v2.0.1

Scene Sequencer 2.0.1

Breaking Changes

• Service usage changed from stateless payloads to config-entry based sequencers.
• Existing automations and scripts that call cycle with a scenes list directly must be updated.
• Sequencer behavior is now driven by per-entry configuration in the UI:
  • Name
  • On scenes
  • Optional off scene
  • Optional timeout
  • Transition
• Service targeting now uses entry_id or name instead of passing full scene lists each call.

Migration Required

1. Open Home Assistant Integrations and create a Scene Sequencer entry for each sequence you want.
2. Configure:
   • Name
   • On scenes in order
   • Off scene (optional)
   • Timeout (optional when off scene is not used)
   • Transition
3. Update automations and scripts:
   • Old style: cycle call with scenes and go_to_last_timeout payload
   • New style: cycle, scene_on, or scene_off targeting a configured entry by entry_id or name
4. Remove old automations that still pass raw sequence payloads.

New Features

• Config Flow and Options Flow support for creating and editing sequencers in the UI.
• New services:
  • scene_on
  • scene_off
  • cycle (kept)
• Service target by entry_id or name.
• Improved synchronization when scenes are shared across multiple sequencer entries.
• Better handling of internal versus external scene.turn_on events.
• Persisted sequencer state across Home Assistant restarts.
• Expanded localization support.

Fixes and Improvements

• Timeout handling refined and reset behavior improved on service calls.
• More robust sequencing transitions, including last on scene to off scene and return to first on scene.
• Logging improved with clearer debug and warning paths.
• Reliability and UX improvements based on live Home Assistant validation.

Notes

• This is a major release because migration is required, updating automations is mandatory.
