Have you tried searching the community forum for how to create an alarm clock?
https://community.home-assistant.io/search?q=alarm%20clock
There are many existing solutions and perhaps one of them suits your requirements.
Oh, i searched, read a lot of them, but it’s for older Hass (spacing and Dash very unstable). Cant work for me 
YAML formatting rules haven’t changed.
Post the code you tried and the error messages and we can help you fix it.

oh, i can fix it, add sensor.time to fix it, unbelive that, i think it included in Hass System
Try below code, and add sensor to your config (if spliting files, add this to sensors.yaml)
sensor:
- platform: time_date
display_options:
- 'time'
- 'date'
- 'date_time'
- 'date_time_utc'
- 'date_time_iso'
- 'time_date'
- 'time_utc'
- 'beat'
I misread your post; I didn’t notice that you had copy-pasted it from another thread. The question at the bottom of the post isn’t your question, it’s someone else’s question. My mistake.

If you’re interested, I streamlined the example you provided. This version is more compact than the original.
1. Input_Booleans and Input_Numbers
My version uses the same input_booleans and input_numbers as in the original example:
Click to reveal details
#configuration.yaml
input_boolean:
wakestatus_1:
name: Alarm 1
icon: mdi:alarm
wakeweekday_sun_1:
name: Sunday
icon: mdi:calendar
wakeweekday_mon_1:
name: Monday
icon: mdi:calendar
wakeweekday_tue_1:
name: Tuesday
icon: mdi:calendar
wakeweekday_wed_1:
name: Wednesday
icon: mdi:calendar
wakeweekday_thu_1:
name: Thursday
icon: mdi:calendar
wakeweekday_fri_1:
name: Friday
icon: mdi:calendar
wakeweekday_sat_1:
name: Saturday
icon: mdi:calendar
input_number:
wakehour_1:
name: Hour
min: 00
max: 23
step: 1
icon: mdi:alarm
wakeminutes_1:
name: Minutes
min: 00
max: 59
step: 1
2. Sensors
It uses far fewer sensors:
#sensor:
- platform: template
sensors:
wake_time_1:
friendly_name: 'Wake Time 1'
value_template: "{{'{:02d}:{:02d}'.format(states('input_number.wakehour_1') | int, states('input_number.wakeminutes_1') | int) }}"
- platform: time_date
display_options:
- 'time'
3. Automation
Its automation is substantially more compact:
#automation:
- id: 'alarm_clock_123'
alias: Wake 1
trigger:
platform: template
value_template: "{{ states('sensor.time') == states('sensor.wake_time_1') }}"
condition:
condition: template
value_template: >
{% set today = 'input_boolean.wakeweekday_' ~ now().strftime("%a") | lower ~ '_1' %}
{{ is_state('input_boolean.wakestatus_1', 'on') and is_state(today, 'on') }}
action:
service: switch.turn_on
entity_id: switch.office_1
I found no need for the original example’s group, or some of its sensors, so they are not included here.
4. Lovelace UI
Finally, I used a combination of cards to create the following UI:

I think i need to learn writing in Scripts.Yaml, i want to set loop action because the xiaomi gateway only ring 1 times (about 3 seconds not enough for me to wakeup), i need to more and more loop to more and more sound to get me out of my bed.
You can always repete the action in the automation.
Are you using GUI or code to make your automations?
Im using code to do action in automation
My code based on @123,
My code is
alias: Wake 1
trigger:
platform: template
value_template: "{{ states('sensor.time') == states('sensor.wake_time_1') }}"
condition:
condition: template
value_template: >
{% set today = 'input_boolean.wakeweekday_' ~ now().strftime("%a") | lower ~ '_1' %}
{{ is_state('input_boolean.wakestatus_1', 'on') and is_state(today, 'on') }}
action:
- data:
gw_mac: 00:00:00:00:00:00
ringtone_id: 10
ringtone_vol: 100
service: xiaomi_aqara.play_ringtoneThen I will assume :
alias: Wake 1
trigger:
platform: template
value_template: "{{ states('sensor.time') == states('sensor.wake_time_1') }}"
condition:
condition: template
value_template: >
{% set today = 'input_boolean.wakeweekday_' ~ now().strftime("%a") | lower ~ '_1' %}
{{ is_state('input_boolean.wakestatus_1', 'on') and is_state(today, 'on') }}
action:
- data:
gw_mac: 00:00:00:00:00:00
ringtone_id: 10
ringtone_vol: 100
service: xiaomi_aqara.play_ringtone
- delay: 5 #????
- data:
gw_mac: 00:00:00:00:00:00
ringtone_id: 10
ringtone_vol: 100
service: xiaomi_aqara.play_ringtone
Should do what you did and add a five second delay and do it again.
Keep in mind that HA will not wait for one action to finish before it does the next so add a delay between the sounds.
(At least that is how it works in Node RED, not sure about HA automation)

Here is a more sophisticated version that includes a repeating alarm action that can be easily silenced using a button (in the UI).
Compared to the previous version, this one also has:
- a timer, for repeating the alarm:
timer.wake_1
- another input_boolean, for indicating when the alarm is activated:
input_boolean.wakeactivated_1
- three additional automations, for managing the timer:
- automation.wake_1_activated
- automation.wake_1_timer_started
- automation.wake_1_timer_finished
- a Conditional card with a Button card to silence the alarm.
1. Timer, Input_Booleans and Input_Numbers
This version uses a 10-second timer for repeating the alarm action. Change the timer’s duration to whatever you prefer. There is also an additional input_boolean to indicate when the alarm is activated.
Click to reveal details
#configuration.yaml
timer:
wake_1:
duration: '00:00:10'
input_boolean:
wakeactivated_1:
name: Alarm 1 Activated
icon: mdi:alarm
wakestatus_1:
name: Alarm 1
icon: mdi:alarm
wakeweekday_sun_1:
name: Sunday
icon: mdi:calendar
wakeweekday_mon_1:
name: Monday
icon: mdi:calendar
wakeweekday_tue_1:

name: Hour
min: 00
max: 23
step: 1
icon: mdi:alarm
wakeminutes_1:
name: Minutes
min: 00
max: 59
step: 1
2. Sensors
The sensors remain the same as in the previous version.
Click to reveal details
#sensor:
- platform: template
sensors:
wake_time_1:
friendly_name: 'Wake Time 1'
value_template: "{{'{:02d}:{:02d}'.format(states('input_number.wakehour_1') | int, states('input_number.wakeminutes_1') | int) }}"
- platform: time_date
display_options:
- 'time'
3. Automation
In this version, there are three additional automations to handle the timer’s events. You must customize the action of automation.wake_1_alarm_activated to suit your needs. In this example, the action simply posts a persistent notification (visible in Home Assistant’s UI) every ten seconds (i.e. the timer’s duration).

condition: state
entity_id: input_boolean.wakeactivated_1
state: 'on'
action:
service: timer.start
entity_id: timer.wake_1
4. Lovelace UI
When no alarm is activated, this is its appearance in the UI (same as the previous version):
When an alarm is activated, a button appears below the alarm clock allowing you to silence the alarm. When you tap the button it will toggle the state of input_boolean.wakeactivated_1 (thereby preventing additional notifications) and the button will disappear from the UI.

NOTE
My personal preference would be to replace the two input_numbers (Hour and Minutes) and sensor (Wake Time) with a single input_datetime. The result of that choice means you must use your phone/tablet’s onscreen keyboard to set the time. I don’t mind the aesthetics of that but others might so that’s why I retained the original example’s use of input_numbers.

oh woa, very detail and you descibe very detail in per codes, Its help for me to know how it’s work, thank you for helping me

Hello @123,
Your config very effective for me. It’s wake me up right time to start my day.
But now im update my Hassio to 0.113, and i see it’s have so many code: Single, Queued, Parallel and Restart. Now, All my script don’t work, its only have sequence Red - Blue - Alarm 1 - Alarm 2 and turn off by themself, only do 1 sequence, not repeat. How can i fix that?
And i try using queued but it don’t work
Below is my code:

For example, a 2 second delay can be created like this:
- delay: '00:00:02'
or like this:
- delay:
seconds: 2

Oh i change to
- delay:
seconds: 2
But it not a loop, i think it's come from new action for scipt (single, restart, parallel and QueuedI’m not suggesting you change to a 2-second delay only that you correct the delay you already have in your script because this is invalid:
delay: '[object Object]'
Regarding the mode option, if you do not include it in a script, according to the documentation, the script will default to using mode: single.

Oh i read infomations change in 0.113. It’s have advanced for coding (Included 4 mode for Automation & Action, and Somes changes in Automation, to fix code can run on 0.113. We need to fix:
In Automation (Change method to Call Script in action)
#(For 0.113 or later)
action:
- service: script.turn_on
entity_id:
- script.flash_gateway1
- script.xiaomi_alarm1
Describe: In 0.112 or previous Version, we call script directly, like below (DONT DO BELOW CODE FOR 0.113 OR LATER)
Action:
- service: script.xiaomi_alarm1
- service: script.flash_gateway1
This mean, after run script.xiaomi_alarm1 done, it will do continue flash_gateway1.
But Script script.xiaomi_alarm1 is a infinity loops. It’s cant be done, and cant continue script flash_gateway1.
In new config we need to call it thourgh on service script turn on. It’s will run 2 scripts same time (not wait script 1 done (end) and will do script 2).
I don’t known 4 new mode for script and automation, but i try per mode one by one. And Parallel is work. And option max for Parralel to do maxium loops. I using 90 for sound and 1000 for light. I think it right for me. (depend on you)
In Script (Using Parallel mode)
