Fetching past forecasts

[bertrandkerres]

Hi,

I have a setup like this (drawn by ChatGPT ;) )::

                         +-----------------------------+
                         |      Compute Environment     |
                         |                             |
                         |  +----------------------+   |
                         |  | Controller Test Set 1 |   |
                         |  |                      |   |
                         |  | +-----------+        |   |
                         |  | | Controller|        |   |
                         |  | +-----+-----+        |   |
                         |  |       |              |   |
                         |  |  +----------+        |   |
                         |  |  |  BOPTEST  |        |   |
                         |  |  +----------+        |   |
                         |  +----------------------+   |
                         |        ...                  |
                         |  +----------------------+   |
                         |  | Controller Test Set N |   |
                         |  |                      |   |
                         |  | +-----------+        |   |
                         |  | | Controller|        |   |
                         |  | +-----+-----+        |   |
                         |  |       |              |   |
                         |  |  +----------+        |   |
                         |  |  |  BOPTEST  |        |   |
                         |  |  +----------+        |   |
                         |  +----------------------+   |
                         +-----------------------------+

                                     ^
                                     |
                                     | REST
                                     v

                    +-----------------------------------------+
                    |            Local Front End              |
                    |                (Plots)                  |
                    +-----------------------------------------+

The local front end queries measurements and forecasts from BOPTEST and displays them. It does not have any control over when the plant is advanced.

To show the trajectories of the different controllers, it would be nice to have a access to the forecasts of the past. As I understand it, BOPTEST only returns future forecasts, relative to the current time step of the plant.

Would that be possible to add?
