I can't get currently recognized plate

[GitKiller-HA]

Hi,

There is an example how to compare the currently read plate with the definition of "wached_plates", but how can I get the currently read plate as a sensor ?

I try something like below to get currently read plate and confidence of read:

current_plate_recognizer:
value_template: "{{ state_attr('image_processing.platerecognizer_xxxcamera', 'vehicles').plate }}"

current_plate_recognizer_confidence:
value_template: "{{ state_attr('image_processing.platerecognizer_xxxcamera', 'vehicles').confidence }}"

but I get warning:

Template variable warning: 'list object' has no attribute 'plate' when rendering '{{ state_attr('image_processing.platerecognizer_xxxcamera', 'vehicles').plate }}'

Template variable warning: 'list object' has no attribute 'confidence' when rendering '{{ state_attr('image_processing.platerecognizer_xxxcamera', 'vehicles').confidence }}'

Regards,
Grzegorz

I encountered the same issue. The warming is because the result is a list. Below the template sensor I created in Home assistant:

sensor:
  unique_id: plate_recognizer_plates
  name: License plates
  icon: mdi:car
  state: >-
    {%- if (state_attr('image_processing.platerecognizer_parking', 'vehicles') |count) == 0 %}
    None
    {% else %}
      {%- for i in range(0, (state_attr('image_processing.platerecognizer_parking', 'vehicles') |count) )%}
      {{- state_attr('image_processing.platerecognizer_parking', 'vehicles')[i].plate | upper}}
      {% endfor %}
    {% endif %}```
