I am quite happy with the way I have my lights automated at the moment. And now I have a reasonable stable device tracker, so my next step would to switch off all lights when no one is at home. The only thing that stops me from doing that, is when someone comes back home, I want to have the lights switched on as it would have been if no one would have left. And I have no idea how I would implement that.
Probably all the lights automation rules should have some logic in there looking at that device tracker. So that as soon as the rule is triggered it can do so only of someone is at home, or it triggers if someone just got home. This will make all the rules much more complex than they already are. Is there not a more simple way of doing this?
I would like to have some kind of layer in between that enables the lights based on the device tracker. The lighting automation rules will continue to work as usual, and this extra layer will allow the lights to really switch on or off depending on the device tracker. Would that be easy to implement?
