Proposal

Add action to duplicate schedul.

Additional info

Many times I do simillar schedulers and I must do it from beginning. This will help expecially with very expanded one.

I was just about to request this.

Use-case: I'm setting up the scheduler for a heating system. I have several rooms to control. Each room needs a schedule for each day of the week, as the trigger times are different for each day, in each room; I need approx 40 schedules.

If the editor allowed editing in yaml it would be easier to copy/paste, but I guess there's other background reasons why there's no 'edit in yaml' option for this card.

Suggestion: Add a 'duplicate' or 'copy' button next to 'save', that when clicked opened up the new copy?

My usecase is a little bit different - I have different rooms with same time schedule (based on my electric tariff), but temperatures should be a tad different, so in bathroom I will always keep it a bit warmer. I would like to duplicate schedule, and just modify the temperatures in those rooms, as opposed to creating the time slots from the start

Would love to have this. Currently looking to modify a schedule from daily to separate schedules for weekdays and weekends, would be nice to make a quick copy and just change days and parameters real quick.

@nielsfaber Is it possible to disable the automatic 'stale -> close issue' for feature requests?

[nielsfaber]

@jj-uk I agree this feature could be useful, but I don't have the time to work on this. So if no one else takes the initiative to implement the feature there I don't see the point of keeping it open forever, so i think stale issues are unavoidable.

Do you have an explanation of setting up the dev environment? I might try to add this feature.

I still think this is a worth while addition- willing to give it a try if you can explain how to set up a dev environment on windows.

Having myself a lot of schedules to set up, I agree it would be a very valuable feature.
