SyntaxWarning: invalid escape sequence '\W' return re.sub("\W+", "", string)

[Doorshifter]

The problem

After every HA reboot I get this warning:

Logger: py.warnings Source: components/solaredge/coordinator.py:10 First occurred: 08:08:15 (1 occurrences) Last logged: 08:08:15 /usr/local/lib/python3.13/site-packages/stringcase.py:247: SyntaxWarning: invalid escape sequence '\W' return re.sub("\W+", "", string)

This warning was introduced in Python 3.6 as a DeprecationWarning and changed to a SyntaxWarning in Python 3.12, from what I can find.

The warning doesn't affect functionality currently, but I think it indicates that this code may break in future Python versions.

Additional information

To me this could be a solution, but I am not completely sure:
replace 'return re.sub("\W+", "", string)' by 'return re.sub(r"\W+", "", string)'?
