Program Finished trigger

[alexeiw123]

Hi, Thanks for this integration. I've been using the included integration for a while and have been struggling to get completion automations working consistently across both the washer and dryer. Very excited to get this one working and see more reliable entities to use.

I see in the readme:
"Program Started" and "Program Finished" events are exposed as triggers for easier building of automation scripts.

Where do I see these and how do I use them in automations? I set an event listener for home_connect_alt_event for a whole washing cycle and got the below when the cycle started, but no event when the cycle finished?

I can built a state trigger from Run to Ready but it seems like that may trigger under other conditions.

I know this is a basic question, appreciate your help.

event_type: home_connect_alt_event
data:
  device_id: <cut>
  key: BSH.Common.Status.OperationState
  value: BSH.Common.EnumType.OperationState.Run
origin: LOCAL
time_fired: "2022-08-13T23:20:29.602495+00:00"
context:
  id: <cut>
  parent_id: null
  user_id: null

In your automation you should select Trigger Type: "Device", then select your appliance and then select in "Trigger" either "Program Started" or "Program Finished"

Oh wow, look at that! I was way over thinking it. I didn't realise that those triggers existed, I always though of triggers as the 'trigger ID' that you can assign within automations only. Thank you, this is too convenient.
