1abdd345c4 fix: unify mypy environments for local checks and CI (#1291)
The isolated pre-commit mypy hook previously omitted runtime type information that
make mypy used, hiding errors involving dependencies such as Pydantic and Pendulum.
Makefile, pre-commit and CI now run the same full-project typing policy in the
development environment defined by uv.lock.

- Use uv run --locked --exact --extra dev and the same mypy arguments for Makefile
  and the local hook. Check all of src and tests, including on configuration-only
  changes.
- Pin Python 3.13 for local development and the pre-commit CI job, and install the
  locked pre-commit version in CI.
- Disable incremental analysis because existing Pendulum cache state changes mypy 2.3.1
  diagnostics. Document the policy, the performance tradeoff and the existing typing debt.
- Add a regression test that exercises Makefile, the hook and the CI command in a
  temporary project, accepting valid dependency types and detecting deliberate
  Pydantic/Pendulum assignment errors.

Resolve the newly detected mypy diagnostics.

- Enable the numpydantic and Pydantic mypy plugins, retaining strict Pydantic
  constructor typing with init_typed = true. Validate raw/coercible payloads through model_validate.
- Propagate concrete record, provider and time-window types through generic collections,
  factories and lookup methods. Preserve runtime field inspection and generated time-window
  documentation.
- Align Pendulum annotations with actual factory/arithmetic results while retaining Pydantic
  validation adapters at runtime. Correct optional values, array boundaries, REST handlers
  and plotting interfaces.
- Add pinned scipy-stubs and types-psutil, update uv.lock, and supply the plugins' dependencies.
- Add runtime regression coverage for validated path defaults, normalized time-series metadata,
  generic field inspection, invalid timestamps and unsupported provider imports.

Runtime and compatibility details:

- Validate path defaults as Path objects while retaining raw string defaults needed by
  migration serialization with exclude_defaults.
- Normalize feed-in tariff lists and default charge rates to NumPy arrays; reject missing
  timestamps/uninitialized values explicitly. Importing into a provider without import support
  returns HTTP 400.
- Public JSON schemas and OpenAPI structure match main (excluding the generated version).

Contributing to EOS

Thanks for taking the time to read this!

The EOS project is in early development, therefore we encourage contribution in the following ways:

Documentation

Latest development documentation can be found at Akkudoktor-EOS.

Bug Reports

Please report flaws or vulnerabilities in the GitHub Issue Tracker using the corresponding issue template.

Ideas & Features

Issues in the GitHub Issue Tracker are also fine to discuss ideas and features.

You may first discuss the idea in the Akkudoktor Forum before opening an issue.

Code Contributions

We welcome code contributions and bug fixes via Pull Requests. To make collaboration easier, we require pull requests to pass code style, unit tests, and commit message style checks.

Setup development environment

Use uv to create the virtual environment and install development dependencies.

uv sync --locked --extra dev

Install make to get access to helpful shortcuts (documentation generation, manual formatting, etc.).

  • On Linux (Ubuntu/Debian):

    sudo apt install make
    
  • On MacOS (requires Homebrew):

    brew install make
    

The server can be started with make run. A full overview of the main shortcuts is given by make help.

Code Style

All code, comments, docstrings, identifiers and API field names are written in English.

Our code style checks use pre-commit.

To run formatting automatically before every commit:

uv run --locked --extra dev pre-commit install
uv run --locked --extra dev pre-commit install --hook-type commit-msg --hook-type pre-push

Or run them manually:

uv run --locked --extra dev pre-commit run --all-files

Static typing

Use uv on your PATH and the Python version pinned in .python-version (also used by the pre-commit CI job). The supported typing entry points are:

make mypy
uv run --locked --extra dev pre-commit run mypy --all-files

Both run uv run --locked --exact --extra dev python -m mypy --config-file pyproject.toml. CI runs the same local pre-commit hook. The environment includes all runtime dependencies and development stubs from uv.lock, including the type information supplied by Pydantic and Pendulum. --locked rejects an out-of-date lockfile instead of updating it, and --exact removes packages outside the selected locked dependencies. Keep the Makefile and hook commands identical.

[tool.mypy] in pyproject.toml defines the policy for all of src and tests, targeting Python 3.13 and Linux. The hook always checks this complete scope, including on configuration-only changes. It does not add the old mirror hook's --ignore-missing-imports or --scripts-are-modules defaults. Only the existing per-module missing-import exceptions in pyproject.toml apply. Incremental analysis is disabled because mypy 2.3.1 produces different Pendulum diagnostics with warm and empty caches. Each entry point therefore performs a full analysis; this costs time but keeps diagnostics independent of cache history without suppressing checks.

To regression-test the entry points run:

uv run --locked --extra dev pytest -q --finalize tests/test_typingmypytoolchain.py

This test creates a temporary project and a fresh locked development environment and hook/type-check caches. It verifies valid Pydantic and Pendulum assignments, then deliberate type errors in both src and tests, through Makefile, a configuration-only hook run, and the CI command. All probes stay in the temporary project. It may download locked packages; set UV_CACHE_DIR to an empty temporary directory as well to verify without a warm package cache.

Tests

Use pytest to run tests locally:

uv run python -m pytest -vs --cov src --cov-report term-missing tests/

Commit message style

Our commit message checks use commitizen. The checks enforce the Conventional Commits commit message style.

You may use commitizen also to create a commit message and commit your change.

Thank you!

And last but not least thanks to all our contributors
