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).
Coordinator's _discover_programs is no longer a placeholder. It now
drives client.iter_programs() (v2 path) or the v1 adapter's forward
to OmniClientV1.iter_programs (v1 path), populating OmniData.programs
with decoded Program records keyed by slot. Errors are logged and
swallowed so partial enumeration doesn't break entry setup —
programs are non-critical telemetry.
OmniData.programs is now dict[int, Program] rather than the
ProgramProperties dict that was an empty placeholder. The
ProgramProperties dataclass remains in models.py for the Properties
opcode reply path; only the coordinator's value type changed.
New OmniProgramsSensor on the sensor platform: a single diagnostic
entity per panel whose state is the count of defined programs and
whose 'programs' attribute lists each program's slot, type name,
and schedule fields. Easy to consume from automations and the
developer-states UI.
Mock fixture seeds three programs (TIMED+TIMED+EVENT at slots 12 /
42 / 99). New integration test verifies the sensor enumerates them
in slot-ascending order with the expected per-record fields.
Full suite: 494 passed, 1 skipped (fixture-gated).
First PyPI release of the v1 wire path. Wheel published from local
source 2026-05-11 with omni_pca/v1/ subpackage included.
What's in 2026.5.11 vs 2026.5.10 (already on PyPI):
* New omni_pca.v1 subpackage -- OmniConnectionV1, OmniClientV1,
OmniClientV1Adapter -- for panels that listen on UDP only and
speak the legacy OmniLink (not OmniLink2) wire dialect.
* HA integration wires the adapter into the coordinator when
Transport=UDP is selected at config-flow time; v2/TCP path is
unchanged.
* Streaming UploadNames discovery (bare opcode + lock-step
Acknowledge until EOD/NAK).
* Long-form RequestUnitStatus for unit indices > 255 (sprinklers,
named flags, expansion-enclosure outputs).
* Chunked status polls -- firmware 2.12 NAKs at ~63 records per
request, so we batch in groups of 40.
* OmniConnection.close() now sends ClientSessionTerminated so the
panel frees our session slot immediately on disconnect.
Verified end-to-end against a firmware 2.12 OmniPro II panel at
192.168.1.9: discovery (16 zones, 44 units, 16 buttons, 8 codes,
2 thermostats, 8 messages) + status polling + execute_command
round-trip all working under HA, side-by-side with the existing
TCP mock-panel path in the dev stack.
README: new "Two wire dialects" section explaining when to pick
TCP/OmniClient vs UDP/OmniClientV1.
manifest.json: requirements bump to omni-pca==2026.5.11.
OmniClientV1Adapter (src/omni_pca/v1/adapter.py)
V2-shape facade over OmniClientV1. Exposes the OmniClient surface the
HA coordinator was written against — get_system_information,
list_*_names, get_object_properties (synthesized from streamed names),
get_extended_status (chunked, routed to v1 typed status opcodes),
get_object_status(AREA, ...) (derived from SystemStatus.area_alarms),
events() (EventStream on v1 SystemEvents opcode 35), plus all the
write-method shims.
Chunks unit/zone/thermostat/aux polls per-type because firmware 2.12
NAKs Request*Status with >~62 records in one shot (verified live).
Falls back to "Area 1".."Area 8" when the UploadNames stream returns
zero areas — common on panels where the installer didn't name them.
custom_components/omni_pca/coordinator.py
_ensure_connected picks OmniClientV1Adapter for transport=udp. New
_walk_properties_v1 replaces the v2 RequestProperties walk with a
name-stream + synthesized-Properties pass.
custom_components/omni_pca/config_flow.py
_probe routes to OmniClientV1Adapter for transport=udp instead of
trying to drive v2 OmniClient over UDP (which silently dropped after
handshake, per the earlier diagnosis).
src/omni_pca/events.py
parse_events / _ensure_system_events / EventStream now take an
expected_opcode arg (default v2 SystemEvents=55, v1 callers pass 35).
Word format is byte-identical between v1 and v2, so the typed-event
decoder is unchanged.
src/omni_pca/v1/client.py
_range_status supports the long-form RequestUnitStatus (BE u16
start/end) so panels with unit indices > 255 (sprinklers, flags) work.
Verified end-to-end against firmware 2.12 panel at 192.168.1.9:
config entries:
state=loaded Omni Pro II (host.docker.internal) (mock)
state=loaded Omni Pro II (192.168.1.9) (real, v1+UDP)
real-panel entities created in HA: 96 (30 binary_sensor, 26 light,
15 switch, 13 button, 9 sensor, 3 climate)
cross-check: light.omni_pro_ii_front_porch_2 = on (matches live
probe: unit #2 'FRONT PORCH' state=0x01 brightness=100)
dev/probe_v1_coordinator.py
Coordinator-shaped end-to-end smoke test against the real panel
without HA — drives the full discovery + poll cycle through the
adapter. Useful for regression-checking the v1 wire path.
dev/add_real_panel.py
Programmatically adds the real-panel config entry to the dev HA
stack via the REST config-flow endpoints. Idempotent.
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).
Project moved to a self-hosted Gitea at git.supported.systems under the
warehack.ing org. Updated:
pyproject.toml project.urls.Repository
custom_components/omni_pca/manifest.json documentation, issue_tracker
custom_components/omni_pca/README.md every link
CHANGELOG.md release tag URL
Tests still 351 + 1 skip. No code changed.
Pytest harness (in-process HA + MockPanel)
==========================================
pyproject.toml — bumps requires-python to 3.14.2 to align with HA 2026.5.x
which is what pytest-homeassistant-custom-component pins. Dev group 'ha'
pulls the harness; .python-version updated to 3.14.
src/omni_pca/mock_panel.py — Thermostat (6) and Button (3) RequestProperties
handlers added (previous commit). Without these the HA coordinator's
discovery walk produced empty thermostat/button dicts.
custom_components/omni_pca/services.py — fix CONF_ENTRY_ID import: HA
exports it as ATTR_CONFIG_ENTRY_ID, not CONF_ENTRY_ID. Aliased on import.
tests/conftest.py — re-enables sockets globally (the HA harness installs
pytest_socket which otherwise blocks our network e2e tests).
tests/ha_integration/ — new directory with full HA boot harness:
conftest.py:
- autouse enable_custom_integrations so HA loads our component
- autouse expected_lingering_tasks=True (background event listener)
- autouse _short_scan_interval (1s instead of 30s for fast tests)
- panel fixture: MockPanel on a random localhost port for each test
- configured_panel fixture: builds a MockConfigEntry, runs setup,
yields, then unloads on teardown so the coordinator's reader task
and OmniClient socket close cleanly (otherwise verify_cleanup hangs)
test_setup.py — 12 tests:
- integration loads + system_info populated
- alarm_control_panel/light/switch/climate/button/event/binary_sensor
entities materialise per platform
- unload_entry tears down cleanly
- turning a light on via HA service updates the mock state
- arming via HA service with the right code transitions the area
- arming with wrong code keeps the area disarmed and surfaces error
Total: 351 passed, 1 skipped (PCA fixture). Ruff clean across src/ tests/
custom_components/. The 12 HA integration tests run in <1s end-to-end —
they boot HA in-process, drive the config flow, exercise services, and
verify state mutations on the mock side.
Docker dev stack (manual smoke / screenshots)
=============================================
dev/docker-compose.yml — HA 2026.5 container + MockPanel sidecar.
dev/run_mock_panel.py — long-running mock with a populated state
(5 zones, 4 units, 2 areas, 2 thermostats, 3 buttons, codes 1234/5678).
dev/Makefile — make dev-up / dev-logs / dev-down / dev-mock / dev-reset.
dev/README.md — onboarding walkthrough (host=host.docker.internal,
port=14369, controller_key=000102030405060708090a0b0c0d0e0f).
.gitignore — adds ha-config/ so the persisted HA state from the dev
stack doesn't get committed.
custom_components/omni_pca/services.yaml — declares 7 services with
config_entry selectors so HA's UI gives users a panel picker:
bypass_zone, restore_zone, execute_program, show_message,
clear_message, acknowledge_alerts, send_command (raw escape hatch)
custom_components/omni_pca/services.py — async handlers wired via
async_setup_services on entry setup; idempotent across multiple entries.
Each handler validates entry_id, looks up the right coordinator, calls
the matching OmniClient method. CommandFailedError wrapped to
HomeAssistantError; unknown Command codes raise ServiceValidationError.
async_unload_services removes them when the last entry unloads.
custom_components/omni_pca/diagnostics.py — async_get_config_entry_
diagnostics dumps a redacted snapshot for bug reports: panel model +
firmware, discovered/live counts per object type, sha256-hashed zone/
unit/area names (so uniqueness is visible without leaking PII), last
event class, controller key REDACTED via async_redact_data.
custom_components/omni_pca/__init__.py — wires async_setup_services on
entry setup and async_unload_services on the last entry unload.
custom_components/omni_pca/README.md — full entity table, service list,
example automation, troubleshooting section, link to JOURNEY.md.
Top-level README — entity rundown updated to reflect the full v1.0
surface (was: 'binary_sensor for zones').
331 tests still pass; ruff clean across src/ tests/ custom_components/.
hacs.json already in place from initial scaffold.
custom_components/omni_pca/ — six new platform modules wrapping the
v1.0 client surface. Every command method catches CommandFailedError
and re-raises HomeAssistantError so panel rejections (bad code, etc.)
become user-friendly HA errors instead of silent failures.
alarm_control_panel.py — OmniAreaAlarmPanel per discovered area.
Supports ARM_HOME (Day) / ARM_NIGHT / ARM_AWAY / ARM_VACATION /
ARM_CUSTOM_BYPASS (Day-Instant). State derives from area_status via
pure helpers.security_mode_to_alarm_state which handles arming-in-
progress, entry/exit timers, and active-alarm overrides.
light.py — OmniUnitLight per discovered unit (every unit; non-dimmable
units silently ignore brightness, no harm done). Brightness conversion
via helpers.omni_state_to_ha_brightness / ha_brightness_to_omni_percent
(Omni state byte: 0=off, 1=on, 100..200=brightness percent).
switch.py — OmniZoneBypassSwitch per binary zone. CONFIG entity_category;
pairs with the existing diagnostic 'zone bypassed' binary_sensor.
climate.py — OmniThermostatClimate per discovered thermostat.
Supports OFF / HEAT / COOL / HEAT_COOL hvac_modes; auto / on / diffuse
fan_modes; none / hold / vacation preset_modes. Single-setpoint and
range setpoint via TARGET_TEMPERATURE_RANGE. Fahrenheit native (Omni
panels are F-native; HA handles unit conversion downstream).
sensor.py — analog zones (temperature/humidity/power) + per-thermostat
diagnostic temp/humidity/outdoor sensors + OmniSystemModelSensor
+ OmniLastEventSensor (event_class + parsed event fields as attrs).
button.py — OmniPanelButton per discovered button macro. Programs not
yet exposed because the library lacks RequestProperties for Programs.
event.py — single OmniPanelEvent per panel relaying typed SystemEvents
via _trigger_event. event_types: zone_state_changed, unit_state_changed,
arming_changed, alarm_activated/cleared, ac_lost/restored,
battery_low/restored, user_macro_button, phone_line_dead/restored.
Automations key off platform: event + event_type filter.
helpers.py — extended with security_mode_to_alarm_state,
ARM_SERVICE_TO_SECURITY_MODE, omni_state_to_ha_brightness +
ha_brightness_to_omni_percent, omni/ha_{hvac,fan,hold} round-trips,
fahrenheit_to_omni_raw / celsius_to_omni_raw, analog_zone_device_class,
EVENT_TYPES tuple, event_type_for(class_name).
__init__.py — PLATFORMS extended to all 8 entity types.
scene.py intentionally NOT created — Omni 'scenes' are user-defined
button macros, already covered by the button platform. Documented in
README; revisit if/when the library gains scene-discovery opcodes.
tests/test_ha_helpers.py: +67 unit tests covering every new helper.
331 tests pass (was 264). Ruff clean across src/ tests/ custom_components/.
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.
