Does anyone know of a custom iframe card? I have a bunch (12) of 16:9 security cameras and they dont fit properly into the iframe card cos its the wrong aspect ratio. Dont want to use ffmpeg cos the cameras are set up to post a mjpeg every second and i dont wanna bog the cpu down w additional overhead

flat timber Dec 15, 2018, 4:18 AM

#

Is anyone here familiar with the custom AV card from sharethelove.io? It uses what it calls a "dormant sensor" for a tap action to call a Harmony command and I'm having trouble getting it to fire

cinder sable Dec 15, 2018, 9:04 AM

#

seems like sometime after the latest beta revision lovelace broke for me

#

started complaining about the IDs, that were until then autogenerated

prisma light Dec 15, 2018, 9:27 AM

#

I removed all of the Id’s working fine now

Anyone having problems with Lovelace after the 0.84.2 update? All of a sudden my configuration is broken

pure gate Dec 15, 2018, 10:00 AM

#

@boreal pawn I am also having lovelace issues after the 0.84.2 update. It no longer seems to use my ui-lovelace.yaml
rebooting hassio does not resolve the issue.

subtle rune Dec 15, 2018, 10:20 AM

#

@pure gate @boreal pawn Did you do it according to the breaking change?

boreal pawn Dec 15, 2018, 10:24 AM

#

Yeah I've got the same. @subtle rune what do you mean? I read the changelog and couldn't find any specifics that I had to do. Did I miss something?

subtle rune Dec 15, 2018, 10:26 AM

#

@boreal pawn "For existing Lovelace testers" here: https://www.home-assistant.io/blog/2018/12/12/release-84/

boreal pawn Dec 15, 2018, 10:28 AM

#

I did miss that, thanks alot. I only read through the github page

#

I'm gonna try that

#

Is it possible to specify width of a horizontal-stack ?

polar kelp Dec 15, 2018, 11:00 AM

#

It's either one column wide or the entire window.

#

Unless you nest them. Then they become thinner.

copper mural Dec 15, 2018, 11:09 AM

Thanks

I'm trying to get monster card to filter on friendly_name, but fail all the time.
Shouldn't this work to show automation.alarm_away_mode_armed (friendly_name: [Alarm] Away Mode Armed)?

        filter:
          include:
            - entity_id: "automation.*"
              attributes:
                friendly_name: '*[alarm]*'

scenic aspen Dec 15, 2018, 1:31 PM

#

I finally get that my ui-lovelace.yaml file is not used anymore, and the config is in storage. But where are my images stored now? I have image-cards, but they don't seem to use the images in config\www\images anymore.

#

Are the images imported to storage in some way?

vapid field Dec 15, 2018, 2:08 PM

#

is there any reason the home page would stop working when upgrading to the latest beta?

daring pier Dec 15, 2018, 3:11 PM

#

Good morning, I am updating from version 82.1 to the new 84.2, when I do I loose my front end. I tried to do as instructed (You can do this by opening the Lovelace UI and click on Configure UI, this will prompt you to change to storage mode.) but I do not see that option anywhere. Has anyone had this issue?

mild veldt Dec 15, 2018, 3:24 PM

#

@scenic aspen file and images paths are still to www folder

#

@daring pier you need to be at /lovelace

scenic aspen Dec 15, 2018, 3:28 PM

#

@mild veldt but if I rename a picture that is in use, it still shows. And I can't get imeges to show, even if I put them in the folder. So frustrating.

mild veldt Dec 15, 2018, 3:28 PM

#

Probably caching issue

#

You doing this via samba?

scenic aspen Dec 15, 2018, 3:29 PM

#

Yes

mild veldt Dec 15, 2018, 3:29 PM

#

And are you yaml or storage mode for editing?

scenic aspen Dec 15, 2018, 3:29 PM

#

Storage

mild veldt Dec 15, 2018, 3:30 PM

#

And how are you editing your config?

scenic aspen Dec 15, 2018, 3:30 PM

#

I see now that image is showing when I bropsw on my mobile.

mild veldt Dec 15, 2018, 3:30 PM

#

Caching. Cool

scenic aspen Dec 15, 2018, 3:30 PM

#

Thank you, must ble chrome on my laptop messing with me.

mild veldt Dec 15, 2018, 3:31 PM

#

Just need to clear the cache

#

F12 and then right click on refresh button

scenic aspen Dec 15, 2018, 3:33 PM

#

Sweet. Thank you @mild veldt

shadow smelt Dec 15, 2018, 3:48 PM

#

hi all

#

lovelace on chrome browser, when i refresh the page, all states updates to on or off. for example a binary_sensor motion goes from clear to off

#

lovelace in yaml mode

mild veldt Dec 15, 2018, 3:52 PM

#

@shadow smelt known issue. Fix will be in next beta

calm skiff Dec 15, 2018, 3:53 PM

#

Hi to all, now the tap_action on the glance card are not working for me

#

the default config is working but cant change it with tap_action

shadow smelt Dec 15, 2018, 3:54 PM

#

thanks @mild veldt sorry for the replication

mild veldt Dec 15, 2018, 3:54 PM

#

No worries

#

@calm skiff check the updated docs. Actions have changed

calm skiff Dec 15, 2018, 3:57 PM

#

@mild veldt sorry my fault, thanks for that

stoic solstice Dec 15, 2018, 4:11 PM

#

Just upgraded HA to 0.84.2 and now the lovelace url just gives a 404 not found error. Any ideas on that?

raven nacelle Dec 15, 2018, 4:16 PM

#

What release were you on before the update? @stoic solstice

stoic solstice Dec 15, 2018, 4:16 PM

#

0.81.4

raven nacelle Dec 15, 2018, 4:17 PM

#

Did you enable the yaml mode?

#

check the release post

stoic solstice Dec 15, 2018, 4:17 PM

#

No did not. Can't figure out how. and the /lovelace url gives 404

raven nacelle Dec 15, 2018, 4:18 PM

#

PLEASE check the release post, it has the instructions https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/yaml-mode/

stoic solstice Dec 15, 2018, 4:18 PM

#

Why isn't this info in the releawse notes?

raven nacelle Dec 15, 2018, 4:19 PM

#

well, if you had read the release notes carefully, you would not ask that question

#

https://www.home-assistant.io/blog/2018/12/12/release-84/

stoic solstice Dec 15, 2018, 4:20 PM

#

I searched for lovelace and can't find anything that informs about this. Perhaps if i open and read through every fix that's mentioned in the notes?

#

https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant/releases

raven nacelle Dec 15, 2018, 4:21 PM

#

that is not the release post.

#

every release has a blog post that you should read carefully for breaking changes

stoic solstice Dec 15, 2018, 4:21 PM

#

Well, then maybe this site: https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/installation/raspberry-pi/ should link there isntead?

#

It refers to this link as release notes

raven nacelle Dec 15, 2018, 4:22 PM

#

again, you are looking at the wrong place.

#

the install instructions don't change every release

stoic solstice Dec 15, 2018, 4:23 PM

#

Thre are upgrade instructions on that page

raven nacelle Dec 15, 2018, 4:23 PM

#

yes, the upgrade instructions also don't change with every release

stoic solstice Dec 15, 2018, 4:24 PM

#

True, but still it should link to a place where all the changes are correctly noted instead of the releases that apparently are wrong

#

oh well, thanks for the help. I guess i can get it working again now

#

ok, so enable yaml mode and still get a 404 not found when accessing /lovelace

#

@raven nacelle Any other ideas?

mortal cape Dec 15, 2018, 4:36 PM

#

Does /states work?

stoic solstice Dec 15, 2018, 4:37 PM

#

yes

mortal cape Dec 15, 2018, 4:37 PM

#

Go to info and choose Lovelace from there?

stoic solstice Dec 15, 2018, 4:38 PM

#

That interestingly works...

mortal cape Dec 15, 2018, 4:38 PM

#

And then make it the default again I guess

stoic solstice Dec 15, 2018, 4:38 PM

#

oh... you need to add the tab. Wasn't needed earlier

mortal cape Dec 15, 2018, 4:39 PM

#

By choosing yaml mode you miss the UI editing part, which is pretty nice but not finished

#

I don't know what tab you mean

stoic solstice Dec 15, 2018, 4:40 PM

#

Might try that later. If i understand it correct i should be able to import my config

#

oh, in the url /lovelace used to work. Now it needs to be /lovelace/0

mortal cape Dec 15, 2018, 4:40 PM

#

You can through the raw config editor, yes

#

@stoic solstice oh, yes, that /0 for the default view

stoic solstice Dec 15, 2018, 4:42 PM

#

yeah wasn't needed earlier on 0.81.4

#

I guess there was a redirect or something to /0

mortal cape Dec 15, 2018, 4:42 PM

#

Well, I don't even remember from that far back🙃

stoic solstice Dec 15, 2018, 4:43 PM

#

I've refused to upgrade as i heard many had issues but now i needed/wanted a new feature that wasn't in myu old version sp

glossy birch Dec 15, 2018, 5:28 PM

#

For those who are struggling like me to bring old groups as-is into the lovelace config by hand, here is the script you can use ```

id: all_groups
title: My Groups
icon: mdi:home
cards:
{%- for y in states.group %}{%- set g = y.entity_id %}
- type: entities
  title: {{g.split('.')[1].replace('_', ' ')|title}}
  show_header_toggle: false
  entities:
  {%- for x in states | selectattr('entity_id', 'in', state_attr(g,'entity_id')) |list %}
  - {{ x.entity_id }}
    {%- endfor -%}{% endfor %}

#

I have around 900+ entities, and impractical to use UI editor, and I've organized all my entities in my old UI into groups, and ☝ script basically converts those groups into lovelace, that I can move around within the views. BAM!

winter hollow Dec 15, 2018, 5:39 PM

#

The auto generated mode should do about the same

raven nacelle Dec 15, 2018, 5:42 PM

#

@glossy birch Yes, just use the default mode (I think it is called storage) that gives a decent starting point.

vapid field Dec 15, 2018, 5:47 PM

#

Hi, I'm Remco, new on the chat here.

#

Looking for some help with my new Lovelace config, I've searched the forum and docs, but can't find the right code

#

entity: light.ambilight
name: GREEN
icon: 'mdi:spotlight'
tap_action:
action: call-service
service: light.turn_on
service_data:
entity_id: light.ambilight
rgb_color: '0,255,0'
type: entity-button
This doesn't seem to work 😦

glossy birch Dec 15, 2018, 5:49 PM

#

@raven nacelle @winter hollow the problem is that I couldn't get the entity_ids that I want to organize - I am using my own yaml and UI editing was out of question

#

I am not using storage... yet 😉

raven nacelle Dec 15, 2018, 5:51 PM

#

if you are starting off, use storage. The UI editing is amazing and evolving rapidly.

#

either ways, it is easy to convert to storage at later date

blazing hamlet Dec 15, 2018, 5:52 PM

#

Hey,

#

i'm lost since I updated hass to 0.84, can I use my previous lovelace file ?

raven nacelle Dec 15, 2018, 5:53 PM

#

yes, just use the yaml-mode (read the release post for instructions)

blazing hamlet Dec 15, 2018, 5:54 PM

#

lovelace:
mode: yaml
?

glossy birch Dec 15, 2018, 5:55 PM

#

@raven nacelle UI editing is definitely not for me... I was tired of selecting entities in a dropbox that has 850 entities... I keep picking the same entities all over - again and again and then I gave up

#

@blazing hamlet add ```yaml
lovelace:
mode: yaml

raven nacelle Dec 15, 2018, 5:56 PM

#

we will probably get drag and drop cards soon

#

and other options to change the layout of our cards

#

those are the big ones that I am looking forward do

blazing hamlet Dec 15, 2018, 5:56 PM

#

@glossy birch I included it to lovelace.yaml 😅

glossy birch Dec 15, 2018, 5:56 PM

#

@blazing hamlet LOL

#

@blazing hamlet when I read the docs, it does not explicitly mention where to put the lovelace mode to yaml. I see that it can be confusing for newcomers.

#

not your fault

blazing hamlet Dec 15, 2018, 6:05 PM

#

my super guessing powers are limited

scenic lantern Dec 15, 2018, 6:08 PM

#

Is it possible to add a thermostat card to an entity_filter card?

vapid field Dec 15, 2018, 6:13 PM

#

Could it be posssible, that you can only pass 1 state to tap_action > service _data with an entity button? I'm trying to pass the entity_id and a rgb_color. But it only works when I remove the rgb_color.

mortal cape Dec 15, 2018, 6:20 PM

#

@glossy birch you can start typing in the dropdowns to quickly filter out all the other stuff

glossy birch Dec 15, 2018, 6:22 PM

#

@mortal cape the entityids are not typeable 😭

mortal cape Dec 15, 2018, 6:23 PM

#

I start typing "garage" and get only my entities with that word...?

glossy birch Dec 15, 2018, 6:23 PM

#

the entity_ids are pretty long with GUID in them - they are auto generated, and hard to use dropdown

mortal cape Dec 15, 2018, 6:23 PM

#

oh I see

glossy birch Dec 15, 2018, 6:23 PM

#

let me show you what they look like

vapid field Dec 15, 2018, 6:24 PM

#

Hey. New to home assistant, so forgive me if this is not the right place to ask. Upgraded to 0.84.2, and tried the lovelace ui editing. Seemed to work nicely, but now the "Configure ui" button doesn't work.

glossy birch Dec 15, 2018, 6:24 PM

#

they are like this media_player.snapcast_group_bde597975a001d05519d2ae52103dba1 - except I have 20 of them

mortal cape Dec 15, 2018, 6:24 PM

#

lol

glossy birch Dec 15, 2018, 6:24 PM

#

😃

restive flicker Dec 15, 2018, 6:47 PM

so... i've been fighting an entity-button for about 3 hours... hoping someone can take a look and tell me what i'm doing wrong... I just want to press a button and execute a script without any other interactions...

#

using the card configurator -

type: entity-button
name: Prepare for Guests
tap_action:
action: call-service
service: script.toggle
service_data:
entity_id: script.prepare_4_guests
entity: script.prepare_4_guests

when i click it i get a dialog box to execute the script... I just want it to execute without the additional dialog

@raven nacelle in my non-lovelace setup, when I click on my camera, it opens up a window with full screen view... does it still work with lovelace now?

raven nacelle Dec 15, 2018, 6:51 PM

#

yes../

#

use the picture-entity card

#

        type: picture-entity
        entity: camera.patio
        show_name: false
        show_state: false```

glossy birch Dec 15, 2018, 6:52 PM

#

I am using picture-glaance card, when I click on it, nothing happens

#

      - id: camera_playarea_camera
        type: picture-glance
        title: Playarea Camera
        entity: camera.playarea_camera
        camera_image: camera.playarea_camera
        show_info: true
        tap_action: dialog
        entities:
          - switch.wemobackyardlightswitch
          - binary_sensor.playarea_camera_motion

#

this is what I use

#

I had picture-entity earlier, and I switched to glance as I wanted to add binary sensors and lights at the bottom

restive flicker Dec 15, 2018, 6:54 PM

#

@raw brook - thanks, I hadn't seen that before, how to insert formatted text...

raven nacelle Dec 15, 2018, 6:54 PM

#

then you are probably looking at a combination of vertical and horizontal stack card

glossy birch Dec 15, 2018, 6:54 PM

#

hmm...

raven nacelle Dec 15, 2018, 6:54 PM

#

let me try the glance card for camera

glossy birch Dec 15, 2018, 6:54 PM

#

I like to be able to click on the zamera image and open up in full screen mode, where I can see more details

restive flicker Dec 15, 2018, 6:54 PM

#

it's not standard formatting in the card configuration tool, is it?

mild veldt Dec 15, 2018, 6:55 PM

#

@glossy birch that’s not how you define tap actions

#

Docs should be up to date on how it should be

glossy birch Dec 15, 2018, 6:56 PM

#

@mild veldt enlighten me please! I have no idea what I am doing there... time to hit the docs

#

I was trying to limit the amount of time I spend on LL, and get basic stuff going

mild veldt Dec 15, 2018, 6:56 PM

#

On mobile right with one hand trying to get my little one to nap 😃

glossy birch Dec 15, 2018, 6:57 PM

#

@mild veldt I appreciate it... I just need a pointer 😃

raven nacelle Dec 15, 2018, 6:57 PM

#

        type: glance
        title: camera
        show_header_toggle: false
        entities:
          - camera.porch
          - camera.patio``` works fine for me

glossy birch Dec 15, 2018, 6:57 PM

#

awesome! @raven nacelle

raven nacelle Dec 15, 2018, 6:57 PM

#

although glance is not the right card for cameras

glossy birch Dec 15, 2018, 6:57 PM

#

let me try that

mild veldt Dec 15, 2018, 6:57 PM

#

Default is more-info

#

So you shouldn’t have to define any actions to get it

blazing hamlet Dec 15, 2018, 7:20 PM

#

lol since the update I can't toggle entities by a click (lights or switchs)

mild veldt Dec 15, 2018, 7:22 PM

#

@blazing hamlet in which cards? Default tap_action is more-info

#

If you want toggle you'll need to define the tap_action

blazing hamlet Dec 15, 2018, 7:22 PM

#

1sec

mild veldt Dec 15, 2018, 7:22 PM

#

tap_action:
  action: toggle

blazing hamlet Dec 15, 2018, 7:22 PM

#

entity: light.cornerlight
name: Corner
tap_action: toggle

#

a simple example

mild veldt Dec 15, 2018, 7:22 PM

#

that won't work

#

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

blazing hamlet Dec 15, 2018, 7:23 PM

#

you mean since the latest update it's not going to work

#

ok

mild veldt Dec 15, 2018, 7:28 PM

#

correct

#

there were breaking changes

blazing hamlet Dec 15, 2018, 7:36 PM

#

fixed, thanks 😉

scenic lantern Dec 15, 2018, 7:36 PM

#

Dose anyone remember seeing a picture glance card created by a user that was kinda animated looking? I can't remember where I saw it

near crypt Dec 15, 2018, 7:55 PM

#

Is there any way to make entity buttons equal height? https://imgur.com/a/saY71qC

glossy birch Dec 15, 2018, 7:58 PM

#

@mild veldt thanks for pointing me about the tap action. I never updated my initial lovelace code that I generated from the initial version. It works fine now...

#

@raven nacelle this works as expected - ```yaml
- type: picture-glance
id: camera_playarea_camera
title: Playarea Camera
entity: camera.playarea_camera
camera_image: camera.playarea_camera
show_info: true
tap_action:

- switch.wemobackyardlightswitch
- binary_sensor.playarea_camera_motion

#

@scenic aspen Is that not where I am? the top of my screen says #frontend-archived.

glossy birch Dec 15, 2018, 9:12 PM

#

Is there any way you can reduce the card size of the lights? It looks pretty ugly being that size

📎 unknown.png

#

I have a lot lights, and I liked the old view! 😦

split granite Dec 15, 2018, 9:16 PM

#

Horizontal stack them?

mild veldt Dec 15, 2018, 9:16 PM

#

they don't scale that well currently

#

wip

glossy birch Dec 15, 2018, 9:16 PM

#

I tried, but the size is fixed

raven nacelle Dec 15, 2018, 9:29 PM

#

just use entities

#

I have them with sliders

📎 unknown.png

cinder rapids Dec 15, 2018, 9:30 PM

#

How do you add the sliders?

raven nacelle Dec 15, 2018, 9:30 PM

#

Thomas a custom_card https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-slider-entity-row

cinder rapids Dec 15, 2018, 9:31 PM

#

Cool, hopefully it’s officially added to HA soon.

raven nacelle Dec 15, 2018, 9:32 PM

#

I hope so too...we definitely need the slider - can be used for so many things

mild veldt Dec 15, 2018, 9:34 PM

#

We need to get things polished up before we start bringing in more new stuff and is the whole idea behind supporting custom cards. If the base doesn't have it, anyone can make it 😃 But in due time, I think something like slider will eventually make its way into the core

raven nacelle Dec 15, 2018, 9:35 PM

#

I am sure once LL becomes default and the kinks are ironed out we can add some of these things.

#

@mild veldt just on your previous comment on scaling https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant-polymer/issues/2334

#

😉

mild veldt Dec 15, 2018, 9:36 PM

#

yeah, just saw that as well

#

could have sworn there was already an issue for it, but can't find it now

raven nacelle Dec 15, 2018, 9:37 PM

#

may be it was in ui-schema repo

mild veldt Dec 15, 2018, 9:37 PM

#

checked there too 😉

#

🤷

raven nacelle Dec 15, 2018, 9:38 PM

#

I have one scaling issue there related to alarm control panels

#

but did not see anything else

mild veldt Dec 15, 2018, 9:38 PM

#

maybe it was gauge, which is pretty much the same thing as the light not scaling...

raven nacelle Dec 15, 2018, 9:38 PM

#

you can probably add a feature request label to that issue and leave it there

#

yeah, gauge may be https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant-polymer/issues/1765

#

but gauges still better than some of our other elements

mild veldt Dec 15, 2018, 9:40 PM

#

we're not keeping any feature requests in the polymer issues

Is there a way to add customer components when I use Lovelace as mode: storage ?

daring pier Dec 15, 2018, 9:59 PM

#

I upgraded from version 82.1 to the new 84.2, when I do and I click Overview it is saying No config found (Reload UI-Lovelace.yaml. I tried to do as instructed (You can do this by opening the Lovelace UI and click on Configure UI, this will prompt you to change to storage mode.) but I do not see that option anywhere.

mild veldt Dec 15, 2018, 10:11 PM

#

@vapid field use the raw editor that is in the menu when in edit mode

#

@daring pier do you have ids in your file?

#

also might want to clear your cache

vapid field Dec 15, 2018, 10:12 PM

#

@mild veldt Ok, so I add the custom component to www folder then add something to the raw editor?

mild veldt Dec 15, 2018, 10:12 PM

#

yeah, the instructions haven't changed on how you add custom components other than you need to use the raw editor to edit them currently

#

same file path, www

vapid field Dec 15, 2018, 10:19 PM

#

@mild veldt Thanks will give it a try!

visual ibex Dec 15, 2018, 10:22 PM

Is there any way to migrate ui-lovelace.yaml to the new format? it looks like it's making me start from scratch

vapid field Dec 15, 2018, 10:25 PM

#

@mild veldt maybe you have a snapshot how you entered it into the raw editor? I just added at the end:
resources:

url: /config/www/slider-entity-row.js
type: js

But it will not work:/ Get an error in the log

#

daring pier Dec 15, 2018, 10:28 PM

#

@mild veldt I am unsure what you mean by id's

mild veldt Dec 15, 2018, 10:28 PM

#

@visual ibex read the release notes for 0.84 on how to do that

#

@vapid field looks like you downloaded the html and not raw file

#

visual ibex Dec 15, 2018, 10:30 PM

#

@mild veldt I was looking in the wrong place - I was looking in the change log and couldn't find how to do it. Thanks for the tip.

mild veldt Dec 15, 2018, 10:30 PM

#

@daring pier in your ui-lovelace.yaml file are there id tags?

#

you might just need to try clearing your cache a few times as well

vapid field Dec 15, 2018, 10:31 PM

#

@mild veldt I use the the raw editor in the Lovalace, but I don´t think this is correct. It looks first to my https://hassio/whatever

mild veldt Dec 15, 2018, 10:31 PM

#

@vapid field the unexpected token < means you have an HTML file in your www folder

#

open that file and I guarantee it will be HTML and not javascript

daring pier Dec 15, 2018, 10:32 PM

#

@mild veldt I do not have any Id's and I will try to clear cache. TY

mild veldt Dec 15, 2018, 10:32 PM

#

@daring pier also, how did you get to your lovelace page? Through a bookmark or through the dev-info?

#

You'll want to go through dev-info initially

vapid field Dec 15, 2018, 10:33 PM

#

@mild veldt I downloaded the https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-slider-entity-row put the slider-entity-row.js into the www

mild veldt Dec 15, 2018, 10:33 PM

#

HOW you download that file matters though

#

right-click save, will save it as html

vapid field Dec 15, 2018, 10:33 PM

#

@mild veldt ok?

#

ok will try

mild veldt Dec 15, 2018, 10:34 PM

#

you don't want html, though

#

what I typically do, if I don't use wget or curl is to open the raw, and paste it into the file

vapid field Dec 15, 2018, 10:34 PM

#

i have the .js file

mild veldt Dec 15, 2018, 10:34 PM

#

I don't mean the extension, I mean the actual contents of the file

vapid field Dec 15, 2018, 10:35 PM

#

I think I miss something here, or I´m to stupid to understand what you mean haha

mild veldt Dec 15, 2018, 10:36 PM

#

@vapid field go here: https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-slider-entity-row/blob/master/slider-entity-row.js
Right click on Raw and then Save link as to get the raw contents, i.e. javascript

#

Here's a good list to read through when getting started with custom cards: https://github.com/ciotlosm/custom-lovelace#faq

vapid field Dec 15, 2018, 10:37 PM

#

then i put that to the www folder, right?

mild veldt Dec 15, 2018, 10:38 PM

#

yes

#

oh, and looking back up at your resources you posted that's not right either

vapid field Dec 15, 2018, 10:38 PM

#

great

mild veldt Dec 15, 2018, 10:38 PM

#

should be this

resources:
  - url: /local/slider-entity-row.js
    type: js

#

local matches to what you have in config/www

vapid field Dec 15, 2018, 10:40 PM

#

Oki, do i need to reboot the HA?

mild veldt Dec 15, 2018, 10:40 PM

#

no

vapid field Dec 15, 2018, 10:40 PM

#

did not get an error in the log now

mild veldt Dec 15, 2018, 10:40 PM

#

not if you had the www folder before all of this

vapid field Dec 15, 2018, 10:40 PM

#

yes I had it

daring pier Dec 15, 2018, 10:42 PM

#

@mild veldt Thank You. That did bring everything back however I lost all of my view tabs and now it looks like it did before I started with lovelace.

mild veldt Dec 15, 2018, 10:42 PM

#

that's the auto-generated dashboard

vapid field Dec 15, 2018, 10:42 PM

@mild veldt I get error when I try to add the "Unknown card type encountered: slider-entity-row."

mild veldt Dec 15, 2018, 10:42 PM

#

read through the release notes on how to start using yours

daring pier Dec 15, 2018, 10:43 PM

#

@mild veldt OK Thank you very much.

mild veldt Dec 15, 2018, 10:44 PM

#

@vapid field double check your path of the downloaded file. Double check your spelling. Double check the file contents

daring pier Dec 15, 2018, 10:45 PM

#

@mild veldt One more thing before I start reading all night 😃 It never did ask me to change storage will that be an issue?

mild veldt Dec 15, 2018, 10:45 PM

#

It won't ask you that until after you try to take control and configure it

#

Right now, you're using generated mode. i.e. Your dashboard is autogenerated based on the available entities

#

Nothing is stored

#

Once you take control, you'll be converted to storage mode UNLESS you configure yaml mode in your configuration file

vapid field Dec 15, 2018, 10:55 PM

#

@mild veldt don´t get it to work:/ Give up now but thanks for the help. Will give it a try tomorrow when I´m filled up with a night of sleeping:) Thanks again!

mild veldt Dec 15, 2018, 11:00 PM

#

Might want to check out arsaboo's config who pointed you to the card in the first place as well: https://github.com/arsaboo/homeassistant-config

#

@vapid field tagging you so you don't miss my message above

vapid field Dec 15, 2018, 11:35 PM

currently there is no feedback once I click "save" after a finished "raw config edit" session, right? or is it just me?

#

@brave badge you need to define the tap action per entity, so no, you couldn't do that with a monster card as you don't have entities to add more options to.

Do custom cards work with the new storage method of Lovelace?

flat timber Dec 16, 2018, 1:56 AM

#

@simple jolt they do but from what I've seen you needed to configure them in the raw editor

simple jolt Dec 16, 2018, 1:57 AM

#

@flat timber I did but non of the custom cards are displaying on the tracker card. Although they do work.

mild veldt Dec 16, 2018, 1:58 AM

#

Tracker card does not work with storage

#

You could keep a copy of your resources in your old ui-lovelace to allow it to work

simple jolt Dec 16, 2018, 2:00 AM

#

@mild veldt can I have the storage option enabled but also have a ui-lovelace.yaml file in config?

mild veldt Dec 16, 2018, 2:00 AM

#

Yes

#

It is ignored as long you don't do yaml mode

simple jolt Dec 16, 2018, 2:02 AM

#

@mild veldt that worked. Thanks.

mild veldt Dec 16, 2018, 2:03 AM

#

Note that after updating a card resource your frontend won't reflect the change until you clear the cache or you manually copy the ui-lovelace resources and put them in via the raw editor

prime umbra Dec 16, 2018, 2:10 AM

#

@raw brook from what i see from sensor card was removed config like line_color has example
is there any particular reason why removed?
doesn't seem to make sense to remove a important option like that but at same time I'm sure that there's got to have a reason for it

raw brook Dec 16, 2018, 2:11 AM

#

There is no reason to have and it too much control. Line color can be changed with them which is really all that's needed

prime umbra Dec 16, 2018, 2:13 AM

#

what you mean by Line color can be changed with them

#

by removing those options you forced to have all sensors with same color, witch will remove the freedom of personalise your own tastes
why have has example temperature and humidity sensor all with same color line graph, when you can have different color to distinguish one from other

raw brook Dec 16, 2018, 3:23 AM

#

you can change it with theme

#

Change the accent color

Good day, I´m trying out Lovelace and I have issues with adding scene actiations. I´ve copy pasted the example from the docs but modified to use scene instead. But hass complains about the middle row

paper oxide Dec 16, 2018, 11:00 AM

#

Seems different than the docs

hushed palm Dec 16, 2018, 11:01 AM

#

Sorry

#

Copy pasted wrong

brave badge Dec 16, 2018, 11:02 AM

#

@paper oxide docs changed: https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/glance/#configuration-variables

hushed palm Dec 16, 2018, 11:02 AM

#

Like that

#

This does not work:

      - type: entity-button
        icon: mdi:sleep
        name: God natt
        tap_action:
          action: call-service
            service: scene.turn_on
            service_data: 
              entity_id: scene.god_natt
        entity: scene.god_natt

#

Hass says syntax error

#

Seems to be intendation error (mapping values are not allowed here in...)

#

Ok so example in docs is incorrect. Should be like this

      - type: entity-button
        icon: mdi:sleep
        name: God natt
        tap_action:
          action: call-service

Whats the best way to do it? via .yalm?

#

add
lovelace:

#

Is there a picture-glance card showing the actual temperature value of that room instead of requiring an extra click?

midnight shadow Dec 16, 2018, 11:44 AM

#

i'd look into something like https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/sensor/ + https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-card-modder instead of picture-glance

#

i haven't tried that myself though

mild veldt Dec 16, 2018, 2:29 PM

#

@hushed palm use picture-elements for something like that

#

Does anyone have any recommendations for wall mounted tablets running Lovelace in fully kiosk or something similar?

hallow spruce Dec 16, 2018, 3:58 PM

#

I noticed in 0.84.2, that I have an entity card with three sensors on it, but it still displays the group_toggle at the top:

          - title: Current Conditions
            type: entities
            entities:
              - entity: sensor.dark_sky_summary
              - entity: sensor.dark_sky_temperature
              - entity: sensor.dark_sky_humidity

Is that expected behavior or a bug I should open an issue on?

#

I should add that I know I can turn it off with show_header_toggle: false, but prior to this I thought it only displayed that if there were switch-type entities on the card

remote crescent Dec 16, 2018, 4:27 PM

#

So, updated hass.io to 0.84.2. Copied my lovelace yaml into the raw config editor and my ui was back to normal. The problem is that when opening the raw config editor it is completely blank. Anyone else seen this? Anyone know what to do?

upbeat eagle Dec 16, 2018, 4:40 PM

#

I have the same thing as @hallow spruce

#

I had to put show_header_toggle: false on all my cards

Hi everyone, sorry to drop in with a question have been looking for this the last couple of days, I migrated to HA 0.84 and am redoing my lovelace setup (in yaml mode). I am using includes for my various views but each time I make a change in one of the files I need to restart HA. Is there a way to force lovelace to reload including all included files?

civic sedge Dec 16, 2018, 8:13 PM

#

ah deam.. as I feel the tap_action: in entetys is removed...

Just spent to much time with configuring that i dont get it how I now call a service directly

@copper mural I have solved this via an iframe card & a local lighthttp server to serve the html and what else might be needed...

@ornate monolith can confirm that, looks like the lovelace.yaml does not allow include for auto-reloading

I can think of one way to find out

lol.. I suppose so

drowsy summit Dec 17, 2018, 12:12 AM

I guess I maybe asked for the wrong thing.. what I need is a custom ACTION. I have this element in a picture-element card - type: state-icon tap_action: action: toggle entity: switch.tv_sanyo_power style: top: 41% left: 25% transform: scale(1.5) I would like to have a hold_action that pops up a custom card

#

If lovelace-popup-card can do that, I can't figure out how lol

mild veldt Dec 17, 2018, 12:53 AM

#

did you try adding a hold_action of more-info?

tame dove Dec 17, 2018, 1:24 AM

#

I am using a custom card called flex-table-card. It works well on a pc. I can see the values change. On an Apple device, all I see is NaN. Just wondering if someone might have seen this in other instances or it is a common Lovelace error?

mild veldt Dec 17, 2018, 2:06 AM

#

not common

#

Really? Looking at the code I thought it would work. I might play with it later

drowsy summit Dec 17, 2018, 3:31 AM

#

the picture element is a floorplan of my house and setup as a panel. I had to add the custom card after the picture element card or nothing showed on the page. I don't imagine this would be the cause, but perhaps it is.

hey all, I was attempting to troubleshoot my ecobee and while in the "raw config editor", I accidentally commented out the top view comment and saved.

#

I'm not unable to load any lovelace UI to undo this adjustment.

#

anyone have any idea where I can modify this since the ui-lovelace.yaml doesn't actually get used now (0.84.2)?

mild veldt Dec 17, 2018, 4:54 AM

@short void you'll need to edit the file .storage/lovelace which is your config, but stored in json format and then reboot HA

#

Thank you, I'll look into this tomorrow morning

#

Hmm, just glancing at it on my phone and I don't see the view portion listed. I assume this is because when I commented it out, it completely removed it. Ugh.

I saw there was a braking change on that but can’t see where i went wrong

#

Ok nevermind found it

balmy crescent Dec 17, 2018, 7:37 AM

#

Is anyone else having problems with lovelace? I just cant activate and I get the regular UI instead

#

I was using lovelace no problem until now

blazing nacelle Dec 17, 2018, 8:10 AM

#

Hi all

#

I am trying toi add a historycal graph_card in HA

#

  title: 'My Graph'
  entities:
    - sensor.outside_temperature
    - entity: media_player.lounge_room
      name: Main player```

#

Can i simply put this card in confifguraion.yaml?

winter hollow Dec 17, 2018, 8:13 AM

#

No, are you using lovelace in storage mode?

blazing nacelle Dec 17, 2018, 8:14 AM

#

I activated lovelace in the gui

#

developent page?

#

''i'' and then enable lovelace

#

http://xxxxxx:8123/lovelace/default_view

winter hollow Dec 17, 2018, 8:17 AM

#

Right top, click Configure UI

blazing nacelle Dec 17, 2018, 8:18 AM

#

oke

#

Holy crap

#

this is awsome

#

thanks

#

I can simpy add an card

#

and choose historical_card?

strong cairn Dec 17, 2018, 8:22 AM

#

so custom_updater only works in yaml mode - is it standard for custom cards ? (new to lovelace - decided to check it out with 0.84)

blazing nacelle Dec 17, 2018, 8:23 AM

#

I think its standard

#

type: history-graph
title: 'My Graph'
entities:
- sensor.outside_temperature
- entity: media_player.lounge_room
  name: Main player

#

I can choose history-graph

#

Like this - type: history-graph title: 'Warmtepomp grafiek' entities: - sensor.warmte_pomp_sensor_aangepast name: Test

#

With error: YAML Error: TypeError: Cannot read property 'startsWith' of undefined

#

Or do i have to use json format?

winter hollow Dec 17, 2018, 8:31 AM

#

No yaml remove the first - and adjust your indents

blazing nacelle Dec 17, 2018, 8:33 AM

#

Thanks

polar kelp Dec 17, 2018, 9:54 AM

#

@drowsy summit popup-card does what you want. The problem is that you're using panel mode, and then only the first card is loaded. You can solve this by using a stack containing your floor plan and the popup card.

radiant drum Dec 17, 2018, 10:01 AM

#

Hi! After i copyed my lovelace code into the "Raw config editor" all my resources got changed like this https://pastebin.com/3QpR9FNR. Is this correct?

polar kelp Dec 17, 2018, 10:46 AM

#

Yes. The hass parser orders the keys alphabetically.

hot gyro Dec 17, 2018, 11:09 AM

#

hopefully a quick one - are there any deficiencies moving to storage mode vs yaml? also not sure if I understand the instructions correctly - do I start with my ui.yaml and then convert or do I need to remove it prior to starting hass?

foggy tendon Dec 17, 2018, 11:11 AM

#

I have this view and want to style as in the code, but it seems the picture-element card doesn't like the card-modder. Or am i wrong in something?
https://pastebin.com/RCsNFxBr

polar kelp Dec 17, 2018, 11:14 AM

#

@hot gyro There are three modes, auto, manual and yaml. ui-lovelace.yaml is only used in yaml mode. It can still be present in the other two, but will be ignored.

#

If you wish to use the UI editor with your old config. You start up without doing anything special - because the default is auto mode. Then you open up the raw config editor and paste the contents of your ui-lovelace.yaml. This will activate manual mode.

radiant drum Dec 17, 2018, 11:19 AM

#

What causes this? https://blahblahblah:8123/lovelace/11:0:0 Uncaught

hot gyro Dec 17, 2018, 11:19 AM

#

ok thanks - so it did start in auto and now I need to chase down why it has entities not available that shouldnt be there ... will have a look

strong cairn Dec 17, 2018, 11:23 AM

#

you cant use third party cards in auto ? only in yaml mode ?

winter hollow Dec 17, 2018, 11:24 AM

#

In auto no, in manual yes you can. So not only in YAML

#

You can add them in the raw config editor

jade gust Dec 17, 2018, 11:40 AM

#

I'm really sorry to ask this, but lots of googling appears to be giving me out of date info. Whats the fix for having 2 cards side by side, not taking up full width of the browser?
I have put a horizontal stack in a vertical stack, but the vertical stack is only about 10% the width of the browser window.

polar kelp Dec 17, 2018, 11:48 AM

#

panel: true https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/views/

jade gust Dec 17, 2018, 12:13 PM

#

If you edit a view with the ui editor now, there is no panel option?

mild veldt Dec 17, 2018, 12:36 PM

#

@jade gust the ui editors are still evolving. You can always toggle the yaml view editor to add options

brisk osprey Dec 17, 2018, 12:41 PM

#

Hi guys, I need some help. Im trying to get into the lovelace game, but I cant figure out which file to edit. Im on 0.84.1 and using lovelace as default. But the ui-lovelace.yaml seem obsolete now and I dont have any lovelace in .storage.

next sigil Dec 17, 2018, 12:44 PM

#

@polar kelp Looks like your Layout card is not editable with the config UI

winter hollow Dec 17, 2018, 12:46 PM

#

@brisk osprey click on configure UI in the top right menu

minor viper Dec 17, 2018, 12:48 PM

#

Considering so many people have the question about the new lovelace ui, and how it uses it setup, maybe there's time to do a better explanation on the release note? : )

hot gyro Dec 17, 2018, 12:49 PM

#

^^^ this

minor viper Dec 17, 2018, 12:49 PM

#

Just add a huge stopsign.jpg with the title WHEN YOU UPDATE TO 0.84.1+ YOUR LOVELACE UI WILL USE THE NEW CONFIG FILES READ INFO HERE

hot gyro Dec 17, 2018, 12:49 PM

#

as an example there is menu unused entities - its full of entities being used and shown on my views ... doesnt make any sense to me - I would expect to only see entities in there that are currently not shown

minor viper Dec 17, 2018, 12:50 PM

#

sure it's entities that are unused then? cause mine works as it should

brisk osprey Dec 17, 2018, 12:50 PM

#

thanks @winter hollow

@minor viper a PR to the docs is always welcome

polar kelp Dec 17, 2018, 12:51 PM

#

@next sigil That's probably true. I haven't tried it yet.

minor viper Dec 17, 2018, 12:51 PM

#

@winter hollow i was not blessed by the gods with PR skills

#

all i can say 😛

winter hollow Dec 17, 2018, 12:52 PM

#

Editing the docs doesn't require any skills 😉

minor viper Dec 17, 2018, 12:52 PM

#

But nah, something that's obvious for you guys working with it behind the scenes without us knowing it, isnt that obvious when something new releases

#

did i say i hate typing? if not.. i hate typing 😄

next sigil Dec 17, 2018, 12:52 PM

#

@polar kelp The card works just as intended, but shows no edit-buton.
can still edit it just fine thru the raw config editor thou

minor viper Dec 17, 2018, 12:52 PM

#

and i hate people on daily basis

polar kelp Dec 17, 2018, 12:53 PM

#

Makes sense. There's nowhere to put an edit button...

#

I plan to take a look at GUI editing after the holidays.

#

And I suppose cards that are inside the layout-card aren't editable either, just like core stacks.

minor viper Dec 17, 2018, 12:54 PM

#

which card you referring to?

polar kelp Dec 17, 2018, 12:56 PM

#

This one: https://community.home-assistant.io/t/my-lovelace-plugins/70726/240

#

ah stacking cards into cards? : )

#

nvm.. read more about it!

strong cairn Dec 17, 2018, 1:19 PM

#

@minor viper that are nice standard excuses for lazy ppl not wanting to do the PR 😉

minor viper Dec 17, 2018, 1:19 PM

#

who said i wasnt lazy?

foggy tendon Dec 17, 2018, 1:20 PM

#

Is the picture-elements card moddable by card-modder custom card?

strong cairn Dec 17, 2018, 1:20 PM

#

i didnt, i juz stated the fact 😉

minor viper Dec 17, 2018, 1:20 PM

#

Or it could be just that i suck at doing PR? Hence why i have a co-worker who adjusts the most writing i do before handing it over to a customer

strong cairn Dec 17, 2018, 1:21 PM

#

thats exactly how PRs work - you do it, someone reviews it and everybody is happy 😃

blazing nacelle Dec 17, 2018, 1:22 PM

Hi again 😉

wheat current Dec 17, 2018, 1:22 PM

#

The best person to write docs are the person having issues, the people behind the feature will most likely be in another mindset

blazing nacelle Dec 17, 2018, 1:23 PM

#

Is there a way to change the text size in lovelace with a gauge card?

minor viper Dec 17, 2018, 1:23 PM

#

It's just that one thing i've learned when working with IT, you have to treat your customer as a baby.. even if something is simple for you to comprehend, think that the customer has 0 knowledge about anything. And write after that aswell, or throw in some pictures so they can comprehend what you're trying to explain

#

@wheat current understandable : )

blazing nacelle Dec 17, 2018, 1:24 PM

#

Because the my next is now bigger then the gauge itself

polar kelp Dec 17, 2018, 1:27 PM

#

@foggy tendon Yes. But not the elements in the card.

#

I actually almost added modding elements as a feature, but then I realized that's a built in feature of elements anyways, so I took that out.

#

With the new templating, though, I should probably add it back...

foggy tendon Dec 17, 2018, 1:37 PM

#

@polar kelp thanks, so i can use card-modder only for the first card?

#

https://pastebin.com/RCsNFxBr

#

I'd like to dim an image inside a card-modder card like this:

            style:
              background: url(/local/lovelace/images/info.jpeg)

Is it possible and how?

icy shard Dec 17, 2018, 2:19 PM

im getting this error but i dont understand what it means https://********.gq/frontend_latest/bf7146608f595468a214.chunk.js:3157:1377 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'name' of undefined

mild veldt Dec 17, 2018, 2:20 PM

#

@icy shard is related to weather and/or plant cards. Should be fixed in next beta

icy shard Dec 17, 2018, 2:20 PM

#

okay

brisk osprey Dec 17, 2018, 2:23 PM

#

just wanna make sure I got this right. Either you edit lovelace via the gui, or the lovelace file in .storage right? No way in doing it in yaml like before?

minor viper Dec 17, 2018, 2:30 PM

#

also, is there any need to have the lovelace.yaml located in the Hassio folder? if you're running through the .storage instead? 😃

winter hollow Dec 17, 2018, 2:33 PM

#

@brisk osprey you should not touch the files in .storage that is only for HA to touch

#

If you use storage mode you can only edit your UI through the UI. The UI also has a raw editor to edit you config as YAML

#

@minor viper no, it doesn't use the yaml file when using storage

minor viper Dec 17, 2018, 2:39 PM

#

alright thank you, then i'll remove it when i get home 😃

brisk osprey Dec 17, 2018, 2:49 PM

got it.....(silently closing the file and moving away from the computer...)
Thanks again @winter hollow

Does "Covers" not work together with picture-glance? I've added one and can't control the cover, but if I add a light I can control it (toggle).
Do I need to add something else? (right now I've only added '- cover.garage' under entities

solid wigeon Dec 17, 2018, 6:13 PM

#

hello, updating .83-> .84 caused quite a few issues in my setup, most I|ve figured out now (mqtt/owntracks, and appleTV no longer working) however....the lovelace UI for me now seems to be partially missing....

#

Some views are missing and it seems to be a mix of the old "groups" and my new lovelace-ui ....is that possible?

winter hollow Dec 17, 2018, 6:19 PM

#

Yes

#

Read the release notes

#

Or actually, no it is not a mix, it is just your groups with the Lovelace elements 😉

solid wigeon Dec 17, 2018, 6:20 PM

#

yeah, i know... 😃

#

i have already checked the "breaking changes" and can't figure out what remains the problem

winter hollow Dec 17, 2018, 6:23 PM

#

You are in generated/auto mode

#

Either click the configure UI button, and copy your old yaml in the raw config

#

Or go to yaml mode

#

For the last see the docs and link in the release notes

mild veldt Dec 17, 2018, 6:24 PM

#

@wind tusk read the docs on how to define your tap_actions

solid wigeon Dec 17, 2018, 6:24 PM

tap_actions are fixed

mild veldt Dec 17, 2018, 6:25 PM

mild veldt Dec 17, 2018, 6:25 PM

wat? no

wind tusk Dec 17, 2018, 6:26 PM

#

@mild veldt tried the different versions, with different actions (cover.close_cover etc) but couldn't get it to work...
Or maybe it's me who's missunderstanding tapping?

#

tapping the actual cover icon brings up the history graph for my cover, taping the image brings up the camera

mild veldt Dec 17, 2018, 6:27 PM

#

so you don't have a tap_action defined and it is using the default more-info

wind tusk Dec 17, 2018, 6:28 PM

solid wigeon Dec 17, 2018, 6:32 PM

So adding this https://www.hastebin.com/raw/madagaralu to configuration.yaml will run Lovelace off the lovelace-ui.yaml like before?

mild veldt Dec 17, 2018, 6:33 PM

yes

solid wigeon Dec 17, 2018, 6:33 PM

allright, easy as that 😉

mild veldt Dec 17, 2018, 6:33 PM

you will not be able to use any GUI editor features

solid wigeon Dec 17, 2018, 6:34 PM

#

ah, ok, thought so, I just discovered those too, haha

#

so....is there any way of "importing" my config and be able to continue editing in UI?

winter hollow Dec 17, 2018, 6:46 PM

#

Yes, copy your config into the raw config editor

solid wigeon Dec 17, 2018, 6:49 PM

#

From just briefly looking at the UI editor it looks like I will need some time to learn that (too), hopefully these kind of changes will not be that frequent

split granite Dec 17, 2018, 6:50 PM

Well, it's a big switch from one UI (states) to a new one (Lovelace) - the devs don't plan on doing this regularly 😉

solid wigeon Dec 17, 2018, 6:53 PM

#

Good thing 😃 from a beginners perspective, starting this summer with HomeAssistant and "coding" in yamls it for sure is not a platform I'd recommend for someone who wants to j"ust have a automation system that works"
Don't misunderstand me, I enjoy the playing around, but I would not trust this system with my life

You should not trust any system with your life, systems have bugs.

It always bothered me that all ”smart” locks are open-on-fail. I know it’s for safety and evacuation and stuff, but I don’t want my door to open because I forgot to change batteries. And my main breaker is outdoors.

wind tusk Dec 17, 2018, 6:59 PM

#

@mild veldt tried these 2 ways, but still going to "more-info" https://hastebin.com/dabacizazu.css

Do you see whats wrong?

mild veldt Dec 17, 2018, 7:00 PM

#

@wind tusk your service data is not formatted properly

polar kelp Dec 17, 2018, 7:00 PM

#

They shouldn’t work, but neither should they open more-info. Weird...

mild veldt Dec 17, 2018, 7:01 PM

#

@wind tusk you don't want it to just toggle the cover? only open?

polar kelp Dec 17, 2018, 7:02 PM

#

Or is there some kind of fallover if service_data isn’t an object nowadays?

wind tusk Dec 17, 2018, 7:02 PM

#

If it could toggle it, that would be fine, but dont see any toggle options for covers in HA?

mild veldt Dec 17, 2018, 7:03 PM

#

@polar kelp we just pass the service_data as is

foggy tendon Dec 17, 2018, 7:03 PM

#

With the 0.84.3 the !include works with lovelace? Docs?

mild veldt Dec 17, 2018, 7:03 PM

#

@foggy tendon if you're in yaml_mode, yes

polar kelp Dec 17, 2018, 7:03 PM

#

Thought so. Then it should just fail with a log error and not open the more-info dialog.

mild veldt Dec 17, 2018, 7:04 PM

#

I don't know if it is now, he said it was previously, but that was when he didn't have any tap actions defined

foggy tendon Dec 17, 2018, 7:04 PM

#

@mild veldt where to read documentation?

wind tusk Dec 17, 2018, 7:04 PM

#

It is still opening the more-info box

mild veldt Dec 17, 2018, 7:04 PM

#

hmmm

wind tusk Dec 17, 2018, 7:04 PM

#

so whats the correct format of the service_data?

#

is it in json?

mild veldt Dec 17, 2018, 7:05 PM

#

@foggy tendon https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace

#

  - type: picture-glance
    title: Garage
    entities:
      - entity: cover.garageport
        icon: mdi:arrow-up-bold
        tap_action:
          action: call-service
          service: open_cover
          service_data:
            entity_id: cover.garageport
    camera_image: camera.garage

should work, I believe

I'm not sure why more-info is showing still though...so

It should probably be service: cover.open_cover

wind tusk Dec 17, 2018, 7:15 PM

#

I removed the lovelace-ui and generated it again, still the same, with the code that Iantrich pasted

#

and no errors in ha.log

I'll give it another go tomorrow with fresh eyes..

polar kelp Dec 17, 2018, 7:19 PM

#

@solid wigeon cards don’t need ids anymore. Try just removing that line.

#

...if it’s a card id. If it’s a view id there’s some other problem...

foggy tendon Dec 17, 2018, 7:20 PM

#

@mild veldt hmmm.... there is nothing related to !include in the lovelace docs page...

#

thanks for the help @tardy shore and @polar kelp ! I'll let you know if I figure it out 😃

mild veldt Dec 17, 2018, 7:22 PM

#

@foggy tendon docs on include are out of the scope of lovelace specific docs. You just follow the standard HA configuration docs on include if that's what you're looking for

#

https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/configuration/splitting_configuration/

foggy tendon Dec 17, 2018, 7:23 PM

#

@mild veldt ok, i'll try to do my best as i already use !include in configuration.yaml. Is it almost the same way?

polar kelp Dec 17, 2018, 7:24 PM

#

It’s exactly the same way.

it should be same. what issues are you running into? I believe you have to currently restart HA to have changes reflected on the frontend if they are inside an !include

polar kelp Dec 17, 2018, 8:28 PM

#

Was probably lost in the barrage of other breaking changes. Glad it at least made it to the docs, honestly...

vapid lance Dec 17, 2018, 8:34 PM

#

clear. just by curiosity, IMHO 0.84 broke a lot of things, even more than during the last hackathon. Any reason ? The rush to replace the default view ?

polar kelp Dec 17, 2018, 8:35 PM

#

Yes and no.

#

The plan was to release lovelace as default with 0.84, which Balloob had declared could not happen without a working GUI editor. This brought a lot of problems with backwards compatibility and workarounds to still allow manual editing and such...
Then Frenck had an idea that changed everything - put the automatically or UI generated stuff in .storage. In one stroke, that solved lots and lots of problems. But the work to make that possible took some time, so the release couldn't be finished before the beta was published. That's why thinks may seem kind of half-finished in 0.84.

#

That's half of the reason. The other one is basically that there were a lot of things that were inconsistent or not just right that we have wanted to change for a while, and they were all bunched together into one break-everything release rather than several breaking ones.

split granite Dec 17, 2018, 8:41 PM

#

TL/DR: Somebody solved a bunch of problems, and created some new ones as a result 😛

polar kelp Dec 17, 2018, 8:42 PM

And: Would you rather have to fix your config once, or several times over the next few months?

Card-tools is a collection of neat functions that I use in many cards. Previously I’ve just copied them every time, but by puting them in their own plugin I can give them more focus and keep the quality higher in regards to descriptive errors and such.

@polar kelp I need to carve out some time and play around with those card tools. That's so cool that you made those.

#

I have a few custom cards that could use some TLC and that would be a great addition

polar kelp Dec 17, 2018, 11:25 PM

#

It'd be awsome if they could be of use to someone else than me!

mild veldt Dec 17, 2018, 11:26 PM

#

I would love to see something like that be a base that HA provides to custom card creators to build off of

#

All of it lowers the bar of entry for others, which is a huge plus

polar kelp Dec 17, 2018, 11:28 PM

#

I actually suggested that at some point. I think having access to things like createCardElement would minimize the step from custom card to core card.

mild veldt Dec 17, 2018, 11:32 PM

#

Yeah, that would be great. There are more and more amazing custom cards out there. Many of them will never make it into core, but making them easier to create is amazing and hopefully we can come with a way to more easily install/maintain them as well

Is it possible to hide the header toggle on the entity-filter cards? They don't seem to have an show_header_toggle option

mild veldt Dec 18, 2018, 4:21 AM

#

The entity-filter card isn't really a card, it's just a filter around the card that you define. You likely just didn't define that card as the default is an entities card. Go ahead and do so and then you can set show_header_toggle

- type: entity-filter
  entities:
    - device_tracker.demo_paulus
    - device_tracker.demo_anne_therese
    - device_tracker.demo_home_boy
  state_filter:

worthy kiln Dec 18, 2018, 3:31 PM

First I want to say thank you, for the cool new lovelace integrated into the default frontend, including an editor to configure it. Thats the right way! Today I nearly always use the feature panel: true with my surrounding card to get the cards to the optimal size. In that area the editor cant handle it, the edit link is even now shown here. Probably the reason is also the nesting of cards. I would suggest to let us directly scale each card by using either % values, fixed values in the raw mode or by using mouse actions or whatever. As soon you have this editor ready. You are a big step towards an end user usable product! Next step would be to get rid of this configuration.yaml thing. It is horrable. We need a single file per topic not that one big thing with includes, where everbody can do things in a different way. Also all configurable by the UI.

@naive tulip No problem - bookmark the following page. It should help out in the future.
https://home-assistant-lovelace-gallery.netlify.com/#

#

Just started using the UI editor for Lovelace today and short of stating good job, I wanted to point out a few things I noticed from a UX perspective.
Obvious Omissions:

Tab Order - There needs to be a simple way to reorder tabs. At present the only way I can see to do this is to delete all of the tabs and start building them again from scratch.
Tab View Variabls - There seem to be some omissions in the Tab Creation window, like Panel and Background
Moving Cards Between Tabs - There should be a way to move and or copy Cards from one tab to another. I am aware that I can open a card, copy the code, create a new card in another tab and paste the code. This feels sloppy from a UX perspective though. Reminds me of that old trope of designers vs developers.

Hi all, i was wondering if there was a way to make a view in lovelace that i would be able to load without the h.a. header. The point to this is to have my old tablet as a control panel. It would be mounted on a wall, always on with the custom view showing in a browser.

hybrid bobcat Dec 18, 2018, 8:59 PM

#

Ok. I have used the lovelace add-on before just to test lovelace but if I don't want to use that one does the new method create a new lovelace setup from the default gui? Or how does this work. I have tried to find a an explanation but can't find any that I can see explains this. Also if I have a lovelace file, do I need to delete it before setting the system up now for the new method? And is it only from the (i) that i do the switsh to lovelace? When/were should I get the question aboute what type I want to use?

#

Also, do I need to reboot after clicking "use lovelace as default"?

@mild veldt that's the thing. I don't want to use my existing yaml file made with the add-on. I want to start from scratch. What then?

mild veldt Dec 18, 2018, 9:28 PM

#

Just upgrade. You have to explicitly state yaml mode to use you ui-lovelace

hybrid bobcat Dec 18, 2018, 9:36 PM

I'm already on the latest version. When clicking the "test lovelace" in the info part of Hass I only get a blank screen saying "
Error while loading this panel. Go back" the logs don't give me anything stating what goes wrong.

Hi, is there a way to hide the top line (blue menu) for a view that should only be shown in fullscreen?

slender pond Dec 18, 2018, 10:12 PM

#

I just have a suggestion for when the time comes that you shutdown the old HA UI and just go to lovelace. Because a lot of us are making custom UI's that are for tablets and use images etc could you put two directory's in for a tablet and a mobile version, so when you initially logon to HA you get asked which one you want to use then you use that lovelace configuration. It would mean that you could make a custom UI for tablets with a bigger screen size and use the normal lovelace UI for smaller devices such as phones. Just an idea?

frank tapir Dec 18, 2018, 10:16 PM

#

Quick question, not sure what I'm missing, on the picture-elements, for an element of state-icon, can I not control the icon image and size?

split granite Dec 18, 2018, 10:18 PM

#

@slender pond You could raise a feature request in the Feature Request of the forum

#

I believe though that there's already some plans for that, but it won't be until after states (the current UI) stops being the default (and possibly not before it's gone)

@split granite was the comment about the plans to my comment?

#

No

#

The answer to your question is in the docs

#

If there's no option listed, it's not possible (at least currently)

#

Icon images can usually be changed with customize though

viral root Dec 18, 2018, 10:27 PM

#

should i take over control of lovelace? 😄 whats the point there? 😃

#

what does it?

frank tapir Dec 18, 2018, 10:28 PM

#

The doc is a bit confusing to be honest, it mentions Icon Element, but its not clear how its a applied.

viral root Dec 18, 2018, 10:28 PM

#

question about taking over control is also not that informative 😃

#

lets digging...

frank tapir Dec 18, 2018, 10:29 PM

#

Actually I see now there are two different types, state-icon and just icon. state-icon doesn't let you change the icon directly where icon does.

I would gladly stop editing yaml files manually but I tried to use the on-screen editor and I can't seem to understand how to build a card. I tried to build this exact card there and it keeps saying it is invalid 😦 I wonder where I can learn how to do it.

slender pond Dec 18, 2018, 11:04 PM

have you tried letting the automatic thing do it's work then editing the yaml?

thorn ridge Dec 18, 2018, 11:05 PM

#

well... my yaml files were already very much to my liking and the automatic thing doesn't add much value to it. I guess I'll keep editing yaml files until the ui editor is more evolved.

they don't seem to be causing any problem although in one tread on the forum someone reports they are crashing his lovelace

does picture-entity support navigate now?

So, action: navigate is in the docs. So it should support it "now". But with a quick glance the change seems to be recent, so I assume it is not in 0.83

@hybrid bobcat so you're on 0.84.x, have never used lovelace before and when you click on "Try lovelace" from info is does not load? Any errors in you browser console or HA logs?

hybrid bobcat Dec 19, 2018, 12:43 PM

#

I used the add-on to create lovelace file and tested it by using :8123/lovelace to test it out before 0.84.x but never set it as default.

#

@mild veldt

mild veldt Dec 19, 2018, 12:44 PM

#

what version are you on now?

#

@hybrid bobcat easiest way to try Lovelace is to just upgrade 0.84. No need for add ons. Likely that the add-on didn't have everything you needed to run LL in a previous version where IDs were required

hybrid bobcat Dec 19, 2018, 12:56 PM

#

@mild veldt I'm on latest. 0.84.3. so what to do from here? Delete the add-on and the ui-lovelace.yaml and reboot? Would that be enough to get the mode option question? Because I don't know when or where to expect that question.

mild veldt Dec 19, 2018, 1:45 PM

#

@hybrid bobcat you shouldn't need to delete that file if not in YAML mode but it wouldn't hurt either. So, yes, delete Lovelace YAML file, make sure you don't have anything about Lovelace in your configuration YAML file and reboot. Should get an auto generated dashboard when you try Lovelace then

Hi, I installed a new raspberry with hassio. I'm trying to setup lovelace with the UI and when I click on configureUI/ take control I get this error: "Saving failed: Not supported"

#

Any ideas?

Never mind... solved.

Hello!
i hope you can give me some advice i am using Lovelace and have Hass.io .82.1
i hesitate to upgrade to .84.3 because i donnot know which format of lovelace i should use in the future.
should i stick to yaml mode or is it going to be removed in the near future?
should i change to storage mode? is this the way for the future? do i loose any features or customizations?
is there a comparison or a simple advice in this case?
thx

@gloomy raven yaml mode is not going to be removed

#

going to storage mode you lose the ability to use !include and !secret and cannot edit the file in an IDE as it is system managed but does provide you a UI interface that will be more intuitive

#

storage is the future and where development/features will be more noticeable

#

ok so i can edit the file in the ui inteface to change the code? i donnot loose any functionaliity?

#

i do not need a IDE if i can change all code especially for custom cards in the "new" ui like in the "configurator"

#

no need for !secret also because i use Hass.io it locally.

#

there is a raw editor that allows you to work on custom cards for now, but doesn't provide any syntax highlighting or validation until you try to save. we hope to make it more robust in time. we also hope to better support custom cards so that they can have UI editors as well

thx, i think i give it a try ;)
too long after i messed up my installation the last time,

Is it possible within Lovelace to have a script represented by an icon where when you tap the icon the script executes?

raven nacelle Dec 19, 2018, 5:52 PM

#

Yes, depending on what card you are working on.

hey guys, im updated to 84.3, changed to storage mode and saved my lovelace yaml file in the editor, it was giving me an issue when I tried to custom-ui stuff, so I cleared out the code from the editor but left a line in there I think and now nothing is displaying on the lovelace page, not even the menus. I swapped the configuration to using the yaml file and it works, but I want to use storage mode. I reinstalled a previous snapshot then upgraded again, but its still that way.

#

@honest cliff you likely had an error in your yaml that you saved in the raw editor. we're hoping to make the more robust so that at the very least you can get back to the editor.
you can edit the storage file, not recommend, but in your case that would be the resolution. it is stored in json, instead of yaml, which can in some ways make it a little harder to work with/debug.

#

also, what do you mean by custom-ui?

#

actual custom-ui or custom cards?

honest cliff Dec 19, 2018, 7:15 PM

#

@mild veldt I meant "Configure UI" and where do I find the json file to edit? I dont mind poking at it to try to edit. Worst case I burn it all down and start over. No big.

hey guys, since version 84 there have been quite some changes in lovelace, in particular the - type: entity-button icon: mdi:sleep name: God natt tap_action: action: call-service service: scene.turn_on service_data: entity_id: scene.god_natt

#

      - type: entity-button
        icon: mdi:sleep
        name: God natt
        tap_action:
          action: call-service
          service: scene.turn_on
          service_data: 
            entity_id: scene.god_natt

#

thing is anoying. ther are two entity entity definitions in here

#

we could have a default, where entity_id can be omitted and it would take the vale of entity from the icon itself

#

          - entity: scene.kickern
            icon: mdi:soccer
            tap_action:
              action: call-service
              service: scene.turn_on
              service_data:
                entity_id: scene.kickern

#

is a better example. the scene.kickern is totaly redundant

goode evening people

#

i have read this:
So if you were using Lovelace before 0.84, you now have two options. Option one is to use the new storage mode and import your existing file. You can do this by opening the Lovelace UI and click on Configure UI,

#

i cant find the configure UI button
