A collection of useful nodes to help with time based automation.
Despite the large number of timer nodes available for node red i never found one i was satisfied with. Some were far too simple and others way too complicated. In the end i made my own which are indended to be reliable & easy to use with a clean design.
Timer Node
Daily on/off timer node that supports fixed times of the day or sun events. Useful for setting timers such as lights that go on when its dark and off of at a fixed time.
Time Check Node
Time check node for testing if a time (default current time) is within the set range including sun events. The original message is forwarded to different outputs based on pass/fail.
Schedule Node
Set events for a weekly schedule using a visual calendar. Useful for schedules such as heating where you have a morning time, evening time and these may vary at the weekend.
Activity Node
Handle time based activity events with timeouts, extensions & resets. Useful for controlling devices based on presence sensors or similar use cases.
If you like/use this node, coffee makes me happy and it keeps me coding when i should be sleeping...
