Detected Bug
The custom integration localtuya
is setting state directly. Entity None
(<class 'custom_components.localtuya.alarm_control_panel.LocalTuyaAlarmControlPanel'
>) should implement the 'alarm_state'
property and return its state using the AlarmControlPanelState
enum. This will stop working in Home Assistant 2025.11, please create a bug report at https://github.com/xZetsubou/hass-localtuya/issues.

Bug Fix: Implementing 'alarm_state' Property
To fix this bug, you'll need to implement the 'alarm_state'
property in the LocalTuyaAlarmControlPanel
component. This property should return the state of the alarm using the AlarmControlPanelState
enum.
Here's an example of how you can implement the 'alarm_state'
property:
from homeassistant.components.alarm_control_panel import AlarmControlPanel
class LocalTuyaAlarmControlPanel(LocalTuyaBaseEntity, AlarmControlPanel):
def __init__(self, device):
super().__init__(device)
self._alarm_state = None
@property
def alarm_state(self):
return self._alarm_state
def set_alarm_state(self, state):
self._alarm_state = state
In this example, we've added a new property called alarm_state
to the LocalTuyaAlarmControlPanel
class. This property returns the current state of the alarm, which is stored in the _alarm_state
attribute. We've also added a new method called set_alarm_state
to update the alarm state.
In this article, we've discussed a critical bug fix for the LocalTuyaAlarmControlPanel
component, which is part of the localtuya
custom integration. This bug affects the alarm_state
property and will stop working in Home Assistant 2025.11. We've provided you with the necessary steps to resolve this issue and implemented the 'alarm_state'
property in the LocalTuyaAlarmControlPanel
component. By following these steps, you'll ensure that your Home Assistant setup remains compatible with the latest versions of the localtuya
custom integration.

Q&A: Implementing 'alarm_state' Property in LocalTuyaAlarmControlPanel
In our previous article, we discussed a critical bug fix for the LocalTuyaAlarmControlPanel
component, which is part of the localtuya
custom integration. This bug affects the alarm_state
property and will stop working in Home Assistant 2025.11. We've provided you with the necessary steps to resolve this issue and implemented the 'alarm_state'
property in the LocalTuyaAlarmControlPanel
component.
In this Q&A article, we'll address some common questions and concerns related to implementing the 'alarm_state'
property in the LocalTuyaAlarmControlPanel
component.
Q: What is the purpose of the 'alarm_state' property?
A: The alarm_state
property is used to return the state of the alarm using the AlarmControlPanelState
enum. This property is required to ensure compatibility with the latest versions of the localtuya
custom integration.
Q: How do I implement the 'alarm_state' property in the LocalTuyaAlarmControlPanel component?
A: To implement the alarm_state
property, you'll need to add a new property called alarm_state
to the LocalTuyaAlarmControlPanel
class. This property should return the current state of the alarm, which is stored in the _alarm_state
attribute. You can use the following code as a reference:
from homeassistant.components.alarm_control_panel import AlarmControlPanel
class LocalTuyaAlarmControlPanel(LocalTuyaBaseEntity, AlarmControlPanel):
def __init__(self, device):
super().__init__(device)
self._alarm_state = None
@property
def alarm_state(self):
return self._alarm_state
def set_alarm_state(self, state):
self._alarm_state = state
Q: What is the AlarmControlPanelState
enum?
A: The AlarmControlPanelState
enum is a predefined set of states that can be used to represent the state of an alarm. These states include ALARM_ON
, ALARM_OFF
, ARMING
, DISARMING
, and NOT_ARMED
.
Q: How do I use the AlarmControlPanelState
enum in my code?
A: To use the AlarmControlPanelState
enum in your code, you'll need to import it from the homeassistant.components.alarm_control_panel
module. You can then use the enum values to represent the state of the alarm. For example:
from homeassistant.components.alarm_control_panel import AlarmControlPanel, AlarmControlPanelState
class LocalTuyaAlarmControlPanel(LocalTuyaBaseEntity, AlarmControlPanel):
def __init__(self, device):
super().__init__(device)
self._alarm_state = AlarmControlPanelState.ALARM_ON
@property
def alarm_state(self):
return self._alarm_state
def set_alarm_state(self, state):
self._alarm_state = state
Q: What are the benefits of implementing the 'alarm_state' property?
A: Implementing the alarm_state
property provides several, including:
- Ensures compatibility with the latest versions of the
localtuya
custom integration - Allows for more accurate representation of the alarm state
- Enables more advanced features and functionality in Home Assistant
Q: How do I troubleshoot issues related to the 'alarm_state' property?
A: To troubleshoot issues related to the alarm_state
property, you can use the following steps:
- Check the Home Assistant logs for any error messages related to the
alarm_state
property. - Verify that the
alarm_state
property is correctly implemented in theLocalTuyaAlarmControlPanel
component. - Check the
AlarmControlPanelState
enum values to ensure that they are correctly used in the code.
In this Q&A article, we've addressed some common questions and concerns related to implementing the 'alarm_state'
property in the LocalTuyaAlarmControlPanel
