FR multi-room select

viomi.vacuum.v7 and maybe viomi.vacuum.v6 support multi-room cleaning by define rooms count and rooms ids like: miiocli -d vacuum --ip <ip> --token <toke> raw_command set_mode_withroom [0,1,3,9,10,11] 3rd pram of set_mode_withroom is room_array_len and next are room ids.

It would be great to have feature to select(by longpress) rooms(action icons) and than fire event by start button.

For now alternative is using original Mi Home or have multi input_boolean and some logic to generate set_mode_withroom params

@noorbertt The map color is set in the configuration.yaml which I have added to my post above. I’m using the built-in dark theme of Home Assistant.

You can easily create your own multi-room setup with a bit of configuration and use the vacuum-card only for monitoring or finer control. This is how it looks for me:

View without ony room selected	View with three rooms selected	View once cleaning has started

You can select or deselect each configured room individually. The button state changes to indicate selection. Once ready, you can hit the start button in the top left. The vacuum then starts to clean only those rooms. The map helps you to follow progress. The start button changes state to a stop button. If you click that, cleaning stops and the vacuum returns to the dock. The state of the room buttons is returned to unselected automatically, once the vacuum has docked.

To do this, I have defined toggle helpers for each room and put those into a group:

groups.yaml:

cleaning_rooms:
  name: Räume zum reinigen
  entities:
      - input_boolean.clean_bedroom
      - input_boolean.clean_corridor
      - input_boolean.clean_dining_area
      - input_boolean.clean_guest_toilet
      - input_boolean.clean_kids_room
      - input_boolean.clean_living_room
      - input_boolean.clean_master_bath
      - input_boolean.clean_study

The input_boolean themselves are defined in the HA interface under helpers:

To render the buttons in Lovelace, I use custom:button-card with a bit of templating:

type: vertical-stack
cards:
  - type: horizontal-stack
    cards:
      - type: 'custom:button-card'
        template: buttons
        entity: vacuum.xiaomi_vacuum_cleaner
        show_name: false
        show_state: true
        icon: 'mdi:play'
        tap_action:
          action: call-service
          service: script.start_vacuum_room_cleaning
        state:
          - value: cleaning
            id: activated_state
            icon: 'mdi:stop'
            styles:
              state:
                - color: 'var(--mmp-accent-color, var(--accent-color))'
                - font-weight: bold
      - type: 'custom:button-card'
        template: buttons
        entity: input_boolean.clean_bedroom
        name: Schlafzimmer
      - type: 'custom:button-card'
        template: buttons
        entity: input_boolean.clean_master_bath
        name: Elternbad
  - type: horizontal-stack
    cards:
      - type: 'custom:button-card'
        template: buttons
        entity: input_boolean.clean_living_room
        name: Wohnzimmer
      - type: 'custom:button-card'
        template: buttons
        entity: input_boolean.clean_dining_area
        name: Essbereich
      - type: 'custom:button-card'
        template: buttons
        entity: input_boolean.clean_corridor
        name: Flur
  - type: horizontal-stack
    cards:
      - type: 'custom:button-card'
        template: buttons
        entity: input_boolean.clean_kids_room
        name: Leo's Zimmer
      - type: 'custom:button-card'
        template: buttons
        entity: input_boolean.clean_study
        name: Arbeitszimmer
      - type: 'custom:button-card'
        template: buttons
        entity: input_boolean.clean_guest_toilet
        name: Gästebad

The templates go into the Lovelace configuration and look like this:

button_card_templates:
  activated_state:
    state:
      - id: activated_state
        styles:
          card:
            - background-color: var(--primary-text-color)
            - color: var(--card-background-color)
          name:
            - color: 'var(--mmp-accent-color, var(--accent-color))'
            - font-weight: bold
          icon:
            - color: 'var(--mmp-accent-color, var(--accent-color))'
  buttons:
    template: activated_state
    aspect_ratio: 1/1
    color: var(--paper-item-icon-color)
    tap_action:
      action: toggle
      haptic: medium
    state:
      - value: 'on'
        id: activated_state
    styles:
      card:
        - '--mdc-ripple-color': black
        - '--mdc-press-opacity': 0.5
        - font-size: var(--paper-font-body1_-_font-size)
        - padding-bottom: 10px

No worries, this is not needed for the functionality here but I just show it for completeness. The room buttons toggle themselves, but the start button needs some logic with a script and more templating:

alias: Toggle vacuum room cleaning
sequence:
  - choose:
      - conditions:
          - condition: state
            entity_id: vacuum.xiaomi_vacuum_cleaner
            state: cleaning
        sequence:
          - service: vacuum.stop
            data:
              entity_id: vacuum.xiaomi_vacuum_cleaner
          - delay: '3'
          - service: vacuum.return_to_base
            data:
              entity_id: vacuum.xiaomi_vacuum_cleaner
      - conditions:
          - condition: state
            entity_id: group.cleaning_rooms
            state: 'off'
        sequence:
          - service: vacuum.start
            data: {}
            entity_id: vacuum.xiaomi_vacuum_cleaner
    default:
      - service: xiaomi_miio.vacuum_clean_segment
        data:
          entity_id: vacuum.xiaomi_vacuum_cleaner
          segments: >
            {% set rooms = expand('group.cleaning_rooms')
                | selectattr('state','eq','on')
                | map(attribute='object_id') | list %}
            {%  set mapper = {
              'clean_dining_area': 20,
              'clean_bedroom': 17,
              'clean_master_bath': 16,
              'clean_living_room': 18,
              'clean_kids_room': 21,
              'clean_study': 19,
              'clean_corridor': 22,
              'clean_guest_toilet': 4 } %}
            {% set ns = namespace(segments=[]) %}
            {% for room in rooms if room in mapper %}
              {% set ns.segments = ns.segments + [mapper[room]] %}
            {% endfor %} {{ ns.segments }}    
mode: single
icon: 'mdi:play'

Please note that if you hit the start button without any room selected, the whole house gets cleaned. Also note, that the vacuum.return_to_base service for me didn’t work during cleaning. It only stopped the vacuum but didn’t return it to base. I first had to stop it, wait a bit and then call the return service. Finally, please note that grouping the input_booleans is important here for the template to work when compiling the list of segments to clean. The mapper is needed to translate the input_boolean into the segment numbers.

Finally, I use an automation to reset the input_booleans once the vacuum has returned to its dock. Here, once more the group comes in handy:

alias: Reset cleaning rooms
description: Nach dem staubsaugen die zu reinigenden Räume zurücksetzen
trigger:
  - platform: state
    entity_id: vacuum.xiaomi_vacuum_cleaner
    to: docked
condition: []
action:
  - service: homeassistant.turn_off
    data: {}
    entity_id: group.cleaning_rooms
mode: single

I hope this helps you guys while we hope for native support by vacuum-card.
