Picture-elements - tap-action toggle template

Configuration

Again I’m reaching the end of my knowledge and understanding…

I’m trying to rebuild my smartphone for my people lovelace in an abstract way to get a handy way to change or - in this part - toggle different states of my mobile.

Unbenannt

To start I want to have an image showing me the current ringer_mode AND the option to tap_action that image to toggle between the three different modes (normal, vibrate, silent).

I got the first part and can show the different states and I got one third of the second but as I’m able call the service to change the ringer_mode to ONE other state.

type: picture-elements
image: /local/Icons/pixel4xl.png
elements:
  - type: image
    entity: sensor.pixel_4_xl_ringer_mode
    state_image:
      silent: /local/Icons/silent.png
      vibrate: /local/Icons/vibrate.png
      normal: /local/Icons/normal.png
    style:
      top: 11%
      left: 20%
      width: 15%
    tap_action:
      action: call-service
      service: notify.mobile_app_pixel_4_xl
      service_data:
        message: command_ringer_mode
        title: normal

The next step should be a template to change the states of the ringer_mode depending on the actual state at the moment. This is what I tried and what didn’t work.

type: picture-elements
image: /local/Icons/pixel4xl.png
elements:
  - type: image
    entity: sensor.pixel_4_xl_ringer_mode
    tap_action:
      action: call-service
      service: notify.mobile_app_pixel_4_xl
      service_data:
          message: command_ringer_mode
          title: '{% if is_state('sensor.pixel_4_xl_ringer_mode', 'normal') %} vibrate {% elif is_state('sensor.pixel_4_xl_ringer_mode', 'vibrate') silent %} {% elif is_state('sensor.pixel_4_xl_ringer_mode', 'silent'), normal {%endif %}'
    state_image:
      silent: /local/Icons/silent.png
      vibrate: /local/Icons/vibrate.png
      normal: /local/Icons/normal.png
    style:
      top: 11%
      left: 20%
      width: 15%

Would be great if somebody could push me in the right direction!

Okay, although you’re not right in this case as templating is supported you pointed in the right direction somehow as I tried to call it via script and the script wasn’t working either.

That got me to the Developer Tools >> Template were I found out that my template was totally messed up. :slight_smile:

I corrected the template and now everything’s working. Every new tap changes to the next state as I wanted it.

type: picture-elements
image: /local/Icons/pixel4xl.png
elements:
  - type: image
    entity: sensor.pixel_4_xl_ringer_mode
    state_image:
      silent: /local/Icons/silent.png
      vibrate: /local/Icons/vibrate.png
      normal: /local/Icons/normal.png
    style:
      top: 11%
      left: 20%
      width: 15%
    tap_action:
      action: call-service
      service: notify.mobile_app_pixel_4_xl
      service_data:
        message: command_ringer_mode
        title: >-
          {% if is_state('sensor.pixel_4_xl_ringer_mode', 'normal')  %} vibrate
          {% elif is_state('sensor.pixel_4_xl_ringer_mode', 'vibrate') %} silent
          {% elif is_state('sensor.pixel_4_xl_ringer_mode', 'silent') %} normal
          {% endif %}

One thing leaves to be desired:
‘silent’ is the mode of my ringer when totally know sound ist on, checked via Developer Tools but if I sent ‘silent’ via notify service it sets my mobile to ‘do not disturb’. I can live with that right now but…
