Hi everyone, How can I create a template sensor by taking the following 2 criteria into account. I will know the end times how long the irrigation will run. I have a scheduler card where watering starts at 4:30 am and a sensor with the total watering time. So the watering ends at 6:30 a.m. I wa…

It’s already output in iso format, which is yyyy-mm-dd. If you want it output in a different format than that, you can use .strftime {% set t = state_attr('switch.schedule_0ce9ef', 'next_trigger') | as_datetime %} {% set h, m = states('sensor.zone_gesamt_time_total') | regex_findall('^(?:(?P<h>[0-…

{% set some_datetime = now() %} {{ some_datetime + timedelta(minutes=42) }}

Can use the attributes of scheduler? For example timeslots or next_trigger? If yes how? [image]

Nothing yet. Hence my question…

Hi, so far i figured that out. But the value is not updated. {{ state_attr('switch.schedule_0ce9ef', 'next_trigger') | as_datetime + timedelta(minutes = states('sensor.zone_gesamt_time_total')|int(0)) }} [image] [image]

Ok good, now we can try to get somewhere. What is the output of this? {{ state_attr('switch.schedule_0ce9ef', 'next_trigger') | as_datetime }} {{ states('sensor.zone_gesamt_time_total') }} [image] Kabala: But the value is not updated. Do you mean the output as you see it in the dev tools d…

Are you expecting it to update the next_trigger? If yes, that’s not how templates work. They do not set values.

[image] parautenbach: Do you mean the output as you see it in the dev tools don’t have the timedelta applied? Yes, that’s what I mean. Watering begins at 4:30 a.m. At 6:40 a.m. the watering is finished. I need this value (6:40 a.m.) So 4:30 am + 2.10 hours = 6:40 am

[image] Kabala: states('sensor.zone_gesamt_time_total')|int(0) Then you’re just getting the default back from this entity. What’s that entities state?

Add runtime to a given time?
