Version 6.7.4

Changed:

• Improved the astronomy:updateCometPhotometry artisan command (src/deepskylog/AstronomyLibrary/Commands/UpdateCometPhotometry.php):
  • Add configurable HTTP client verification via environment variables: AERITH_VERIFY (accepts true/false or a path to a CA bundle) and AERITH_CA_BUNDLE to allow running in environments with custom CA bundles or where verification needs disabling for troubleshooting.
  • Use a short request timeout and a browser-like User-Agent to reduce simple blocking by aerith.net.
  • Expand and harden aerith.net lookup heuristics: generate multiple candidate URLs (name-based slugs, zero-padded periodic designations such as 0103P, plain designation directories, and year-specific pages), try directory pages and prefer newest year pages when available, and fall back gracefully to directory/index pages.
  • More robust HTML parsing for photometry: scan page text nodes for H = ..., n = ... and phase coefficient patterns and persist discovered values to the comets_orbital_elements model (H, n, phase_coeff). Improved logging when photometry is found or not.
  • Improved error handling around HTTP requests (404 handling, request exception logging and continued attempts against other candidate URLs).
  • Added an SBDB fallback helper method (sbdbFallback) to query JPL's SBDB API for an H value when aerith.net scraping does not yield photometry (method included for fallback resolution).

Fixed / Notes:

• The photometry updater is now more resilient to variation in aerith.net page layout and index pages; environments with custom CA bundles or strict SSL settings should set AERITH_VERIFY/AERITH_CA_BUNDLE appropriately.
