Can I define a card that does nothing more than specify (call) a service (script) and its parameters (data/service_data)?
I’d see it generically if there was a service-call card as:
type: service-call
# script that generically defines the buttons
service: script.firetv_button_def
service_data:
# child script that the button_def calls
- service_name: script.plex_to_livetv
# other elements that populate the button and the downstream command
- service_parameters:
icon_name: mdi:plex
button_name: LIVETV
command_name: PLAY
The plex_to_livetv script defines the entities that display in the front end (in this case buttons). Each button differs only in the name, icon, the button’s service name and service data (parameters).
I hate to replicate a bunch of definition code for each of a lot of buttons if I can call it as a script.
Possible? Maybe the entity card with the call-service feature? I don’t know how to use it as a service pass-through.
