## 1. What it is & how it works
|
||||
|
||||
| Component | Purpose | What it does |
|
||||
|-----------|---------|--------------|
|
||||
| **sunrise‑simulation** (script) | The “engine” that gradually lights up (or down) your bulbs | Uses a `repeat` loop to turn the selected lights on/off and slowly increase/decrease brightness over a configurable time span. |
|
||||
| **sunrise‑alarm** (automation) | The “scheduler” that calls the simulation at a chosen time | Triggers the script at *Alarm Time – Offset* (e.g. 30 min before the clock). An `input_boolean` lets you switch the alarm on/off. |
|
||||
|
||||
> **Why two separate blueprints?**
|
||||
> The simulation can be reused in any scenario (e.g. a “morning routine” or a “sunset‑in‑30‑min” routine). The alarm automation is a thin wrapper that turns that simulation into a timed alarm.
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## 2. Installation
|
||||
|
||||
### 2.1 sunrise‑simulation
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Import the blueprint**
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
<div>
|
||||
<a href="https://my.home-assistant.io/redirect/blueprint_import/?blueprint_url=https://git.jaroszew.ski/patrick/ha-sunrise-alarm/raw/branch/main/sunrise-simulation.yaml">
|
||||
<img src="https://my.home-assistant.io/badges/blueprint_import.svg" alt="Import sunrise‑simulation">
|
||||
</a>
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Create a script from the blueprint**
|
||||
* In the “Create new script” dialog, name it **`sunrise-simulation`** (you can give any name you like).
|
||||
* You’ll be asked for a handful of variables – see section 3.1 for the defaults and meaning.
|
||||
* Click **Create** – Home‑Assistant will add a script entity called `script.sunrise-simulation` (or whatever name you gave it).
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### 2.2 sunrise‑alarm
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Import the alarm automation blueprint**
|
||||
|
||||
<div>
|
||||
<a href="https://my.home-assistant.io/redirect/blueprint_import/?blueprint_url=https://git.jaroszew.ski/patrick/ha-sunrise-alarm/raw/branch/main/sunrise-alarm.yaml">
|
||||
<img src="https://my.home-assistant.io/badges/blueprint_import.svg" alt="Import sunrise‑alarm">
|
||||
</a>
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Create the automation**
|
||||
* Pick an `input_datetime` that represents the clock you want to use as the alarm.
|
||||
* Pick an `input_boolean` that toggles the alarm on or off.
|
||||
* Choose a `offset_duration`
|
||||
* Choose the `sunrise‑simulation` script you created in the previous step for the `alarm_script` field.
|
||||
* Save – you now have a ready‑to‑run alarm!
|
||||
|
||||
> **Tip** – If you want a *sunset* alarm, simply copy the `sunrise‑simulation` script (or create a new script from the blueprint if you want to define a different arc) and reverse it by setting direction with the `reversed` flag set to `true`. You'll also want to create a new automation that calls it with a negative `offset_duration`.

||||

||||
|
||||
## 2.3 Configurable variables
|
||||
|
||||
### 3.1 sunrise‑simulation script variables
|
||||
|
||||
| Variable | Type | Default | Description |
|
||||
|----------|------|---------|-------------|
|
||||
| `lights` | list of `entity_id`s | `["light.kitchen"]` | All bulbs that should be part of the arc. |
|
||||
| `total_duration` | integer | `30` | Total time the arc takes on minutes. |
|
||||
| `steps` | integer | `10` | How many brightness steps the script performs. If your light(s) do not support `transition` you should set this higher for a more gradual change (max value is 100). |
|
||||
| `start_brightness` | integer | `0` | Brightness percentage at the very beginning of the arc. |
|
||||
| `end_brightness` | integer | `100` | Brightness percentage at the very end of the arc. |
|
||||
| `start_temp` | integer | `2000` | Color temperature (kelvin) at the very beginning of the arc. |
|
||||
| `end_temp` | integer | `5000` | Color temperature (kelvin) at the very end of the arc. |
|
||||
| `reversed` | boolean | `false` | If `true`, the script will run your arc in reverse (useful for easily defining sunsets). |
|
||||
| `curve_type` | string | `sigmoid` | `linear`, `parabolic` (quadratic), or `sigmoid` (an S-curve). As we don't perceive light intensity linearly, `sigmoid` or `parabolic` make for a more natural curve.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### 3.2 sunrise‑alarm automation variables
|
||||
|
||||
| Variable | Type | Default | Description |
|
||||
|----------|------|---------|-------------|
|
||||
| `alarm_time` | `input_datetime` | — | The time you want the alarm to ring (e.g. `07:00 AM`). |
|
||||
| `offset_duration` | `time` | `"00:30:00"` | How many minutes after `alarm_time` the sunrise arc should start. A negative value would start **before** the alarm. |
|
||||
| `alarm_enabled` | `input_boolean` | — | A switch that turns the whole alarm on/off. |
|
||||
| `sunrise_script` | `script` | — | The script instance created by the `sunrise‑simulation` blueprint (`script.sunrise-simulation`). |
|
||||
|
||||
The automation uses the following logic:
|
||||
|
||||
1. `Alarm Time – Offset` fires the automation.
|
||||
2. If `Alarm Enabled` is `on`, it calls the sunrise script.
|
||||
3. If `Alarm Enabled` is `off`, nothing happens.
