Hello,
First of all, thank you for this excellent blueprint!
I wanted to share my use case, as I'm among those who use the Night Alarm feature. In my setup, the alarm is automatically armed and disarmed based on time and specific conditions. I’ve reviewed #29 and #28, and in my case, I prefer having a distinct "night" mode. This is because the keypad is close to the bedrooms, and I don’t want it announcing "Home and armed" or "Disarmed" while my children are asleep. However, I still appreciate the visual indicator (red icon) to remind me the alarm is active when I open the door late at night.
Here's how I've adjusted the automation to fit my needs:
armed_nightandarmed_vacation, which are mapped to the existing handlers (armed_homeandarmed_away) to keep the logic simple and avoid over-complication.armed_homeanddisarmhandlers to adjust the volume based on normal or night modes.Note: Since Home Assistant is transitioning from "service" to "action" syntax, I've refactored the automation to align with this update.
Don't hesitate to try it and give some feedback! 😊
