With the removal of the Garbage Collection custom integration, I’ve been having a hard time figuring out how to mirror what I was doing with it. I’ve seen a number of posts about things similar but nothing that seems to match what I want to do.
With the previous integration I had entities for the different garbage collection events (ie. papers, bottles, garbage) which are now local calendar events. I would use those entities to display when the next occurrence was using Mushroom chips. For example, I had a papers chip that displayed the date of the next pickup, or ‘Tomorrow’ or ‘Today’.
Thanks for pointing that out, didn’t know it existed. Did you set yours up with an ICS file by any chance? Having trouble getting the sensors set up correctly.
I’m getting some data in the calendar.ics entity that’s being created by the integration but I think the issue is that I’m not getting the summary attribute that seems to be needed for the sensors to pick them up.
In the 2. part of my last post in the -sensor section, the name of the sensor can be any word, you like and the -types must be identical to the alias from above.
Thank you, your ICS looks very much different to mine. The best way is to ask @mampfes to add support for your town. Or you take a look on github, how it is handeled for other cities in US: github. I guess your district (TZID=America/New_York:…) has to be selected and some more.
I decided to just set up static sources for now. One last question, do you know how I can set up the value_template to show Today, Tomorrow, or MM/DD/YYYY of the next pickup? I tried this but it didn’t seem to work: '{% if value.daysTo == 0 %}Today{% elif value.daysTo == 1 %}Tomorrow{% else %}{{value.date.strftime("%m.%d.%Y")}}{% endif %}'
