<p>This release is big. Until now, our automations and scripts have been very static. Starting today it should all be a bit more dynamic.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><strong>Scripts</strong> are now available in automations and when responding to Alexa/Amazon Echo. Both of these components will now expose data to be used in script templates (including <code>from_state</code> !). Passing data to script entities is available by passing the data to the script services.</p>

<p>Two weeks has past so here is 0.15! We have been focussing a lot on quality. Making sure the system is more stable and reliable. I usually try to highlight one cool thing in the release notes but this release has 4 exciting announcements!</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li><a href="https://github.com/fabaff">@fabaff</a> has upgraded the codebase to follow the PEP257 documentation standard.</li>
|
||||
<li><a href="https://github.com/PartOfTheThing">@partofthething</a> has migrated us to use the main Python Open Z-Wave library instead of our forked version.</li>
|
||||
<li>To make our automations more powerful, <a href="https://github.com/persandstrom">@persandstrom</a> added the option to use templates to dynamically create service calls. This works for automation, Alexa, universal media player, template switch. <a href="/topics/service_calls/#use-templates-to-decide-which-service-to-call">Learn more.</a></li>
|
||||
<li><a href="https://github.com/MartinHjelmare">@MartinHjelmare</a> has upgraded our scene support to now support all built-in services and components.</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Besides bug fixes, this release also brings:</p>

<h3>Breaking Changes</h3>
|
||||
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Media Player: Attributes to call service play_media has been renamed to<br />
|
||||
<code>media_content_type</code> and <code>media_content_id</code>, to match the corresponding media<br />
|
||||
player state attributes. This change affects automations, scripts and scenes.</li>
