Israeli Red Alert Service for Home Assistant (AppDaemon)
Not Official Pikud Ha-Oref
This script creates a suite of binary sensors that issue warnings for all hazards signaled by PIKUD HA-OREF. These hazards encompass red alerts for missile and rocket fire, breaches by unauthorized aircraft, seismic activity, tsunami warnings, terrorist incursions, chemical spill emergencies, non-conventional warfare, among other dangers. Upon receiving an alert, the specific type of threat is indicated at the start of the message (for instance, ירי רקטות וטילים
for rocket and missile fire).
The script offers additional functionalities, such as archiving all alert details in a historical text and CSV files and facilitating the creation of additional sub-sensors derived from the primary sensor.
This script introduces four new entities in Home Assistant:
[!NOTE]
You can customize the sensor name to your liking, with red_alert
set as the default.

- Start the add-on
- In file editor open
/addon_configs/a0d7b954_appdaemon/appdaemon.yaml
and make the changes under appdeamon section as described:
[!TIP]
If you’re using the File Editor add-on, it’s set up by default to only allow file access to the main Home Assistant directory. However, the AppDaemon add-on files are located in the root directory. To access these files, follow these steps:
- Go to
Settings
> Add-ons
> File Editor
> Configuration
- Toggle off the
Enforce Basepath
option.
-
In the File Editor, click on the arrow next to the directory name (which will be ‘homeassistant’). This should give you access to the root directory where the AppDaemon add-on files are located.

You have two choices to download the script: manually or via HACS. Installing from HACS ensures that if any new version of the script becomes available, you’ll receive a notification in Home Assistant. Manual download won’t provide you with future automatic updates. Pick the method that suits you best.
### Manual Download
1. Download the Python file from [This Link](https://github.com/idodov/RedAlert/blob/main/apps/red_alerts_israel/red_alerts_israel.py).
2. Place the downloaded file inside the `/addon_configs/a0d7b954_appdaemon/apps` directory and proceed to the **final step**
### HACS Download
1. In Home Assistant: Navigate to `HACS` > `Automation`
- If this option is not available, go to
Settings
> Integrations
> HACS
> Configure
and enable AppDaemon apps discovery & tracking
. After enabling, return to the main HACS screen and select Automation
- Navigate to the
Custom Repositories
page and add the following repository as Appdaemon
: https://github.com/idodov/RedAlert/
- Return to the
HACS Automation
screen, search for Red Alerts Israel
, click on Download
and proceed to the final step
Final Step
In the appdaemon/apps/apps.yaml
file, add the following code.
[!IMPORTANT]
Make sure to replace the city_names
values as PIKUD HA-OREF defines them. For example, don’t write תל אביב
, instead write: תל אביב - דרום העיר

Home Assistant initializes four distinct entities:
binary_sensor.red_alert
: This is the main entity that becomes active during a Red Alert in Israel and reverts to inactive otherwise. It encompasses a range of attributes like category, ID, title, data, description, active alert count, and emojis.
binary_sensor.red_alert_city
: This entity retains PIKUD-HA-OREF data and is activated solely if the alert includes the specified city.
input_text.red_alert
: Intended for logging alert history in the logbook. Given Home Assistant’s 255-character limit for text entities, extensive events may lead to data being cut off or omitted. Therefore, it’s inadvisable to rely on this entity for automation triggers or to generate sub-sensors.
input_boolean.red_alert_test
: Flipping this switch generates fictitious data (for selected cities) that activates the sensor for a set duration as per the timer
configuration.

# Usage *Red Alert* for Home Assistant
## History File
The script stores the sensor data in a text file named `red_alert_history.txt` and `red_alert_history.csv`, both located in the `\\homeassistant\config\www` directory. Each time an alert (including test alerts) is triggered, the files gets updated. The dedicated CSV file can be opened in any spreadsheet application, such as Excel or Google Sheets.
You can directly access these files from your browser using the provided URL: [ http://homeassistant.local:8123/local/red_alert_history.txt](http://homeassistant.local:8123/local/red_alert_history.txt).

## Lovelace Card Example
Displays whether there is an alert, the number of active alerts, and their respective locations.

## Automation Examples
You have the flexibility to generate various automated actions triggered by the binary sensor or its subsidiary sensors. As an example, one potential application is to dispatch alert messages to a LED matrix screen (in pic: forwarding all alerts to the Ulanzi Smart Clock, which is based on ESPHome32 and features a screen).
![20231013_210149](https://github.com/idodov/RedAlert/assets/19820046/0f88c82c-c87a-4933-aec7-8db425f6515f)
### Send a notification to the phone (Home Assistant app) when there is an alert in Israel (all cities)
*(Change ```#your phone#``` to your entity name)*
```yaml
alias: Notify attack
description: "Real-time Attack Notification"
trigger:
- platform: state
entity_id:
- binary_sensor.red_alert
from: "off"
to: "on"
condition: []
action:
- service: notify.mobile_app_#your phone#
data:
message: "{{ state_attr('binary_sensor.red_alert', 'data') }}"
title: "{{ state_attr('binary_sensor.red_alert', 'title') }} {{ state_attr('binary_sensor.red_alert', 'areas') }}"
mode: single
```
### Change the light color when there is an active alert in your city
As another illustration, you can configure your RGB lights to change colors repeatedly while the alert is active.
![20231013_221552](https://github.com/idodov/RedAlert/assets/19820046/6e60d5ca-12a9-4fd2-9b10-bcb19bf38a6d)
*(Change ```light.#light-1#``` to your entity name)*
```yaml
alias: Alert in city
description: "When an alert occurs in your define city, the lights will cyclically change to red and blue for a duration of 30 seconds, after which they will revert to their previous states"

```
### Get notification When it's safe
The "desc" attribute provides information on the duration in minutes for staying inside the safe room. This automation will generate a timer based on the data from this attribute.
Before implementing this automation, it's essential to create a TIMER helper.
1. Create a new **TIMER helper**. You can generate a new timer entity within the user interface under **'Settings' > 'Devices and Services' > 'Helpers' > 'Create Helper' > 'Timer'**
2. Name it "**Red Alert**".
3. Create automation with your desire trigger,
**for example:** *(change ```#your phone#``` to your entity name)*
```yaml
Alias: Safe to go out
description: "Notify on phone that it's safe to go outside"
mode: single
trigger:
- platform: template
value_template: >-
{{ "תל אביב - מרכז העיר" in state_attr('binary_sensor.red_alert',
'data').split(', ') }}
condition: []
action:
- service: timer.start
data:
duration: >-
{{ state_attr('binary_sensor.red_alert_city', 'duration') }}
target:
entity_id: timer.red_alert
- service: notify.mobile_app_#your phone#
data:
title: ההתרעה הוסרה
message: אפשר לחזור לשגרה
```
## Creating Sub Sensors
While you need to specify the cities in which the secondary binary sensor will be activated, you also have the flexibility to define additional sub-sensors based on the main sensor. Here are a few examples of how you can do this.
> [!NOTE]
> To create a sensor that activates only when an attack occurs in a specific city that has similar character patterns in other city names, you should use the following approach. For example, if you want to create a sensor that activates when **only** "יבנה" and **not** "גן יבנה" is attacked, you can use the following code syntax.
> If you want to trigger a specific area, use the SPLIT function and make sure to type the city name and area **exactly** as they appear in https://www.oref.org.il/12481-he/Pakar.aspx
> ```
> {{ "תל אביב - מרכז העיר" in state_attr('binary_sensor.red_alert', 'data').split(', ') }}
> ```
#### Yavne city and not Gan-Yavne city
```
{{ "יבנה" in state_attr('binary_sensor.red_alert', 'data').split(', ') }}
```
#### Multiple cities or city areas
```
{{ "אירוס" in state_attr('binary_sensor.red_alert', 'data').split(', ')
or "בית חנן" in state_attr('binary_sensor.red_alert', 'data').split(', ')
or "גן שורק" in state_attr('binary_sensor.red_alert', 'data').split(', ') }}
```
### Cities With Multiple Zones:
In cities with multiple zones, relying solely on the SPLIT function won't be effective if you've only defined the city name. If you need a sensor that triggers for all zones within the 11 cities divided into multiple alert zones, it's advisable to utilize the SEARCH_REGEX function instead of splitting the data.
```
{{ state_attr('binary_sensor.red_alert', 'data') | regex_search("תל אביב") }}
```
### Metropolitan Areas
Israel is segmented into 30 metropolitan areas, allowing you to determine the general status of nearby towns without the need to specify each one individually. To achieve this, you can utilize the "areas" attribute. Here's the list of the 30 metropolitan areas in Israel, presented in alphabetical order:
אילת, בקעה, בקעת בית שאן, גוש דן, גליל עליון, גליל תחתון, דרום הגולן, דרום הנגב, הכרמל, המפרץ, העמקים, השפלה, ואדי ערה, יהודה, ים המלח, ירושלים, ירקון, לכיש, מנשה, מערב הנגב, מערב לכיש, מרכז הגליל, מרכז הנגב, עוטף עזה,
ערבה, צפון הגולן, קו העימות, שומרון, שפלת יהודה ושרון
```
{{ "גוש דן" in state_attr('binary_sensor.red_alert', 'areas').split(', ') }}
```
### Red Alert Trigger for Particular Type of Alert:
The **'cat'** attribute defines the alert type, with a range from 1 to 13. You have the option to set up a binary sensor for a particular type of alert with or without any city or area of your choice.
| Cat (number) | Type of Alert |
| ---- | --- |
| 1 | Missle Attack |
| 6 | Unauthorized Aircraft Penetration |
| 13 | Infiltration of Terrorists |
**Trigger for Automation**
```
{{ state_attr('binary_sensor.red_alert', 'cat') == '6' }}
```
***Sample trigger alert for unauthorized aircraft penetration in Nahal-Oz***
```yaml
{{ state_attr('binary_sensor.red_alert', 'cat') == '6'
and "נחל עוז" in state_attr('binary_sensor.red_alert', 'data').split(', ') }}
```
