I work a 2 days swing shift 2 nights then 4 days off
so I want home assistant to know when Im working not working
after finding
this got me thinking
only rules are
- need to know the roster
- day 1 of the roster only needs tobe set once
- need to know the patten
download form here
just put my_shift.py into your python_scripts folder
must have
python_script:
in your configuration.yaml
Script arguments
| key | required | type | description |
|---|---|---|---|
name: |
True | string | Name of the date (eg. StePhan) |
shiftpatten: |
True | string | Type of Shift |
firstdayshift: |
True | string | Date, in format DD/MM/YYYY day 1 of shift patten |
patten: |
True | string | What the Patten DDNN = (doing 2 days then 2 nigths) |
patten: is what shift patten are you doing
eg
DDNN = work 2 days then 2 nites
DDDDD = work 5 days in a row
firstdayshift: only has tobe full out once as it just uses maths to work out weather you on/off
| shiftpatten | patten |
|---|---|
| ‘4x4x12’ | 4 days ON x 4 days off x 12 hour days and it a 8 day cycle |
| ‘4x2x12’ | 4 days ON x 2 days off x 12 hour days and it a 6 day cycle |
| ‘5x2x8’ | 5 days ON x 2 days off x 8 hour days and it a 7 day cycle |
| ‘6x1x8’ | 6 days ON x 1 day off x 8 hour days and it a 7 day cycle |
must be small x
I have tested the above shiftpatten if someone has a differance patten it should work
if you are a monday-friday worker try this workday Binary Sensor
as this look at the public hoildays in your country
so i work a 4x4x12
name: StePhan
shiftpatten: 4x4x12
patten: DDNN
firstdayshift: 20/10/2019
date must be in DD/MM/YYYY format
so well need to add a automation that fires once a day and when HA restarts
automation:
- alias: set the shift patten on/off
trigger:
- platform: time
at: '00:00:01'
- platform: homeassistant
event: start
action:
- service: python_script.my_shift
data:
name: StePhan
shiftpatten: 4x4x12
patten: DDNN
firstdayshift: 20/10/2019
it will create a sensor
call sensor.stephan_4x4x12
which looks like this
and using lovelace secondary_info
- entity: sensor.stephan_4x4x12
secondary_info: >-
Next Off: [[ {entity}.attributes.next_off_date ]] <br> Next start: [[
{entity}.attributes.next_start_date ]]
type: 'custom:secondaryinfo-entity-row'
here is one of my automation
I wake at 4am on my days
but need to read the attributes of this_day as this will say Day or Night or Off
so looking at the template
so
- id: 'Wake me up roster only morning'
alias: Wake me up roster morning
trigger:
- at: '4:00:00'
platform: time
condition:
condition: and
conditions:
- condition: state
entity_id: sensor.stephan_4x4x12
state: 'on'
- condition: template
value_template: >-
{{states.sensor.stephan_4x4x12.attributes["this_day"] == 'Day'}}
action:
- data:
entity_id: light.his_side
service: light.turn_on
- delay: '00:10:00'
- data:
entity_id: light.his_side
service: light.turn_off
logic look and feel right
just waiting for my next days on LOL
if you want you can add to the HACS
goto HACS setting and paste ‘https://github.com/MYLE-01/my_shift’ into the ADD CUSTOM REPOSTORY and make the category python_script
still reading up on how to add it the HACS
