Hi There device_tracker via MQTT in NetAlertX, but the state is shown with quotes, for example "home", "away". Is it possible to remove the quotes, so the state is shown as home and away?
Here is the relevant code:
elif self.sensorType == 'device_tracker':
self.topic = f'homeassistant/device_tracker/{self.deviceId}/config'
self.state_topic = f'system-sensors/device_tracker/{self.deviceId}/state'
self.json_attr_topic = f'system-sensors/device_tracker/{self.deviceId}/attributes'
self.unique_id = f'{self.deviceId}_{self.sensorType}_{self.sensorName}'
payload_home = 'home'
payload_away = 'away'
self.message = {
"state_topic": self.state_topic,
"json_attributes_topic": self.json_attr_topic,
"name": self.sensorName,
"payload_home": payload_home,
"payload_not_home": payload_away,
"unique_id" : self.unique_id,
"icon": f'mdi:{self.icon}',
"device":
{
"identifiers" : [self.deviceId+"_sensor", self.unique_id],
I searched for a solution (MQTT Device_Tracker Entity Registration Issue ) and I might need to use a value_template, but I’m not 100% sure.
Thanks in advance!
