`id` as an attribute identifier only
I'm trying to set the state of a shortcut button on Spotify which plays playlists.
Spotify exposes the current playing playlist as media_playlist
as the name of the playlist, not the ID, so currently there is no way for the state of the
What I'm proposing is to designate id
as the state of the shortcut, where it must match the attribute, but should not be used for playlist. Currently, when attribute:
cannot be used alongside type: service
.
If a shortcut button calls a service, instead of...
shortcuts:
buttons:
- icon: 'mdi:sunglasses'
id: media_player.play_media
type: service
data:
entity_id: media_player.spotify
media_content_id: 'spotify:playlist:xxxxx'
media_content_type: playlist
My proposal:
shortcuts:
attribute: media_playlist
buttons:
- icon: 'mdi:sunglasses'
id: Dr Disrespect
type: service
service_name: media_player.play_media
data:
entity_id: media_player.spotify
media_content_id: 'spotify:playlist:xxxxx'
media_content_type: playlist
*_name
for other types such as playlist
or script
.
@kalkih Hi. I have another case with a script where I pass the media URL as a variable:
shortcuts:
attribute: media_content_id
buttons:
- name: Radio Relax
icon: 'mdi:panda'
type: script
id: play_radio
data:
entity_id: media_player.bathroom
radio_url: 'http://ic7.101.ru:8000/v13_1'
So I need to compare media_content_id attribute not with id of the button, but with a variable of script. Could you suggest a solution, please?
