Hello everyone,
I have had a look around, but can’t find the syntax for what I am trying to get working.
I have a sensor in Home Assistant which has 4 attributes:
- platform: template
sensors:
house_warning:
friendly_name: Current Active Warnings
value_template: >
{% if(states("input_boolean.house_alarm")) == "on" or (states("binary_sensor.ratgdov25i_11e256_obstruction")) == "on" (states("cover.ratgdov25i_11e256_door")) != "closed" or (state_attr("sensor.recycling_bin", "days")) < 2 (state_attr("sensor.green_bin", "days")) < 2 %}
true
{% else %}
false
{% endif %}
attribute_templates:
red: >
{% if(states("input_boolean.house_alarm")) == "on" or (states("binary_sensor.ratgdov25i_11e256_obstruction")) == "on" or (state_attr("sensor.recycling_bin", "days")) < 2 %}
100
{% elif(states("cover.ratgdov25i_11e256_door")) == "open" or (states("cover.ratgdov25i_11e256_door")) == "opening" %}
47
{% else %}
0
{% endif %}
green: >
{% if(states("cover.ratgdov25i_11e256_door")) == "closing" or (state_attr("sensor.recycling_bin", "days")) < 2 or (state_attr("sensor.green_bin", "days")) < 2 %}
100
{% else %}
0
{% endif %}
blue: >
{% if(states("cover.ratgdov25i_11e256_door")) == "open" or (states("cover.ratgdov25i_11e256_door")) == "opening" %}
78
{% else %}
0
{% endif %}
effect: >
{% if(states("input_boolean.house_alarm")) == "on" or (states("cover.ratgdov25i_11e256_door")) == "opening" or (states("cover.ratgdov25i_11e256_door")) == "closing" %}
"pulse"
{% else %}
"none"
{% endif %}
This sensor will be used to announce any warnings with the logic being inside Home Assistant.
I want ESPHome to listen and react to this sensor. If the value is true I wish to pass the red, green, blue and effect attributes as parameters to a script to control some leds.
binary_sensor:
- platform: homeassistant
id: Warning
name: "House Warning State"
entity_id: binary_sensor.house_warning
on_value:
then:
- if:
condition:
text_sensor.state:
id: Warning
state: 'off'
then:
- script.execute:
id: led_off_alert
- if:
condition:
not:
text_sensor.state:
id: Warning
state: 'off'
then:
- script.execute:
id: led_on_alert
red: attribute: red
green: attribute: green
blue: attribute: blue
effect: attribute: effect
script:
- id: led_on_alert
parameters:
red: int
green: int
blue: int
effect: string
mode: restart
then:
- lambda: >
ESP_LOGD("Alert", "On:");
- light.turn_on:
id: leds_alert
brightness: 1
red: !lambda return red;
green: !lambda return green;
blue: !lambda return blue;
effect: !lambda return effect;
How can I pass the attributes from the HA sensor to the script?
Thanks
OK, sussed it.
I created extra sensors for each of the attributes. I had to add a call to the LED on script from each as a garage door state change does not always give a boolean change to the binary sensors state. This in turn required a delay in the light on script so all colour changes could be captured before they were sent to the LEDs which would otherwise create some unwanted colours.

I didn’t include my light description as all strips would be different. FYI my LED strip was actually the LEDs surrounding a Sonoff TX Ultimate 120 switch.
If there is a more eloquent way please let me know.
