Home Assistant has a built-in component called device_sun_light_trigger
to help you automate your lights. The component will:
- Fade in the lights when the sun is setting and there are people home
- Turn on the lights when people get home after the sun has set
- Turn off the lights when all people leave the house
This component requires the components sun, device_tracker and light to be enabled.
To enable this component, add the following lines to your configuration.yaml
file:
# Example configuration.yaml entry
device_sun_light_trigger:
{% configuration %} light_group: description: Specify a specific light/group of lights that has to be turned on. required: false type: string light_profile: description: Specify which light profile to use when turning lights on. required: false default: relax type: string device_group: description: Specify which group of devices to track. required: false type: string disable_turn_off: description: Disable lights being turned off when everybody leaves the house. required: false default: false type: boolean {% endconfiguration %}
A full configuration example could look like this:
# Example configuration.yaml entry
device_sun_light_trigger:
light_group: group.living_room
light_profile: relax
device_group: group.my_devices
disable_turn_off: 1
