Hello ! Finally a scheduller ...! Do you plan to continue developing it and adding functions? For example workday to manage holidays? Or the possibility of activating or deactivating ranges from HA? Or the possibility of using in Climate setpoints of different temperatures depending on the day and time?

These are just a few ideas but it would be great if this sort of thing were possible!

Thank you :-)

Hi, I'm still working on scheduler and i'd like to add some comments on your ideas: 1) It is not very clear the request on workday but i think you are asking the possibility to enable or disable some group based on workday at moment you can use an automation into HA triggered by workday sensor + send command using services hassio.addon_stdin . 2) You can disable from HA entire group by hassio.addon_stdin services. 3) On climate entity you con set a temperature by adding ":T" if you need to set in a day different value you can made more schedule on the same entity with different temperatures. (only at last setting put the off time if you need)

I'll hope these workaround at moment can handle you specify request.

Thanks.

Hi, The "workday:" sensor is for public holidays. It would therefore be necessary in addition to the 7 days of the week a marked holiday ... But also the possibility of multiple schedules in the same entry, of the kind:

These are just ideas and I'm willing to help you improve with some ideas if you want to continue, the need for a good scheduler is huge!

how about having a date (or range of date for include and exclude) like excluding certain dates or having the schedule run only on certain dates

michelebossa commented 4 years ago

At moment you can use by an automation the service hassio.addon_stdin to disable or enable the schedule in your days. Thanks

Hello, As others, thanks a lot for this nice job. I was looking for a "simple" (simple to use; not simple to implement) scheduler, and yours sounds very nice. I am using it to pilot heating system which commands are seen as lights by HA (do not ask me why, but for instance, it helps), on which you can adjust "Brightness". So I am using the ":Bxx" option, which works like a charm. Nethertheless, as mycanaletto for Climate, I would have similar need : set a "on" time with a given value (B in my case, instead of T for mycanaletto), and instead of a complete "off", a second time wih a new "B" value. If I am understanding correctly, nothing here new compared to mycanaletto's suggestion, just to emphasis this kind of use cases. I will use the workaround, with multiple schedules, as you suggest. Again, thanks for the work, I am pretty sure I still have not seen all possibilities it offers !

Hello,

is it possible to add multiple "execution" times per one day? I want to setup my radiator valves to different temperatures during one day.

michelebossa commented 4 years ago

Hi slamkalukas, You can made more schedules with same entity and different time for days.

Thanks

Suggestion: add functionality to add a random interval, for example: 'sunset+10M+R10M', which would mean 'switch at a random time between 10 to 20 minutes after sunset'. This would make the schedule unpredictable and therefore a good 'there's someone home' simulator.
