Yeah I had seen that but not being a scripter I was immediately put off the idea of even trying it.
This however has really got my attention!
Heating support, in my case, is a switch.
Unless you/he mean climate control. I could add it, of course.
Maybe I will wait a few to understand what could be useful to community and add those features. 
The addon is just born!

This could be a very good alternative to schedy!
@ArthurDent1975 at first I would start to support climate entities.
After that it would be nice to get some conditions to control the schedule. Like āset climate to 21Ā°, but only if somebody is at homeā.

I tried the addon. For the first, it is working fine.
i got a few ideas for improvements for you.
At first, as i said, conditions and supporting climate entitites.
Then it would be nice if i can turn on or off the schedule with the slider on the left. Not going into edit to disable it.
It also would be nice to select more than one entity. So if I may have a group of lights, I dont need a seperate schedule for each of them.
Then you can change the checkboxes in the edit view to the same circles you use in the normal view.
Thats all small improvements that make sense in my opinion.
I think the biggest improvement for now would be conditions. For example, the garden season starts. And I want to automatically control my lights in the garden. But only when somebody is at home and also the start point should be controlled by the position of the sun. So that the lights will only be turned on, when the sun is below the horizon.

Great workā¦ Any future plans to add cover.XXXX_level or cover.XXXXX_switch?

thanks a lot for this app! your next beer is paid 
ā¦ i just automated all the switches on the road and removed the previous automation. really good would be thermostats. from when to when to heat, in which mode (heat, auto, off). so just the basics. i tried schedy, but it really lacks a graphical user interface. i really like your user interface for the switches 
ā¦ clean and well arranged.

what might be interesting would be to define sunrise and sunset as time. but i donāt know if this is possible with static json files.
Nicely done!
Iād like to respectfully request if this could be expanded to include input_booleans and automatons as well?

Thank you so much!!!
You hit the point!
I put the word simple in the name for a reasonā¦ 
By the wayā¦ you can never sayā¦ 
Oh my, thereās a lot of stuff in hereā¦
Ok, letās seeā¦
Disable slider: well, you problably didnāt consider the mobile version. My wife only use the android app. It would be easy to tap on that by mistake. I even remove the icon in mobile view (the row become dimmed, so it is clear to understand).
Checkbox: Yes, that was my first idea. But it requires some javascript and a little effort to achieve that. It was easier this way. I primarly focused on the functionality. But it is in my mind.
More entities: Iām not sure it would be cozy. It would also make the editing more tricky and give user more chance to make a mess.
Condition: Thatās far away from the pourpose of this addon. I never stop repeating that it has to be simple. Conditions are greatly implemented in HA, and they are mented for advanced user. You set the rule, you (mostly) never touch it again. This addon want to add something that was missing in HA, for (almost) everyday use. Last but not the least, Implement a condition engine in the addon would be very very very very complicated. (Did I say very?). I hope you will get my point
I call service.turn_on and service.turn_off which works for both switches and lights.
Covers have different services (service.open_cover, service.close_cover, and so on)
This would require a major change in codeā¦ 
Thanks for the respect!

Thank you for sharing this useful addition to Home Assistant. I donāt want to discourage further development but feel you should know that there is work underway to develop a scheduling integration.
To be clear, discussion started a year ago and itās unknown how much more time is needed before it is ready to be released. In addition, it is the engine and not the accompanying UI that must also be developed to allow userās to interact with the engine. Therefore it may be some time before we see anything that looks like the add-on youāve created (but it will be released eventually).

You need to be careful with your wishes because if you simply call homeassistant.turn_on/turn_off service it might end up like this 
tl;dr for automations it should be automation.trigger service rather than homeassistant.turn_on/off
Thank you for your advice.
I needed the scheduling right now, so I created it by myself.
It tooks me a week of work and it gave me the chance to understand a lot of things under the hood about HA, starting from docker.
When the scheduler integration will be ready, this addon will become useless.
In the meanwhile, I hope it helps the community!
Thanks again!

Just a few things which come in mind when I tested.
You are right, the name says āsimpleā. So if you want to keep it simple, its already perfect.
More entities or conditions got the potential to make it a ādifficult Schedulerā. But if you want to expand the capabilities of your addon, just put my notes to a future feature list and think about it
Or you can make a second addon. A simple scheduler and a universal scheduler.

I really like this, and itās written in php so bonus. Would you be willing to accept prās?
Hi @Sabuto
Iām kinda new to all this git world. (It took me 5 minutes to understand your question )
I have to learn it because of this project.
Iām not a corporate programmer (maybe Iām not a programmer at all), so Iām not familiar with team working.
Please, donāt get me wrong, Iām still not prepared to this.
What would be your idea of improvement?
So looking through the code you use jquery but only on the tooltip. I would probably change out the rest to use jquery (just for readability). I would also be happy to implement some of the ideas other have had with the different things like climate etc
Also just out of interest why do you pull the python image?
JQuery is there not just for tooltip. I planned to use Datatable to sort columns and to use rounded toggle buttons instead of checkboxes. Being this just esthetics, I postponed.
The python image is a mistake due to laziness . The first version of the scheduler engine was in python and I didnāt want to rewrite it. But I was having trouble running it in docker along with PHP. So I convert it to PHP. I forgot to remove python image from Dockerfile. Thank you for the tip.
Not for my use case. I have automations that control my house climate. I want them enabled or disabled for certain periods. They may then be triggered by temperature during those periods.
