Can I use py-brickshema to make a Brick model or would I only be using py-brickshema in validating an existing Brick model? Apologize for my ignorance I have a lot to learn...
I am working with configuration files like this below in YAML format that represent a BACnet devices inside a building:
Which I can modify at will. I am taking a stab in the dark at what it would look like in Brick...? Assuming people starting out are just manually adding the meta data into there processes?..
Where I then I can read it into Python with a script something like this:
import yaml
def read_bacnet_config(file_path):
with open(file_path, 'r') as file:
config = yaml.safe_load(file)
return config
def print_device_attributes(device_config):
for device in device_config['devices']:
print(f"Device Name: {device['device_name']}")
print(f"Device Identifier: {device['device_identifier']}")
print(f"Device Address: {device['address']}")
print("Points:")
for point in device['points']:
print(f" - Object Name: {point['object_name']}")
print(f" Object Identifier: {point['object_identifier']}")
if 'brick_class' in point:
print(f" Brick Class: {point['brick_class']}")
if 'brick_function' in point:
print(f" Brick Function: {point['brick_function']}")
if 'brick_location' in point:
print(f" Brick Location: {point['brick_location']}")
# Example usage
config_file_path = '201201_brick.yml'
config = read_bacnet_config(config_file_path)
print_device_attributes(config)
I am still trying to figure out how to properly implement a Brick model manually on some BAS devices inside a building through config files like this and where py-brickschema would fit into the process. Any tips greatly appreciated.
For this building there would also be similar config files for VAV boxes, AHU, and a chiller.
