Modify tap_action + add hold_action & double_tap_action as per Home Assistant Dashboard Actions for tap actions

[danielbrunt57]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I'm always frustrated when... card parameters differ from other mainstream cards.

Describe the solution you'd like
Implement the tap_ action configuration variables as per Home Assistant Actions documentation which the Button, Entities, Glance, Light, Picture, Picture element, Picture entity and Picture glance cards use.

Additional context
I really want the confirmation: option!
And service_data: should be just data: to match other HA cards.
You could keep service_data: functional for backwards compatibility rather than issuing a breaking change.

Ideally, my code would look like...

tap_action:
  action: call-service
  confirmation:
    text: Battery replaced?
  service: button.press
  data:
    entity_id: button.bathroom_battery_replaced

rather than how I have to do it now...

        tap_action:
          action: call-service
          service: button.press
          service_data:
            entity_id: button.bathroom_battery_replaced

Oh, and if not too much trouble, could you add icon_tap_action like the tile card has???

Thanks for listening!

Ideally, I would like to be able to do this with the custom:auto-entities card (and have the confirmation option):

        tap_action:
          action: call-service
          service: button.press
          service_data:
            entity_id: '{{ this.entity_id|replace("sensor.","button.")|replace("_battery_plus","_battery_replaced") }}'

but that is not working unless I hard-code the entity_id.
Full code (thus far)...

With regards to my templated service_data:, entity_id: issue, I started thinking outside the box and thought this might work. Since I use custom-ui, I added a new atrribute to the battery sensor called battery_last_replaced_button which is set to the entity_id of the related button. I then tried using KString in entity_id but it looks like it's not being parsed there.

configuration.yaml:

homeassistant:
  customize_glob:
    "*.*":
      hide_attributes:
        - templates
       
    sensor.*_battery:
      templates: &battery_color
        icon_color: >
            var r = Math.min(255, Math.round(510 - 5.10 * Number(state)));
            var g = Math.min(255, Math.round(5.10 * Number(state)));
            var h = r * 0x10000 + g * 0x100;
            return '#' + ('000000' + h.toString(16)).slice(-6);

    sensor.*_battery_level:
      templates: *battery_color

    sensor.*_battery_plus:
      templates: 
        <<: *battery_color
        battery_last_replaced_button: >
          return 'button.' + entity.entity_id.split('.')[1].split('_battery_plus')[0] + '_battery_replaced';

and I now have the new attribute:

and battery-state-card appears to see it:

but when I tap, it triggers an error:

Is there any way I can template the entity_id in tap_action?

**Update **
As for the templated custom-ui attribute, it seems to only exist in the front-end(?) as I cannot reference it where I need to. I tried creating a script for tap_action to call but the script cannot see the custom-ui created attribute as verified by entering a template into Dev Tools - the attribute is not real. So much for that! I'll ask the Battery Notes author (nicely) to add that attribute and then my script should work, unless of course you add KString parsing to entity_id in tap_action!

[danielbrunt57]

FYI, I came up with this card solution which although is a little heavy on templating, enabled me to call the battery_notes.set_battery_replaced service using device_id: via a hold_action. The card I created looks identical to the one I made first using battery-state-card.

The first one...

          ({{state_attr(config.entity,'battery_type_and_quantity')}})

          state_attr(config.entity,'battery_last_replaced')|relative_time() }}

              },

        device_class: battery
      state: 'on'
  exclude:

and the second one...

        secondary_info: 'Reported: {attributes.battery_last_replaced|reltime()}'
        hold_action:
          action: call-service
          service: script.battery_notes_battery_replaced

Food for thought??
