I'm off to bed...

Further to my post about the sensors I have, I thought I would share my off to bed routine. While this is written in home assistant, I have ported this over from Openhab.

The first stage is a google routine called "I'm off to bed", as that is my voice prompt. This does a few actions straight off the bat . It turns off my home theater setup, sets a toggle helper on home assistant and reminds me to brush my teeth. At this point, nothing further happens.

Once I am actually ready to head to bed, I walk up my stairs, which triggers an Aqara motion sensor at the top. There is a separate home assistant routine that turns on the light when motion is detected and the light level is dim. Once motion is detected, home assistant matches the trigger with the condition that the off to bed helper is on. If everything is in place, the lights downstairs all switch off. The lights in my bedroom now switch on, the bedroom blind now closes if it was open and the helper resets.

In future, I may improve this routine by adding detection for my going in to the bathroom and / or using my toothbrush before going to bed for an extra prompt.

The code in home assistant looks like this:
