instead of working

[fading sorrel]

😛

[torn elm]

@empty heath oh my. Apparently I’m attributing your fine work to others. 😳 thanks for setting me right @fading sorrel

[polar kelp]

Oh my! I think I can turn a card into a media player.

I.e. any device that currently has that card loaded can be the target of play_media (audio only), e.g. tts announcements.

Probably also filterable on IP.

How I wish my vacation wasn't over tomorrow 😦

[buoyant skiff]

call in sick 😛

[dense roost]

@buoyant skiff my UI is waiting on css import to work 😭 . Meant to file a bug report as css import is completely overridden on the page load.

[buoyant skiff]

so far ive imported fonts

from google fonts

https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Press+Start+2P/

https://fonts.google.com/specimen/VT323/

[dense roost]

But all positioning and styling is overridden

[buoyant skiff]

should consider using these fonts 😛

haha

make it look even more as a game

[dense roost]

Ahaha those are awesome

[buoyant skiff]

yeah not sure how far we can push that

havent done any styling yet

most styling works so far for me with regular

with just plain style:

[dense roost]

I'm making emulation stations for all of my disabled clients to play, I've been playing a lot of nes games and have some neat ideas for the UI I want to do but I need css import to override styling and positioning. And I've been meaning to check if animated gifs work with Lovelace. I've got ideas for using sprites

Another idea I had was page load animations where entities fade in and slide down on page load but again everything is overridden

Kiosk mode is something I need to finish the UI as well, I was going to accomplish it with css import since it'd be so easy

[buoyant skiff]

  - url: https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Clicker+Script|Anaheim|Antic|Barlow+Condensed|BenchNine
    type: css

when you get around to importing fonts

[polar kelp]

Hm... then again... probably not filterable on ip or anything, really...
Browsers REALLY don't like to hand out unique identifiers...

Which is a good thing

[buoyant skiff]

it is

https://github.com/custom-components/camera.unsplash/

❤

dynamic backgrounds here we go

[raven nacelle]

Nice....can we make them backgrounds for other cards?

[wheat current]

With picture-elements you can add the camera entity as a picture with z-index: 0 and the elements over it with z-index: 1

[buoyant skiff]

yes

check the vacuum card for neato

for how to

.sharethelove

[kind shell]

A place for LoveLace Config https://sharethelove.io/

[raven nacelle]

Cool...let me get started with that 😃

[buoyant skiff]

got 2 cards setup already

should probly get some sleep

[raven nacelle]

@buoyant skiff There are two keys in Unsplash...may be clarify in the docs which one is required

[buoyant skiff]

not the secret one

[wheat current]

one is a key, the other is a secret

[raven nacelle]

I know....but it may not be immediately obvious

May be change Your Unsplash API key. to Your Unsplash access key.

[wheat current]

touche

[buoyant skiff]

Ludeeus wrote the docs 😛

[raven nacelle]

nothing wrong there....just minor changes 😉

things can always be improved

[buoyant skiff]

im dead tired but i still wanna mess around more with my cards

[wheat current]

@raven nacelle https://github.com/custom-components/camera.unsplash/commit/371948cc40c9de4a1fefba2a5136eb288c4dd2b7

[buoyant skiff]

a good idea is to make a placeholder

a transparent png

for the image

if you want a collection_id to mess around with

you can use mine

collection_id: 2461850

here is the empty placeholder

have fun

and dont forget to use z-index

[wheat current]

it does not look like you need z-index if the camera it added at the top

[buoyant skiff]

better safe then sorry

so awesome when the card switches backgrounds now

gonna add multiple cameras so there is more randomness 😛

[wheat current]

You can add miltiple collection_id's 😉

[buoyant skiff]

yeah true

one bright and one dark collection and a mixed

anyways good night people

have fun with the camera component @raven nacelle

[mild veldt]

Wait...can I scroll through my security cameras?

Or we just talking about unsplash?

[wheat current]

Unsplash

[mild veldt]

Well on that note, a camera component that cycled through camera entities would be pretty awesome

[wheat current]

seems redundand but doable

@mild veldt https://github.com/custom-components/information/issues/2

[hoary lava]

is it possible to make lovelace the default UI yet?

[raven nacelle]

@hoary lava https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/#setting-lovelace-as-the-default-ui

[hoary lava]

Thanks!

[glossy birch]

@hoary lava currently it is a per device setting. You have do that on each device you access the UI from

[twilit zodiac]

Hi all, I'm trying to figure out how I go about changing the picture-glance card to show the actual temperature rather than a thermometer icon I have to click on. Can someone explain the difference between a card written in the format of picture glance which extends NavigationMixin and the example card that extends HTMLElement and which one I should be using? Also, creating a copy of the picture-glance card in www and calling it from ui-lovelave.yaml doesn't work so is there something more needed?

[buoyant skiff]

morning

[tender wasp]

@twilit zodiac built-in elements like picture-glance use libraries and apis that are only available to built-in elements. Simply copying one of these elements as a custom element won't work. Custom elements should encapsulate all logic and libraries they need in order to render their content. If you look at the advanced example you can see it imports the npm modules it needs using unpkg

[twilit zodiac]

@tender wasp thank you, that helps a great deal. Onwards...

[mild veldt]

@buoyant skiff sensor updated

[buoyant skiff]

sweet

[mild veldt]

untappd is looking hot

[buoyant skiff]

haha indeed

[mild veldt]

now, to bed

[buoyant skiff]

now coffee 😄

[buoyant skiff]

yay my greeter card finally has dynamic background

sooo nice

[subtle rune]

I will implement the greeter card today I think, @buoyant skiff ! It can be combined with conditional, right?

[buoyant skiff]

havent tried

but feel free to try 😃

gonna update it now

[subtle rune]

I would really like different user uis now, my husband and I don't want the same information in the greeter card I think 😄

[wheat current]

Set up a facedetection camera for it 😉

[subtle rune]

On the phone? 🙃

[wheat current]

it has a fronfacing camera, but that will probably be harder 😛

[subtle rune]

If there was any way to detect which phone it was that opened the app that would do, but I don't think there is..? Or there should be some way, since lovelace default is per device

Would be neat to have the same but set a different view in lovelace as default

lovelace/isa for me and lovelace/stefan for hubby for example

Should be doable, right? If someone wants to

[empty mulch]

@subtle rune user management?

[wheat current]

You should be able to detect some things with JS, maybe even the logged in user in local_storrage?

[subtle rune]

@empty mulch not necessarily right now, just forward "Overview" to different views in ll

someone should try that 😎

[buoyant skiff]

there has been some requests for user managment

seen it here and there

[subtle rune]

How is the lovelace ui default setting saved right now? Since it's per device

Cookie?

[buoyant skiff]

think so

[subtle rune]

Hm, I don't see it in the cookie. Will have to look in the code

[wheat current]

You are lucky, I don't see any cookies 😦

My jar is empty 😮

[subtle rune]

It's in local storage

Should or shouldn't I open an issue about maybe enabling setting a certain lovelace view as default per device, instead of just /lovelace? 😶 Thinking it might be a while until user management does this and I think it would be a great in the meantime feature for a lot of ppl?

[wheat current]

localStorage.authToken was crepy :S

[buoyant skiff]

https://sharethelove.io/cards/greeter-card

updated

[subtle rune]

Wow, even prettier @buoyant skiff !

[buoyant skiff]

tnx

added google fonts to it

[wheat current]

Untill this gets implemented in the core, I think a JS file like the "kiosk" mode that are handling the redir is a doable soulution?

[buoyant skiff]

the none part in the corner is supposed to be author

waiting on ludeeus to fix that 😛

hint

[subtle rune]

@wheat current If you say so 😄

[wheat current]

I would love to see this yesterday but I think the focus will be on the core first, after that we will get lovelace capabilities 🤷

[subtle rune]

Surely. I have no idea how to do it, otherwise I could try

[wheat current]

Same here 😂

[subtle rune]

I could probably do a hack on my own hass and alter the file that sets default, but that would be overwritten the next time I update..

[buoyant skiff]

not pleased with the border text

[subtle rune]

which one is the border text?

[buoyant skiff]

@wheat current remove the name and only have the username in next patch

[wheat current]

That does not comply with the API requirements

[buoyant skiff]

ok the problem is that its too long at the moment

self._author = ' @' + data['user']['username'] + ' (Unsplash)'

looks awesome

but isnt complaint

but if we add a full name and additional bs

[wheat current]

Full name of author and "Unsplash" is the requirements

[buoyant skiff]

different attribs ?

still complaint

[wheat current]

should be

@buoyant skiff you can use this instead of creating a template sensor to grab an attribute ;)
https://github.com/custom-cards/state-attribute-element

[buoyant skiff]

yeah i know but there is more future proofing with going with a template

if there are changes etc then your custom stuff might break

[wheat current]

more work 😛

[buoyant skiff]

indeed it is

but safer for the user

now the card is fully complaint with unsplash api

[subtle rune]

I only need to register unsplash to get those images? If I want to use my own I can just replace the camera entity?

[buoyant skiff]

you can make a collection on unsplash

and get them from that collection

just grab the collection id

[subtle rune]

Oh, alright, then I'll give it a try

[buoyant skiff]

and all images can be public or private 😃

so just add collection_id: your number to the collection

and voila you got your own images

the collection id is in the url

[north spear]

@subtle rune you can set any page default per device

There is a localstorage setting for ttlhat

[wheat current]

do tell

[north spear]

Maybe a card would be helpful

[subtle rune]

Yeah I saw the localstorage setting, but I have to set it somehow 😄

[north spear]

One second (on mobile phone)

Use javascript console

[subtle rune]

Hard to do on a phone?

[north spear]

Damn it. Can’t find t. Not hard if you had a custom card to do it for you 😃

[subtle rune]

No, of course not! Feel like making one? 😂

[north spear]

Yeah

localStorage.defaultPage=‘lovelace/myview’

[subtle rune]

That's what I found too

[wheat current]

wow, it works 😄

[north spear]

Ok, I’ll publish a custom card for that

[subtle rune]

I love you! 😅

and this community

[north spear]

😅

❤

[storm lion]

I love you too Marius 💋

[alpine mason]

Hi all! I made some custom changes to my lovelace theme (including custom css thanks to last update). Everything is fine on a browser, but I can't find a way to display it properly on an iphone app? Has anyone done this before ?

[subtle rune]

What's not displaying properly?

[alpine mason]

First : when I change colors in my theme, they don't display on the app until I reset the app. And second : I have a custom css loaded in web version but not displayed in the app

I tried app version and a web page saved in my iphone homepage

[subtle rune]

App is caching css

[alpine mason]

But there-'s no way to clear css cache I guess

[subtle rune]

Yes, you can force update of css file by adding versioning to the file import

add ?v=1 after the file import, and then you just up the number

then it will reload

[alpine mason]

Perfect! I didn't think of add version, thanks you!

Do you use a custom css in your theme?

[subtle rune]

Not yet, no

[alpine mason]

Just tried it now, and the css still doesn't apply... Maybe the file isn't loaded but hard to debug from the app. I'll make some tests and share if I ever find a solution

[subtle rune]

@buoyant skiff I don't understand exactly what the accuweather script does

Is it the "no percipitation in -- minutes"?

[buoyant skiff]

yes

it uses the accuweather minute forcast

https://www.accuweather.com/en/se/boras/315908/minute-weather-forecast/315908

its this

its a prediction on the weather seemed like a fun thing to have

we got the long forecast already

so i thought i do a small one 😛

[subtle rune]

I bike to work so it's great to know if rain is coming!

[buoyant skiff]

one of my hdds crashed today

saving it now

the partition got fucked up :S

but its correcting it now so will try and answer more questions but only when i have some downtime

that hdd contained most of my music from my dj days

think the heat got to it

[half cradle]

just did a migrate and found a lot of my stuff didnt come accross, any thoughts ??

[subtle rune]

What did you use for migration, @half cradle

[half cradle]

@subtle rune just the thing in the Hass.io store

[subtle rune]

Any specific type of thing that didn't work or random?

[half cradle]

@subtle rune all my sensors are not there

[buoyant skiff]

hdd is saved

thank fucking god

[half cradle]

@subtle rune all of the scenes not there

[subtle rune]

I haven't used the addon so I don't really know, but maybe someone else knows.

[half cradle]

@subtle rune all good, silly me i had already built it a little and then thought the addon would do a better job lol

[buoyant skiff]

@half cradle thats not nice to say

dale did an awesome jhob

job*

[half cradle]

@buoyant skiff i didnt say anything bad i thought

sorry if i did i didnt mean to

[buoyant skiff]

again just migrating isnt magicially gonna make your ui look better

something are still in the works and that addon is being worked on

so its not a total solution

[half cradle]

@buoyant skiff yea mate it did look good, didnt say it didnt all i said it was missing a few thing

[buoyant skiff]

it gets you 90% of the way

the rest is up to you

[half cradle]

100% like i say didnt say it didnt

and didnt bag it out at all i just asked a questions , didnt know we couldnt do that

[viral sorrel]

is there a way to show when a sensor was last updated like with custom-ui?

[subtle rune]

@viral sorrel Yes, in entities card

Secondary info

[viral sorrel]

and this automatically works with any entities card like monster-card for example?

[subtle rune]

I would guess so

[viral sorrel]

awesome.. thank you

[buoyant skiff]

yay backing up hdd

this has been a brutal morning 😛

gonna need me a couple of beers today 😛

thought i was gonna chillax and do more lovelace cards

❤

epic

[storm lion]

that is awesome

[buoyant skiff]

.sharethelove @storm lion the card is there now'

[kind shell]

@storm lion A place for LoveLace Config https://sharethelove.io/

[viral sorrel]

hm.. actually.. not sure how you'd add last changed in a monster-card

[buoyant skiff]

begin with setting up last change as a normal entity

then go for moster card

once you got it set up

[viral sorrel]

that would double my entities :/

almost

[subtle rune]

Hm. I will try later. Pretty sure it should work

[viral sorrel]

where to put it though?

[buoyant skiff]

not even sure what your going for @viral sorrel

so its kinda hard to help

[viral sorrel]

all sensor entities to have the last changed under them

and lights.. maybe all entities

[buoyant skiff]

it supports wildcard

so

[viral sorrel]

ie

[wheat current]

              include:
                - entity_id: "sensor.*"
                  options:
                    secondary_info: last-changed

[buoyant skiff]

bingo

[viral sorrel]

oh is THAT where it would go

does it work for domains?

[wheat current]

yes

[buoyant skiff]

@wheat current backing up now 😛

[viral sorrel]

works great 😃

[subtle rune]

Great! Thought is should work

I wonder if the script for splitting the config works in hassio

My lovelace file is totally unbearably long already

[buoyant skiff]

haha

1700+ lines

my god this was even nicer now

the greeter card is my favorite card

[viral sorrel]

yeah.. packages for lovelace would be nice

[buoyant skiff]

packages ?

[viral sorrel]

equivalent

way to split lovelace

[buoyant skiff]

ive gotten used to that file being big

[viral sorrel]

big files increase the potential for problems :/

[buoyant skiff]

not in this case

cause your not templating in it

like you did with the old ui

[viral sorrel]

in all cases 😛 it's a basic human uix thing

[buoyant skiff]

think your overthinking it

[viral sorrel]

even if you only split by views that would be an improvement

[wheat current]

is that no longer supported?

[viral sorrel]

I didn't realise it was ever supported?

[wheat current]

it was, but there where indications that it would be removed, so no one implemented it in their config 😛

[viral sorrel]

ui-lovelace-*.yaml referenced from main config... or seperately for each lovelace-ui file.. that would be enough

would let you split as you wish

[wheat current]

https://github.com/thomasloven/homeassistant-lovelace-gen

[fierce musk]

what hardware are most of you running lovelace ui on? tablets with browser?

[viral sorrel]

that's great.. would be even better if it was integrated 😛

at this stage I'm hardware agnostic.. but I plan on rpi's with 7" touchscreen in future

[buoyant skiff]

runnin it on my rpi3 with an ssd

booting from ssd

then whatever browser i got at the moment on what ever device i come over

no real magic behind lovelace

[fierce musk]

ahh yeah I meant for the UI

[buoyant skiff]

not that perforamce demanding

[north spear]

@buoyant skiff @subtle rune I have a 1st crude version of the card. Not pretty but happy to get testers 😃

[fierce musk]

currently got an old samsung galaxy tab 7 for control panel purposes, have been pondering picking up a chinese yumcha 10" tablet though

[buoyant skiff]

ohh give give @north spear

[north spear]

https://github.com/ciotlosm/custom-lovelace/tree/home-setter/home-setter

[buoyant skiff]

ty

[wheat current]

@viral sorrel !include file still works, but it may be removed

[subtle rune]

@north spear Count me in!

[viral sorrel]

I wonder if there could be a nice way for glance cards to show last changed

[subtle rune]

I would like dividers for glance cards too

[north spear]

it's a very basic card, but should do the work , but it's not that pretty

[subtle rune]

I didnt make any includes in my file since I didnt want to hassle of removing them later

[north spear]

sample

[buoyant skiff]

sweet

[viral sorrel]

oh.. this is a cool idea that I never even considered before 😛

[north spear]

have a play with it, let me know improvements

[buoyant skiff]

seems to be working just fine

[north spear]

I didn't invest in making it pretty as I assumed this would get hidden in a deep settings view

[viral sorrel]

I'm sure @buoyant skiff will add an inspirational background image ;P

[wheat current]

Pairing that with "kiosk" works great :)
Now I can have a "onboarding" page for the various devices 😃

[subtle rune]

How does it know the device names?

[viral sorrel]

seems more like a category?

and maybe use cookies?

[subtle rune]

I mean how do I know the device name to write 😃

[wheat current]

"Title"?

[viral sorrel]

seems like whatever you want 😛

[north spear]

the tile is free

you just need path to be correct

title is just to know what you want that to be

[subtle rune]

ah, I misunderstand. Thought I was supposed to write the title of the device so it could pair them. I see now

[north spear]

you can even use old dashboard there for example

or some other view

[viral sorrel]

I immediately imagined it was more about having a client choose their lovelace interface

[north spear]

just check the path in the browser when you're on the right page... name it as you wish in the card and you're done

[wheat current]

path: lovelace/7/kiosk 😄

[viral sorrel]

oh? ANY path?

[north spear]

yes @viral sorrel

[viral sorrel]

path: states

[north spear]

works

[subtle rune]

My name turnes up "undefined" though

[wheat current]

That means "not defined" 😂

[subtle rune]

Smartass 😛

[viral sorrel]

lol

[north spear]

      - type: custom:home-setter
        pages:
          - name: Home
            path: lovelace/0
          - name: Bedroom
            path: lovelace/1

[subtle rune]

Yeah, look at the example 😛

on github

[viral sorrel]

btw.. if you shove someone into a path.. can they still choose the other views?

[subtle rune]

Says title, not name

[north spear]

oh crap, that was initial version 😦

sorry

fixing it

[subtle rune]

Now it works! 😃

[wheat current]

look in the js, it clearly say .name 😛

[subtle rune]

Yup.

[north spear]

@wheat current my bad with docs, usually I get them right

😃

[wheat current]

Usually I don't read them 😂

[subtle rune]

works like a charm

[north spear]

anyway, just don't blame the code, I did this in a rush 😃

[wheat current]

Code was is good 😃

[subtle rune]

Wonderful job Marius, thank you SO much!

[north spear]

you're welcome

I'll push this to master than

so people can use it with tracker card in case someone gets a nicer style

[subtle rune]

It's great to be able to have different default for both different ppl and different devices, like one for mobile and one for computer

Together with conditional I see lots of dynamic shit happening 😉

[north spear]

😄

it's browser based at the moment. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm mmmmmmmmmm

maybe, just maybe I can simulate something if I can find where user is saved on client side

I'll have a look tomorrow

[viral sorrel]

user support would make this even more incredible..

[subtle rune]

Works with the ios app

[viral sorrel]

I don't even have users yet but that would be a reason to start

[alpine mason]

Hello again! So I'm still trying to use a custom css for my theme. Thing is, it works well with Firefox, but styles aren't used in Safari (Web or mobile). My css file is loaded, though. Any idea?

[subtle rune]

all css sadly doesn't behave the same cross browser

[viral sorrel]

there are services which offer rendering for multiple platforms that you could use to debug

multiple BROWSERS rather

ie https://www.browserstack.com/

[alpine mason]

Actually, I'm not too bad with css usually 😃 It doesn't look like a cross-platform issue, all rules are just ignored by safari

I'm checking how css files are called by home assistant

[viral sorrel]

then you could use browserstack to check if it's just YOUR safari

[polar kelp]

localstorage, huh... bet I could use that for the media player card...

[subtle rune]

@polar kelp What media player card? 😮

[storm lion]

https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/media-control/

(I imagine anyway)

[subtle rune]

I imagine a custom one

[storm lion]

hope so 🤞 - would love to be able to have a remote like "universal media player" with a state change or something in it..

That's probably do-able already thinking it through 🤔

That fitbit card on sharethelove.io is very nice, who's work is that?

[subtle rune]

@mild veldt

[storm lion]

very nice indeed... I'm thinking of doing one for my bin collections, tidy the way that's displayed up a bit

[wheat current]

Good idea, will it have a graph?

[storm lion]

can do, what would you want the graph to show?

[subtle rune]

I'm pissed off that Nvidia shield seems so hard to integrate into hass. That's about the only thing we use for media...

[wheat current]

Not sure, it want graphs but have no idea for what yet 😂

[storm lion]

I thought that was one of the best media players out there from what I have been reading?

[subtle rune]

The Shield is great! Just not getting the info in hass 😛

[storm lion]

I'm still toying with the idea of sticking a ibeacon to the bottom of my bin with resin to track if it's in it's "rest location"or if I've put it out of not...

It can't be any worse than my firetv?

[subtle rune]

@storm lion That's exactly what I plan to do with my bin.

[polar kelp]

@subtle rune I'm experimenting with using a lovelace card as a media player. I.e. you can send TTS messages or stream audio to it.

[wheat current]

Can't you sideload fully browser on a shield?

[storm lion]

I think I got the idea from you actually @subtle rune 😉

[subtle rune]

@wheat current I can sideload yes, but I don't know what fully broswer is

[polar kelp]

I got it working on an android tablet and my iphone. So things seem promising. I just need some way to identify the receiving device.

[subtle rune]

@storm lion I did talk about it on the podcast

[wheat current]

NVM... I need coffee...

[storm lion]

that'd be it then!

before that I was thinking of a load sensor of some sort

I guess @wheat current you could stick a ir distance sensor under the lid of the bin to see how quickly it fills etc if you really wanted a graph!

[kind shell]

Ludeeus is away for 3s with a message :point_right: Lurking in the shadows.

[buoyant skiff]

yawwwn

nap was nice

back up is still rolling strong

[polar kelp]

@storm lion Or an ultrasonic range finder with the added benefit of keeping rats out.

[storm lion]

true, true.. can see the bin men destroying whatever it is fast though

[fierce musk]

@storm lion which ibeacon hardware would you use for that? toying with the same idea.

[storm lion]

no idea I guess room-assistance?

[mild veldt]

smart garbage cans...? you guys are nuts

[buoyant skiff]

soon the trashcans will take over

just you watch

this is how the apocalypse starts

😛

[fierce musk]

haha

[mild veldt]

throwing banana peels at us to slip on

[fierce musk]

@mild veldt more like the GF and i always think the other person has put the bins out. both shiftworkers so sometimes i dont even know what day it is

[mild veldt]

...dear god...

@storm lion I made a Roku remote in Lovelace, but didn't integrate with the media_player domain really as I wanted to do a lot of things that are not currently supported by the media_player like the home button and what not. Used a node-red flow instead as the Roku api is super easy to work with

Should put it up on sharethelove

[storm lion]

Lol, less making them smart, more helping make me smart 😉

sounds good @mild veldt - so the firetv just says I'm watching plex or netflix.. need to write something that, if watching plex will switch the play and pause over the the plex media player and grab the attribute detials etc... just need to get around to it I think

[wheat current]

@mild veldt If the api is simple, write a component for it 😉

[buoyant skiff]

but a component isnt gonna do the ui

[wheat current]

But the service the component exposes can 😉

[buoyant skiff]

and it already has a component

[mild veldt]

@wheat current @buoyant skiff It has a basic media_player component which does mostly what all other media_player components do, which is great, but there is additional things the Roku can do that are not in the official component. A custom_component is the way to go, but I also wanted an excuse to check out node-red ;P

I want to finish my component for Trakt before anything else

[subtle rune]

My only wish is to be able to get what's playing on the Shield. Control would be nice, but not necessary. I can get what's casted and if we are looking at plex, but not any other

[storm lion]

so the fire-tv if I just have netflix open then it just say's playing "Netflix" which is useless...

[coarse monolith]

can you change the icon for an entity in picture-glance? am I missing it in the docs?

[storm lion]

even if it's paused... that caused me to stop using an automation to dim lights when "playing" tv

[buoyant skiff]

@coarse monolith customize

[storm lion]

I guess you could monitor bandwidth to that device maybe... but it'd still be caching when its paused... I assume the Shield has exactly the same problem

[buoyant skiff]

thats where you can change the icon

[coarse monolith]

@buoyant skiff got it. Thanks. Was hoping we could do it dynamically in lovelace....

[mild veldt]

@storm lion I think all app based media devices are like that

[buoyant skiff]

icons are handled by backend

[storm lion]

need a Netflix api then 😛

[buoyant skiff]

if you want more dynamic icons you have to template for it

[mild veldt]

Yeah. That won’t happen

[buoyant skiff]

i got an example on

[mild veldt]

Netflix is locked down tight

[buoyant skiff]

.sharethelove

[kind shell]

A place for LoveLace Config https://sharethelove.io/

[buoyant skiff]

check out the greetercard

that has dynamic icons

based on events

[storm lion]

Yeah true.. one can hope though

[mild veldt]

Would be great though to see what you are playing on Netflix or Hulu or whatever else and not just that the app is running

[buoyant skiff]

https://netflix.github.io/genie/docs/3.0.0/rest/

[mild veldt]

Shut up toast...

[buoyant skiff]

lol

ok

[mild veldt]

“Look at me I can google”

[buoyant skiff]

🎉

[mild veldt]

Lol

[storm lion]

he who googled it can fix it!

[buoyant skiff]

yepp its locked down tight nobody can get it

cause stearing ye old google can be tough

[mild veldt]

But...my assumptions never lie to me...

My world is crumbling before me...

[coarse monolith]

@buoyant skiff what about tap actions for picture-glance?

[buoyant skiff]

what about it ?

dont want any ?

[mild veldt]

@storm lion going that route you would need to support all media playback apps on the fire tv then...sounds messy without something just from the device itself. Maybe the firetv library can be updated?

[storm lion]

basically google need to sort it.

chromecast v8 fire-tv killer

[mild veldt]

I need a UI with remote

Until chrome cast can give me that, it’s a no go

For me

[buoyant skiff]

that should be possible import the mediaplayer into a picture element

that should be possible

in theory atleast

[mild veldt]

@buoyant skiff meant the device itself

[buoyant skiff]

ah

[coarse monolith]

@buoyant skiff do they work like on the glance?

Also, documentation states:

CONFIGURATION VARIABLES

icon
(string)(Optional)Overwrites default icon.

[buoyant skiff]

tap action is default on glance

so when you push the button you get the graph

really havent found that much use for picture glance

[coarse monolith]

I'm trying to utilize it with a Wyze Pan Camera - the move left/right, up/down come through as Cover entities - would like to use the Tap Action to put a separate button for each service call

[buoyant skiff]

doubt you can do that with picture glance

would opt for picture elements instead

https://sharethelove.io/cards/neato-vaccum-card

take a peak at that

to see how i used the neato camera for setting up a custom card

[coarse monolith]

perfect - didn't realize they supported cameras!

[buoyant skiff]

well they dont really but you can workaround it 😛

[mild veldt]

@coarse monolith You could do that using dummy input_booleans probably and set the service_call approriately

You'll need to do that either way, using glance or elements, I think

[buoyant skiff]

        - type: image
          entity: camera.neato_cleaning_map
          camera_image: camera.neato_cleaning_map
          tap_action: none
          style:
            transform: none
            top: 0%
            left: 0%
            width: 100%
            height: 100%
            z-index: 0

and the have an transparent png the same size and the camera image

then set the camera as an overlay to the card

and on the next layer buttons etc

[mild veldt]

I need to play around with those z-indices. Have some spicy ideas

[buoyant skiff]

their not really nessary if you place the image at the top of the elements

but i rather be safe then sorry

[wheat current]

speaking of "rather be safe then sorry", backup done?

[buoyant skiff]

its backing up 😄

its taking its sweet time

only 1tb to backup

[civic sedge]

Just tryed the new UI out.
started with Dale`s migration script - loaded up
and changed it with Atom - couldnt Write - so i removed the file via console and saved it again - but now it wont show up - do I need a file permisson od did i got a typo?

[wheat current]

Could be both

[civic sedge]

just deleted almost everything - nope

lets chech permissions xP

[buoyant skiff]

so small minute changes that has to be done so that the greeter card works on all resolutions since the changes

tedious work

[civic sedge]

mhmm

-rw-r--r--  1 homeassistant homeassistant        594 Aug  6 13:51 ui-lovelace.yaml```

[buoyant skiff]

doesnt need more

[mild veldt]

@civic sedge classic permissions bamboozle

[buoyant skiff]

hell if you watch BRUH vids everything should have 777 as permission

l33t

[civic sedge]

I think It wont help me much when I google permissions bamboozle 😄

[buoyant skiff]

its supposed to be 644

644 means that files are readable and writeable by the owner of the file and readable by users in the group owner of that file and readable by everyone else. 755 is the same thing, it just has the execute bit set for everyone. The execute bit is needed to be able to change into the directory.

so im seriously doubting that your having permission issues

wonder if i should do a soundcloud player for hass 😛

[civic sedge]

Well I could say my motto is - When you have no clue you just ask and while waiting poke it with a stick

[buoyant skiff]

so we got all the files basically

does the regular ui load ?

[civic sedge]

Jup - Just lovelake just writhing reload UI

[buoyant skiff]

@mild veldt did u test the untappd badges yesterday ?

so you get an reload ui at the bottom @civic sedge ?

[civic sedge]

oooh thats mean!

I just clicked around and market accidentally something

[buoyant skiff]

"accident"

😛

[civic sedge]

there is a failure text

while parsing a block collection in "/home/homeassistant/.homeassistant/ui-lovelace.yaml", line 82, column 11 expected <block end>, but found '?' in "/home/homeassistant/.homeassistant/ui-lovelace.yaml", line 87, column 11
``` that makes live easyer

[buoyant skiff]

so that block is not indended properly

[civic sedge]

https://imgur.com/a/Tdu96Um

[buoyant skiff]

yeah u posted

open the yaml

go to that line

and fix it

[civic sedge]

and without
https://imgur.com/a/7HJrSXG
just wantet to show off at what i stared the last half hour to fix

[mild veldt]

@buoyant skiff yeah, I have it working in my instance. You having issues?

[buoyant skiff]

been having

[mild veldt]

well you did check-in a lot of bugs 😃

[buoyant skiff]

nice glad too see im doing my part 😄

[mild veldt]

lol

anything in devinfo?

[buoyant skiff]

unloaded it so i could work on lovelace

and most of the morning has been a rescue action of a crashed hdd

so havent had time to check back

But Ludeeus spotted some bugs that he fixed

so there is a new rev up

[mild veldt]

so you've only got excuses for me, eh?

[buoyant skiff]

yepp

[mild veldt]

lol

[buoyant skiff]

again working with me is an disappointment for both of us

[mild veldt]

yeah, we were hitting the rate limit

getting updates on our beer drinking every 2 minutes was probably a bit much, lol

[wheat current]

not fast enough!

[buoyant skiff]

indeed

its not fast enough

hyperspeed

[mild veldt]

@wheat current , we need to talk about your drinking problem...

i.e. you're not drinking fast enough

[buoyant skiff]

from bottle to belly instant

[wheat current]

I know, but there is coding to do 😛

[mild veldt]

solution: camelbak full of beer

[buoyant skiff]

almost forgot how nice my studio monitors are

Rokit 5 monitors

the sound is amazing

my neighbours must hate me

[civic sedge]

cheap.. 120€ isnt bad at all

[buoyant skiff]

does the trick and gets me where i want to go with the music

[civic sedge]

got 2 pairs of Behringer MS40
but they got a ugly sound when they got no imput and set up to loud

[queen island]

?rank Other

[lost hatch]

@queen island, you joined Other.

[raven nacelle]

@buoyant skiff You can possibly combine your greeter card with Unsplash

[buoyant skiff]

already combined

😃

and avaialble on sharethelove

[raven nacelle]

cool....

[buoyant skiff]

ludeeus just made a cool camera component

that combines feeds

from multiple cameras

https://github.com/custom-components/camera.combined

[raven nacelle]

and then it rotates?

[buoyant skiff]

might be fun to play around with

[raven nacelle]

What does combined feed mean there?

[buoyant skiff]

@wheat current can explain that 😃

[wheat current]

https://github.com/custom-components/camera.combined/commit/39b85a1cdaf4e2733b596e196e10a965c0df65f8
"This will rotated the cameras showing a 10 second feed from each camera before moving along to the next."

documentation is not one of my "strenghts" 😛

[raven nacelle]

You are doing great 👍

[wheat current]

Thanks 😃

[frosty pelican]

that is awesome @wheat current keep it up!!!

[buoyant skiff]

ludeeus will have his own color here on discord soon 😛

[wheat current]

Transparent 😄

[buoyant skiff]

haha

[north spear]

Maybe: "This will rotate the camera feeds, showing a 10 second feed from each camera before displaying the next one" ?

[wheat current]

Thanks :)
https://github.com/custom-components/camera.combined/commit/2a9dd31d733b017b0a578ba5b54cb1585a29be30

[mild veldt]

I need to make a shinobi component. I have the add-on from @fading sorrel but would be cool to be able to start recording from a feed

[storm lion]

great component @wheat current

[coarse monolith]

@mild veldt what add-on? can you point me at it?

[worldly flame]

@wheat current I can't get your Tautulli card to work, ive got the new custom component, i get the sensors in my old UI, but the card in lovelace is lacking all information. Don't know how to proceed from here

[wheat current]

Defatult theme?

[worldly flame]

yeah no extra themes etc

[wheat current]

if so add color: white to style:

[worldly flame]

gonna check

hmm no difference, I do and I

[buoyant skiff]

.share

[kind shell]

:point_down:

Format Code:

Please use https://www.hastebin.com to share code.

[worldly flame]

I've always had the "Now Playing:" text show

but thats about it

[buoyant skiff]

show us the snipplet of the card

[worldly flame]

https://www.hastebin.com/hobupukiwo.bash

[buoyant skiff]

errr

text: "<b style='color: orange; font-size: 18px'>Now Playing: </b>" <---

[worldly flame]

omg dont tell me html got me again

[buoyant skiff]

wtf that shouldnt be there

[worldly flame]

its in the code https://sharethelove.io/cards/tautulli-card

[buoyant skiff]

@wheat current why is there html there ?

[worldly flame]

phew not me this time :p

[wheat current]

@buoyant skiff To have it differatiate from the state 😉

[buoyant skiff]

yeah but it shouldnt be there

[mortal cape]

custom text element

[wheat current]

yes it should I put it there

[buoyant skiff]

would have done it diffently

[wheat current]

@worldly flame Can you share a picure of it?

[worldly flame]

sure, 1 sec gotta restore my poking in the code

hmm wont paste

[wheat current]

Send it to me in a PM 😉

[raven nacelle]

@north spear It will be nice to have something like https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant-polymer/pull/1495 for your alarm card. Guessing it will be a new card right?

[north spear]

@raven nacelle not sure what you mean. You mean to have arm/disarm in entities row for alarm ?

[raven nacelle]

yeah...an entity row for alarm.

instead of a whole card....like they are doing in that PR

[north spear]

that is unrelated to my alarm card, is more related to entities card as the alarm object/ entity is not custom

might be worth raising an issue on the ui-schema repo

[raven nacelle]

Sure....will do

[mild veldt]

@coarse monolith It's a hassio add-on in the community repo

Add this repo if you haven't already https://github.com/hassio-addons/repository

[buoyant skiff]

@subtle rune Ludeeus gave me an awesome idea

started to setup longer cards

and he suggested that i do 3 of em and using panel true

[subtle rune]

Oh?

[buoyant skiff]

that might be useful if your doing something for you and your husband

[subtle rune]

I don't get the use case

Or do you mean that you can have them on the same view?

[buoyant skiff]

like greeter card on one

planstatus on the other

and misc of the third

[subtle rune]

oh you mean like that!

[buoyant skiff]

way more area to mess around with

[subtle rune]

Sounds good

[buoyant skiff]

im thinking of redoing it instead of having small cards

3 long ones on each page

then adding info to em

[subtle rune]

Sounds like it has potential!

[mild veldt]

@buoyant skiff how you doing longer cards like that? Just css height style?

[buoyant skiff]

nope

simple image

4000x3000px

using the images from unsplash

[mild veldt]

cool, and then you'll just throw 3 cards on it using picture elements, you're thinking?

[buoyant skiff]

yeah

then adding border text

coming in from the left and the right

could look great

[mild veldt]

i don't follow (ian doesn't speak css-nerd)

😃

by border text do you mean just a border? i can't visualize it

[buoyant skiff]

look at the greeter card

kinda like that but

--->
<---

so first line left

second line right

urgh still working on my backup

taking forever but atleast i got my data back

[mild veldt]

greeter card page looks to be broken

[buoyant skiff]

yeah noticed that it happens when someone submits a pr

the site goes fubar

[mild veldt]

well, i blame you 100%

just so you know

[buoyant skiff]

ofc 😄

master of breakage

syncing up now

should look ok now

thats what i mean with border text

lol the whole site is broken

urgh i dont have the energy to fix that today

[mild veldt]

okay, now for the real question...

what is this "pinball event"?

and why didn't you invite me?

[buoyant skiff]

we have a pinball arcade hall where i live

around 250 machines

i helpout and fix the games and play

fun side hobby besides drinking beer

[mild veldt]

@wheat current broke the page again...classic Ludeeus 😃

[kind shell]

Ludeeus is away for 1h 36m 15s with a message :point_right: Lurking in the shadows.

[wheat current]

@mild veldt well... you have to break some eggs to make an omelette 😉

[prime umbra]

anyone have the new Home setter card working?

[wheat current]

Yes

[prime umbra]

was trying to setup but not showing nothing on frontend hehe

          - type: custom:home-setter
            title: test
            pages:
          - name: Main
            path: lovelace/0
          - name: Mobile
            path: lovelace/mobile

have put that on ui-lovelace
created on www a folder lovelace and 0 folder and mobile folder
with inside mobile folder a mobile.yaml
and 0 folder with a 0.yaml

not sure if this the correct way to do it

[civic sedge]

can somebody tell me how to get some badges back?
had a realy nice dark sky Icon for the weather

Dont have to be a badge - only the symbol

[wheat current]

@prime umbra the paths are not folders but the URL when you navigate Lovelace views

[prime umbra]

@wheat current ahh ok but still I'm not getting nothing on frontend
i guess I'm not sure what to expect from it

or how this works

[buoyant skiff]

if your unsure what it does or what use you will have from it why try it ?

seems kinda redundant

[prime umbra]

im guessing to have diferent views betwen devices phones tablets etc.. ??

[north spear]

You define all views you need

Than set which one you want on each device using the card

The default set with the card on that device will load when accessing the /

[prime umbra]

ya that's what i thought, just not seeing no card for it

[north spear]

Did you add resorces for the card?

[prime umbra]

ya

  - url: /local/custom-lovelace/home-setter/home-setter.js?v=0.0.1
    type: js

[north spear]

Show me your config for the card

[prime umbra]

- type: custom:home-setter
            title: test
            pages:
          - name: Main
            path: lovelace/0
          - name: Mobile
            path: lovelace/mobile

[north spear]

Your alignment under pages is wrong

Move list to the right

[prime umbra]

ohh you correct
damm copy paste

[mild veldt]

i need black friday to be here so I can grab more cheap tablets to throw lovelace up around my house

[prime umbra]

@north spear thanks alot very nice job
this could be cool with the new users auth providers also

eatch user have a frontend skin layout etc....

[mild veldt]

@buoyant skiff want to throw up a untappd dashboard on a tablet next tomy bar that will cycle through me and my friend's check-ins

[buoyant skiff]

nice

[mild veldt]

not sure how to cycle, though. want to do it more often, but don't want to call the backend that often

i guess grab them like usually and use an automation to cycle through a list or something

[hot gyro]

@north spear any idea why all cards update apart from the ertical-stack-in-card ?

[mild veldt]

@wheat current there's nothing stopping refresh rate from being configurable, is there?

[hot gyro]

the .js sits in www ```-rw-rw-r-- 1 homeassistant homeassistant 1560 Jul 30 21:37 vertical-stack-in-card.js

[wheat current]

@mild veldt depends on where really 🤷

[north spear]

@hot gyro don’t know. Maybe @wheat current knows

[wheat current]

@hot gyro do you have ?v= under resources for that card?

[hot gyro]

    type: js``` thats at the moment - custom updater shows 0.0.6 available but it doesnt update as you can see as per file date

damn

stupid me .... thats not where it is

[north spear]

it was there initially as directory, than submodule, but I removed it and it got moved to custom-cards repo

[rotund island]

hi i was wondering i just went through my list of unused entities and found some entities that i'm have in my picture elemnts card ?

[north spear]

probably out of date js , apologies for the confusion

[hot gyro]

thats fine - not sure why I mussed that

[buoyant skiff]

@wheat current your idea about 3 horizontal cards is probly gonna look awesome

[mild veldt]

@rotund island can you rephrase that question? I don't understand

[buoyant skiff]

sample 😛

[mild veldt]

@buoyant skiff nice. Put each on a different but similar collection

[wheat current]

Should be 3 different images

[buoyant skiff]

ffs

[mild veldt]

lol

[buoyant skiff]

u guys do realize what a sample means

[mild veldt]

i.e. be better

[buoyant skiff]

that means doing it simple

[mild veldt]

it's means your slacking

[wheat current]

or a wide image that are split

[mild veldt]

*grammar

[buoyant skiff]

thank you sjabby

[sudden lion]

😄

[buoyant skiff]

guess those guys didnt know that

[mild veldt]

#roasted

[buoyant skiff]

they thought they was getting the real final product

[sudden lion]

So if you intend to show off that you can line up 3 of the same image your sample is good ! 😄

[mild veldt]

we just expect more from you @buoyant skiff

waiting for the day that @buoyant skiff rage quits #frontend-archived because of @wheat current and me

[wheat current]

😂

[buoyant skiff]

remember what we talked about

about expectations and disapointment

[mild veldt]

lol

[wheat current]

I expect nothing from nobody (myself included) never dissapointed 😄

[rotund island]

@mild veldt eer in lovelace in the upper right it is possible to click on "view unused entities" right ? you then get a list of unused entities

[mild veldt]

@rotund island yes

[buoyant skiff]

thats just leftovers 😄

[mild veldt]

okay, i see

so you have some in picture elements that are listed as unused?

[rotund island]

well the entities that appear in that list are actually used in one of my picture-elements card

bingo

[mild veldt]

are they in custom cards, perhaps?

not sure how "unused" is determined

[rotund island]

picture-elements isn't a custom card i think is it?

[mild veldt]

no, but you can have custom cards in it

if you're just using the official elements from the docs, then it may be a bug

[rotund island]

hmmm

[buoyant skiff]

see we got an evil circle going here

u expect stuff from me and ludeeus

i expect stuff from ludeeus and you

and ludeeus expect stuff from us

[sudden lion]

i would not call it an evil circle, i call it circle of life.

[mild veldt]

damn, I was hoping no one expected anything of me

[buoyant skiff]

trust me we make it evil 😛

[mild veldt]

@rotund island this would be the appropriate place to discuss: https://github.com/home-assistant/ui-schema/issues/2

[rotund island]

https://hastebin.com/bekerimira.bash

thanks @mild veldt just commented on that issue.

[worthy leaf]

I'm trying to load the tautaulli card from Share the love website, but it's just won't work. I installed everything as instructed. The card is loading but it is always empty, only the Now playing title is showing.

[buoyant skiff]

better now @mild veldt and @wheat current ?

@worthy leaf ask Ludeeus

😛

so now i need to fill em with content

[mild veldt]

acceptable

[buoyant skiff]

geez dont die of excitement

😛

[mild veldt]

glad to see that @wheat current and I could help

[tacit cave]

what happened to the hut?

[wheat current]

@worthy leaf if that is the only thing, the config for the first attribute is wrong

[sudden lion]

Not very interesting pictures.

[tacit cave]

went from 3 huts to a bunch of water

[buoyant skiff]

sjabby cant use xrated pics 😛

so just have to do with what you got

atleast they are dynamic so they change every 60 min

[sudden lion]

but still.. too much water.

[worthy leaf]

@wheat current yeah I noticed that in the example the sensor name is incorrect but even after I changed it it still not working.

[fair hamlet]

https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/picture-glance/#navigation_path
My first pass at a cover card.
I am using a picture-glance, it does not have any detail about the navigation path. I assume that is what I need to call a service? I need to open the door and close it.
How do you do that?

[mild veldt]

in all seriousness, this is looking great. i'm excited to see what come up with to throw on them

[buoyant skiff]

open the door by turning the knob

😂

[wheat current]

@worthy leaf its not incorrect in the example ;)
but you need to change the first one to your user where I had __ludeeus

[fair hamlet]

More info

      entities:
        - cover.almond_plus_garagedooropener_one__car_11_1
      title: "One Car Garage"

        "opening": /local/enterprise_shuttle_bay_cover/BayOpening.gif
      entity: cover.almond_plus_garagedooropener_one__car_11_1```
@buoyant skiff  lol

[tacit cave]

@fair hamlet, no its the navagation path to another casrd, not a service

view* (not card)

[wheat current]

enterprise_shuttle_bay_cover 😂

[worthy leaf]

@wheat current Oh, didn't expect that. I just thought that was some experimental stuff on your side that got into the example.

[wheat current]

nonono :)
The example is good 😃

[tacit cave]

so @fair hamlet give each view an id

[fair hamlet]

@wheat current Geek, what can I say.

[tacit cave]

then /<id> for the navagation path

actually its /lovelace/<id>

[fair hamlet]

So maybe picture glance is not what I need?

[tacit cave]

what are you trying to do

[fair hamlet]

When the picture is closed, open the door, when the picture is open, close the door. Some what like the arrows in the stock cover card.

[wheat current]

@buoyant skiff Add multiple collections to one camera by defining them like this: collection_id: "2461850,2467206"

[buoyant skiff]

the purpose ?

[wheat current]

Because you can 😃

@fair hamlet i don't think it's possible on any card

[wheat current]

@fair hamlet I think this is more what you are after https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/picture-entity/

set all the state_image's as you have them now, and define tap_action to toggle

[tacit cave]

Nevermind, @wheat current 's card is the way to go

[worthy leaf]

@wheat current changed the username, still not working. But now I noticed that the sensor itself might be the problem. The sensor name is: sensor.tautulli_none and the state is Not available

[wheat current]

if it's tautulli_none then it didn't find any users, that is the fallback name

[fair hamlet]

this did not help much https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/picture-entity/#tap_action
can the tap_action change based on the state of the entity?

Ok, just read the toggle

[tacit cave]

I'm guessing you have a cover?

[fair hamlet]

Yes. The non-lovelace works.

''' - type: picture-entity
entity: cover.almond_plus_garagedooropener_one__car_11_1
title: "One Car Garage"
tap_action: toggle
show_state: false
show_name: true
name: "One Car Garage"
state_image:
"closed": /local/enterprise_shuttle_bay_cover/BayClosed.jpg
"open": /local/enterprise_shuttle_bay_cover/BayOpened.jpg
"closing": /local/enterprise_shuttle_bay_cover/BayClosing.gif
"opening": /local/enterprise_shuttle_bay_cover/BayOpening.gif```

Should that not hide the state at the bottom?

It worked ! per say
The one car is just sitting on the bench. The two car one is installed, but don't want to test it till I am home. 😃

Should the show_sate: false hide the state?

[halcyon mantle]

I assigned custom icons to scripts in customize.yaml, it shows in more info, but not on the lovelace card. Is that expected behaviour or is there cache or something which might cause this?

The card: https://hastebin.com/agoziwozap.css

dammit - Spotted my own error...

😩 need some sleep - had a custom icon in customize.yaml, and an icon defined in the card

[mild veldt]

Are custom more-info cards possible?

[worthy leaf]

@wheat current I had to add quotes in the config file to make the sensor work. For example instead of port: 8181 use port: '8181'. Did not had to do that in any other sensor.

[wheat current]

Wired, I have just copy+pasted my config to the README and I have not that

[north spear]

@mild veldt probably. What did you have in mind?

[worthy leaf]

@wheat current also now that the sensor is working I still can't get the Now playing part to show plus it will also hide the statistic part. But if I comment it out the statistic will be shown.

[buoyant skiff]

@wheat current deffo keeping this layout

[wheat current]

if you copied the example it uses an attribute named s_senum_e do you have that attribute in your sensor?`

[worthy leaf]

@wheat current it's there but empty.

[mild veldt]

@north spear nothing in particular. Just curious of the limitations

[wheat current]

@buoyant skiff next mission, get a wide camera img to split like this :)
https://image.ibb.co/b9nWRK/image.png

[halcyon mantle]

Do you guys think lovelace will eventually overshadow/replace floorplan?

[tacit cave]

not sure about floorplan, but i believe it will in other areas

[wheat current]

Add blur effect to images :D

style:
  "-webkit-filter": blur(3px)

lover the px to make it sharper

[halcyon mantle]

I'm specifically thinking in the line of a picture like this, with elements mapped on it

https://www.google.co.za/imgres?imgurl=http%3A%2F%2Fcasaycolor.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2009%2F04%2FPlano-casa-3d-728x514.jpg&imgrefurl=http%3A%2F%2Fcasaycolor.com%2Fdiseno-de-interiores-en-3d%2F&docid=xfyqn82ookcBjM&tbnid=-SJOPc6IL0RX0M%3A&vet=10ahUKEwjV1sf_stncAhWJJ8AKHYWFDwcQMwhRKBMwEw..i&w=728&h=514&bih=732&biw=1536&q=home assistant svg 3d&ved=0ahUKEwjV1sf_stncAhWJJ8AKHYWFDwcQMwhRKBMwEw&iact=mrc&uact=8

if it can change state if a light goes on a room all the better

[wheat current]

You can do that now

[halcyon mantle]

my brownie points with my wife will be through the roof...

@wheat current Can you point me towards docs - no idea where to start

[wheat current]

https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/picture-elements/

[tacit cave]

@wheat current, you can map the objects to SVG objects?

[halcyon mantle]

I have no clue of svg - used them, but never created them...

[wheat current]

svg, png, jpg what ever you like with an image-element
or keep it simple with icon-element

[tacit cave]

@halcyon mantle my point is that the old floorplan has the ability to access objects inside an svg file.

I don't think the lovelace version can do that

[halcyon mantle]

Could be a stupid question, but I'm lost with this concept - For example if she taps the living room, how do I change the image that the living room lights up?

@tacit cave - I'll go read up a bit more on floorplan

[wheat current]

You kan have a single icon-element that changes color, or you can change out a img for it

[tacit cave]

it depends how particular you are about the placement of your svg elements. You can emulate the functionality with picture-elements, but the placement is configured in yaml, not inside the svg.

@wheat current yeah, but the other floor plan has access to the objects and shapes inside the svg file. So it see's it as objects, not an image. You can directly manipulate the objects in the old floorplan

[halcyon mantle]

I see a lot of reading in my future.... my elements on the image should be mainly quite basic... A light or two in each room, a few media players so far and that is about it

[tacit cave]

yes, that will work

I have that setup myself

[wheat current]

@tacit cave correct

[halcyon mantle]

@tacit cave - I like the idea if you click on the picture of for example a floorlamp it switches on and if you click the TV it switches on

@tacit cave - did you build that in lovelace with picture-elements?

[tacit cave]

yes

Mine is shitty looking but it gets the job done

how can I post a pic in here?

[halcyon mantle]

I believe you should post via third party

not sure though

My wife is a town planner - I think i'm going to task her to do the floorplan / 3D model....

[tacit cave]

https://imgur.com/a/nQF23wr

[halcyon mantle]

nice clean look

looking at it, I believe media players on there is going to make it messy, would rather keep them on a sperate page, and use the floorplan layout purely for lighting - basically on/off devices

[tacit cave]

This is what I do for media players

[halcyon mantle]

Thx! I will start fiddling with it...

first step is probably to dust off the tape measure to draw on scale.....

[tacit cave]

https://imgur.com/a/dCtPqEZ

I went to my builder and got a floorplan from them

#lazy

[halcyon mantle]

My house was built in 1942 - the plans are probably hand drawn, if they still exist

Those media players look cool - do the images change with the state?

[tacit cave]

yes

[halcyon mantle]

i like their look and feel - clean intuitive

[tacit cave]

Yep, that was my goal!

I just made all my images for the states 4:3 aspect ratio, then added all the buttons in a picture-glance card

the volume slider conditionally shows if one or 2 zones are on

[halcyon mantle]

really nice and clean - my media players is basically a TV with an AppleTV attached, TV with Chromecast, Google Home, then a bunch of audio receivers via Squeezebox including the GH.

[tacit cave]

Yah, so go grab a bunch of logo's from the internet

that's all i did

make sure you got SVG

because it looks cleaner when scaled in either direction (up or down in size)

[halcyon mantle]

Thx for the info - I'll start fiddling around tomorrow, now its first time for some sleep...

[calm rock]

is there a card , where you can add an icon in front of other entity? , for example two horizontal entities , one is just an icon , and the neighbor card is other "data" card , in this case a Big number one . https://imgur.com/a/zJAlTMf

avoiding the complexity of using an image card

[tacit cave]

I'm not sure I follow you. can you half ass draw a pic in paint?

[polar kelp]

It's done: https://github.com/thomasloven/audio-card

[tacit cave]

is that just a media player w/o an image?

[polar kelp]

No. It's the other side of the media player interface

It lets you use the browser as a speaker.

Say you have an ipad mounted on the wall as a home automation dashboard. This lets you play text-to-speech messages on it as well. Or anything that can be sent via the media_player.play_media service, really.

[tacit cave]

oh nice!

[fathom tree]

genius!

I'll have to try that.

[polar kelp]

Let me know how it works out.

[signal pine]

that is really slick

[polar kelp]

Just @ me any questions and I'll reply later. I should have gone to bed hours ago.

[mild veldt]

@halcyon mantle check this design out: https://community-home-assistant-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/optimized/2X/5/567fa67c6c79d5511c6a2236246728f0c7a04400_1_368x500.png

@calm rock picture-elements allows you to do whatever you want really. Employ z-index if you need layering

@halcyon mantle I'd also be careful with 3d modeling like the picture you gave. I imagine using it to turn things on/off would be frustrating if you didn't already know which things you could interact with (i.e. guests could not use it)

unless you make everything connected (smart bed, smart couch, smart vanity, etc)

[rocky merlin]

good work @polar kelp

I am gonna try the media player when I am home from work

Myself sadly had zero time for lovelace since I started working again after my summer holiday 😦

[buoyant skiff]

morning

[polar kelp]

Morning

Thanks @rocky merlin. I'm back at work too. But who needs sleep with two small kids anyway?

[buoyant skiff]

sleep is overrated

@polar kelp no images for the player itself ?

[polar kelp]

There's nothing to see.

No controlls or anything. Not even an empty card. It just plays sound.

[buoyant skiff]

ahh

k

[polar kelp]

I could potentially add an optional stop button, I guess... Might make sense.

[buoyant skiff]

https://github.com/willianjusten/awesome-audio-visualization

😉

ohh @polar kelp http://dimplejs.org/

u made that chart right ?

[polar kelp]

Huh? No? That was John Kiernander?

[buoyant skiff]

the chart card

[polar kelp]

No idea what you're talking about. So, no, I didn't. 😃

[buoyant skiff]

ok

neat found an issue with horizontal stacks and panel true

it kinda breaks the ui

[wheat current]

I only get that when using the kiosk "hack", after a restart of home Assistant, reload the page solves it for me

[polar kelp]

z-index problems?

[buoyant skiff]

no the images and card are under the blue ribbon

so everything pushes up under

when flipping from one page to another

or refreshing it

within ha

not reloading

i get this even if i restart ha

[wheat current]

So it's not limited to panel: true

[buoyant skiff]

nope

seems that panel true triggers it to happen though

[wheat current]

cool 👍 should open a issue at the polymer (frontend) repo

[buoyant skiff]

home-assistant-polymer <-- this one right ?

[wheat current]

yup 😃

[buoyant skiff]

just gonna do a double check with chrome

since im probly gonna be hassle about it

[north spear]

Audio card could use a free position equilizer

[buoyant skiff]

limited to firefox

so wonder what makes it go sideways in ff

so cant report it as a bug

@north spear do u have any clues what the issue can be ?

[north spear]

Hmm

[buoyant skiff]

can post the config if you want

[north spear]

Are custkm card settings enabled basef on faq?

[buoyant skiff]

ofc

its fairly simple to reproduce

the long images and panel true

add a second page

and no panel true there

ohh and the long images should be in a horizontal stack
