internal | 0.11 |
The input_boolean integration allows the user to define boolean values that can be controlled via the frontend and can be used within conditions of automation. This can for example be used to disable or enable certain automations.
To enable input booleans in your installation, add the following lines to your configuration.yaml:
# Example configuration.yaml entry
input_boolean:
notify_home:
name: Notify when someone arrives home
initial: off
icon: mdi:car
{% configuration %} input_boolean: description: Alias for the input. Multiple entries are allowed. required: true type: map keys: name: description: Friendly name of the input. required: false type: string initial: description: Initial value when Home Assistant starts. required: false type: boolean default: false icon: description: Icon to display in front of the input element in the frontend. required: false type: icon {% endconfiguration %}
Restore State
This integration will automatically restore the state it had prior to Home Assistant stopping as long as your entity does not have a set value for initial. To disable this feature, set a valid value for initial.
Automation Examples
Here's an example of an automation using the above input_boolean. This action will only occur if the switch is on.
automation:
alias: Arriving home
trigger:
platform: state
entity_id: binary_sensor.motion_garage
to: 'on'
condition:
condition: state
entity_id: input_boolean.notify_home
state: 'on'
action:
service: notify.pushbullet
data:
title: ""
message: "Honey, I'm home!"
You can also set or change the status of an input_boolean by using input_boolean.turn_on, input_boolean.turn_off or input_boolean.toggle in your automations.
- service: input_boolean.turn_on
data:
entity_id: input_boolean.notify_home
