Adds CONF_PCA_PATH + CONF_PCA_KEY config-flow fields. When set, the
coordinator parses programs from the .pca file at that path instead
of streaming them over the wire on every entry refresh. Useful for:
* deployments where wire enumeration is slow (1500-slot iteration)
* offline snapshots when the panel is unreachable
* deterministic test setups against a known fixture
The config-flow validates the file is readable and decrypts cleanly,
surfacing pca_not_found / pca_decode_failed errors via the strings/
en.json translations.
The .pca path is checked first in _discover_programs; if absent the
wire path runs as before. So existing deployments are unaffected.
Tests cover the success path (live fixture, 330 programs) and the
two validation failures (missing file, garbage bytes).
custom_components/omni_pca/const.py:
+ CONF_TRANSPORT, TRANSPORT_TCP, TRANSPORT_UDP, DEFAULT_TRANSPORT='tcp'
custom_components/omni_pca/config_flow.py:
+ 'transport' field in _USER_SCHEMA with vol.In([tcp, udp]),
default tcp (so existing flows are unchanged)
+ transport stored in entry.data on create
+ reauth carries the existing transport over from entry.data
+ _probe() takes transport=, propagates to OmniClient
custom_components/omni_pca/coordinator.py:
+ transport= constructor arg, defaults to 'tcp'
+ _ensure_connected passes transport= through to OmniClient
custom_components/omni_pca/__init__.py:
+ reads transport from entry.data (default tcp), passes to coordinator
Backward-compat: existing config entries without a transport key fall
through to 'tcp', identical to current behavior. New entries get the
choice at the config-flow form. The reauth step preserves the existing
transport so users don't have to re-pick it.
357 tests pass; ruff clean across src/ tests/ custom_components/.
HA integration tests don't need updating because they don't pass
transport= explicitly (default tcp matches the mock's default).
custom_components/omni_pca/coordinator.py — full rewrite:
- Long-lived OmniClient for entry lifetime
- One-shot discovery: system info + zone/unit/area/thermostat/button names
via list_*_names + per-index get_object_properties
- Periodic poll (30s default): get_extended_status for zones/units/thermostats,
get_object_status for areas, skip empty discoveries
- Background _run_event_listener task consuming client.events(), patches
state in-place and async_set_updated_data on push:
ZoneStateChanged -> patch zone_status raw byte
UnitStateChanged -> patch unit_status state, preserve brightness
ArmingChanged -> patch area_status mode + last_user
AlarmActivated/Cleared -> trigger refresh
AcLost/Restored, BatteryLow/Restored -> recorded for sensors
- InvalidEncryptionKeyError/HandshakeError -> ConfigEntryAuthFailed (HA reauth)
- OmniConnectionError/RequestTimeoutError -> UpdateFailed + drop client
- Event task cancelled in async_shutdown
custom_components/omni_pca/binary_sensor.py — full rewrite:
- OmniZoneBinarySensor per discovered zone (device class from zone type:
smoke/water/freeze use latched-alarm bit; doors/motion use current condition)
- OmniZoneBypassedBinarySensor per zone (DIAGNOSTIC, PROBLEM)
- OmniSystemAcBinarySensor (POWER, prefers AcLost/AcRestored push)
- OmniSystemBatteryBinarySensor (BATTERY)
- OmniSystemTroubleBinarySensor (PROBLEM)
custom_components/omni_pca/helpers.py — pure functions extracted for testing:
- device_class_for_zone_type, is_binary_zone_type, use_latched_alarm_for_zone,
prettify_name. 61 unit tests in tests/test_ha_helpers.py.
docs/JOURNEY.md — 4383-word raw chronological retrospective of the whole
arc from binary archive to working library. 18 dated sections including
the 2191-byte magic-number header validation moment, the two non-public
protocol quirks, the offline-panel comedy. Source material for future
writeups (intentionally raw, not polished).
264 tests pass (was 203, +61 helper tests). Ruff clean across all dirs.
custom_components/omni_pca/ — drop-in HA integration:
- manifest.json (HA 2026.x, iot_class=local_push, requires omni-pca lib)
- config_flow.py — host/port/controller_key with auth + reauth steps,
parse_controller_key() extracted as pure testable function
- coordinator.py — OmniDataUpdateCoordinator with long-lived OmniClient,
unsolicited push wiring, ConfigEntryAuthFailed on bad key, reconnect on err
- binary_sensor.py — one entity per named zone, zone_type -> device_class map
(OPENING/MOTION/SMOKE/etc), is_on derived from ZoneProperties.status
- const.py, strings.json, translations/en.json, README.md
- hacs.json at root for HACS distribution
tests: 97 pass + 2 skip (HA harness not installed; importorskip in
test_ha_imports.py). 12 cases for parse_controller_key validation.
Ruff clean across src/ tests/ custom_components/. Status of HA component
itself NOT validated against a running HA — needs that next.
