I seem to be unable to get the sunset and sunrise vars to work.

This is running on home assistant under esxi using the official vmware image and is using the latest versions of everything.

Any suggestions on the cause ?

appdaemon.yaml:

appdaemon:
  elevation: 41m
  latitude: 1.3XXXX
  longitude: 103.XXXXX
  unit_system: metric
  time_zone: Asia/Singapore

apps.yaml:

suntest:
  module: suntest
  class: SunTest

suntest.py:

import hassapi as hass
class SunTest(hass.Hass):

    def initialize(self):
        self.log('Test sunset/sunrise:')
        self.log(self.parse_time('sunset'))
        self.log(self.parse_time('sunrise'))

This results in:
