Define shortcut like actions.

[mmierke]

I would like to be able to define actions that are like the shortcuts defined in ther Dreame App, but more capable.
I have a multilayer map and a x40. My base is located on the ground floor. The robot is located in the base.

The action to clean the 1st floor should do something like this:

• Refill the watertank and pickup the mop
• Move the robot to a predefined spot on the map
• Wait to be picked up and be moved to the 1st floor
  After being placed on the 1st floor and user response
• change the map to 1st-floor
• perform the cleaning sequence
• return to the entry point and wait to be picked up
  After being placed on the ground floor and user response
• switch the map
• return to the base

Any ideas on how to make that happen?

Got your point. I'm new to the dreame world and I was looking for a practical example. That solution would be somehow a script is obvious.

So how would a script handle the 1st two task? How could a script wait for user response?

You should start with eliminating the actions cannot be done by the app like Refill the watertank and pickup the mop.
Then you should perform the actions manually from the app and watch the HA logbook events to see which entity values are changed to what.
Finally you should check the services and entities docs and find out which services do you need to call on your script. You will be needing entity services for modifying their values so should should also checkout that.

You need to all this work yourself and cannot expect anyone to write a script for you to just copy and paste.

I don't want anybody to write my scripts. I just wanted to discuss an idea on how to utilize your extension in a specific way.

And maybe get some advice.
