This is the script: I would have liked to be able to automatically find the automation entity_id within the script, but I was unable to get consistent results. This action allows you to repeat a sequence of other actions. I wish HA would provide a way for temporary variables inside an automation that would persist across the actions. Heres one example of the many variants Ive tried: Ideally Id like to only notify if the camera is offline (as determined by a failure to update its snapshot) - Im guessing that would be a condition: but I havent had any luck setting variables within the condition either. There are many different conditions which are documented at the conditions page. Heres what I suggest for the automation. - service: script.sonos_say example: AAAHHH sequence: - data: message: Warning! I dont think the configuration reloads that frequently though or would even see the change. Inherites template variables from event or state template based on the type of trigger selected for the device. Some of the caveats of running actions in parallel: It is possible to halt a script sequence at any point. on each other and order doesnt matter. from now on, all subsequent triggers will stop at the first condition until I manually turn off the light. # Run command that for some reason doesn't always work, # The `else` is fully optional and can be omitted, is_state('binary_sensor.all_clear', 'on') }}, is_state('binary_sensor.all_clear', 'off') }}, # IF another entity not related to the previous, is ON. Script with template that uses a entity as variable. the actions are started at the same time. Within the script, you must convert them from string to the desired type. tttt August 21, 2019, 5:19am #5 Thank you again for your help! light.) Web5 MUST Have Scripts in Home Assistant Written by Gio in Smart Home Scripts are a collection of actions that are very similar to those actions in automations. This action evaluates the template, and if true, the script will continue. It looks like the problem isn't in the script, but in the automation. You could be moving around, not really leaving the room. The variable this is the state object of the automation at the moment of triggering the actions. This action supports nesting, however, if you find yourself using nested if-then Use-case: If the light is on (or after this choose block finishes if it was off) then it will always proceed to the next part (storing the lights brightness and waiting until it is turned off, its brightness changes or the timeout expires). Then when you turn it back on nothing is watching it so it just stays on. An example value. The first conditions/sequence pair is like the if/then, and can be used just by itself. The State object. Because, as I mentioned, I suspect there are other problems and Im currently trying to reproduce your scripts on my system to identify them. Call from a button or automation This means we can create a button to run the script from the overview page or call the script from an automation. If Im wrong about that, then we will have to subtract 1 from repeat.index when referencing the file list. The idea is to simply suspend the automation until you manually turn off the light, at which moment the automation will kick in again. Yes there is, different lights are controlled by different sensors. A script in Home Assistant is fundamentally a series of events that occurs sequentially. - variables: movie: {% set movies = command.split (" on ") [0].split ("play ") [1] %} doesnt work - variables: movie: { { command.split (" on ") [0].split ("play ") [1] }} doesnt work. Python would be easier for me but wasn't aware of the Appdaemon piece. Lets say command=play die hard on living room tv. script: # Do some things at the same time as the first script Start a new run after first stopping previous run. Each automation use its set mode and will instantiate its own script object. Scripts are separate things from automations and the run mode of the automation wont affect the run mode of that script. In pyscript, you can create persistent variables. Yes, I just got the same result in my tests which means my assumption was incorrect. type ( Required, string): The C++ type of the global variable, for example bool (for true / false ), int (for integers), float (for decimal numbers), int [50] for an array of 50 integers, etc. I feel like it should work one of the ways Ive tried but it simply doesnt. The template is re-evaluated whenever an entity ID that it references changes state. Since it's Python, you can use any variables Python can. See Available-Trigger-Data. 2018-07-08 22:24:42 ERROR (MainThread) [homeassistant.core] Invalid service data for input_datetime.set_datetime: Invalid time specified: timestamp.variable.hour_calc for dictionary value @ data[time]. reacting on the events the button sends). A description of this of this script parameter. The sequence of actions is specified using the Home Assistant Script Syntax. This is my last try: And this is the error message from the log: When it is used inside a choose action, only the actions within that choose will stop. data: How do people know about these secret script variables/inputs? github.com and then there are the Hass variables the same thing its a nightmare. It doesnt pupulate the attribute part. Since I banged around for far too long on this, I thought Id share my final code. Home Assistant. I have a pyscript that counts lights that are on,off, unavailable. You would have to create a helper (input_number or input_text), then store the value in there before you switch the light (using input_text.set_value), then retrieve it after. I tried to create an automation: play music in the morning, music files was store in /local/morning. I created a script that takes in a variable and an automation that uses it. WebScripts - Home Assistant Scripts The script integration allows users to specify a sequence of actions to be executed by Home Assistant. A brightness value of 0 turns off the light, any value greater than 0 will turn on the light. Inside the if sequence the variables action will only alter the people variable for that sequence. trigger: Indentation is wrong and yiu dont need the set command. entity_id: remote.harmony_remote actions in the else part, you may want to consider using I am using the custom compenent varaiables When the script is executed within an automation the trigger variable is available. Is that what you want or did you want it to be set to essentially now()? Variables can be set manually using the var.set service or they can be set using templates or SQL queries which will be run automatically whenever a specified event fires. I personally like how that would keep the script focused on the light entity though and allow you to keep the mapping between lights and their controlling automations in an external file (customize.yaml in this case). These are run when you turn the script on. The result is saved in persistent fields. environment: dict: A dictionary of environment variables to run the add-on with. So for lights that dont have brightness I dont specify that parameter to the script, so it will default to 100. Since it's Python, you can use any variables Python can. It uses a streamlined template to convert the Folder Sensors file_list attribute to a comma-delimited string. When I run the automation, nothing happens. I didnt realize I couldnt mark multiple. Defaults to ro, which you can change by adding :rw to the end of the name. I see things like this in scripts often, for example in the script below there is the who variable. But, nevertheless, if you do want to call the remote.send_command service from within a script, then it looks like what youre trying to do is to figure out how to send the device_id to the script and use it from within the script. The first variant allows you to define variables that will be set when the trigger fires. You can set it to true if youd like to continue the action The example above simply calls a script with two variables of the authors choosing. It doesnt really exist outside the script, but when calling the script I need to pass something for that argument for it to do anything. data_template: WebPyscript: Python Scripting for Home Assistant. Researching now. script traces. This action allows you to fire an event. instllt Error loading /home/homeassistant/.homeassistant/configuration.yaml: mapping values are not allowed here I think this topic is outdated. I have a pyscript that counts lights that are on,off, unavailable. Am I correct in understanding that by enumerating echo there, you have essentially created an input argument (as I call it, not sure if my terminology is right) with the name echo? The following describes trigger data associated with all platforms. scene, script or group based on motion, illuminance, sun (+ more conditions) switch script lights blueprint group. - service: variable.set_variable - service: script.fastforward: Yes, thats intended. Theres no universal HA argument. By first confirming it exists, it can reliably refer to its value. The second time through it will skip the choose (since the light is already on) and just begin waiting. Therefore the sequence will always run at least once. Using the stop action. Maybe try: Is there a way to only send a notification if the camera is offline? Or additional pairs can be added, each of which is like an elif/then. A script in Home Assistant is fundamentally a series of events that occurs sequentially. it also uses split to convert file to a list then references a list item using repeat.index. (The first trigger idx is. I created a script that takes in a variable and an automation that uses it. By default, all sequences of actions in Home Assistant run sequentially. WebPyscript: Python Scripting for Home Assistant. That seems like a good thing since it means it turns the light off for you when you walk away, right? environment: dict: A dictionary of environment variables to run the add-on with.
