I’m trying to make an automation to simplify my other automations.
I have groups of switches and i have groups of lights in groups.yaml, i also have automations that runs switch.turn_on
and
light.turn_on
It’s repeated in several automations.
What i want is an automation that turns lights and switches on, that i can call from other automations.
So something like this, i haven’t gotten to work though:
alias: "switch and light on"
action:
- service: switch.turn_on
entity_id:
- group.window
- service: light.turn_on
entity_id:
- light.tronika_dimmer_zv_9101_level
And call that like this:
- id: lights_on
alias: "Turn on lights"
trigger:
platform: sun
event: sunset
offset: '-00:45:00'
condition:
condition: time
before: "22:00:00"
action:
service: automation_start
- id mixed_light_on
The last bit after service i just made up to make my point.
