Faucet icon #42

Open Ghitafjorback opened 3 years ago

Ghitafjorback commented 3 years ago

Hi, I love this plug-in, thanks for creating and sharing it! Would it be possible to create a delay switch with a different group icon? I would like to have a Tile with the faucet icon. Use case: I have a water faucet that I would turn on for 10 seconds at a time (filling a water bowl for my dog). I already have it working with Eve Aqua, but I hate the fact that I cannot choose the faucet icon for the Eve Aqua. If I get a dummy faucet "switch", this could trigger the Eve Aqua start/stop. 🙌 Thank you in advance. image

If I'll do a faucet icon (which I have to admit is a pretty good idea to show the remaining time), you won't be able to add it into automations via Home app, because Home app don't support water valve automations. would you still want it with this limitation?

If I can do the automations in Eve or somewhere else this would definitely be useful still! 🤩

I'm gonna jump in and ask Is it possible to get the virtual switch in HomeKit to show a countdown of how long is left? If so, How can it be done? (I saw some picture of it on reddit with a virtual switch and a faucet icon (just like the one here) with a tiny timer! That would be such a neat feature to have!

What about appending the remaining time to the name?
