This blueprint lets you apply a (optionally dynamic) light scene to a selection of lights. It’s the ‘blueprintification’ of this script. Next to the dynamic scenes, it was updated to allow light selection by label.
The full blueprint is posted here: GitHub - nilsreiter/home-assistant-scenes: Nice, Hue-inspired scenes for Home Assistant.
There is currently no easy way to add scenes, I’m thinking about that.
The GitHub repository has a bit more on how this is integrated in my setup.
Changelog
3.0 (Sep 22, 2024)
- Added default Hue scenes (Bright, Concentrate, Cool bright, Dimmed, Energize, Nightlight, Read, Relax, Rest).
- Scene selection dropdown now shows scene set (Cozy, Defaults, Dreamy, Futuristic, Lush, Luxurious, Party vibes, Peaceful, Pure, Refreshing, Serenity, Sunrise). When launching the script (e.g. as an action), users can use the simple name as before, or a combination of set and scene name (e.g.,
Cozy: Savanna sunset). - The script now includes pre-defined brightness settings. When starting, one now has three options: a) Define a brightness value, b) use the scene-defined value, and c) leave the brightness as it is.
- As part of the blueprint input settings, it is now possible to also set default values for the script. All script fields can be specified, and the script can then be run without any arguments (e.g., if you’re mostly using one scene, you can set it as default).
- Fixed a bug for non-dynamic scenes
2.5.1
- Fixed a bug in assigning first colors for colorloop.
2.5
- Added input
stop_when_lights_turn_offto allow running the script continuously. - Added scene “Colorloop”, which iterates over the entire color wheel. Colorloop uses hs color scheme, and only changes the hue value without touch the saturation.
- Re-added a scene consisting of random colors. Note that random colors are selected once when the script starts and then distributed over the lights.
- Added input
debugto generate debug messages in the log.
2.4
- It is now possible to also specify devices. If a device has multiple entities from the light domain, all will be added individually.
2.3
- Selecting the lights is now done via proper lists, and no longer relies on parsing json
- New scene: Malibu pink
- Description of the scene field is shorter
- Added a report entity field. This can be a
input_textentity and whenever a scene is set, the scene name is written into the entity.
2.2
- Transition time is now a blueprint field.
- Repeat delay now has a default value of two minutes.
- Fixed bug in duration format.
2.1
- The blueprint now contains all the Hue color scenes that are listed here.
2.0
- Made into a blueprint. Intended use case: Instantiate blueprint for each area (then they can run independently in parallel).
- Supports loop mode, a.k.a. dynamic scenes
- Can exclude lights by manufacturer
- Select lights by labels
