NEST style thermostat with: temperature week scheduler, countdown and manual mode

This project is an integration of these:

• NEST style thermostat Dashboard widget for Node-red
• A Thermostat Weekend
• Temperature/ON-OFF Week Scheduler UI-Template Node-Red Dashboard
• TOP 3 Countdown Timer
• node-red-contrib-mytimeout

This widget allows you to control the climate element of the Home Assistant, expanding its functionality.

• Three different options for setting up the thermostat:
  • Week Scheduler (with Away mode)
  • Countdown
  • Manual
• State report through a NEST style thermostat:
  • OFF
  • ON
    • Idle
    • Heat
    • Away mode (that limits the maximum temperature)
• Chart

1. Install node-red-contrib-mytimeout & node-red-contrib-moment

2. Download the flow, then go to your node-red application and press import > cliboard and finally select the file downloaded. Two versions available:

   • flowEN.json --> English language
   • flowIT.json --> Italian language

3. Modify the Properties Server (ex: Home Assistant) and Entity Id (ex: climate.termostato) of the following nodes:

   • Climate
   • Away from Alarm
   • svc: climate:set_temperature
   • svc: climate:turn_off
   • svc: climate:turn_on

   These nodes are highlighted in the flow by the comment "Set this" ().

4. Deploy and enjoy!

(!!!) There is a UI bug in the node-red/node-red-dashboard 2.27.0 (Node-RED Home Assistant Addon v8.0.1): UI dropdown - Unable to set a preselected option --> Fixed in node-red/node-red-dashboard 2.28.0 (Node-RED Home Assistant Addon v8.1.2)
