Usually yes, but it is not necessary the case.
If you want to only schedule 1 specific entity (say your living room thermostat), you could make all domains false and only add entities configuration for the thermostat.
The discovery mechanism is just there to make sure you don’t have ‘lost’ schedules running in the background. I wrote a short story about it.
I would like to have multiple scheduler cards in various panels. Now i still have one which gets longer and longer…
With the help of your discussion in the thread I solved it (as it seems for now) I can make separate cards for various switches. Just the way I want it! Thanks!!
Thanks all for mentioning the bugs that came with the release (and sorry for these bugs!)
There is a new version available that should fix all of them.
I have a question to all of you regarding the standard configuration.
I noticed that some of you are struggling with adding and hiding entities, i would like to find a solution to improve this.
Please let me know preference:
It’s fine for me that the climate, light, cover, switch and fan entities are there by default. These are all I need. Keep it as it is.
Make all supported entities visible in the card by default, I will hide what I don’t want to see.
I prefer to start with an empty list. I will choose which entities show up.
I don’t like messing with YAML. Just make a UI editor where I can pick which entities are visible.
