- Move n2yo_api_key and airnow_api_key from [Solar_Config] to [External_Data]
- Update code references to use [External_Data] section instead of [Solar_Config]
- Update config.ini.example to match the new organization
- Improve error message to specify the correct config section
- This provides better organization with all external API keys in one place
- Remove all Python bytecode cache files from git tracking
- These files are automatically generated and should not be committed
- __pycache__/ is already properly excluded in .gitignore
- This cleans up the repository and follows Python best practices
- Suppress raw JSON output from meshcore-cli commands during channel fetching
- Make channel logging more concise - only show channel names instead of full data structures
- Redirect stdout temporarily to /dev/null during next_cmd calls to prevent verbose output
- This eliminates the duplicate channel information that was being printed twice
- Remove problematic debug and log command attempts that cause 'Unknown command' errors
- Replace remaining print statement in meshcore_protocol.py with proper logging
- Add explanatory comment about debug mode availability
- This eliminates the ERROR messages seen in the logs during startup
- Replace next_cmd approach with direct meshcore.commands.send_advert(flood=True)
- Add 2-second delay before sending startup advert to ensure connection is established
- Simplify error handling since send_advert() is more reliable
- Apply same fix to manual advert command for consistency
- This should resolve the issue where flood adverts weren't being sent on startup
- Convert debug print statements in meshcore_protocol.py to proper logging
- Add comment explaining print statement in core.py (used during initialization)
- All debug/error messages now use logger instead of print
- Maintains existing logging infrastructure and patterns
- Improves production readiness and debugging capabilities
