This is a fork of the SimpleMobileTools Simple Clock application. I have added broadcast events to alarms for home automation purposes, the broadcasts are called silent alarms.

A silent alarm is a non audible alarm, represented as a broadcast to the system which can be processed by other applications such as Tasker, Easer, Broadcast to mqtt or other tools for scenarios such as home automation.

• "Silent alarms"
• "Alter, create and disable/enable alarms using intents via ADB or apps like Tasker

Forward broadcasts and the respective payload to an mqtt broker and have your smart home such as home assistant react to your alarms dynamically with automations such as:

• Trigger a wakeup light before the audible alarm rings
• Trigger a wakeup routine once the audible alarm rings
• Have automated actions if you use the snooze button to often :-)
• ...

• I am not responsible, if the app messes up and you are late for anything ;)

Usage is generally intended with other companion apps such as Broadcast2mqtt, Tasker or Easer.

Following broadcasts are emitted:

• com.simplemobiletools.ALARM_SET : when a new Alarm is created.
• com.simplemobiletools.ALARM_GOING_TO_RING : when a silent alarm is triggered - only if the main alarm is enabled.
• com.simplemobiletools.ALARM_IS_ACTIVE when an audible alarm is active.
• com.simplemobiletools.ALARM_SNOOZED when an audible alarm has been snoozed.
• com.simplemobiletools.ALARM_DISABLED when an audible alarm has been disabled.

All broadcasts contain the same payload with the attributes:

• label
• hours
• minutes
• days
• id

Silent alarms

• have their own id
• have the same label as the calling alarm
• do not emit broadcasts

Configuration example using the app broadcast2mqtt

This app listens for intents sent to "android.intent.action.SEND" to the package "com.simplemobiletools.clock". The alarm id can be obtained in the UI after storing the alarm the first time.

Following modes options are supported:

INSERT: Create new alarm

UPDATE: Modify existing alarm

DISABLE: Disable alarm

ENABLE: Enable alarm

MODE: INSERT

adb shell am start -a android.intent.action.SEND -t text/plain --es MODE INSERT --es LABEL "NEW_TEST_INTENT_LABEL_2" --ei "HOURS" 25 --ei "MINUTES" 65 com.simplemobiletools.clock

MODE: UPDATE

adb shell am start -a android.intent.action.SEND -t text/plain  --ei ALARM_ID 1 --es MODE UPDATE --es LABEL "NEW_TEST_INTENT_LABEL_3" --ei HOURS 25 --ei "MINUTES" 65 com.simplemobiletools.clock

MODE: ENABLE/DISABLE

adb shell am start -a android.intent.action.SEND -t text/plain  --ei ALARM_ID 1 --es MODE DISABLE com.simplemobiletools.clock

In Tasker, create a "new intent" action in the "Tasks" section with the config as shown in the image below.

- alias: 'Wake up light'
  trigger:
    - platform: mqtt
      topic: 'android/broadcast/redmi-note-3'
  condition:
    condition: and
    conditions:
      - condition: template
        value_template: '{{ "ALARM_GOING_TO_RING" in trigger.payload_json.action }}'
      - condition: template
        value_template: '{{ "get_up_work" in trigger.payload_json.label }}'    
  action:
    - service: script.sunrise

This automation is triggered as soon as I disable the Alarm displayed when it is ringing on the phone. Again the conditions are a MQTT message containing the action "ALARM_DISABLED" with the alarm label "get_up_work".

- alias: 'Alarm power on morning devices'
  trigger:
    - platform: mqtt
      topic: 'android/broadcast/redmi-note-3'
  condition:
    condition: and
    conditions:
      - condition: template
        value_template: '{{ "ALARM_DISABLED" in trigger.payload_json.action }}'
      - condition: template
        value_template: '{{ "get_up_work" in trigger.payload_json.label }}'
  action:
    - service: input_select.select_option
      data:
        entity_id: input_select.select_activity
        option: "Nicht gesetzt"
    - service: input_select.select_option
      data:
        entity_id: input_select.select_activity
        option: "Aufstehen"
    - service: scene.turn_on
      entity_id: scene.comfortable
