Groups behaviour of template sensors

Configuration
21

Sorry, Typo, the second line needs to use all_people object to filter the list.

- platform: template
  sensors:
    everyone_home:
      friendly_name: "Sensor that tells me if Everyone is home"
          value_template: >
            {% set all_people = states | selectattr('entity_id', 'in', state_attr('group.family', 'entity_id')) | list %}
            {% set home_people = all_people | selectattr('state', 'equalto', 'home') | list %}
            {{ all_people | length == home_people | length }}

Here’s my Test with lights:

{% set b_states = states | selectattr('entity_id', 'in', state_attr('group.basement', 'entity_id')) | list %}
{% set b_on = b_states | selectattr('state', 'equalto', 'on') | list %}
{{ b_states | length }} Basement lights
{{ b_on | length }} Basement lights are on
{{ b_states | length == b_on | length }}

wait a minute, this is to say All are home, not anyone…? in that case, the false is correct :wink:

I’d need it to check if, and if, who is home…

should just be using the filters that @dale3h used in the example you posted.

for name:

{{ home_people | map(attribute='name') | list | join(', ') }} 

{{ lights_on | map(attribute='name') | list | join(', ') }}

for entity_id:

{{ home_people | map(attribute='entity_id') | list | join(', ') }}

{{ lights_on | map(attribute='entity_id') | list | join(', ') }}

ok will check.
Would you know how to get that list to show from top to bottom in the frontend? right now it fills up the sensor line, obscuring the name of the sensor, since it populate that line going left…

only the first in the list. hmm, how to give that a dash?

btw, besides being a great online checker tool, this might be even more useful for an Offline warning tool:

{{ dict((states|selectattr('entity_id', 'in', state_attr('group.critical_hubs', 'entity_id'))|list)|groupby('state'))['offline']|map(attribute='name')|list|join(', ') }}

Simple, just add it before the code!

 - {{ lights_on | map(attribute='name') | list | join('\n - ') }}
