0.69 Local Push internal template

The template platform creates fans that combine integrations and provides the ability to run scripts or invoke services for each of the turn_on, turn_off, set_percentage, set_preset_mode, set_oscillating, and set_direction commands of a fan.

To enable Template Fans in your installation, add the following to your configuration.yaml file:

{% raw %}

# Example configuration.yaml entry
fan:
  - platform: template
    fans:
      bedroom_fan:
        friendly_name: "Bedroom fan"
        value_template: "{{ states('input_boolean.state') }}"
        percentage_template: "{{ states('input_number.percentage') }}"
        preset_mode_template: "{{ states('input_select.preset_mode') }}"
        oscillating_template: "{{ states('input_select.osc') }}"
        direction_template: "{{ states('input_select.direction') }}"
        turn_on:
          service: script.fan_on
        turn_off:
          service: script.fan_off
        set_percentage:
          service: script.fans_set_speed
          data:
            percentage: "{{ percentage }}"
        set_preset_mode:
          service: script.fans_set_preset_mode
          data:
            preset_mode: "{{ preset_mode }}"
        set_oscillating:
          service: script.fan_oscillating
          data:
            oscillating: "{{ oscillating }}"
        set_direction:
          service: script.fan_direction
          data:
            direction: "{{ direction }}"
        speed_count: 6
        preset_modes:
          - 'auto'
          - 'smart'
          - 'whoosh'

Converting from speeds to percentage

When converting a fan with 3 speeds from the old fan entity model, the following percentages can be used:

0 - off 33 - low 66 - medium 100 - high
