Interval Component
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
This component allows you to run actions at fixed time intervals. For example, if you want to toggle a switch every
|
|
minute, you can use this component. Please note that it's possible to achieve the same thing with the
|
|
:ref:`time.on_time <time-on_time>` trigger, but this technique is more light-weight and user-friendly.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: yaml
|
|
|
|
# Example configuration entry
|
|
interval:
|
|
- interval: 1min
|
|
then:
|
|
- switch.toggle: relay_1
|
|
|
|
|
|
If a startup delay is configured, the first execution of the actions will not occur before at least that time after boot.
|
|
|
|
Configuration variables:
|
|
************************
|
|
|
|
- **interval** (**Required**, :ref:`config-time`): The interval to execute the action with.
|
|
- **startup_delay** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-time`): An optional startup delay - defaults to zero.
|
|
- **then** (**Required**, :ref:`Action <config-action>`): The action to perform.
