|
The ``template`` datetime platform allows you to create a datetime with templated values
|
|
using :ref:`lambdas <config-lambda>`.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: yaml
|
|
|
|
datetime:
|
|
# Example Date
|
|
- platform: template
|
|
id: my_date
|
|
type: date
|
|
name: Pick a Date
|
|
optimistic: yes
|
|
initial_value: "2024-01-30"
|
|
restore_value: true
|
|
|
|
# Example Time
|
|
- platform: template
|
|
id: my_time
|
|
type: time
|
|
name: Pick a Time
|
|
optimistic: yes
|
|
initial_value: "12:34:56"
|
|
restore_value: true
|
|
|
|
Configuration variables:
|
|
------------------------
|
|
|
|
- **type** (*Required*, enum): The type of the datetime. Can be one of ``date`` or ``time``.
|
|
- **lambda** (*Optional*, :ref:`lambda <config-lambda>`):
|
|
Lambda to be evaluated every update interval to get the current value of the datetime.
|
|
- **set_action** (*Optional*, :ref:`Action <config-action>`): The action that should
|
|
be performed when the remote (like Home Assistant's frontend) requests to set the
|
|
dateime value. The new value is available to lambdas in the ``x`` variable.
|
|
- **update_interval** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-time`): The interval on which to update the datetime
|
|
by executing the ``lambda``. Defaults to ``60s``.
|
|
- **optimistic** (*Optional*, boolean): Whether to operate in optimistic mode - when in this mode,
|
|
any command sent to the template datetime will immediately update the reported state.
|
|
Cannot be used with ``lambda``. Defaults to ``false``.
|
|
- **restore_value** (*Optional*, boolean): Saves and loads the state to RTC/Flash.
|
|
Cannot be used with ``lambda``. Defaults to ``false``.
|
|
- **initial_value** (*Optional*, string): The value to set the state to on setup if not
|
|
restored with ``restore_value``. Can be one of:
|
|
|
|
- For ``type: date``:
|
|
|
|
- A string in the format ``%Y-%m-%d`` , eg: ``"2023-12-04"``.
|
|
- An object including ``year``, ``month``, ``day``.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: yaml
|
|
|
|
initial_value:
|
|
year: 2023
|
|
month: 12
|
|
day: 4
|
|
|
|
- For ``type: time``:
|
|
|
|
- A string in the format ``%H:%M:%S`` , eg: ``"12:34:56"``.
|
|
- An object including ``hour``, ``minute``, ``second``.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: yaml
|
|
|
|
initial_value:
|
|
hour: 12
|
|
minute: 34
|
|
second: 56
|
|
|
|
- All other options from :ref:`Datetime <config-datetime>`.
