OpenSprinkler Integration for Home Assistant

Version

Last tested on OS API 2.2.0 and Home Assistant 2024.2.0

Features

Binary sensors for station and programs to show running state
Sensors for each station to show status
Sensors for water level, last runtime and rain delay stop time
Switches for each program and station to enable/disable program or station
Switch to enable/disable OpenSprinkler controller operation
Actions to run and stop stations
Action to run programs
Actions to pause, set a rain delay, and set the water level.

To have a Lovelace card for the UI, opensprinkler-card can be used.

Installation

Install using HACS. Or install manually by copying custom_components/opensprinkler folder into <config_dir>/custom_components
Restart Home Assistant.
In the Home Assistant UI, navigate to Configuration then Integrations. Click on the add integration button at the bottom right and select OpenSprinkler. Fill out the options and save.
- URL - Should be in the form of http://<ip or host>:<port>. The port can be omitted unless you have changed it, as the default port for OpenSprinkler is 80. SSL (HTTPS) is also supported.
- Password - The OpenSprinkler controller password.
- Verify SSL Certificate - If the integration should verify the certificate from an HTTPS server. Generally, this should be left checked.
- MAC Address - MAC address of the device. This is only required for firmware below 2.1.9 (4), otherwise it can be left blank.
- Controller Name - The name of the device that appears in Home Assistant.

Upgrading from pre 1.0.0

Note: 1.0.0 has major breaking changes, you will need to update any automations, scripts, etc

Remove YAML configuration.
Uninstall using HACS or delete the hass_opensprinkler folder in <config_dir>/custom_components
Restart Home Assistant
Follow installation instructions above

Breaking Changes

Program binary sensors now show running state instead of operation state. Please use the program switch states for program operation state.
Controller binary sensor is removed. Please use controller switch state for controller operation state.
Station switches now enable/disable instead of run/stop stations. Please use opensprinkler.run_station and opensprinkler.stop actions to run and stop stations.
All scenes are removed. Please use the opensprinkler.run_program action to run programs.

Using Actions

Available actions are opensprinkler.run_program, opensprinkler.run_station, and opensprinkler.run_once to start a program, station, or controller (multiple stations) respectively, and opensprinkler.stop to stop one or all stations.

Note: The action opensprinkler.run is deprecated and will be removed in a future release. Please migrate to one of the above actions, which use the same parameters.

Run Examples

Note: If using a version of Home Assistant prior to 2024.8, substitute the keyword service for action in the following examples.

Run Program Example

action: opensprinkler.run_program
target:
  entity_id: switch.standard_schedule_program_enabled # Any program enabled switch
data: {}

Run Station Example

action: opensprinkler.run_station
data:
  run_seconds: 600 # Number of seconds to run the station. Optional, defaults to 60 seconds.
target:
  entity_id: switch.front_yard_station_enabled # Any station enabled switch

Run Once Program Example

To run a number of stations at once, use opensprinkler.run_once. The run seconds can either be a list of seconds per station or a list or dict of index and seconds pairs. The following examples are all equivalent.

action: opensprinkler.run_once
target:
  entity_id: switch.opensprinkler_enabled # Controller enabled switch
data:
  run_seconds: # List of seconds to run for each station (required)
    - 60
    - 0
    - 30

action: opensprinkler.run_once
target:
  entity_id: switch.opensprinkler_enabled # Controller enabled switch
data:
  run_seconds: # List of station index and run seconds pairs (required)
    - index: 0
      run_seconds: 60
    - index: 2
      run_seconds: 30

action: opensprinkler.run_once
target:
  entity_id: switch.opensprinkler_enabled # Controller enabled switch
data:
  run_seconds: # Dictionary of station index and run seconds key/value pairs (required)
    "0": 60
    "2": 30

Calling opensprinkler.run_once or opensprinkler.run_program will stop all other stations that are running. When using opensprinkler.run_once, you can set continue_running_stations to true to allow the stations to continue running. This only works when specifying the run seconds in index/seconds pairs.

action: opensprinkler.run_once
target:
  entity_id: switch.opensprinkler_enabled # Controller enabled switch
data:
  continue_running_stations: true # Keep running stations running (optional, defaults to false)
  run_seconds:
    - index: 0
      run_seconds: 60
    - index: 2
      run_seconds: 30

action: opensprinkler.run_once
target:
  entity_id: switch.opensprinkler_enabled # Controller enabled switch
data:
  continue_running_stations: true # Keep running stations running (optional, defaults to false)
  run_seconds:
    "0": 60
    "2": 30

Stop Examples

Stop Station Example

action: opensprinkler.stop
data: {}
target:
  entity_id: switch.drip_station_enabled # Any station enabled switch

Stop All Stations Example

action: opensprinkler.stop
data: {}
target:
  entity_id: switch.opensprinkler_enabled # Controller enabled switch

Set Water Level Example

This sets the water level to 50%, i.e. all stations will run half of their normally configured time.

action: opensprinkler.set_water_level
data:
  water_level: 50
target:
  entity_id: switch.opensprinkler_enabled # Controller enabled switch

Set Rain Delay Example

This sets the rain delay of the controller to 6 hours, i.e. all stations will stop and programs will not run until the rain delay time is over.

action: opensprinkler.set_rain_delay
data:
  rain_delay: 6
target:
  entity_id: switch.opensprinkler_enabled # Controller enabled switch

Pause Example

This pauses the station runs for 10 minutes (600 seconds), resuming afterwards.

action: opensprinkler.pause_stations
data:
  pause_duration: 600
target:
  entity_id: switch.opensprinkler_enabled # Controller enabled switch

Reboot Controller Example

This reboots the controller.

action: opensprinkler.reboot
data: {}
target:
  entity_id: switch.opensprinkler_enabled # Controller enabled switch

Creating a Station Switch

If you wish to have a switch for your stations, here is an example using the switch template and input number. Add the following to your YAML configuration (configuration.yaml).

switch:
  - platform: template
    switches:
      fruits_station:
        value_template: "{{ is_state('binary_sensor.front_yard_station_running', 'on') }}"
        turn_on:
          action: opensprinkler.run_station
          target:
            entity_id: switch.front_yard_station_enabled
            # Run seconds uses the input_number below.
          data:
            run_seconds: "{{ ((states('input_number.front_yard_station_minutes') | float) * 60) | int }}"
        turn_off:
          service: opensprinkler.stop
          target:
            entity_id: switch.front_yard_station_enabled

input_number:
  front_yard_station_minutes:
    initial: 1
    min: 1
    max: 10
    step: 1
