Home Assistant Jinja 2 Templating to announce some inside Temperatures

Back to README

This process is fairly simple. We don't need to iterate over arrays or anything like that unless we want to get complicated.

For my use case and for the YouTube Video, I chose to read out the temperatures in 4 rooms: This table shows the rooms and the sensor ID's I chose, your smart home will differ.

Dining Room sensor.temperature_dining Aqara Temperature and Humidity Sensor
Lounge Room sensor.lounge_ac_inside_temperature Temperature Sensor built into my Loungeroom Air Conditioner
Office sensor.temperature_office Aqara Temperature and Humidity Sensor
Master Bedroom sensor.master_bedroom_purifier_temperature Temp and Humidity Sensor built into my XiaoMi Air Purifier

You should choose the data points that matter the most to you. You can add humidity data if you want

The code to announce the states.

Inside it's currently {{ states('sensor.temperature_dining') }} °C in the Dining Room, 
{{ states('sensor.lounge_ac_inside_temperature') }} °C in the Lounge, 
{{ states('sensor.temperature_office')}} °C in the office,
and {{ states('sensor.master_bedroom_purifier_temperature') }} °C in the Master Bedroom.

TO-DO

After setting this up, I've realised the better way to handle this would be to create an Array of dictionaries containing the Room Name, and the temperatures, then iterating through the array for the announcement.
