[Feature] Next Stage scheduled about node-red-contrib-eskomsepush HOT 3 CLOSED

Thanks. I am not 100% certain if I understand the request right. Please correct me when I am wrong.

I think that it is a matter of checking if there is a difference between calc.stage and calc.next.stage, in case the next shedding is because of an event.

That would end up look something like this:

Let me know if that seems about right.

Hi Dirkjanfaber

Can you please help me.
I'm trying to integrate with your EskomsePush by using your second output.
How and what do I use to get the start and end time of the current load-shedding as well as the time for the next expected load-shedding.
I want to use this to switch off the inverter before load-shedding starts (10min prior) and reconnect the inverter after 10min once grid has returned.
I'm experiencing huge surges and want to avoid them before load-shedding happens and after grid returned.
The Eskomsepush node is up and running and is showing the current stage and time in my area just need to know how to get those info as mentioned above.

Kind Regards,
J

@Johan-Bo : I would use the first output and look at msg.calc.next.start and msg.calc.next.end fields. Or perhaps even msg.calc.secondstostatechange

But I do not want to hijack this issue with something unrelated. So closing this one (as isHigherState has just been added to the latest release). Please file a new issue.
