<img src='/images/screenshots/logbook.png' style='margin-left:10px; float: right;' height="100" /> The logbook component provides a different perspective on the history of your house by showing all the changes that happened to your house in reverse chronological order. [See the demo for a live example](/demo/).
|
|
|
|
To enable the logbook in your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# Example configuration.yaml entry
|
|
logbook:
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
It is possible to add custom entries to the logbook by using the script component to fire an event.
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# Example configuration.yaml entry
|
|
script:
|
|
add_logbook_entry:
|
|
alias: Add Logbook
|
|
sequence:
|
|
- event: LOGBOOK_ENTRY
|
|
event_data:
|
|
name: Kitchen
|
|
message: is being used
|
|
# Optional
|
|
entity_id: light.kitchen
|
|
domain: light
|
|
```
