Animated awning icon for Home Assistant

Retracted keeps the fabric rolled in the cassette, extended shades the window with the valance rippling in the breeze, and moving rolls the fabric in and out; the cassette LED shows green when out and blinks amber while moving.

3 states: retracted, extended and moving. Part of the other icons in the Animara Full Pack.

States of the awning icon

The card picks the state from your entity, so the icon always shows what the awning is doing.

  • RetractedResting state, shown when the device is off or idle.
  • Extended
  • Moving

Which Home Assistant entities fit

  • cover entities with device class awning are detected as this icon automatically.
  • Picked automatically when the entity or device name contains "awning", "markise", on cover, switch, input_boolean, binary_sensor or sensor entities.
  • Any entity that is simply on or off, such as a switch or input_boolean: on shows extended, off shows retracted. Entity states named like a state below (for example moving) are used directly.
  • Works with any entity whose state you map: pick this icon in the card and map your entity's own state words to these states with the card's states: option.
