The input_text component allows the user to define values that can be controlled via the frontend and can be used within conditions of automation. Changes to the value stored in the text box generate state events. These state events can be utilized as automation triggers as well.
# Example configuration.yaml entries
input_text:
text1:
name: Text 1
initial: Some Text
text2:
name: Text 2
min: 8
max: 40
text3:
name: Text 3
pattern: '[a-fA-F0-9]*'
test4:
name: Text 4
initial: Can't Touch This
disabled: true

0. - max (Optional): Maximum length for the text value. Default is
100. - name (Optional): Friendly name of the text input.
