Jinja template for Home Assistant for Time

get Current Time from Home Assistant

{% set current_time = states('sensor.time') %}

extract the current hour

{% set hour = current_time.split(':')[0] | int %}

and Minute

{% set minute = current_time.split(':')[1] %}

Say a time appropriate greeting

{% if hour >= 6 and hour < 12 %}
    Good morning!
{% elif hour >= 12 and hour < 18 %}
    Good afternoon!
{% elif hour >= 18 or hour < 6 %}
    Good evening!
{% endif %}

Add AM or PM Suffix for announcement

{% set suffix = 'AM' if hour < 12 else 'PM' %}

convert 24 hour time to 12 hour time

{% set hour_12 = hour if hour <= 12 else hour - 12 %}

Announce the current Time

It's currently {{ hour_12 }}:{{ minute }} {{ suffix }}.

Put it all together:

# get Current Time from Home Assistant
{% set current_time = states('sensor.time') %}
# Split time into hour
{% set hour = current_time.split(':')[0] | int %}
# and Minute
{% set minute = current_time.split(':')[1] %}

# Say a time appropriate greeting
{% if hour >= 6 and hour < 12 %}
    Good morning!
{% elif hour >= 12 and hour < 18 %}
    Good afternoon!
{% elif hour >= 18 or hour < 6 %}
    Good evening!
{% endif %}

# Add AM or PM Suffix
{% set suffix = 'AM' if hour < 12 else 'PM' %}
{% set hour_12 = hour if hour <= 12 else hour - 12 %}

# Announce the current Time
It's currently {{ hour_12 }}:{{ minute }} {{ suffix }}.
