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, device_tracker and light to be enabled.
To enable this component, add the following lines to your configuration.yaml:
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.
