Hi everyone.
I am pretty new to HA and all the yaml stuff is pretty confusing for me.
I used to have a tuya garage door opener with integrated reed switch, everything worked fine all the opening and closing, also door status. But the device regularly disconnected.
So i “updated” to Shelly plus uni. But now i cant get the sensor info to work with the template.
Buttons work, and shelly input sensor, that has the reed switch, also works in the shelly integration. But the template doesnt use that information.
What am i doing wrong here? heres my configuration.yaml code
cover:
- platform: template
covers:
garage_door:
device_class: garage
friendly_name: "Garage Door"
value_template: "{{ is_state('binary_sensor.garage_door', 'on') }}"
open_cover:
service: switch.turn_on
entity_id: switch.garage_door
close_cover:
service: switch.turn_on
entity_id: switch.garage_door
stop_cover:
service: switch.turn_on
entity_id: switch.garage_door
i have changed the entity and sensor names according to what i have them in the shelly integration.
show as: opening
binary_sensor.garage_door
Show as: switch
switch.garage_door
the switch i have changed to show as : cover, so it creates a new entity: cover.garage_door_button
