0.103 - Undocumented Breaking Change?

One of the first things I did nearly two years ago in HA was my garden irrigation. We have plenty of rain here at the moment so I am not currently using it but other people it seems, are.

Yesterday I saw someone posted that it had broken in a small easily fixed way after upgrading to v0.103.

I’m just wondering if this is a (un)known breaking change because I didn’t see anything about it and in any case I thought everything passed between scripts were strings.

I call a script like this:

      - service: script.update_next_runtime
        data_template:
          cycle: 1

the called script might use the cycle number like this:

      - service: input_text.set_value
        data_template:
          entity_id: 'input_text.cycle{{ cycle }}_current_zone'

Which I am told is causing a type error:

TypeError: can only concatenate str (not "int") to str

And that changing it to

      cycle: '1'

fixes the problem.

Maybe you’ll say it is just something that has been rectified and that I shouldn’t have been doing that way in the first place (which I suppose could be a fair comment). But I’m interested if something changed?

Anyway as I said I haven’t checked this directly but the original post is here: My Garden Irrigation
