1.6.0

[jertel]

Breaking changes

• Replaced Minute with Hour as normal interval since history is limited to 7 days from Emporia on minute data
• argparse libary was added, must run pip install -r requirements.txt again in the src directory (or pip3 based on install)

New features

• Hour / Day historic data retrieval: allows for history of up to two years to be pulled. Assists in clean numbers/graphs to see daily monthly usage to compare against utilities reports.
• Hour data runs with the get details time, default is 1 hour (3600 seconds). Based on when the program is started, you may be almost 2 hours behind for get hour.
• Moved one-time parameters out of the json config file. Those parameters are now specified as command line arguments (--historydays, --resetdatabase).
