Adding BSB-LAN Parameters

This skill guides you through adding new parameters to the python-bsblan library.

Parameter Naming Conventions

• Use snake_case for all parameter names
• Group related parameters with common prefixes
• Legionella-related parameters use legionella_function_* prefix
• DHW (Domestic Hot Water) parameters use dhw_* prefix

Steps to Add a New Parameter

1. Add to constants.py

Add the parameter ID mapping:

CopyBASE_HOT_WATER_PARAMS: Final[dict[str, str]] = {
    "1645": "legionella_function_setpoint",  # Parameter ID: name
}

2. Add to Model in models.py

Add the field to the appropriate dataclass:

Copy@dataclass
class HotWaterConfig(DataClassORJSONMixin):
    legionella_function_setpoint: ParameterValue | None = None

3. Update Method in bsblan.py (if settable)

Add parameter to the method signature:

Copyasync def set_hot_water(
    self,
    legionella_function_setpoint: float | None = None,
) -> None:

4. Add Tests

Create tests in tests/test_*.py:

Copy@pytest.mark.asyncio
async def test_set_hot_water(mock_bsblan: BSBLAN) -> None:
    """Test setting BSBLAN hot water state."""
    await mock_bsblan.set_hot_water(nominal_setpoint=60.0)
    mock_bsblan._request.assert_awaited_with(
        base_path="/JS",
        data={"Parameter": "1610", "Value": "60.0", "Type": "1"},
    )

Polling Categories

Parameters are organized by update frequency:

• Fast Poll (State): Current temperatures, HVAC action/state, pump states
• Slow Poll (Config): Operating modes, setpoints, legionella settings, time programs
• Static: Device identification, min/max temperature limits

Hot Water Parameter Groups

Hot water parameters use granular lazy loading. When adding a new hot water param, add it to the appropriate group in constants.py:

Copy# In constants.py - add to appropriate group set:
HOT_WATER_ESSENTIAL_PARAMS: Final[set[str]] = {"1600", "1610", ...}
HOT_WATER_CONFIG_PARAMS: Final[set[str]] = {"1601", "1614", ...}

Concurrency Safety

The library uses asyncio locks to prevent race conditions:

• _section_locks: Per-section locks for lazy loading
• _hot_water_group_locks: Per-group locks for hot water validation

When adding new sections or groups, the lock is created automatically on first access.

Validation

Always run after changes:

Copyuv run pre-commit run --all-files
uv run pytest --cov=src/bsblan --cov-report=term-missing
