šŸ” KidsChores – Family Chore Management Integration

Hi. I have a problem getting badges to work - in the sense that, a threshold (chore count) has been reached, but the badge is not awarded, it stays as ā€˜in progress’.

I have deleted and recreated the badge - same behaviour.

Hi,

Badges are being fully redone to address this and add some other options. On you particular question, you can see my comment here: Badges Revamp Ā· ad-ha/kidschores-ha Ā· Discussion #120 Ā· GitHub for a similar issue.

Cheers

Btw, adding to the post before. Badges with points work just fine, the issue is with the chore count that, for some reason, went sideways. Cumulative Badges will change to only accept points, for chore counting we will have a new type of periodic badges.

Feel free to have a look on the post that I mentioned above where you have a lot of info on this matter.

And sorry for the issue, I am trying to get this sorted asap, but I am also handling a lot of changes on the core of the code, so it may take a bit longer than what I would like or expect.

How do you add new chores or even another Kid. I did the setup wizard for one kid with one chore just as a test. But I dont know how to add more chores, add more kids, or even change the rewards.

Nevermind I found it.

I’m trying to create an an automation that is triggered by a Reward status changing to ā€˜Approved’. I cannot get it to trigger though.

I’m using the entity for the reward status, and targeting when it changes from Claimed to Approved.

The status of the reward sensor is changing correctly when approved, but the automation isn’t triggering.

Any ideas?!

Hi,

Most probably it might be an issue with capitalization. Try with ā€œclaimedā€ and ā€œapprovedā€, it shall work then.

Cheers

It is! Thanks for that - sorted.

Glad it did work out. Cheers

How can I trigger wen the scheduled chores for the day get completed. I dont see a sensor with a remaining number of chores, the only sensor I think I can use for something like this is the points sensor? When they hit the required number of point defined but then that can be circumvented with multiple claims of allowed chores. I want to enable certain switches but only when the required chores are completed for that day.

Ive looked at the Wiki trying to figure out how to do the reset of points. Dont know where to start or what to do.

Hi @jes1417

So there is no sensor to catch how many chores are set for each day, nor which ones are ā€œmandatoryā€.

In the next version we will deploy ā€œDaily Badgesā€ where you can set certain chores to be tracked each day and a Badge is awarded. With that you may track the badge status and use for your goal.

Right now, on 0.3.1, the best course of action is to create an automation and check the triggers changing to approve on each chore you want. Add as many triggers as you want under an ā€œANDā€ trigger and it should work just fine.

Cheers

Hi @zapatainc

If you only want to reset points, there is no other way than use the manually adjust points buttons (-10, -2, -1). Just hit the buttons the number of times needed to get to 0. :+1:

How do you do this? I looked through the Wiki and cannot for the life of me figure out how this is done.

I misspoke, I meant to say doing a reset of all data not just points.

@zapatainc

Check here: Service: Reset All Data Ā· ad-ha/kidschores-ha Wiki Ā· GitHub

If you want to start from blank at all, remove the integration and re-add it. The above method will only set everything to zero, but keeping all chores, et all, as configured.

I looked through this Wiki but I dont know what to do with it.

Do i just make a button with that action?

ā€œaction: kidschores.reset_all_data
data: {}ā€

Use it under Developer Tools >> Actions
