Hello all,
I have many automations and many scripts and in order to see if they all work, I nearly always notify myself. I get about 50 notifications per day (detected movement, no movement detected for 5 min, …). After a few months, I would like to filter notifications between two categories: debug and essential. Debug being the ones mentioned above and essential being notifications of use.
I have created two booleans: input_boolean.notify_debug and input_boolean.notify_essential, which I can turn off/on in the UI.
I have a script to simplify my notitications (notify_phone) which I can easily call from within my automations. There are a few parameters (title, message, sound) and I just added a new one (category).
Now for the script, I cannot seem to test the condition on the parameter ‘category’. I tried different things, but it does not work. Can anyone help me or point me in the right direction? It’s the condition part.
alias: "Stuur smartphone notificatie"
fields:
title:
example: "Home Assistant"
message:
example: "test message"
sound:
example: "something.wav"
category:
example: "essential or debug"
sequence:
- condition: or
conditions:
- condition: and
conditions:
- condition: template
value_template: >
"{{ category == 'debug' }}"
- condition: state
entity_id: input_boolean.notify_debug
state: "on"
- condition: and
conditions:
- condition: template
value_template: >
"{{ category == 'essential' }}"
- condition: state
entity_id: input_boolean.notify_essential
state: "on"
- service: notify.mobile_app_iphone
data_template:
title: "{{ title }} -- {{ category }}"
message: "{{ message }}"
data:
push:
sound: "{% if sound != '' %}Bloom.caf{% else %}{{ sound }}{% endif %}" #>
I have also tried:
{{ category }} == ‘debug’
but also no success
