I’ve been looking, but have not found.
Does anyone know of a way to grab the value of the new author tag in Blueprints and use it as a this.something
in the code.
When I create an MQTT entity in a blueprint, I would like to use that variable as part of the config json for the new entity. Why not, right?
A version tag would be awesome as well, should anyone be listening…
Bumping this.
Anyone have an idea or where I could look?
You can view all available variables in an automation by looking at he variables section on a trace. (no, there is no variable that does this)
I did look there. This addition is extremely helpful when developing things.
I also know some things can be hidden, was feeling around if anyone new something I didn’t.
I also think that a field for the revision of the blueprint that is available to the this.x constants list would be helpful.
I have a few blueprints and would love to be able to add a revision variable that I could then pass to a variable that I create with MQTT discovery, for example.
Also I could also use it to decide in whether to do an action in the main code or not.
It may also be useful with future plans on BluePrint Updates.
