cover type entity

[halldark]

Hi,
Found that "cover" type entity is not covered by "toggle". So to handle gates/automatic doors etc only action is "tap". Planning to introduce "toggle" to it?
In other hand there is still option to handle this by script/scene/present cover as switch.

You can use the services cover.stop_cover cover.open_cover and cover.close_cover

 {
         "entity": "cover.rollo_links",
         "name": "Cover Stop",
         "type": "tap",
         "tap_action": {
           "service": "cover.stop_cover",
"confirm": true
         }
       },

The developers advise users against adding security devices.

and any idea how to handle "cover" with "toggle"?

I use cover.toggle as my service in a tap_action.
