# Hive Mind Automation - Video - Getting a Briefing from your Smart Home in Home Assistant
|
||||
|
||||
## Preface
|
||||
|
||||
This serves as supplemental information for the Hive Mind Automation YouTube Video
|
||||
[Create a Daily Briefing with Home Assistant]()
|
||||
|
||||
It contains code snippets of Jinja2 Templates used in the announcements, and I've added a `scripts.yaml` file so you can see how I use it in my setup.
|
||||
|
||||
I've broken the scripts into individual snippets to be triggered by the automation.
|
||||
|
||||
Reference materials are available at:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
[Time Announcement](./time.md)
|
||||
[Weather - Temperature](./weatherTemperature.md)
|
||||
[Weather - Wind](./weatherWind.md)
|
||||
[Inside Temperatures](./inside%20temps.md)
|
||||
[Dad Joke, Quote and Random Fact](./fun.md)
|
||||
[Pending Updates](./pending%20updates.md)

|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Script Contents
|
||||
The Basis of each Script in Home Assistant is:
|
||||
```
|
||||
service: notify.alexa_media
|
||||
data:
|
||||
data:
|
||||
type: tts
|
||||
message: "
|
||||
<YOUR TEMPLATED MESSAGE HERE>
|
||||
"
|
||||
target:
|
||||
- media_player.dining_room_echo_plus
|
||||
- media_player.bedroom_echo_dot
|
||||
- media_player.office_echo_dot
|
||||
- media_player.spare_room_echo_dot
|
||||
```
|
||||
Where we'll then swap out `<YOUR TEMPLATED MESSAGE HERE>` for what we want to actually say.
|
||||
In this case, I'm using the Alexa Media ACS add-on, but you could reasonably use this with Google home, or ANY text to speech engine from Home Assistant, including

# Home Assistant Jinja 2 Templates for Weather Temperatures
|
||||
|
||||
## Step-by-step
|
||||
|
||||
### Get the current Temperature from Home Assistant
|
||||
We're casting this as a float, probably no need, but I'd rather be safe.
|
||||
```
|
||||
{% set current_temp = state_attr ('weather.home','temperature') | float %}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Get the current weather condition from Home Assistant as well
|
||||
```
|
||||
{% set current_condition = states('weather.home') %}
|
||||
```
|
||||
### Fix the current Condition
|
||||
When the Current weather condition is "Partly Cloudy" the default weather integration returns `partlycloudy` and it sounds odd when read out by a Text to Speech engine.
|
||||
To fix it I added:
|
||||
```
|
||||
{% if current_condition == 'partlycloudy' %}
|
||||
{% set current_condition = 'Partly Cloudy' %}
|
||||
{% endif %}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Announce the current condition and Temperature
|
||||
```
|
||||
Outside, It's {{ current_condition }} and {{ current_temp }} degrees Celsius.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Figure out the Highs and Lows from the forecast
|
||||
For weather information, I want to know the High and Low temp. This data is strangely not included by default in the default weather integration, so we have to figure it out ourselves.
|
||||
|
||||
### Start by Extracting the `forecast` array data into a variable
|
||||
```
|
||||
{% set weather = state_attr('weather.home', 'forecast') %}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Instantiate a `high_temp` and `low_temp` variable
|
||||
We're assigning the temperature from the 0th record in the array to get started.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
{% set high_temp = weather[0].temperature %}
|
||||
{% set low_temp = weather[0].templow %}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Iterate through the array and set the `high_temp` or `low_temp` variables accordingly.
|
||||
I've also added an `if` statement in here to announce if any of the forecast conditions are `rainy` and the `hour` that the rain is forecast for and to tell us to take an umbrella.
|
||||
I've surrounded that code block with `###########` for clarity
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
{% for entry in weather %}
|
||||
{% if entry.temperature > high_temp %}
|
||||
{% set high_temp = entry.temperature %}
|
||||
{% endif %}
|
||||
{% if entry.templow < low_temp %}
|
||||
{% set low_temp = entry.templow %}
|
||||
{% endif %}
|
||||
|
||||
###########
|
||||
# While we're here, if the condition for this hour is `rainy` let's announce that
|
||||
{% if entry.condition == 'rainy'%}
|
||||
It looks like there's rain expected at around {{ entry.datetime.split('T')[1][:2] }} o'clock.
|
||||
You might want to take an umbrella if you're leaving the house.
|
||||
{% endif %}
|
||||
###########
|
||||
|
||||
{% endfor %}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Some Qualitative statements about the `high_temp`
|
||||
This code block looks at the `high_temp` variable and runs the if statement below to make a qualitative statement about it.
|
||||
These have been built for °C and I pulled the qualitative statements out of my head.
|
||||
Change them as you need to
|
||||
|
||||
`Above 30°C` say "It's going to be a hot one"
|
||||
`between 20°C and 30°C` say "It should be a warm day"
|
||||
`between 15°C and 20°C` say "It's going to be a pretty mild temperature today"
|
||||
`between 10°C and 15°C` say "It seems like it'll be a bit chilly today"
|
||||
`between 0°C and 10°C` say "It's going to be a cold day"
|
||||
else: the `high_temp` variable must be < 0°C
|
||||
`< 0°C` say "It's going to be freezing today"
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
{% if high_temp > 30 %}
|
||||
It's going to be a hot one
|
||||
{% elif 20 < high_temp < 30 %}
|
||||
It should be a warm day
|
||||
{% elif 15 < high_temp < 20 %}
|
||||
It's going to be a pretty mild temperature today
|
||||
{% elif 10 < high_temp < 15 %}
|
||||
It seems like it'll be a bit chilly today
|
||||
{% elif 0 < high_temp < 10 %}
|
||||
It's going to be a cold day
|
||||
{% else %}
|
||||
It's going to be freezing today
|
||||
{% endif %}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Announce the `high_temp` and `low_temp` values
|
||||
Again, built for °C
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
The forecast high is {{ high_temp }} °C.
|
||||
With a Low of {{ low_temp }} °C .
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Some qualitative statements about the `low_temp`
|
||||
Again we're looking at °C and the statements and ranges are arbitrary, and can be adjusted to your tastes
|
||||
|
||||
Remember these are for the `low_temp` variable, so it's not going to get colder than these
|
||||
|
||||
`Above 30°C` say "Wow. That's hot!"
|
||||
`between 20°C and 30°C` say "it's not going to get below 20°C toda.y"
|
||||
`between 10°C and 20°C` say "it might get a little bit chilly."
|
||||
`between 0°C and 10°C` say "That's cold."
|
||||
`< 0°C` say "Absolutely freezing!"
|
||||
|
||||
Puntuation like `.`, `!`, `?` and `,` is important in the text to speech statments so the timing sounds "natural"
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
{% if low_temp > 30 %}
|
||||
Wow. That's hot!
|
||||
{% elif 20 < low_temp < 30 %}
|
||||
it's not going to go below 20°C today.
|
||||
{% elif 10 < low_temp < 20 %}
|
||||
it might get a little bit chilly.
|
||||
{% elif 0 < low_temp < 10 %}
|
||||
That's cold.
|
||||
{% else %}
|
||||
Absolutely freezing!
|
||||
{% endif %}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Now we can put it all together:
|
||||
```
|
||||
{% set current_temp = state_attr ('weather.home','temperature') | float %}
|
||||
{% set current_condition = states('weather.home') %}
|
||||
|
||||
{% if current_condition == 'partlycloudy' %}
|
||||
{% set current_condition = 'Partly Cloudy' %}
|
||||
{% endif %}
|
||||
|
||||
Outside, It's {{ current_condition }} and {{ current_temp }} degrees Celsius.
|
||||
|
||||
{% set weather = state_attr('weather.home', 'forecast') %}
|
||||
{% set high_temp = weather[0].temperature %}
|
||||
{% set low_temp = weather[0].templow %}
|
||||
|
||||
{% for entry in weather %}
|
||||
{% if entry.temperature > high_temp %}
|
||||
{% set high_temp = entry.temperature %}
|
||||
{% endif %}
|
||||
{% if entry.templow < low_temp %}
|
||||
{% set low_temp = entry.templow %}
|
||||
{% endif %}
|
||||
{% if entry.condition == 'rainy'%}
|
||||
It looks like there's rain expected at around {{ entry.datetime.split('T')[1][:2] }} o'clock. You might want to take an umbrella if you're leaving the house.
|
||||
{% endif %}
|
||||
{% endfor %}
|
||||
|
||||
{% if high_temp > 30 %}
|
||||
It's going to be a hot one
|
||||
{% elif 20 < high_temp < 30 %}
|
||||
It should be a warm day
|
||||
{% elif 15 < high_temp < 20 %}
|
||||
It's going to be a pretty mild temperature today
|
||||
{% elif 10 < high_temp < 15 %}
|
||||
It seems like it'll be a bit chilly today
|
||||
{% elif 0 < high_temp < 10 %}
|
||||
It's going to be a cold day
|
||||
{% else %}
|
||||
It's going to be freezing today
|
||||
{% endif %}
|
||||
|
||||
The forecast high is {{ high_temp }} °C.
|
||||
|
||||
With a Low of {{ low_temp }} °C .
|
||||
{% if low_temp > 30 %}
|
||||
Wow. That's hot!
|
||||
{% elif 20 < low_temp < 30 %}
|
||||
it's not going to go below 20 degrees today.
|
||||
{% elif 10 < low_temp < 20 %}
|
||||
it might get a little bit chilly.
|
||||
{% elif 0 < low_temp < 10 %}
|
||||
That's cold.
|
||||
{% else %}
|
||||
Absolutely freezing!
|
||||
{% endif %}
