LaMetric Notify

The lametric notification platform allows to send notification to a LaMetric device. It needs the LaMetric platform to be configured first.

To enable LaMetric notifications in your installation, add the following to your configuration.yaml file:

# Example configuration.yaml entry
notify:
  name: NOTIFIER_NAME
  platform: lametric

Configuration Variables

name

(string)(Optional)The optional parameter name allows multiple notifiers to be created. The notifier will bind to the service notify.NOTIFIER_NAME.

Default value: notify

lifetime

(int)(Optional)Defines how long the message remains in LaMetric notification queue (in seconds).

Default value: 10

icon

(string)(Optional)An icon or animation.

cycles

(int)(Optional)Defines how often the notification is displayed.

Default value: 1

Check out the list of all icons at https://developer.lametric.com/icons. Note that icons always begin with “i” while animations begin with “a”. This is part of the name, you can’t just use the number!

Examples

Changing sounds and icons

To add a notification sound or an icon override, it has to be done via service data.

- alias: "Send notification on arrival at school"
  trigger:
    platform: state
    entity_id: device_tracker.son_mobile
    from: 'not_home'
    to: 'school'
  action:
    service: notify.lametric
    data:
      message: "Son has arrived at school!"
      data:
        sound: 'notification'
        icon: 'i51'
