on GitHub

Breaking changes

• Alert2 now prohibits creating two alerts that would alias to the same HA entity_id. For example, if one specifies a name using umlautes (eg ä, ö, ü) and the other doesn't. So now you should be able to rely on an alert producing the entity_id you expect, without a _2 or _3 appended to it.

Changes

• Notifier fields now support notify entities. So you can now say for example notifier: notify.telegram_bot_xxx_yyy. Notifications are sent to them using notify.send_message. NOTE that notify.send_message currently only supports the message and title fields. You can't yet set e.g. a data field using notify entities.
• reminder_message can now access a function, get_message() that renders the message field. This is useful if you want to set your reminder message to contain the original message without duplicating config code.
• Add alert2.get_display_msg action to on-demand render an entity's display_msg field.
• You can now set a default reminder_message.
• Fix bug where deleting alerts via the UI sometimes didn't work if there was no YAML alert2 config.
