The group light platform lets you combine multiple lights into one entity. All child lights of a light group can still be used as usual, but controlling the state of the grouped light will forward the command to each child light.
|
||||
|
||||
To enable this platform in your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
# Example configuration.yaml entry
|
||||
light:
|
||||
- platform: group
|
||||
name: Kitchen Lights
|
||||
entities:
|
||||
- light.kitchen_ceiling_lights
|
||||
- light.kitchen_under_cabinet_lights
|
||||
- light.kitchen_spot_lights
|
||||
- light.pendant_lights
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
{% configuration %}
|
||||
name:
|
||||
description: The name of the light group. Defaults to "Light Group".
|
||||
required: false
|
||||
type: string
|
||||
entities:
|
||||
description: A list of entities to be included in the light group.
|
||||
required: true
|
||||
type: string list
|
||||
{% endconfiguration %}
|
||||

Example of the light group "Kitchen Lights".
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
The supported features of all lights will be added together. For example, if you have one RGB light in a group of otherwise brightness-only lights, the light group will be shown with a color picker.
