8.15.0 (2023-01-13)

This release fixes several bugs and changes how measurement timestamps are returned from the time-series database.

InfluxDB Changes

Since support for InfluxDB 2.x was added, in order to make data that's returned from the time-series database more consistent, all timestamps from internal Mycodo functions will be returned as a decimal epoch value. Please update any custom modules or code to incorporate this change.

Previous behavior: InfluxDB 1.x returned data as a date/time string value (e.g. 2022-10-31T14:49:25.034447Z).

New Behavior: InfluxDB 1.x returned data as an epoch float value (e.g. 1667228575.557).

Camera Changes

Cameras integration was initially built into the Mycodo system. This made it difficult for users to add new camera libraries or features unless they learned the codebase well enough to understand the many files needed to be modified. This release allows for camera functinality to be developed within a single Function module file. This enables users to more easily develop and implement their own Camera Functions or modify existing Camera Functions to add new features.

As this system is developed, the original camera system will be phased out, as it's a lot of work to maintain two different camera systems. As of now, there is only one Camera Function (libcamera). This should be considered EXPERIMENTAL and only used to test the development of this new feature until it is considered stable.
