Commandable Objects

[kheldaroz402]

Hi Joel,

I've started converting my code to bacpypes3.

In bacpypes we had commandable objects - do they exist in bacpypes3 or is it done differently?

eg

from bacpypes.local.object import (
    AnalogValueCmdObject,
    AnalogOutputCmdObject,
    BinaryOutputCmdObject,
    BinaryValueCmdObject,
    DateValueCmdObject,
    MultiStateValueCmdObject,
    MultiStateOutputCmdObject

)

See this link to a gist. Legacy bacpypes repo has a mini device in the samples for a simple BACnet server and there is a bacpypes3 version but I don't think its in the repo. You have to make a Class for a commandable object in your app instead importing a commandable object which was the legacy bacpypes way. mini_device_revisited.py https://gist.github.com/bbartling/573030a2facc97e178b2362606b9cdda#file-mini_device_revisited-py Let me know if you have any questions hopefully the link works I am typing from my phone.

Look in the bacpypes3.local... modules which are intended for servers/gateways:

from bacpypes3.local.binary import BinaryValueObjectCmd
from bacpypes3.local.analog import AnalogValueObjectCmd

Note that BinaryOutputObject and AnalogOutputObject are always Commandable and there are other variants as well, like intrinsic reporting and fault detection. There are lots of places for improvements, especially considering the overlap of different kinds of functionality and side effects (by which I mean changes in one property imply changes to other properties).

All of these things are going to need tests as outlined by ASHRAE 135.1.

p.s.- I didn't realize I swapped the Object and Cmd part. Humph.
