What would you like to do?
Home Assistant script to set an entity's state, used with the IKEA Tradfri remote control.
if 'entity_id' not in data:
logger.warning("===== entity_id is required if you want to set something.")
else:
data = data.copy()
inputEntity = data.pop('entity_id')
inputStateObject = hass.states.get(inputEntity)
if inputStateObject:
inputState = inputStateObject.state
inputAttributesObject = inputStateObject.attributes.copy()
else:
inputState = 'unknown'
inputAttributesObject = {}
if 'state' in data:
inputState = data.pop('state')
logger.debug("===== new attrs: {}".format(data))
inputAttributesObject.update(data)
hass.states.set(inputEntity, inputState, inputAttributesObject)

Interesting use case. If you set the state in HA under the Development panel does it revert? Testing that would either confirm it's the python script or rule it out. Also does the Log book or logs show anything?

Yes. I have tested under dev tool. It behave same.
And just checked logs, no any logs shows about this.
Current log level set to debug.
Please advise how should I troubleshoot this.
