State Trigger Example

A simple State Trigger that fires when the state of group.device_trackers switches to not_home for more than 2 minutes (to prevent spamming if the state flips on/off)

It then sends a message to the log.

The state trigger can be used to trigger when doors open or people leave. It could also be used to trigger when a thermostat turns on/off to check if windows are all closed.

@state_trigger("group.device_trackers == 'not_home'")
def state_trigger():
    log.info(f"State Trigger test:")
    trig_info = task.wait_until(
                    state_trigger="group.device_trackers == 'home'",
                    timeout=120
                )
    if trig_info["trigger_type"] == "timeout":
        log.info(f"State Trigger test: fail")
        pass
    else:
        log.info(f"State Trigger test: pass")
        pass
