hi all
how to create a picture-elements with state_image on/off?

empty heath Jul 23, 2018, 5:59 AM

#

@woven blaze What is your use case? Picture Elements card is meant to be a large group of things, not just to control one entity.

woven blaze Jul 23, 2018, 6:01 AM

#

@empty heath i would like to have picture-glance style (with image change by light state) per room. while having the ability to add labels such as room temperature.

empty heath Jul 23, 2018, 6:04 AM

#

@woven blaze So why not use an element to overlay the entire card?

woven blaze Jul 23, 2018, 6:16 AM

#

@empty heath i tried.. but it seems that the picture-elements image card is being on top of the image elements if that makes any sense...

#

ohh i figured it out

#

i forgot the style settings for the image

placid geyser Jul 23, 2018, 6:52 AM

Hi, I have a card with all my indoor temperature sensors. The mqtt senors work fine, but I just noticed that for my climate entity (Netatmo Thermostat) it displays the state (currently: idle) and '°C' but neither the set nor the current temperature. Is there a way to set a specific attribute to display? https://imgur.com/a/Gz3m4qA

timid burrow Jul 23, 2018, 6:53 AM

#

i have a hisrory graph - in the old UI, clicking on it opens it up but in lovelace it doesn't do anything?

buoyant skiff Jul 23, 2018, 6:55 AM

Morning

placid geyser Jul 23, 2018, 7:06 AM

#

This is also the case for zwave climate entities (in my case Danfoss thermostats/valves). https://imgur.com/a/k38b14O https://imgur.com/a/FE9iyKR

Template to display attributes

wheat current Jul 23, 2018, 7:08 AM

#

https://github.com/ciotlosm/custom-lovelace/tree/master/entity-attributes-card <-- is awesome for displaying attributes

placid geyser Jul 23, 2018, 7:13 AM

#

@buoyant skiff Of course templates would work, but creating a template for every value I'd want to display in the UI seems unnecessary to me. I was thinking about something like seconday_info. e.g. ```yaml

entity: climate.wohnzimmer
name: Wohnzimmer
attribute: current_temperature```

buoyant skiff Jul 23, 2018, 7:14 AM

#

Haven't looked at secondary info

placid geyser Jul 23, 2018, 7:14 AM

#

https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/entities/

buoyant skiff Jul 23, 2018, 7:14 AM

#

Should probably do that

#

At work now

placid geyser Jul 23, 2018, 7:15 AM

#

hehe, same here

wheat current Jul 23, 2018, 7:17 AM

#

@placid geyser For secondary-info it is only entity-id and last-changed that are valid acording to the docs

placid geyser Jul 23, 2018, 7:18 AM

#

@wheat current Right, I know. I was just comparing to it. So, to have another attribute like secondary_info to explicitly set an attribute.

wheat current Jul 23, 2018, 7:22 AM

#

That could be quite useful, maybe open a issue at https://github.com/home-assistant/ui-schema/issues?

woven blaze Jul 23, 2018, 7:24 AM

#

state-icon element for group appears blue no matter what the state is.
anyway to fix?

placid geyser Jul 23, 2018, 7:31 AM

#

@wheat current Yeah, will do. I just wanted to check whether that is already on someones plate and what other think about it. Or if I just missed an easy way.

rocky merlin Jul 23, 2018, 7:36 AM

#

Hey, when using LitElement, will _render be called everytime a state chage in hass object or do I have to make sure the render get called some how when state updates?

#

Like in the set hass property

#

I have the config and hass object in get properties property getter

#

Like the example

north spear Jul 23, 2018, 7:50 AM

#

you need to make the extra checking yourself

#

or move the render in setConfig and do updates only in set(hass)

rocky merlin Jul 23, 2018, 7:55 AM

#

Ahhh thanks mate!

rocky merlin Jul 23, 2018, 8:18 AM

#

I ended up making a property "state" that I set if state was different that the current known state... It worked like a charm 😃 Thanks @north spear

north spear Jul 23, 2018, 8:18 AM

#

no problem

#

usual approach:

    if (entity && entity.state != this._state) {
      this._state = entity.state;
      this._updateCardContent(entity);
    }

#

this makes sure you don't update dom if state hasn't changed

rocky merlin Jul 23, 2018, 8:24 AM

#

Yea I check to see if not updated but since I am using the LitElement and it renders in the _render method how can I use _updateCardContent directly?

#

Like force the update?

#

I saw there was a _requestRender method

vapid field Jul 23, 2018, 8:24 AM

#

Morning all. I'm sure this is just another thing I've missed in the docs but is there a way to change an icon for a group? My use case is a group of lights and it would be nice to have the single light functionality where the status icon matches the current state. This works ok on a single light but the group reverts to the group icon. I've tried adding an icon statement to the Lovelace configuration as well as to the customize.yaml but both seem to be ignored.

wheat current Jul 23, 2018, 8:26 AM

#

@vapid field https://www.home-assistant.io/components/light.group/ this should give you what you are after

vapid field Jul 23, 2018, 8:28 AM

#

Thanks @wheat current , I knew it would be there somewhere, it's just knowing what to search for. 😁

wheat current Jul 23, 2018, 8:29 AM

#

It's a well hidden gem 😃

north spear Jul 23, 2018, 8:35 AM

#

@rocky merlin _updateCardContent was a custom example in my code, not an available method. Not sure what LitElement exposes as I haven't used it yet

rocky merlin Jul 23, 2018, 8:37 AM

#

Ahh got ya...

#

thanks

#

Think I figured it out with your help mate

north spear Jul 23, 2018, 8:48 AM

#

cool

placid geyser Jul 23, 2018, 8:52 AM

#

@wheat current @buoyant skiff https://github.com/home-assistant/ui-schema/issues/126 😉

buoyant skiff Jul 23, 2018, 8:54 AM

#

thinking if i should add more stats to this card

📎 unknown.png

placid geyser Jul 23, 2018, 9:02 AM

#

hm, maybe I should have checked the other issues first. This one is probably the even more versatile solution.

wheat current Jul 23, 2018, 9:06 AM

#

Don't think so, it looks like that only applies to a "when did this last changes"

placid geyser Jul 23, 2018, 9:17 AM

#

@wheat current value_template: could be anything, not just last_changed, no? ```yaml

entity: binary_sensor.kitchen_motion
name: Top Floor
# Instead of just clear/detected, show last activation time:
value_template: {{ states.binary_sensor.kitchen_motion.last_changed | timeago }}```

wheat current Jul 23, 2018, 9:18 AM

#

templates will never be a part of lovelace

placid geyser Jul 23, 2018, 9:22 AM

#

Well, balloob reopened that issue, so, it might not be about templates but the idea behind it is very similar though.

buoyant skiff Jul 23, 2018, 9:39 AM

#

i really dont want templating back into the ui file

#

gets so messy

wheat current Jul 23, 2018, 9:49 AM

#

agreed, but defining an attribute to use for entites make sense

placid geyser Jul 23, 2018, 11:23 AM

#

@wheat current balloob seems to disagree.

wheat current Jul 23, 2018, 11:24 AM

#

There is

foggy tendon Jul 23, 2018, 11:38 AM

#

found it... so i must restart hass to get again the sensor?

wheat current Jul 23, 2018, 11:40 AM

#

Correct

foggy tendon Jul 23, 2018, 11:41 AM

#

is ther also an update for custom_cards.py?

wheat current Jul 23, 2018, 11:41 AM

#

Probably

buoyant skiff Jul 23, 2018, 11:41 AM

#

lol

foggy tendon Jul 23, 2018, 11:42 AM

#

where to find it?

#

found.. !

#

ok i updated custom_cards.py, custom_components.py and tracker-card.js but still don't gt anymore that sensor

wheat current Jul 23, 2018, 11:53 AM

#

Then you have a config issue

#

should only be:

custom_cards:
custom_components:

foggy tendon Jul 23, 2018, 11:53 AM

#

yes, i have them

hardy zealot Jul 23, 2018, 1:03 PM

#

I regularly get the red error card showing followed by the correctly rendered cards. The error cards "flash" by, they are on the screen for 1/10 second before being replace by a correctly rendered card. Happens on refresh (Shift+Cmd+R).

#

How can I start to debug / provide more info / provide PR?

wheat current Jul 23, 2018, 1:06 PM

#

I think that is because of how custom elements are loaded

hardy zealot Jul 23, 2018, 1:11 PM

#

Where is the code where cards are loaded?

#

I'm poking around in the lovelace/common directory.

rocky merlin Jul 23, 2018, 1:12 PM

#

I have the same problem @hardy zealot

forest star Jul 23, 2018, 1:13 PM

#

hi

#

one quesiton

#

whenever I use lovelace a message from HA pops up at the bottom, saying “Service system_log/write called

hardy zealot Jul 23, 2018, 1:17 PM

#

Yes. That happens.

buoyant skiff Jul 23, 2018, 1:20 PM

#

that might be bad config

#

or or the browser

forest star Jul 23, 2018, 1:22 PM

#

@hardy zealot only with lovelace ?

#

@buoyant skiff in all browsers and no erros on config

buoyant skiff Jul 23, 2018, 1:22 PM

#

if its in a browsers its deffo something that giving you an issue

#

ie bad config

forest star Jul 23, 2018, 1:23 PM

#

@buoyant skiff when you use lovelace you dont see that message ?

buoyant skiff Jul 23, 2018, 1:23 PM

#

i only use lovelace

placid geyser Jul 23, 2018, 1:23 PM

#

@forest star that message usually appears when you have a config problem. I'd suggest to comment out half of your (lovelace) config and try again.

hot gyro Jul 23, 2018, 1:23 PM

#

@forest star I had that a few time but didnt see that recently

buoyant skiff Jul 23, 2018, 1:23 PM

#

and the only time isee that is when i miss something

#

when im doing my cards

placid geyser Jul 23, 2018, 1:24 PM

#

@forest star also, did you check the logs? What is written to the logs after that message pops up?

#

It usually gives a clue of what is broken.

do you use any sliders ?

forest star Jul 23, 2018, 1:26 PM

#

no sliders

buoyant skiff Jul 23, 2018, 1:26 PM

#

use customui ?

forest star Jul 23, 2018, 1:26 PM

#

Oh maybe yes for radio

buoyant skiff Jul 23, 2018, 1:28 PM

#

yeah sliders isnt supported yet under lovelace

#

so anything customui related is broken

forest star Jul 23, 2018, 1:29 PM

#

Oh thats why

buoyant skiff Jul 23, 2018, 1:31 PM

#

indeed 😃

#

told ya something was broken 😄

hot gyro Jul 23, 2018, 1:32 PM

#

I wish you could add a picture to a picture-glance as a place holder in case the picture is not available from the sensor

buoyant skiff Jul 23, 2018, 1:32 PM

#

i added a camera in picture element 😛

#

📎 unknown.png

#

for my robot vacuum

hot gyro Jul 23, 2018, 1:33 PM

#

thats not what I mean - but nice - I mean you get a picture from a camera.x but the picture for some reason doesnt come through - have that with Ring quite a few times ... so instead of showing nothing I would like a placeholer picture

buoyant skiff Jul 23, 2018, 1:34 PM

#

havent bothered with picture glance at all

#

seems kinda limited

hot gyro Jul 23, 2018, 1:34 PM

#

on the flipside - would actually be better for the component to work

buoyant skiff Jul 23, 2018, 1:36 PM

#

but u can try and add something like this

#

    image: /api/camera_proxy/camera.jeaves_cleaning_map?token=*

#

if you look under dev info

#

and sort on cameras you will find entity pictures from cameras

#

and they look like that

#

but with a random generated token

#

that should work for you @hot gyro

hot gyro Jul 23, 2018, 1:39 PM

#

just reading up on camera proxy could indeed work

buoyant skiff Jul 23, 2018, 1:40 PM

#

worked for me

#

it does update the image with the wildcard at the ends doesnt use older cached file

forest star Jul 23, 2018, 1:47 PM

#

do you know how to change the color of the background page to that gray that the original dashboard has ?

placid geyser Jul 23, 2018, 1:58 PM

#

rocky merlin Jul 23, 2018, 2:04 PM

#

I am building a custom component in lovelace using LitElement. So sick, using the lit-html to render the html output, use the same variable in the <style> section and in <div> and different results. In the <style> it returns another instance value but in the div tag it is correct... How the h...l is that possible???

hot gyro Jul 23, 2018, 2:05 PM

#

for the glance card to work the core functionality of proxy needs to work - and it doesnt

buoyant skiff Jul 23, 2018, 2:06 PM

#

saying it doesnt work isnt gonna make it work 😉

@wheat current check out this crazy combo

hot gyro Jul 23, 2018, 2:09 PM

#

well if the proxy doesnt get a picture and I cant access it via the api either - I guess that is telling enough

buoyant skiff Jul 23, 2018, 2:09 PM

#

then you have to set up you sensor so it works

#

that uses 100% of the card width

#

and centers the item

@forest star Did you read the docs? 😜

You have to type your Home Assistant API URL at the end of the command.

And if you use a password, add -p before the URL.

It’s not Hass.io. He asked if it would work for Home Assistant. Lol

Now getting problems with lovelace frontend... since 10 minutes it tries to load but it stops at "loading data" and nothing more... while old frontend is working as always....

buoyant skiff Jul 23, 2018, 3:51 PM

#

bad config then

foggy tendon Jul 23, 2018, 3:52 PM

#

also if doesn't says nothing in the log?

mild veldt Jul 23, 2018, 3:52 PM

#

check browser's dev console

foggy tendon Jul 23, 2018, 3:52 PM

#

how?

#

hmmm... maybe custom_ui?

#

if yes, how to load lovelace with custom_ui disabled?

buoyant skiff Jul 23, 2018, 3:54 PM

#

begin with a empty lovelave ui file

#

and add a little bit at the time

#

until u find the error

foggy tendon Jul 23, 2018, 3:54 PM

with previous release none of all these new problems

**For users of the tracker-card by @north spear **
https://github.com/ciotlosm/custom-lovelace/tree/master/tracker-card

I have now created a new backend component for it, that will replace the old ones.
Now it's just a single file for both component and card tracking, earlier this was up to 4 files.

icy kettle Jul 23, 2018, 4:30 PM

#

Hi Guys, could you please help me out to figure out how to get the installed version of Lovalace?!

#

I have latest version of Hass v0.74 and was trying to update Lovelace config with dividers, but it doesn't work

raven nacelle Jul 23, 2018, 4:32 PM

#

@icy kettle that is not shipped yet

#

will be part of the next beta

icy kettle Jul 23, 2018, 4:32 PM

#

Oh, got it! Thank you very much. I was mislead by change log on lovelace page

rocky merlin Jul 23, 2018, 4:33 PM

#

Sorry for my noob javascript question. Is it possible to not have to use unpkg and use import {LitElement, html} from '@polymer/lit-element' cause unpkg keeps lock me out , prolly thinks its a DOS attack or smth haha

foggy tendon Jul 23, 2018, 4:34 PM

#

still getting problems with lovelace frontend... since 0.74.0 cannot anymore load the lovelace frontend... i did not changed anything inside the config files

north spear Jul 23, 2018, 4:37 PM

#

@icy kettle which part of the changelog?

icy kettle Jul 23, 2018, 4:38 PM

#

❤️ Lovelace card gallery
🔧 Async communication improvements``` There is the link to Lovelace Gallery with a bunch of examples

north spear Jul 23, 2018, 4:39 PM

#

Ah right. The gallery is for devs mostly and it’s on different release cycle. Better use official docs to see if a card is released

icy kettle Jul 23, 2018, 4:41 PM

#

Thanks for make it clear! Now I'm going to wait till Official release 😃

#

By the way, that is awesome! Thank you! Can't wait to use it

mild veldt Jul 23, 2018, 4:41 PM

#

The main thing is that the gallery can currently include changes that are not in lovelace releases yet, but is still a great place to check. Those dividers look nice

north spear Jul 23, 2018, 5:53 PM

#

I luv the secondary info line

#

works even with monster card

#

btw @fathom tree you can always ask more info around cards

#

I watched your live stream (offline) and it seemed you missed some info on why monster vs other

hot gyro Jul 23, 2018, 5:58 PM

#

@raven nacelle your state-icon setup - can it be used with mdi-icons as well or only the supplied one from hass ?

raven nacelle Jul 23, 2018, 6:10 PM

#

@hot gyro I think state-icon uses built-in icons

#

there is no icon configuration option there

mild veldt Jul 23, 2018, 6:14 PM

#

@hot gyro you can define an icon in you customize: section that will then hit state-icon. Only thing I've ran into so far that I've needed to use a regular icon element is for my cameras where I don't want the preview

vapid field Jul 23, 2018, 6:20 PM

#

was wondering why is always pop up message of:
service system_log/write called

#

when in frontend lovelace´

#

is that normal?

split granite Jul 23, 2018, 6:22 PM

#

I usually only see that when I got something wrong

#

The log then has the details 😉

vapid field Jul 23, 2018, 6:26 PM

#

@split granite what would this mean:

mild veldt Jul 23, 2018, 6:27 PM

#

@vapid field you use any old custom_ui stuff?

#

I get that because I'm still using the custom_ui mini_media_player card

vapid field Jul 23, 2018, 6:28 PM

#

its possible so many changes that is hard to follow up hehe

#

i have many of those errors

#

hard to know now where they come from 😃

buoyant skiff Jul 23, 2018, 6:29 PM

probly copy pasting

mild veldt Jul 23, 2018, 6:29 PM

is there another way? 😉

vapid field Jul 23, 2018, 6:29 PM

#

that is very likely @buoyant skiff

buoyant skiff Jul 23, 2018, 6:29 PM

#

@split granite please pin a message about system call/write that the users should check their config

#

today has been an repeatition day

#

system write = bad config

mild veldt Jul 23, 2018, 6:30 PM

#

I don't think it's 100% config, however. Like I mentioned, old custom_ui stuff can cause it as well

buoyant skiff Jul 23, 2018, 6:30 PM

#

yeah sliders

mild veldt Jul 23, 2018, 6:30 PM

#

well, "lovelace" config, I mean

#

yeah, sliders is why I get it

vapid field Jul 23, 2018, 6:31 PM

#

ya the problem is how to fix it if not knowing how to troubleshoot 😃

empty heath Jul 23, 2018, 6:31 PM

#

What's all this talk about "system write" and "bad config?"

buoyant skiff Jul 23, 2018, 6:31 PM

#

most users that popped into today has had bad configs

vapid field Jul 23, 2018, 6:31 PM

#

only sliders i have is from iframe from grafana for some reason it will make appear sliders bars

buoyant skiff Jul 23, 2018, 6:31 PM

#

trying to use customui

empty heath Jul 23, 2018, 6:32 PM

#

Ahh, interesting.

buoyant skiff Jul 23, 2018, 6:32 PM

#

and or missing stuff in ui-lovelace.yaml

mild veldt Jul 23, 2018, 6:32 PM

#

@vapid field strip your ui-lovelace.yaml down to the bare minimum and see if you still get that

empty heath Jul 23, 2018, 6:32 PM

#

We need to patch the frontend to be more specific about why the error is happening, then.

buoyant skiff Jul 23, 2018, 6:33 PM

#

If you are experiencing service system_log/write called popping up please check your ui-lovelace.yaml most likely that the error is in that file and please don't use sliders from customui since it breaks lovelace

#

perfect pin message

empty heath Jul 23, 2018, 6:33 PM

#

I love that people ignore this warning in the logs:

mild veldt Jul 23, 2018, 6:36 PM

So change the theme 😉

no

I want lovelace to be fixed

split granite Jul 23, 2018, 6:42 PM

The answer to "Lovelace isn't the colour I want" is themes

buoyant skiff Jul 23, 2018, 6:43 PM

#

thats a radial background

- title: Jeaves

for a total pitch black background

You need to put all the colours to black, so you can emulate the use of peril sensitive sunglasses 😛

Monster card is a magical type of card. Because it's dynamic if you're smart about it, you can have one card that adapts and that you don't need to touch when adding new entities & sensors to your setup. Supports both inclusion and exclusion filters with wildcard for entity_id: https://github.com/ciotlosm/custom-lovelace/tree/master/monster-card

Have a closer look at my example config. I only have one card directly under the view. The rest are inside of the vertical-stack 😉

@empty heath Should I wrap both the vertical stack and horizontal stack inside of another vertical stack?

With panel: true you can only have ONE card directly the cards: section of the view. Other cards will not be shown.

hi , there is a problem with the latest version of card tracker

#

/tracker-card.js?v=0.1.2:101:58 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'replace' of undefined

#

how can i go back to previous version?

#

just , copy and paste the js , file?

wheat current Jul 23, 2018, 10:02 PM

#

@calm rock Make sure you use the latest version.
custom_updater v1.2.0 https://github.com/custom-components/custom_updater
tracker-card v0.3.0 https://github.com/custom-cards/tracker-card

how to make the badges to show the state in lovelace?

sinful haven Jul 23, 2018, 11:29 PM

#

is it possible to declare title on "type: entity-filter"?

mild veldt Jul 23, 2018, 11:46 PM

#

@sinful haven yes, check the docs https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/entity-filter/

sinful haven Jul 23, 2018, 11:47 PM

#

@mild veldt thanks, I guess it was late as I tried it without the 'card'...

mild veldt Jul 23, 2018, 11:59 PM

#

@calm rock in what card? A glance card or on a view itself?

timid burrow Jul 24, 2018, 12:26 AM

#

i have a couple of issues with Lovelace.... wondering if they are 'issues' or by design behaviour before I log an issue

#

in customize.yaml if something is set as hidden, that is ignored if the entity is included on a card in lovelace yaml. It used to be ignored in groups yaml

#

history graph in old ui if I click on it it opens up but in lovelace it does nothing?

mild veldt Jul 24, 2018, 12:28 AM

#

Have you reviewed the logged issues?

timid burrow Jul 24, 2018, 12:28 AM

#

um... is there a specific place for lovelace?

mild veldt Jul 24, 2018, 12:29 AM

#

Yes

#

https://github.com/home-assistant/ui-schema/issues

timid burrow Jul 24, 2018, 12:30 AM

#

thanks... ill look there

mild veldt Jul 24, 2018, 12:30 AM

#

Not sure how #1 would be an “issue”. You explicitly describe what is to be on your Lovelace ui

timid burrow Jul 24, 2018, 12:31 AM

#

i don't see those there.. but i'm not sure if they are issues or expected behaviour

mild veldt Jul 24, 2018, 12:31 AM

#

Maybe if using a filter respecting hidden would make sense, I guess

frosty pelican Jul 24, 2018, 12:31 AM

#

if you are explicitly calling it thats different though right?

timid burrow Jul 24, 2018, 12:32 AM

#

that's true but I did that in groups as well and it was ignored. I only discovered it because I used Dale3h's script to import groups to lovelace and there it was

mild veldt Jul 24, 2018, 12:32 AM

#

Sounds like you just need to do some cleanup

timid burrow Jul 24, 2018, 12:32 AM

#

i would never have noticed the error otherwise

mild veldt Jul 24, 2018, 12:33 AM

#

I wouldn’t consider that an issie

frosty pelican Jul 24, 2018, 12:33 AM

#

it sounds like what Lovelace was intended for

mild veldt Jul 24, 2018, 12:33 AM

#

The port script is a tool to help but will likely not get you 100% to what you meed

timid burrow Jul 24, 2018, 12:33 AM

#

well yeah... well what's the point of having a hidden flag in customize?

frosty pelican Jul 24, 2018, 12:33 AM

#

to separate the backend and front end

#

because groups have a different purpose other than the UI

mild veldt Jul 24, 2018, 12:34 AM

#

Things they are a changing as @frosty pelican just said

#

Groups were never meant to define the UI but where there is a will...

undone egret Jul 24, 2018, 12:34 AM

#

@frosty pelican i kinda like keeping my FE and BE kinda close ... Kinda born that way 🤣

timid burrow Jul 24, 2018, 12:35 AM

#

hahahaha

#

groups were the only way to define the ui before

frosty pelican Jul 24, 2018, 12:35 AM

#

yup

#

customize is more of an override almost isnt it?

timid burrow Jul 24, 2018, 12:36 AM

#

so why have hidden in customize at all then? will that serve some other purpose?

frosty pelican Jul 24, 2018, 12:36 AM

#

i think hidden was created for groups and the UI to begin with

#

so it may do away with at some point

mild veldt Jul 24, 2018, 12:36 AM

#

Lovelace has not replaced the current ui...yet

timid burrow Jul 24, 2018, 12:36 AM

#

I thought it was an overide.... hence my surprise when lovelace didn't get overidden

frosty pelican Jul 24, 2018, 12:37 AM

#

yea I think I saw some discussion about allowing icons to be defined in Lovelace so we don't need to define in customize as well

#

so probably will be replaced little by little?

mild veldt Jul 24, 2018, 12:38 AM

#

Can you explain the use case where hidden would be needed though?

quick beacon Jul 24, 2018, 12:39 AM

#

hidden is deprecated, customize is not the future

mild veldt Jul 24, 2018, 12:40 AM

#

There it is. The official word 😃

timid burrow Jul 24, 2018, 12:40 AM

#

ok so it's not a bug but is expected behaviour?

#

doesn't bother me but if it's a bug i'll file an issue

mild veldt Jul 24, 2018, 12:41 AM

#

C727 is pretty much Lovelace, so their word is law

frosty pelican Jul 24, 2018, 12:42 AM

#

it sounds like things need to be explicit with Lovelace...so if you list the entity then it will show....even with the monster card if you use a wildcard you still need to exclude the items you do not want

timid burrow Jul 24, 2018, 12:42 AM

#

so I use custimize for icons and friendly names as well... are they moving to lovelace too?

frosty pelican Jul 24, 2018, 12:43 AM

#

i think friendly name got replaced with name

quick beacon Jul 24, 2018, 12:43 AM

#

it's not my word. it was also mentioned before that it was a failure to allow static stuff in entity-state. the customize stuff for emulted_hue and so on was also removed in the past

frosty pelican Jul 24, 2018, 12:44 AM

#

@timid burrow I am still using customize to display icons for now

quick beacon Jul 24, 2018, 12:44 AM

#

glance and entities support icon: in next release

frosty pelican Jul 24, 2018, 12:44 AM

#

^^ woohoo!!

timid burrow Jul 24, 2018, 12:45 AM

#

what about friendly_name or name?

frosty pelican Jul 24, 2018, 12:45 AM

#

you can already do name today in Lovelace

#

https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/entities/#name

#

glance has the same feature

#

so in the next release will icon be deprecated from customize.yaml for Lovelace?

timid burrow Jul 24, 2018, 12:46 AM

#

ahhhhhhhhhhhhh I hadn't seen that

#

at the moment lovelace is using friendly names from customize

frosty pelican Jul 24, 2018, 12:49 AM

#

yea and you can override it using name

timid burrow Jul 24, 2018, 12:49 AM

#

gotcha. so when the old ui is depreciated you will have to do that in lovelace..

frosty pelican Jul 24, 2018, 12:50 AM

#

I had to do that because glance card only shows like 10 characters and it doesnt play nice when you hve a bunch of items named "Living Room ..."

timid burrow Jul 24, 2018, 12:50 AM

#

i might as well do that now or maybe next release so I can do icons as well

#

i'm only using entities and media control

#

so my lovelace looks identical (pretty much) to standard ui

frosty pelican Jul 24, 2018, 12:52 AM

#

I like to keep my cameras on a single page so its nice to get that grid view on those views now

mild veldt Jul 24, 2018, 12:52 AM

#

I would really recommend starting from scratch. There just so much more you can do and customize now

timid burrow Jul 24, 2018, 12:53 AM

#

i just don't see the point TBH

#

what about the history graph - if I click on it nothing happens. in the old ui it used to blow it up on the screen

dense roost Jul 24, 2018, 12:59 AM

#

Why does a lot of text in the back end use primary color, instead of primary text color or something else. I have the primary color set to Black for the header, but it turns a lot of back end text Black as well.

mortal cape Jul 24, 2018, 1:01 AM

#

@timid burrow blows up when I click on the title for me

timid burrow Jul 24, 2018, 1:02 AM

#

hmm. not for me.

      - type: history-graph
        title: Speedtest Graph
        hours_to_show: 24
        refresh_interval: 1800
        entities:
          - sensor.speedtest_download
          - sensor.speedtest_download_filtered
          - sensor.speedtest_upload
          - sensor.speedtest_upload_filtered

mortal cape Jul 24, 2018, 1:03 AM

#

oh I picked any old graph...my mistake

timid burrow Jul 24, 2018, 1:04 AM

#

hmm... ok... do i need to log an issue for that then?

timid burrow Jul 24, 2018, 1:32 AM

#

how do I make this do a vertical stack? I just can't get it right

drowsy summit Jul 24, 2018, 1:34 AM

timid burrow Jul 24, 2018, 1:34 AM

#

yeah.. I just need to know the syntax then I can fix other stuff

#

ok... lemme try that..

#

looks good....

drowsy summit Jul 24, 2018, 1:48 AM

#

cool

#

how's that last edit look?

#

down by your devices 😃

calm rock Jul 24, 2018, 1:55 AM

#

@mild veldt on the view itself

#

If the state is not shown , then the badge will not send any relevant information

timid burrow Jul 24, 2018, 2:13 AM

#

@drowsy summit yeah looks much better. Finally a reason to prefer lovelace

#

i do love not having to restart all the time

drowsy summit Jul 24, 2018, 2:14 AM

@timid burrow I had actually made a comment on the config down near your iOS devices... heh >:)

#

i didn't copy and paste it back so I never noticed

#

i just wanted the syntax

#

looks much nicer now

#

"#get a real phone" I believe it was 😃

Morning

simple jolt Jul 24, 2018, 4:49 AM

#

Just installed the tracker card. Apart from sensor.tracker_card and sensor.custom_components what do I put in the oat to track the other custom cards I downloaded?

buoyant skiff Jul 24, 2018, 4:50 AM

#

which are the other cards ?

#

easier question to begin with

simple jolt Jul 24, 2018, 4:51 AM

#

Gauge card, vertical stack and big number

buoyant skiff Jul 24, 2018, 4:51 AM

#

well those cards should be tracked by default

#

if you added it correctly

simple jolt Jul 24, 2018, 4:52 AM

#

It’s showing the tracker-card and custom-ouster as up to date. But I’m pretty sure that my alarm panel card is not.

buoyant skiff Jul 24, 2018, 4:53 AM

#

https://github.com/custom-components/custom_updater

#

https://github.com/custom-cards/tracker-card

#

did u add ?v=0

#

on gauge and the others

simple jolt Jul 24, 2018, 4:54 AM

#

No. I did not. Let me try that.

buoyant skiff Jul 24, 2018, 4:54 AM

#

then you did wrong

#

and thats why it didnt work

#

again its important to read the docs

#

how is the script supposed to know which version is installed ? 😛

simple jolt Jul 24, 2018, 4:56 AM

#

I didn’t see any versioning instructions on either of the links. Where is it located?

buoyant skiff Jul 24, 2018, 4:57 AM

#

ui-lovelace.yaml

#

first lines

#

where you define resources

#

Link tracker-card inside you ui-lovelace.yaml <----

simple jolt Jul 24, 2018, 4:57 AM

#

Yes but in the instructions for the update tracker it didn’t say anything about adding ?v=0 to the .js file.

buoyant skiff Jul 24, 2018, 4:58 AM

#

well if you did it for one card maybe its implied that you should do it for the others aswell

#

can talk to ludeeus later on in the day

#

make him include that

#

so we really have a step by step

simple jolt Jul 24, 2018, 4:59 AM

#

Yea sometimes clear instructions help us non expert users.

#

We are all eager to try Lovelace

buoyant skiff Jul 24, 2018, 4:59 AM

#

well its not really expert level stuff but i see your point

#

and its good if the instructions are clear for novice or beginners

#

takes less time from the real stuff

simple jolt Jul 24, 2018, 5:00 AM

#

And I’m sure updating docs is never high on your list of priorities.

#

If I click on update all will it update the card or is it best to download the latest version from the repo?

buoyant skiff Jul 24, 2018, 5:01 AM

#

yes

#

https://github.com/custom-cards/tracker-card/pull/3

#

there

#

did a pr

#

to add that part

YAML has a handy feature called anchors, which let you easily duplicate content across your document: https://github.com/dale3h/homeassistant-config/blob/master/examples/learn_yaml.yaml#L105

the script works really well @empty heath

#

what extra will the add-on do?

wheat current Jul 24, 2018, 7:40 AM

#

Assuing it will make sure requisites are in place, un it for you, with an export to /config?

timid burrow Jul 24, 2018, 7:41 AM

#

oh that would be an advantage..... but its a one off action

wheat current Jul 24, 2018, 7:45 AM

#

He may have some other idea for it, I'm just guessing here 😛

empty heath Jul 24, 2018, 7:47 AM

#

@timid burrow Since using the script on Hass.io is so difficult, I figured I would appease @quick beacon and make it as simple as possible. With the add-on you can install it, run it, and boom -- it does everything for you.

#

@timid burrow Which one action might that be?

timid burrow Jul 24, 2018, 7:48 AM

#

well exporting to lovelace isn't something you do more than once is it?

empty heath Jul 24, 2018, 7:48 AM

#

Ahh, I read that wrong.

#

Yes, it is a one-off add-on.

wheat current Jul 24, 2018, 7:48 AM

#

How long have you used home Assistant. ? 😂

#

I would have ran it multiple times 😅

empty heath Jul 24, 2018, 7:49 AM

#

(In most cases, it is one-off) 😂

timid burrow Jul 24, 2018, 7:49 AM

#

but it was a pain installing pip etc and then using copy/paste from the output to copy to yaml but yeah an addon will be appreciated by some

empty heath Jul 24, 2018, 7:49 AM

#

But, the great news is that it automagically backs up your ui-lovelace.yaml file if it already exists!

wheat current Jul 24, 2018, 7:50 AM

How about moving them to /backup/lovelace ?

#

(so I don't have to change my .gitignore) 😅

empty heath Jul 24, 2018, 7:52 AM

#

I don't see that being feasible, unfortunately. I mean, it's possible, sure, but not necessary in most cases.

timid burrow Jul 24, 2018, 7:53 AM

for a one-off hahahahahaha

#

(I'm probably an edge case user 😛 )

empty heath Jul 24, 2018, 7:59 AM

@wheat current You could always just have it generate to /backup and then copy it over afterward. 😃

post_commands make sense (at least to me) 😄

@wheat current Here ya go, this I think does the trick:

{
  "log_level": "info",
  "output": "/backup/ui-lovelace.yaml",
  "init_commands": [
    "cp /config/ui-lovelace.yaml /backup/ui-lovelace.yaml"

  "post_commands": [
    "cp /backup/ui-lovelace.yaml /config/ui-lovelace.yaml"
  ]
}

#

That should ensure that the backups are only written to /backup/, and that the latest backup is of your actual /config/ui-lovelace.yaml

@timid burrow A situation where it would not be one-off is if you create a new view in the old UI and want to get just that view from a newly generated ui-lovelace.yaml. In this use-case, you wouldn't want to overwrite your live ui-lovelace.yaml, but instead to a separate folder, and then open the file and copy/paste just that view.

fair call..

icon-state element within picture-elements does not change color based on state. is it? why?

wheat current Jul 24, 2018, 9:25 AM

#

@woven blaze It does that for me

woven blaze Jul 24, 2018, 9:30 AM

#

@wheat current may you try with group (like group of lights)

wheat current Jul 24, 2018, 9:30 AM

#

A group of lights or a light group?

woven blaze Jul 24, 2018, 9:32 AM

#

sorry i don't understand the difference. i mean like having 2 lights and create a group for them so you can action both togather.

wheat current Jul 24, 2018, 9:33 AM

#

for that you should be using https://www.home-assistant.io/components/light.group/ and that should reflect icon changes like regular lights

woven blaze Jul 24, 2018, 9:34 AM

#

ohh thats new for me.. thanks! I'll try that

#

@wheat current on a different element.
i would like my room temperature to float on the picture, i used state-label. however it's text color being too dark to read, any way turning that into white?

buoyant skiff Jul 24, 2018, 9:40 AM

#

color: white

#

read up on styling in the docs

wheat current Jul 24, 2018, 9:40 AM

#

@woven blaze like @buoyant skiff sugested:
add this to the element

style:
  color: white

#

Some one need to put transform: none in the docs, I use that for all my texts now 😛

#

i have a question

buoyant skiff Jul 24, 2018, 9:45 AM

#

shoot

#

lets see if we can help

paper finch Jul 24, 2018, 9:46 AM

#

id like to create a button that calls the service "light.turn_off" for "group.all_lights"

#

not a toggle switch

buoyant skiff Jul 24, 2018, 9:47 AM

#

and what card are you working with ?

paper finch Jul 24, 2018, 9:47 AM

#

any card

buoyant skiff Jul 24, 2018, 9:47 AM

#

k there are various styles my favorite card is picture element

#

there you can define an entity and do a service call

wheat current Jul 24, 2018, 9:48 AM

#

A script will give you an execute "button"
@buoyant skiff are there a botton element for picture elements?

buoyant skiff Jul 24, 2018, 9:49 AM

#

  - type: picture-elements
    image: /api/camera_proxy/camera.jeaves_cleaning_map?token=*
    elements:
    - type: state-icon
      tap_action: toggle
      entity: vacuum.jeaves
      service: vacuum.locate
      style:
        top: 5%
        left: 95%
        "--paper-item-icon-color": rgb(115, 122, 130)

wheat current Jul 24, 2018, 9:49 AM

#

So no 😛

buoyant skiff Jul 24, 2018, 9:49 AM

#

was showing @paper finch

paper finch Jul 24, 2018, 9:50 AM

#

lol... can i just get a basic button for now? maybe ill deal with picture elements later

buoyant skiff Jul 24, 2018, 9:50 AM

#

for you @wheat current state-icon

paper finch Jul 24, 2018, 9:50 AM

#

bit too advanced at the moment i think

#

ill keep that in mind though

#

looks cool

buoyant skiff Jul 24, 2018, 9:51 AM

#

its not advanced 😄

wheat current Jul 24, 2018, 9:51 AM

#

service-button

📎 unknown.png

buoyant skiff Jul 24, 2018, 9:51 AM

#

service-icon

#

thats what i use

#

then as entity the script

#

works like a charm

#

care less about button

quick beacon Jul 24, 2018, 9:52 AM

#

Your service is homeassistant.turn_off if your entity is group.all_lights

paper finch Jul 24, 2018, 9:53 AM

#

what yaml file do i put this in?

#

is it all done in lovelace?

buoyant skiff Jul 24, 2018, 9:53 AM

#

ui-lovelace.yaml

wheat current Jul 24, 2018, 9:53 AM

#

@quick beacon if that is true, the docs are wrong https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/picture-elements/#example

quick beacon Jul 24, 2018, 9:54 AM

#

Lol, this is basic HA service syntax

buoyant skiff Jul 24, 2018, 9:54 AM

#

time to head home 😄

#

3 more days to go

wheat current Jul 24, 2018, 9:55 AM

#

docs still wrong

quick beacon Jul 24, 2018, 9:56 AM

#

Indeed

paper finch Jul 24, 2018, 9:56 AM

#

im new to yaml. never used it before until today

#

im an openHAB user but i like HA GUI better

wheat current Jul 24, 2018, 9:57 AM

#

~yaml

kind shellBOT Jul 24, 2018, 9:57 AM

#

YAML is the mark up language used by Home Assistant. Consistent indenting (two spaces per level) is key - read more at https://home-assistant.io/docs/configuration/yaml/

buoyant skiff Jul 24, 2018, 9:57 AM

#

take your time and read the docs

#

😃

paper finch Jul 24, 2018, 9:57 AM

i have been

wheat current Jul 24, 2018, 9:58 AM

#

All lovelace config goes in the ui-lovelace.yaml file, if you do not have that, just create it and get started 😃

paper finch Jul 24, 2018, 9:59 AM

#

ive just been using the commented sections to understand lovelace. dont know the statements

wheat current Jul 24, 2018, 9:59 AM

#

statements?

paper finch Jul 24, 2018, 10:00 AM

#

commands?

#

sry... self learning programming jargon

#

so at the moment i have

#

views:
  - icon: mdi:home-assistant
    title: Home
    id: home
    cards:
      - type: entities
        title: Lights
        entities:
          - entity: group.all_lights
            name: All Lights

#

but i want a single button and not a toggle

buoyant skiff Jul 24, 2018, 10:07 AM

#

then you need to change the type
