Homeassitant lights event handling

I recently installed rhasspy, and would like to thank the community for putting all of this together. Its working quite nicely. To give back I would like to share my event handling code, as something that handled siteId’s wasnt readily available as an example. Im using events and not intents for now. This was not as straight forward as I expected, and would love to know if anyone has done this in another/better way.

my siteId’s are livingroom and bedroom

automations to catch rhasspy events:

- alias: Rhasspy Lights
  description: Voice Control on/off states for lights
  trigger:
  - event_data: {}
    event_type: rhasspy_Lights
    platform: event
  condition: []
  action:
  - alias: ''
    data_template:
      light_name: "{{ trigger.event.data.light_name }}"
      light_state: "{{ trigger.event.data.light_state }}"
      siteId: "{{ trigger.event.data._intent.siteId }}"
      light_group: "{{ trigger.event.data.light_group }}"
    service: script.rhasspy_lights

script to handle events:

rhasspy_lights:
  alias: rhasspy_lights
  fields:
    light_name:
      description: "light name"
      example: light lamp etc
    light_state:
      description: "State to change the switch to"
      example: on
    siteId:
      description: "rhasspy siteId"
      example: livingroom
    light_group:
      description: "light group"
      example: light.all_livingroom_light
  sequence:
    - service_template: >
        {% set light_state = light_state | string %}
        {% if light_state == 'on' %}
          light.turn_on
        {% elif light_state == 'off' %}
          light.turn_off
        {%elif light_state == 'toggle' %}
          light.toggle
        {% endif %}

      data_template:
        entity_id: >-
          {% set group_entity = "light."+light_group|string %}
          {% if group_entity in states|map(attribute='entity_id') %}
            {% set light_entity = group_entity %}
          {% elif light_group == 'all' %}
            {% set light_entity = ("light.all_"+siteId+"_light") | string %}
          {% else %}
            {% set light_entity = ("light."+siteId+"_"+light_name) | string %}
          {% endif %}
          {{light_entity}}
