I think, when I last checked the docs for this method it returned None

I changed the docstring here…

Add key hierarchy (take 3) (#207)

@rlkoshak

I assume that’s what you fixed and it hasn’t rolled out yet?

Correct… I have not submitted a PR yet…

    Returns:
        str, decimal, boolean, None, or dict: The ``configuration`` key value
        will be returned. Since None is a valid value for a key, when the key,
        Item or namespace does not exist, this function will return an empty
        dictionary.

@rlkoshak

That and, for most practical purposes, there isn’t a whole lot of difference between having a key whose value is None and a key that isn’t present.

When/if you do, core.metadata.get_key_value will be able to handle it, since it can differentiate between null and undefined metadata key values.

What should be in the weather.map file?

String vTimeOfDay "Current Time of Day [MAP(weather.map):%s]"

I forgot I left that in. It just maps the all caps time if day states to all lowercase for consistency in my Sitemap. Do you will see stuff like

DAY=day
