I’m building an automation to mark a room occupied if there was movement in the last 30 minutes, but I need to this to 10 different rooms, so far I’m just copying past the code, but I wonder if there is a way to this better.
Right now the code for 1 item looks like this:
input_boolean:
living_room_occupancy:
name: 'Living Room Occupancy'
initial: off
automation:
## Living Room
- alias: Living Room Occupied
trigger:
platform: state
entity_id: binary_sensor.living_room_sensor
to: 'on'
action:
- service: input_boolean.turn_on
entity_id: input_boolean.living_room_occupancy
- alias: Living Room Away
trigger:
platform: state
entity_id: binary_sensor.living_room_sensor
to: 'off'
for:
minutes: 30
action:
- service: input_boolean.turn_off
entity_id: input_boolean.living_room_occupancy
I do get that I would need to create the 10 input_boolen, and that is not a big deal, but copy/past 10 time the automation is kind of annoying sine the name are the same!
