Add support for Brightness Sensor ( Value ) #302

Closed MarkusB79 closed 1 month ago

MarkusB79 commented 1 year ago

Hi !!

Is it possible to add a feature, that the entity-controller only triggers when the brightness level is under a certain value (like the Time Constraints)

The entity-controller can than also be used for indoor motion lightning. Time Constraints wouldn't always work indoor (like if the shades would be closed)

A sensor or a sensor-group would give the actual value ... a parameter would have the value ( like 50 ). Under this value the controller would give green light and activate the motion light. Like Time Constraints between starting end ending time.

Thanks for your help if this would be possible !!

Use a separate template sensor and use that as your override.
