Enable job_complete > idle state change based on binary_sensor door switch

Open millercentral opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

I'm playing with v3 of this awesome template. I do have a feature request: I'd like to specify a binary_sensor (door sensor) to impact the state machine:

  • if the door opens while state is job_complete, then change the state to idle (ie, clean clothes/dishes were dealt with). I would rather use this than a timer, so I can keep notifying periodically until the door is opened.
  • if the door opens while state is job_running then change state to paused. If state is paused and door closes, set state back to job_running. I realize this is a different use for the paused state (but overloads don't apply to my situation), so I understand if this goes against the design and can't be implemented.
  • It would also be nice to have a built in method to do recurring actions every n minutes while state is job_complete.

Thanks for considering!
