Contributing to House Plan
Thanks for your interest! The project is one HACS package: a storage integration
(custom_components/houseplan/, Python) and a Lovelace card (src/, TypeScript + Lit).
Where to ask
Not sure whether something is a bug, or just want to discuss an idea before writing code? The Telegram chat @ha_houseplan is the quickest route to the author and other users. Bugs and concrete feature requests still belong in issues.
Five-minute setup
git clone https://github.com/Matysh/houseplan-card && cd houseplan-card
npm ci # frontend toolchain
npm run typecheck # tsc --noEmit (strict)
npm test # node:test — pure logic, i18n parity, tap-action security
npm run build # tsc + rollup → dist/houseplan-card.js
pip install pytest voluptuous && python -m pytest tests_backend -q # pure backend tests
The HA-harness backend tests (tests_backend/test_ha_*.py) need Python ≥3.13 and
pytest-homeassistant-custom-component home-assistant-frontend; CI runs them on
every push — locally they are skipped when homeassistant is not importable.
Ground rules
- Docs in the same commit: CHANGELOG entry for user-visible changes;
docs/STATUS.mdfor state changes;docs/DEVELOPMENT.mdfor new gotchas. - Every UI string goes through
src/i18n/<lang>.json(tests enforce en/ru key parity). Adding a language = adding one JSON file + registering it insrc/i18n.ts. - The built card must be committed in sync:
cp dist/houseplan-card.js custom_components/houseplan/frontend/(CI compares them byte-for-byte). - Tap actions have a security model (locks/alarms never toggle from the plan) —
see
resolveTapActioninsrc/logic.ts; don't weaken it. - Follow the Integration Quality Scale where applicable —
custom_components/houseplan/quality_scale.yamltracks the self-assessment.
Architecture
Start with docs/ARCHITECTURE.md (data model, WS API, coordinate system) and
docs/STATUS.md (current state). Release: bump the version in package.json,
manifest.json, const.py, CARD_VERSION, tag vX.Y.Z, publish a GitHub release —
the workflow attaches the card bundle.
