Scripts
The script
integration allows users to specify a sequence of actions to be executed by Open Peer Power. These are run when you turn the script on. The script integration will create an entity for each script and allow them to be controlled via services.
Configuration
The sequence of actions is specified using the Open Peer Power Script Syntax.

Passing variables to scripts
As part of the service, variables can be passed along to a script so they become available within templates in that script.
There are two ways to achieve this. One way is using the generic script.turn_on
service. To pass variables to the script with this service, call it with the desired variables:
The other way is calling the script as a service directly. In this case, all service data will be made available as variables. If we apply this approach on the script above, it would look like this:
Using the variables in the script requires the use of data_template
:
In the Overview
Scripts in the Overview panel will be displayed with an EXECUTE button if the device has no delay:
or wait:
statement, and as a toggle switch if it has either of those.
This is to enable you to stop a running script.
