Distinguish between weekdays and weekends

[clipse2004]

Hi,

tell me is it somehow possible to define the schedules a little more precisely?
I would like that my light is switched a little differently on the weekend. So in a different brightness level at a different time, is that somehow possible?

Thx!

Ah interesting idea...! Nope that is something new :D I will think about that and how it may be implemented 👍 Thanks!

I have a similar request: even more fine-grained control of the weekday.

In our household, one of us is a teacher and has to be at school at different times. On some days they have to be at school before the first lesson, which means waking up quite early. On these days we want the lights that are normally set to "sunrise" to actually be much earlier.

Here's my off-the-cuff idea about how to implement it:

Perhaps add an optional weekday field to the daytimes object?

  daytimes:
    - { name: morning, starttime: sunrise, light: scene.bathroom_bright }
    - { name: morning, starttime: "05:00", light: scene.bathroom_bright, weekdays: [monday, thursday] }

The idea being if the "name" is the same across entries, then the "most specific" wins. If an entry is ambiguous (a tie), then the first entry in the daytimes list wins.
