@petro Thanks for the quick reply. Where do I find the gradient generator in the UI? I had a look around and did not find it.
There is no such tool. It’ll be 100% custom.
This is a gradient slider that I use with the custom:slider-entity-row.
- type: custom:slider-entity-row
entity: input_number.quick_strip_hue
full_row: true
hide_state: true
style:
.: |
ha-slider {
background: linear-gradient(to right, red 0%, #ff0 17%, lime 33%, cyan 50%, blue 66%, #f0f 83%, red 100%);
border-radius: 10px;
}
Keep in mind that this uses the custom card slider-entity-row and the custom card card-mod.
I also have automations that calculate the color value based on the sliders position. You’ll have to derive the equations by hand like zermo did.
Here is the finished product - still using my “Weather Temp Light” in my home office. It uses a TP-Link smart bulb.
sorry to dig up an old thread, I’m trying to control some WiZ rgb led bulbs by freezer temperature using temp sensors
this is my automations code…

it worked earlier, but I changed something and now it doesn’t work… and I can’t figure out what I changed
I’m watching the temperature reported by the sensor change, so that should trigger it? (it’s only changing 0.1’C at time)
any ideas anyone?
Unfortunately I could not find the documentation of the device trigger explaining the various confguration options here. My guess would be that the above and below options here work similar to the state change trigger, where the trigger fires exactly once when the temperature moves into this range.
So, I would just remove these two options (or migrate them into a condition) and I would expect the trigger to fire each time the temperature changes.
above: -100, below: 100 was left over from when I made an automation with the ui
without it I get error…
2022-08-17 00:32:23.653 ERROR (MainThread) [homeassistant.components.automation.new_automation_2] New Automation: Error executing script. Invalid data for call_service at pos 1: None for dictionary value @ data['rgb_color']
I’m a bit lost with how to fix it, I’ve tried a bunch of different things (mostly copy/past other peoples code) but nothing seams to fix it
Interestingly, I just tried to reproduce this, and when I try to define a device trigger without above and below I get an error message saying that it “must contain at least one of below, above.”
Anyway, there are a few things I’d change in the action: data_template can be replaced with data; the target entity_id is normally defined outside data; and brightness_pct must be the same indentation as rgb_color.
Lastly, you will need to finet-tune the if statements, because the first match will set the colour, so for example if the temperature sensor reads 8ºC the second line (>= -20) will already match because 8 is indeed greater than -20. Or, are your comparisons maybe just the wrong way round?

and it looks like it’s working great so far, set the bulb to yellow… next time the temp probe updated it changed to red
in the end I’ll have 10 temp probes and 10 led bulbs… is there a better way to do this thatn just copy past the code 10 times?

If there is a simple 1:1 relationship between temperature sensor and light, you could try working with trigger id:
trigger:
- platform: state
entity_id: sensor.temp1
id: "light1"
- platform: state
entity_id: sensor.temp2
id: "light2"
...
And then make the action more generic and make use of the available trigger data:
action:
service: light.turn_on
target:
entity_id: "light.{trigger.id}"
data:
rgb_color: >
{% if trigger.to_state.state | int <= -25 %} [0, 0, 255]

{% elif trigger.to_state.state | int <= -5 %} [204, 204, 255]
{% elif trigger.to_state.state | int <= -0 %} [255, 102, 78]

thankyou, I’ll try that over the weekend
it’ll make updating/changing how it works much easier 
Hello, I am currently starting out on Home Assistant.
I would like to integrate the outdoor temperature feature with my lights, but I can’t seem to do it.
Can someone explain me how to integrate it?
Thanks in advance.
would you know if this code would control a wled controller as I would like to do the same with my kettle water temperture and a section of my kitchens wled strip?
You will want edit your automations.yaml file - using this as a reference. This is exactly what I use, but you would need to replace the entity names with yours:

hi I have tried your code and get the error " Message malformed: extra keys not allowed @ data[‘0’] " any ideas what might be causing it?
Yaml is very sensitive to indentations and needing spaces vs tabs. I would check to ensure the cut/paste doesn’t have any tabs for the indentation and is using spaces. I find that using Notepad++ is great for doing that. Someone else might have a better suggestion on it, but that is the only thing I can think of that could get altered when doing a cut and paste.
yes I used notpad++ to change the entities, I have even just pasted you code into my automation wiithouit changing anything, still the same. The only thing that looks out of place to me (but i am not a coder so really have no idea) is at the end of each section in your example the ’ has big gaps from the end of the text?
I’m not sure if this will help, but I clipped that section out of my automations.yaml and put it on my webserver. You can download it from there or cut/paste.

Hope you don’t mind…
I refactored your code to this:
- alias: map_temperature_to_light_output
trigger:
platform: state
entity_id: sensor.outdoor_temperature
action:
- service: light.turn_on
target:
entity_id: light.weather_light

Almost the same, my rework doesn’t do Minus Zero values. ATM
Stumbled across this post and had to try it. I ran into the same “message malformed” issue and spent way too long trying to resolve it. Here’s what I did:
- Adjusted the sensor and entity names using Notepad++
- Copied all of the YAML into ( YAMLlint - The YAML Validator) and ensured it was valid.
- Pasted the code into automations.yaml at the end (I have Visual Code Studio connected to my HA, but you can also do this through File Editor).
- Ran a Configuration Check via Developer Tools - all YAML valid
- Reloaded all YAML configs via Developer Tools
- Tested by setting the state of the sensor using Developer tools > States. Success!
My problem seemed to be using the automation editor in HA - even when using Edit in YAML. Hope this helps someone…spent too many hours on a cold snowy day figuring this out (as a HA YAML noob!).
