Home Assistant has a built-in component called `device_sun_light_trigger` to help you automate your lights. The component will:
* Fade in the lights when the sun is setting and there are people home
* Turn on the lights when people get home after the sun has set
* Turn off the lights when all people leave the house
This component requires the components [sun]({{site_root/components/sun.html}}), [device_tracker]({{site_root}}/components/device_tracker.html) and [light]({{site_root}}/components/light.html) to be enabled.
To enable this component, add the following lines to your `home-assistant.conf`:
```
[device_sun_light_trigger]
# Specify a specific light/group of lights that has to be turned on
light_group=group.living_room
# Specify which light profile to use when turning lights on
light_profile=relax
# Disable lights being turned off when everybody leaves the house
disable_turn_off=1
```
The options `light_group`, `light_profile` and `disable_turn_off` are optional.
