Hi all,
Thought I would share my Powerball integration.
My wife and I live in a state that does not offer the lottery, but our neighboring state does. So we typically will make a day trip to get Powerball tickets and get them for a running 10 draws or so. This setup allows me to input the number set(s) from our ticket and get notifications if we win. I also have a card that lets me see information about the current/upcoming draw.
This is done using Powerball’s undocumented API. I had to find a custom component that could parse the JSON response properly. I came across the jsonrest.py script from mad-ady and created a repo just for the jsonrest including the manifest and init files.
Then the yaml setup for the sensors is:
input_datetime:
my_powerball_end_date:
name: My Powerball End Date
has_date: true
has_time: false
input_text:
my_powerball_numbers:
name: My Powerball Numbers
sensor:
- platform: jsonrest
name: Powerball Numbers
resource: https://powerball.com/api/v1/numbers/powerball/recent?_format=json
scan_interval: 300
- platform: jsonrest
name: Powerball Next Draw
resource: https://powerball.com/api/v1/estimates/powerball?_format=json
scan_interval: 300
- platform: template
sensors:
powerball_winning_numbers:
friendly_name: 'Winning Numbers'
value_template: '{{ states.sensor.powerball_numbers.attributes.list[0].field_winning_numbers }}'
powerball_multiplier:
friendly_name: 'Multiplier'
value_template: '{{ states.sensor.powerball_numbers.attributes.list[0].field_multiplier }}'
powerball_draw_date:
friendly_name: 'Drawing Date'
value_template: '{{ as_timestamp(strptime(states.sensor.powerball_numbers.attributes.list[0].field_draw_date+" 00:00:00.0", "%Y-%m-%d,%H:%M:%S-%z")) | timestamp_custom("%m/%d/%y") }}'
powerball_next_draw_days:
friendly_name: 'Days To Next Drawing'
value_template: '{{ (((as_timestamp(states.sensor.powerball_next_draw_date.state) - as_timestamp(states.sensor.date_time_iso.state)) / 3600 / 24)) | int }}'
powerball_next_draw_date:
friendly_name: 'Next Drawing Date'
value_template: '{{ states.sensor.powerball_next_draw.attributes.list[0].field_next_draw_date }}'
powerball_next_prize:
friendly_name: 'Next Prize Amount'
value_template: '{{ states.sensor.powerball_next_draw.attributes.list[0].field_prize_amount }}'
powerball_next_prize_cash:

value_template: '{{ states.sensor.powerball_next_draw.attributes.list[0].field_prize_amount_cash }}'
powerball_win:
friendly_name: 'Powerball Win'
value_template: >
{% set list1 = states.sensor.powerball_draw_date.state.split('/') %}
{% set vardate = '20' + list1[2] + '-' + list1[0] + '-' + list1[1] %}
{% if as_timestamp(states.input_datetime.my_powerball_end_date.state) >= as_timestamp(vardate) -%}
{% set winnum = namespace(value=0) %}
{% set powerball = namespace(value=0) %}
{% set totalwin = namespace(value=0) %}
{% for numset in states.input_text.my_powerball_numbers.state.split(';') -%}
{% for mynum in numset.split(',')[0:5] -%}
{% for num in states.sensor.powerball_winning_numbers.state.split(',')[0:5] -%}
{%- if mynum == num %}{% set winnum.value = winnum.value + 1 %}{% endif -%}
{%- endfor %}
{%- endfor %}
{%- if numset.split(',')[5] == states.sensor.powerball_winning_numbers.state.split(',')[5] %}
{% set powerball.value = 1 %}
{% endif -%}
{%- if winnum.value < 2 and powerball.value == 1 %}{% set totalwin.value = totalwin.value + 4 %}
{% elif winnum.value == 2 and powerball.value == 1 %}{% set totalwin.value = totalwin.value + 7 %}
{% elif winnum.value == 3 and powerball.value == 0 %}{% set totalwin.value = totalwin.value + 7 %}
{% elif winnum.value == 3 and powerball.value == 1 %}{% set totalwin.value = totalwin.value + 100 %}
{% elif winnum.value == 4 and powerball.value == 0 %}{% set totalwin.value = totalwin.value + 100 %}
{% elif winnum.value == 4 and powerball.value == 1 %}{% set totalwin.value = totalwin.value + 50000 %}
{% elif winnum.value == 5 and powerball.value == 0 %}{% set totalwin.value = totalwin.value + 1000000 %}
{% elif winnum.value == 5 and powerball.value == 1 %}{% set totalwin.value = totalwin.value + 40000000 %}
{% else %}{% set totalwin.value = totalwin.value + 0 %}
{% endif -%}
{% set winnum.value = 0 %}
{% set powerball.value = 0 %}
{%- endfor %}
{{ "$%.2f"|format(totalwin.value) }}
{%- else -%}
Not Playing
{%- endif %}
powerball_did_i_win:
friendly_name: 'Powerball Did I Win'
value_template: '{% if states("sensor.powerball_win") != "$0.00" and states("sensor.powerball_win") != "Not Playing" %}true{% else %}false{% endif %}'
Then my automation:
- id: '1577941963380'
alias: '[Notify] Powerball Win'
description: ''
trigger:
- entity_id: sensor.powerball_draw_date
platform: state
condition:
- condition: state
entity_id: sensor.powerball_did_i_win
state: 'true'
action:
- data:
message: '{{ states("sensor.powerball_win") }}'
notification_id: 1234
title: Powerball Win
service: persistent_notification.create
- data:
message: '{{ states("sensor.powerball_win") }}'
title: Powerball Win
service: notify.mobile_app_tj_iphone
- data:
message: '{{ states("sensor.powerball_win") }}'
title: Powerball Win
service: notify.mobile_app_iphone
The card requries the config-template-card plugin. Then the card yaml is:
card:
entities:
- entity: sensor.powerball_winning_numbers
icon: 'mdi:numeric-7-circle'
name: ''
- entity: sensor.powerball_next_prize
icon: 'mdi:ticket'
name: ''
- entity: sensor.powerball_win
icon: 'mdi:cash'
name: ''
show_header_toggle: false
style:
.: |
.card-header {
padding: 16px;
}
#states div {
margin: 0px
}
title: '${"Last: " + vars[0] + " | Next: " + vars[1]}'
type: 'custom:hui-entities-card'
entities:
- sensor.powerball_winning_numbers
- sensor.powerball_next_prize
- sensor.powerball_win
type: 'custom:config-template-card'
variables:
- 'states[''sensor.powerball_draw_date''].state'
- 'states[''sensor.powerball_next_draw_days''].state'
For multiple number sets they just need to be separated by a semi-colon.
I would like to make a custom card for this, but my javascript skills are fairly limited! 
Hopefully this will be useful to my fellow gamblers.
