Day trigger

Configuration

Hi everybody,

I looked for, but I didn’t found…

I would create an automation every 9th day of each month…
How could I write this trigger ?

Thank you !!

Hey,

I am pretty new to this and haven’t tested myself but I think you could use the Google Calendar Component https://home-assistant.io/components/calendar.google/ and enable the sensor. Then setup a recurring calendar entry and setup your automation to use the calendar sensor. Sorry I am not sure how it will all fit together but from what I read it should work.

Regards,

Paulio

You can use something like this as a starting point:

trigger:
  platform: template
  value_template: "{% if now().strftime("%d") == '9' %}True{% endif%}"

My aim was to have a persistent notification every day I choose in advance !

I put my code:

- alias: "Payer le loyer"
  initial_state: on
  trigger:
    - platform: template
      value_template: '{{ now().strftime("%d") == "2" }}'
  action:
    - service: persistent_notification.create
      data_template:
        message: " "
        title: "Payer le loyer !!"

We could imagine to involve it with a selection of day and a reminder option (daily, monthly, etc…) in GUI but I’ll do that later !
