Generic Output Button¶
The output
button platform allows you to use any output component as a button. This can for example be used to
momentarily set a GPIO pin using a button.

# Example configuration entry
output:
- platform: gpio
pin: GPIOXX
id: output1
button:
- platform: output
name: "Generic Output"
output: output1
duration: 500ms
Configuration variables:¶
output (Required, ID): The ID of the output component to use.
duration (Required, Time): How long the output should be set when the button is pressed.
All other options from Button.
Note
When used with a GPIO Output, the pin will be low by default and pulled high when the button is pressed. To invert this behaviour and have the pin pulled low when the button is pressed, set the inverted option in the Pin Schema.
