Template integration defines attributes dynamic from state template

Configuration
1

Hi,

I’m using the template integration to create a state template finding some values. Only one should set in state and others at attributes. I think it isn’t fine to running the same template in every attribute define again. So how can I set the different attributes.

  sensor:
  - unique_id: tmp_urlaubskalender
    name: tmp_urlaubskalender
    icon: mdi:calendar-search
    state: >-
      {% set nextoffset = namespace(found = false, offset = 999, date = '') %}
      {% for scheduler in integration_entities('scheduler') %}
        {% if 'Urlaub' in state_attr(scheduler,'tags') %}
          {% if not (state_attr(scheduler,'next_trigger') in ['unavailable', 'unknown', 'none']) %}
            {% set today = as_timestamp(now()) %}
            {% set next = as_timestamp(state_attr(scheduler,'next_trigger')) %}
            {% set offset = ((next-today)/86400) | round(0,'ceil') %}
            {% if offset < nextoffset.offset %}
              {% set nextoffset.found = true %}
              {% set nextoffset.offset = offset %}
              {% set nextoffset.date = next | timestamp_custom('%d.%m.') %}
            {% endif %}
          {% endif %}
        {% endif %}
      {% endfor %}
      {{- nextoffset.found -}}

So here you can see setting the state to nextoffset.found and I want to set at attribute call offset to nextoffset.offset …

But without using always this code to get the different values?

I hope it’s clear :wink:

Thank you, Steffen

Maybe it’s a little bit clearer if I post the full code. Here You can see that I run nearly the same code three times (yes a little bit of optimization is needed), an using ressources to fill the state and different attributes. The question is can I fill attributes with only on running template (reference the variables of state in attribute section or create attributes from state section …)?
