM, 0x3d13f ***@***.***> wrote: Just tested it here (with CO2 limits, not price).

Sure, with negative prices "0" is a valid setting. For CO2 the value of "0" is an implicit disable.

try "nothing"

@VolkerK62 no doesn't work. Closest thing I can find is this code from the pr which introduced it https://github.com/evcc-io/evcc/pull/14855/files#diff-27b2c176b2d69874c2d9eb44e02bc5a25db841d40e56ae32f10dfdaab772264bR31 but a blank string being checked is after the attempt to parse the float.

There was a discussion about that, but I couldn´t find it

If it would help, REST API has a "delete" option.
