im obviously confusing service and entity somehow

split granite Dec 31, 2018, 1:09 PM

#

The entity_id is the thing you're acting on

#

The service is the action

royal rapids Dec 31, 2018, 1:09 PM

#

another question, how can I display the target_temperature in a grap? I find it in history but not under enities

split granite Dec 31, 2018, 1:09 PM

#

You'd have to create a template sensor

#

~sensor.template

royal rapids Dec 31, 2018, 1:10 PM

#

thank you

#

The logical way would then be

- type: entity-button
        entity: group.livingroom
        name: Living Room
        icon: mdi:lamp
        tap_action:
          action: call-service
          service: homeassistant.turn_on
          service_data:
            entity_id: group.livingroom
          entity: script.turn_off_lights

but is it that simple. (im testing now)

#

bah. I would ahve understood

split granite Dec 31, 2018, 1:13 PM

#

That doesn't look right

#

You have an extra entity: that shouldn't be there

#

        tap_action:
          action: call-service
          service: script.turn_off_lights

?

split granite Dec 31, 2018, 1:14 PM

Do you want to turn off the group of lights, or do you want to run the script?

~yaml @royal rapids

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

Why not have the tap action as a toggle?

With the Lovelace changes in 0.84.x, how do you change the view order (tabs) while in Storage Mode? Is this possible?

wheat current Dec 31, 2018, 2:06 PM

#

Just the "Raw config editor" to move them

late knoll Dec 31, 2018, 3:45 PM

#

It doesn't appear that the history-graph card respects Imperial / Metric setting in the hass config. Maybe I'm doing something incorrectly?
https://pasteboard.co/HU9Uilf.png

      - type: history-graph
        title: Temperature
        hours_to_show: 168
        refresh_interval: 300
        entities:

          - entity: sensor.weather_temperature
            name: Outside

polar kelp Dec 31, 2018, 4:20 PM

#

I’d expect it to just go with the state value of the sensor, whatever unit that is.

#

As is so often the case, a template sensor is probably the solution.

late knoll Dec 31, 2018, 4:24 PM

#

works for me. thanks @polar kelp

#

I still think it's being reported inaccurately. Maybe it's stored in the database in celcius (I haven't bothered to write a script to actually check), but the degree amount read back to me is still converted to fahrenheit.

digital lion Dec 31, 2018, 4:29 PM

#

how can i put my Light cards beside the other instead of under it

#

got this: ```
views:

title: Main
icon: mdi:house-circle
cards:
- type: light
  entity: light.bed_lamp
- type: light
  entity: light.bureau_lamp

#

but how to fix it

split granite Dec 31, 2018, 4:39 PM

#

You'd need to use a horizontal stack, and put both cards in that stack

short hemlock Dec 31, 2018, 5:14 PM

#

@wheat current re: Moving View Order (tabs), if I edit something in the "Raw Config Editor", will that mess up the ability to use !secret and !include? Don't want to screw up with I have now and the release notes aren't clear as to which specific configuration screws up the ability to use those aspects of configuration.

wheat current Dec 31, 2018, 5:15 PM

#

Maybe, i have not tried 🤷‍♀️

mild veldt Dec 31, 2018, 6:27 PM

#

@short hemlock yes. Only way to use secret and include are in yaml mode

short hemlock Dec 31, 2018, 6:29 PM

#

@mild veldt I'm super confused then by the Lovelace updates in the latest build. It auto-generated a Lovelace UI from my legacy UI (which had secret and include). I converted it to Storage Mode by taking control, so as I understand it, I'm not using yaml mode. Does this mean it's not using the secret and include files now?

mild veldt Dec 31, 2018, 6:30 PM

#

The auto generated did not use your secrets or includes

#

The auto generated just looks at your entities and groups and auto generates a Lovelace representation of them

#

Since you have already taken control (storage mode) you can open the raw editor and see how it all looks

#

And reorder if you want to

short hemlock Dec 31, 2018, 6:32 PM

#

So if I modify the raw editor, it won't screw up anything then?

mild veldt Dec 31, 2018, 6:32 PM

#

But you can not use secret or include in storage mode

#

Well you can absolutely screw things up, can’t stop you from doing that 😃

#

You just want to move tabs though?

short hemlock Dec 31, 2018, 6:33 PM

#

haha, yeah...poorly worded question. 😃

#

yes, just move the tabs.

mild veldt Dec 31, 2018, 6:33 PM

#

That should be easy to cut/paste

#

But, we will have the ability to do so from just the UI in the near future

short hemlock Dec 31, 2018, 6:35 PM

#

so the net regarding secret & include, that just means those passwords, urls, etc. are now exposed somewhere else in one of the files of my HA installation?

#

And if I add new !secret items to my configuration.yaml, those new items will not work in Lovelace?

mild veldt Dec 31, 2018, 6:48 PM

#

No

#

use of secret and include are only in terms of Lovelace configuration

#

Use of them in your configuration.yaml is not affected

vapid field Dec 31, 2018, 8:09 PM

Hi folks, happy new year to all.
I'm having problems with Lovelace....when I make a change to ui-lovelace.yaml the changes don't appear....I have to restart HA. Version 0.84.6. worked perfect in previous version I was running, 0.82.x....i have set Lovelace mode to yaml in my configuration.yaml

Also on 0.84.6, it reloads fine for me if I go to the three dots menu and select Refresh

Is it possible to add two sensor values together in a template sensor?

hi all. I've got a question.

#

Installed HA in a venv on macos.
www folder in place...but images don't show.

image: /local/image.jpg

#

I've tried everything I can think of...

#

any thoughts?

split granite Dec 31, 2018, 9:33 PM

#

When you first create www/ you have to restart Home Assistant

warm mulch Dec 31, 2018, 9:33 PM

#

I've restarted it 40 times since

#

I've been stuck on stupid for 2 days

split granite Dec 31, 2018, 9:33 PM

#

The other problem might be file ownership/permissions - is www/ owned by the user you run Home Assistant as, and are the files readable by that user

#

The log file may tell you more, and you can also try pointing your browser at the relevant image URL to test it that way

warm mulch Dec 31, 2018, 9:34 PM

#

I can code. I've made similar stuff for another html5 / js project, albeit json instead of yaml

#

755

#

the HA log doesn't show anything

#

i tried localhost:8123/local/image.jpg
nothing there

#

it's like HA doesn't recognize the homeassistant directory at all

#

except that I can see changes I make to other cards in lovelace

split granite Dec 31, 2018, 9:36 PM

#

#

404, or something else

warm mulch Dec 31, 2018, 9:37 PM

#

I understand. Didn't mean to get pissy...I'm just frustrated. sth so simple

#

404

#

well @ 8123/local/image.jpg I get a 404

in lovelace, the card is just shown with a broken image icon, and it's exactly that height.

split granite Dec 31, 2018, 9:39 PM

You are UTC?

split granite Dec 31, 2018, 11:04 PM

#

GMT this time of year, so yeah

wheat current Dec 31, 2018, 11:05 PM

#

Aha :D
We just bumpd the year here, not a fan of the noice...

split granite Dec 31, 2018, 11:05 PM

#

No, I'm not either

#

There's already been a run of fireworks earlier, which sent the dog into a spin

#

I'd like to put those people next to the world's largest speakers, turned up to 11, and play them some proper loud classical music

#

Maybe the 1812 Overture 😉

wheat current Dec 31, 2018, 11:07 PM

#

Now that would be fun to watch 😄

#

Thanks @split granite did not recodnice the name, so playing it now and can bearly hear the 🎆 😄

split granite Dec 31, 2018, 11:13 PM

#

😄

polar kelp Dec 31, 2018, 11:55 PM

#

I just watched the fireworks music by Händel. More suitable, but 1812 works too.

split granite Dec 31, 2018, 11:56 PM

#

Any music that includes actual artillery pieces gets a vote in my book 😛

polar kelp Dec 31, 2018, 11:57 PM

#

Unfortunately they are few and far between.

#

The only thing I can even think of that gets close is the ”Mahler hammer” (which really should be called the ”Mahler mallet”, btw seriously who missed that one?)

split granite Dec 31, 2018, 11:59 PM

#

😮

#

Just Googled that one, guess I'll be listening/watching tomorrow

But post the question here to, maybe someone else know 😉

spice ocean Jan 1, 2019, 2:29 AM

#

@wheat current Thanks. I've sorta got it working with Node Red. I'm just trying to move some sensors around

tribal cosmos Jan 1, 2019, 2:32 AM

#

@tepid locust yeah, a media entity card sounds just what I need... but as I said, i'm a noob. how do I make use of one?

tepid locust Jan 1, 2019, 2:34 AM

#

Are you configuring Lovelace through yaml files?

tribal cosmos Jan 1, 2019, 2:34 AM

#

right now? i'm doing jack diddly squat 😛 I just started looking into lovelace, but really have no clue what I'm doing currently. I was just doing something with a template to get something on the front page

tepid locust Jan 1, 2019, 2:35 AM

#

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

tribal cosmos Jan 1, 2019, 2:35 AM

#

but i presume I would be going the route of configuring via yaml when I do that

tepid locust Jan 1, 2019, 2:36 AM

#

Recently they gave different options for configuring Lovelace, you can also do it via the link now. I use yaml though

tribal cosmos Jan 1, 2019, 2:36 AM

#

so basically, i have a case where if the activity on harmony is chromecast, i want to make it show that data (for the chromecast)... if the activity is roku, i'd want it to show that data

tepid locust Jan 1, 2019, 2:36 AM

#

UI not link

tribal cosmos Jan 1, 2019, 2:36 AM

#

so I have the logic to display a simple text on the card, but want to make it show the media info

tepid locust Jan 1, 2019, 2:36 AM

#

Mix media control cards with the entity filter

#

https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/entity-filter/

tribal cosmos Jan 1, 2019, 2:37 AM

#

stares blankly at @tepid locust

tepid locust Jan 1, 2019, 2:37 AM

#

That may work

tribal cosmos Jan 1, 2019, 2:37 AM

#

ah, ok

#

so i'd put all the entities in the group that WOULD, then with my logic, basically mark one as "current" = true (example) and use that boolean to determine which one should show?

#

where do i build these entity filters at? is there a best practice to do it in a split-out yaml file or direct inside the configuration.yaml? in customize.yaml?

tepid locust Jan 1, 2019, 2:41 AM

#

It would be in the ui-lovelace.yaml file refer to the docentation I linked

#

You would need a different card for each input but you can configure the cards to be not shown when they are empty

#

Can also refer to my people section in much Lovelace config file on my github

thanks @tepid locust that looks like it might be helpful. now the daughter wants to play Rocket League... so much for trying to get some stuff done tonight

tepid locust Jan 1, 2019, 2:49 AM

#

Lol I know the struggle

tribal cosmos Jan 1, 2019, 2:49 AM

#

so those conditions... basically if that entity has the state listed, then it does that card?

tepid locust Jan 1, 2019, 2:50 AM

#

Of it has the state listed it looks like it shows the card

tribal cosmos Jan 1, 2019, 2:50 AM

#

i think i'm understanding it right... now to remember this understanding in a few hours if/when I can get back to it by then

tepid locust Jan 1, 2019, 2:50 AM

#

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

#

Can always scroll up lol

tribal cosmos Jan 1, 2019, 2:51 AM

#

😛

#

so this just gets tossed in the customize.yaml?

tepid locust Jan 1, 2019, 2:52 AM

#

In the ui-lovelace.yaml file. You'll need a bit more than that though. If you haven't made a Lovelace file refer to the docs and maybe watch a YouTube video on getting started with lovelace

tribal cosmos Jan 1, 2019, 2:53 AM

#

ah! I opened mine up

#

i used the add-on to convert my hassio to lovelace

#

so it has whatever that one did

tepid locust Jan 1, 2019, 2:53 AM

#

Can do some research while the kids are playing rocket league lol

tribal cosmos Jan 1, 2019, 2:53 AM

#

nope... i'm the one they want to play with

#

i'll be tied up

tepid locust Jan 1, 2019, 2:54 AM

#

I did that but ended up re making it from scratch, it turned out much better and I understand the structure of the file better

half cradle Jan 1, 2019, 9:25 AM

#

ok i am trying to play with lovelace but now all the work i did in my config file doesnt show it looks like its a default or something did i do something wrong

rugged musk Jan 1, 2019, 9:48 AM

#

same for me

split granite Jan 1, 2019, 9:51 AM

#

You're on 0.84.6, and you've not used Lovelace at all before (so no ui-lovelace.yaml, and no lovelace: entry in configuration.yaml)?

rugged musk Jan 1, 2019, 9:57 AM

#

yes

split granite Jan 1, 2019, 9:59 AM

#

Let me poke my test system and see what the auto-generated config looks like

#

Using the stock default_view my custom tabs are copied over, but my default view changes slightly

half cradle Jan 1, 2019, 10:10 AM

#

no i used it a while back just comming back

fiery temple Jan 1, 2019, 11:37 AM

#

Does anyone have a idea how i can make the spaces between the entrys smaller in the glance card? https://www.screencast.com/t/7t5WMvqZAmZz
https://pastebin.com/cuYMbMr8

#

the card itself work with todoist, and the data in the card are sensors, but im still not fully like the card its empty lines, behind those lines are hidden icons etc

#

would the beer card be usefull in this situation?

upbeat sierra Jan 1, 2019, 12:53 PM

#

hey.

#

switching to lovelace... how would i bring everything that was on the default (non lovelace) overview screen to my initial lovelace screen?

fiery temple Jan 1, 2019, 1:24 PM

#

@upbeat sierra , is was told there is a convert from @polar kelp , but it finaly choose to just copy paste everything in the ui-lovelace.yaml, gives you more experience in yaml to

karmic vessel Jan 1, 2019, 1:52 PM

#

how can i make like a horizontal stack stretch across the entire width of the screen more or less

spice ocean Jan 1, 2019, 2:17 PM

#

Check out panel mode https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/views/

mild veldt Jan 1, 2019, 2:44 PM

#

@upbeat sierra on 0.84 it is auto generated for you

karmic vessel Jan 1, 2019, 3:06 PM

#

i guess i might have misunderstood panel mode but i thought that stopped everything else from showing on a panel

karmic vessel Jan 1, 2019, 3:22 PM

#

i really don't like the default light element though yuck!

#

might have to see about doing some UI work hah

Constructive feedback...

warm mulch Jan 1, 2019, 4:29 PM

#

Hey guys, another quick question. This time it's a plausibility question. I'm waiting for a bunch of hardware to ship. I'm planning a frontend in my head, for now. I want to run lovelace behind fully kiosk on a couple of fire tablets as dashboards...and here's my question.
I don't really like the tab for navigation (switching views). It's personal. I just find tabs for navigation to be clunky and archaic.
Can I set the visibility of the tab controls to 0? or maybe shift everything up to remove the dead space up there where the Home title sits?

vapid field Jan 1, 2019, 4:48 PM

#

I currently trying to display weather on my default view:
The sensor is defined as such
https://www.hastebin.com/tovudeyemo.shell

But how do i get my group to display these information:
https://www.hastebin.com/itutavosol.css

#

Time and date is shown, but only the weather is not shown

jade bough Jan 1, 2019, 4:58 PM

@warm mulch https://github.com/maykar/custom-lovelace/tree/master/compact-custom-header

warm mulch Jan 1, 2019, 5:32 PM

#

@jade bough that's dang close. But I'm hoping to eliminate the icons as well

ivory burrow Jan 1, 2019, 5:47 PM

#

weather-forecast widget displays wind speed as km/h, but weather platform (weather.dark_sky) receiving this value as m/s. Could i customize measurement?

mild veldt Jan 1, 2019, 6:19 PM

#

@warm mulch that looks doable with compact-custom-header

#

Thomas also has a kiosk card

#

Or is it ciotism

polar kelp Jan 1, 2019, 6:19 PM

#

@vapid field you need a weather Component, not a weather Sensor. Unfortunately YR has no component at this point.

#

It’s not my kiosk card. It’s made by Marius.

mild veldt Jan 1, 2019, 6:20 PM

#

Right. You have the fully kiosk

#

Thanks

polar kelp Jan 1, 2019, 6:20 PM

#

I have some ideas for an improved one, though...

#

Like hidde some tabs based on username and such... can’t promise anything yet, though. The ideas list is getting long...

mild veldt Jan 1, 2019, 6:22 PM

#

@clever ore ‘s looks to be able to do that

#

I haven’t played with it much yet

polar kelp Jan 1, 2019, 6:23 PM

#

Neat. I didn’t have time to look at it yet.

#

But I half expected it to, to be honest...

mild veldt Jan 1, 2019, 6:23 PM

#

Yeah it looks really cool

polar kelp Jan 1, 2019, 6:23 PM

#

Then I can focus on automating the browser instead...

mild veldt Jan 1, 2019, 6:24 PM

#

ian wants to know more

tribal cosmos Jan 1, 2019, 6:24 PM

#

@tepid locust I got my card to work! now It will show the LG WebOS app if on smart TV activity, or chromecast info if on the watch chromecast activity 😃 I need to make a few static images for things like radio, etc... but it works! 😃

polar kelp Jan 1, 2019, 6:25 PM

#

Basically a service call that could e.g. Switch tabs, bring up the more-info dialog or a camera feed...

mild veldt Jan 1, 2019, 6:25 PM

#

Yes! Also on events?

#

Or I guess that could be done in an automation

polar kelp Jan 1, 2019, 6:26 PM

#

Yeah.

mild veldt Jan 1, 2019, 6:26 PM

#

The camera feed would be ace

clever ore Jan 1, 2019, 6:26 PM

#

yup, as for the earlier conversation. compact-custom-header can hide/show all tabs or hide certain ones, can even have separate settings per device or user

mild veldt Jan 1, 2019, 6:26 PM

#

The tabs too. Morning vs evening tabs

#

Too many cool people making stuff here 😃

upbeat sierra Jan 1, 2019, 6:38 PM

#

@fiery temple what exactly did you paste into ui-lovelace.yaml? the configuration.yaml?

fiery temple Jan 1, 2019, 6:39 PM

#

@upbeat sierra i posted a link

#

https://pastebin.com/cuYMbMr8

upbeat sierra Jan 1, 2019, 6:49 PM

#

thanks. but this is not what i am looking for.

#

if i am not using lovelace, on the overview screen i see all my entities, sensors, switches and their current state/value.

#

is there a way to bring that to lovelace ? like - preferrably with one command?

#

i dont want to list everything. I want a view, where I can see all entities I have (correctly) configured, so that I can use it as a starting point to then build the proper view for them.

mild veldt Jan 1, 2019, 6:51 PM

#

@upbeat sierra are you on 0.84? When you go to lovelace page it should autogenerate for you

upbeat sierra Jan 1, 2019, 6:51 PM

#

0.84.6

#

so if i delete ui-lovelace.conf it should genereate one for me, once i enable it by clicking the "try out the new lovelace UI" in (i) ?

mild veldt Jan 1, 2019, 6:52 PM

upbeat sierra Jan 1, 2019, 7:10 PM

#

@mild veldt ah, thanks. was in yaml mode. switched back to auto and yes now i can see everything. is there any way to get what i am seeing as a configuration which i can include in my manual ui-lovelace.conf ?

remote igloo Jan 1, 2019, 7:14 PM

#

is there anyway to modify the icon color in lovelace based on state?

tepid locust Jan 1, 2019, 7:24 PM

is there an up to date listing somewhere for custom lovelace cards?

does anyone know of a working custom weather card for dark-sky? I like the default but it does not show percip probability

dusky mist Jan 1, 2019, 7:50 PM

#

i am building a dashboard a-la magic mirror, but using a kiosk with lovelace. i would love to invert the colors of the map card. does anyone know if that is possible?

jade bough Jan 1, 2019, 7:53 PM

#

https://sharethelove.io/picture-elements-cards/kodiremote-card can some one tell me where should i put the last part (with the acual commands CURL)? shell_commands.yaml?

#

and add shell_command: !include shell_commands.yaml in configuration.yaml?

warm mulch Jan 1, 2019, 8:49 PM

#

can I ask another stupid question, or is there a limit per day?

gentle tide Jan 1, 2019, 8:49 PM

#

I ask them all the time

#

No limits yet

warm mulch Jan 1, 2019, 8:52 PM

#

I'm working with a picture element, and an overlay image.
The picture element will show my floorplan. I cut out my living room, to use it for navigation.

Q1 Can I nest picture elements? Like picture elements inception?

Main question (2 if counting)...
Is there a simpler way to work with positioning? Working with percents seems absurd, when I'm trying to get the overlay to be pixel exact.

split granite Jan 1, 2019, 8:52 PM

#

We limit silly questions to one per millisecond 😉

warm mulch Jan 1, 2019, 8:53 PM

#

Q1- I could/should just try myself, but asking could save me an hour.

gentle tide Jan 1, 2019, 8:54 PM

#

@warm mulch I'm attempting something similar but haven't found a good answer for Q2 yet.

#

I think someone needs to develop a picture-elements card that can be controlled at the per pixel level

split granite Jan 1, 2019, 8:54 PM

#

@warm mulch It looks like it may work

warm mulch Jan 1, 2019, 8:55 PM

#

really?! Can I work with pixels? I don't really get the whole "top/left" concept yet.

split granite Jan 1, 2019, 8:55 PM

#

Not sure about pixels, but you can have images for the elements inside the main one

#

I don't think you can nest cards inside though

#

Pixels, no, percentages

#

Because the image will scale

#

So pixel locations at 500 x 500 won't work at 700 x 700

warm mulch Jan 1, 2019, 8:57 PM

#

can y'all point me at a decent explanation of the top/left percentage stuff

gentle tide Jan 1, 2019, 8:57 PM

#

@warm mulch https://github.com/ciotlosm/custom-lovelace/tree/master/plan-coordinates

split granite Jan 1, 2019, 8:57 PM

#

^^^ that's an awesome card

gentle tide Jan 1, 2019, 8:57 PM

#

I use the plan coordinates addon specifically for locating the percentages on my floorplan

warm mulch Jan 1, 2019, 8:58 PM

#

that's dope AF. Many thanks again!

gentle tide Jan 1, 2019, 8:58 PM

#

Just remember

#

It only works on crhome

#

Also, you might want to have a look at this other card as it seems similar to what you are trying to accomplish

#

https://sharethelove.io/picture-elements-cards/3d-floorplan

split granite Jan 1, 2019, 8:59 PM

#

HA Floorplan is not Lovelace, but may be worth looking at

#

You get total control, but it's a bit (ok, quite a bit) more work

gentle tide Jan 1, 2019, 8:59 PM

#

technically, the second link is still the picture elements card but they use opacity to section out the various rooms

#

@warm mulch I just realized that there is another example called Images Example at the very bottom of the Picture Elements documents page which might apply to your use case. https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/picture-elements/

warm mulch Jan 1, 2019, 9:11 PM

#

I'm using an image element

#

😃

#

for the plan-coordinates...excellent utility, I'll leave it in my sandbox for reference, but I had already nailed down better results (plan-coordinates said 30% but I'd already trial/error'ed 29.8%

#

the 3d floorplan is also on my agenda... but I thought I'd play first in 2d. I'm a total noob. My feet are barely wet

gentle tide Jan 1, 2019, 9:14 PM

#

Oh snap, we can use decimal values for the percentages?

warm mulch Jan 1, 2019, 9:14 PM

#

😄

gentle tide Jan 1, 2019, 9:14 PM

#

(runs off to edit my floorplan)

warm mulch Jan 1, 2019, 9:14 PM

#

to at least 3 decimal places

gentle tide Jan 1, 2019, 9:14 PM

#

That's fantastic

warm mulch Jan 1, 2019, 9:15 PM

#

but it gets really hard to see an effect at .001

gentle tide Jan 1, 2019, 9:15 PM

#

I can see that

#

I think I'll be good with a tenth of a percentage.

#

maybe a hundredth if I need to hit .25/.75

warm mulch Jan 1, 2019, 9:16 PM

#

.01 is actually meaningful

#

at least on my mac...I was seeing a pixel jump with .02 increments

#

where is my "home-assistant custom_components folder"?

gentle tide Jan 1, 2019, 9:20 PM

#

you have to create it

#

depending on which installation of Home Assistant you are using, that location will vary

split granite Jan 1, 2019, 9:22 PM

#

You can find it by looking in info

#

And it'll tell you where it is

#

https://developers.home-assistant.io/docs/en/creating_component_index.html explains what the folder structure should be

warm mulch Jan 1, 2019, 9:24 PM

#

cheers!

gentle tide Jan 1, 2019, 9:27 PM

#

I really need to fix Samba on my Ubuntu VM. Don't get me wrong, I like using Nano but editing ui-lovelace.yaml is becoming more of a chore the bigger the file becomes.

clear star Jan 1, 2019, 10:50 PM

#

did an update just bork my lovelace UI?

polar kelp Jan 1, 2019, 10:51 PM

#

Depends how far you updated

clear star Jan 1, 2019, 10:51 PM

#

i was early 8's to .84 i believe

polar kelp Jan 1, 2019, 10:51 PM

#

Then yes

clear star Jan 1, 2019, 10:51 PM

#

Is documentation updated?

polar kelp Jan 1, 2019, 10:52 PM

#

Yes. And there's a blog post detailing the breaking changes for each release - as always.

clear star Jan 1, 2019, 10:52 PM

#

i'm guessing view syntax changed -- my cards are still tghere

#

thanks @polar kelp

polar kelp Jan 1, 2019, 10:52 PM

#

The entire way lovelace is configured changed actually.

#

You'll probably want to activate yaml mode. But the blog post will tell you more

clear star Jan 1, 2019, 10:53 PM

#

thanks found it

#

cool

#

may move to storage mode as it seems yaml is 'legacy'

polar kelp Jan 1, 2019, 10:54 PM

#

Kinda-sorta-yes-but-not-quite

#

Storage mode is probably the best for most people.

clear star Jan 1, 2019, 10:55 PM

#

yeah i have mixed feelings lol -- yaml so i maintain ultimate control

#

but storage because newer

#

horrible logic

#

ill stick with yaml for now

#

Thanks again @polar kelp

gentle tide Jan 1, 2019, 11:01 PM

#

I would use storage mode if I could get custom cards working properly.

mild veldt Jan 1, 2019, 11:02 PM

#

I have no problem using custom cards and storage?

#

@gentle tide any in particular?

gentle tide Jan 1, 2019, 11:04 PM

#

I couldn't get any of the custom cards I use working properly in storage mode

#

Initially, they worked on a computer browser but not mobile iOS

#

After a reboot, they stopped working altogether (got the red card of death)

#

So I switched back to yaml mode

woven vortex Jan 1, 2019, 11:07 PM

#

I am using only lovelace and sometimes on the first load of my home assistant webinterface it loads every device in these bubbles. (this url will pop up when i get to my url: url/lovelace)
When I reload they are gone and i am on url/lovelace/0)
Is this something missconfigured on my end?

mild veldt Jan 1, 2019, 11:08 PM

#

@gentle tide I have no problem on PC or iOS with custom header and mini media

gentle tide Jan 1, 2019, 11:09 PM

#

In storage mode?

mild veldt Jan 1, 2019, 11:09 PM

#

Yeah

gentle tide Jan 1, 2019, 11:09 PM

#

I must be declaring the cards incorrectly

mild veldt Jan 1, 2019, 11:21 PM

#

🤷

gentle tide Jan 1, 2019, 11:29 PM

#

anyone successfully using the report_size: feature from Card Modder to tweak card sizes? I have questions

mild veldt Jan 1, 2019, 11:52 PM

#

@gentle tide I don't but understand the concept. Best to just ask the question

Well, according to the docs (https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-card-modder) the report_size feature should allow for modifying the visible size of a given card. I'm not seeing any difference in card size when I add that setting to my configuration and I'm not sure why.

polar kelp Jan 2, 2019, 12:34 AM

#

Not the visible size. The reported size. The value used by the layouting engine to decide in which column to place the card.

#

It's a tough concept to grok unless you read the source code for lovelace, really...

gentle tide Jan 2, 2019, 12:35 AM

#

I understand now

#

It's a logic feature, not a graphical placement feature

polar kelp Jan 2, 2019, 12:37 AM

#

correct

#

Well. It affects the way the cards are placed in the layout, but you won't see any difference to the actual card

gentle tide Jan 2, 2019, 12:38 AM

#

Maybe future iterations of Lovelace will give more control over placement and size of cards. In Lovelace's current state, I feel like I'm having to jump through far too many hoops to accomplish anything remotely cool looking.

polar kelp Jan 2, 2019, 12:39 AM

#

If you wish to change the height of a card, you can use card modder and just set style "height: 500px" or something

#

Well, the idea of lovelace is to have a sane default layout. The ability to customize it is just a bonus...

#

You should expect a few hoops then.

gentle tide Jan 2, 2019, 12:44 AM

#

Can card-modder alter the height and width of stacks?

ok, trying to do a picture card... dunno what i'm doing wrong. I made a folder "www" in my config folder and tossed a png there. then i reference it with "image: /local/image.png" ... but it fails to load the image on the page. Am I doing it wrong?

#

oh wait... i saw something about needing to restart HA before it will see the new dir... grr

#

yup! that fixed it. Thanks all the same 😃

It has taken me the entire damned day to figure out that I can use custom cards on top of a picture entity card.... FML

#

morning fellas. Another question. Still in the sandbox... I'm trying to implement a clock I found. But something isn't right. I get this:
2019-01-02 10:52:07 ERROR (MainThread) [frontend.js.latest.201812112] http://localhost:8123/local/custom_ui/alarm-clock-card/alarm-controller.js:27:113 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'attributes' of undefined

#

@113 there's a conditional.
if(workdaySensor && workdayTomorrowSensor) {

#

afaics, I've got all of the dependencies in place. I was only unsure about this dynamic 'monster' card, so in an effort to fix it I put a copy of the monster card in 2 places.

#

oh, and I get a very happy and thoughtful little toast 'Service system_log / write called' or sth like that. 😄

#

nevermind. Sorry. It was a "Fehler 60" again. 😂

small gyro Jan 2, 2019, 11:30 AM

#

Hey all - a quick question: I'm using card-modder and stacks to align my cards. However, when using picture element cards, they get different sizes (probably due to picture size) any good idea on how to make them align good? Or do I need to photoshop to even sizes`

#

Nevermind, I think I'll just rely on the height: x px in styles 😃

#

a bit of tweaking, but possible to make it work nice

You can find your config folder, if you don't know where it is, by looking in info

I´m going crazy!! i run 0.84.6 when going to dev info and pressing "Try out the new Lovelace UI (experimental)" i only get a meesage sayin "error while loading this panel" "go back". What the F should i do to solve this!!

#

I have no ui-lovelace.yaml file.

#

i want to start from scratch with lovelace

vapid field Jan 2, 2019, 2:07 PM

#

I'm confused now with the new web configurable lovelace ui. where is the config now saved? I've started with the yaml approach in the early days of lovelace

mild veldt Jan 2, 2019, 2:09 PM

#

@hybrid bobcat did you do yaml mode at any point? Remove it from your configuration.yaml if so

#

@vapid field in .storage/lovelace

#

@hybrid bobcat also try clearing your cache

hybrid bobcat Jan 2, 2019, 2:12 PM

#

@mild veldt i have no yaml mode in configuration.yaml and i have cleard the cache 1000 times now...tested all of the browswers as well...

#

In chrome i dev tools i get this error message: bootstrap:129 GET https://masked.duckdns.org/frontend_latest/74210f7068b283428136.chunk.js net::ERR_ABORTED 404 (Not Found)

#

i get that every time i click "Try out the new Lovelace UI (experimental)"

#

in the site-packages/hass_frontend/ there are two files namned like that, a tar.gz and a chunk,js.map but no file with just chunk.js

#

All other files in that folder has a chunk.js, a chunk.js.gz and a chunk.js.map

#

is it safe to extract the .gz?

small gyro Jan 2, 2019, 2:21 PM

#

Simplest way to clear cache in Chrome ?

#

Any "hot buttons"?

hybrid bobcat Jan 2, 2019, 2:22 PM

#

i have cleared it a 1000 times, it does not help! hot buttons? whats that?

small gyro Jan 2, 2019, 2:25 PM

@hybrid bobcat not releated to your question - was just asking about the simplest way to clear in chrome and if there are any shortcuts like ctrl-f5 or similar to do it

is there any good way to scale the interface of lovelace ? I have a tablet with a magnet on my fridge, but I can only see two cards at once because the resolution is crappy, our sight is good, so scaling it down atleast 50% would be nice :p

Hopefully you're already backing up .storage/ 😉

#

🤔

split granite Jan 2, 2019, 4:16 PM

IMO GitHub, if public, is not a backup destination

Because, you won't copy anything sensitive there, including large chunks of .storage/ and your secrets.yaml

short question: in the new storage mode (Lovelace) is there a possibility to comment something out in the raw editor like in "normal" yaml.
The reason is, i have a huge .yaml file with many components commented out for later use or understanding.

well if i could access it to do 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, this will prompt you to change to storage mode. This will unlock a new option in the menu called “raw config editor”. but i cant access it!

I have a question that I'm not sure if should go into the homeassistant group or the lovelace group so forgive me if I'm posting in the wrong group. I am starting to work on my first custom control. I'm using the content-card-example as a starting point and have that working. I think I need a way to lookup entities based on node_id. I have an august lock and am using the lock.entity_id generated by the zwave device to access it. Based on that lock entity, I want to be able include the lock entity, and several of the sensor entities on my card. So I need a way of associating the sensor devices and the lock device preferably without adding all the entities to the card in the lovelace file.

Its about the tap action setting. On my wifes iphone 5 SE the "on hold" action doesnt seem to work. Is it supposed to be like that?

It might be a bit sensitive to moving your finger while pushing. I don't remember if I got the fix in or not, but at some point it would not register as a hold if you moved even the tiniest little bit.

I hope this isn't too odd of a question, but does lovelace have a card (or some method) of playing a sound? use case: is to have HA open on my computer in the background in my home office and get a ding or something when an event of interest occurs. Since I would be working in another window, a visual cue is not good enough. And, yes, i can send sound to media devices but am curious on a super simple and reliable solution (and not have to worry if the media device is on)

I saw this in the Lovelace docs, "Just hit the refresh button in the menu at the top of the UI." I don't see that button anywhere. Can someone point me to it?

I'm configured to use yaml and have it. Are you using the storage method?

fathom smelt Jan 3, 2019, 5:04 AM

#

I clicked the "set lovelace as the default UI..." in the Developer Tools > About section

smoky mulch Jan 3, 2019, 5:06 AM

#

if you haven't added anything resembling this to your config, then you are probably using the storage method. It should automatically refresh when you do changes.

That worked, thanks.

Hiya all. I am having a little issue, not sure how to get it working again. I recently upgraded to a pi3b+ from a 3b. Decided to start from scratch to clean up all of my files, I did however keep a few of the files including my lovelace config file and the www folder and its contents. After doing a cache clear on chrome on my desktop, all of the image files fail to load. I had backgrounds, image files for the presence detection and a couple image files for nightstand lights and fans. Everything worked fine on the previous pie, and nothing has changed in these files. I am assuming for some reason HASSIO is not looking into the www folder for the files. This is how I am calling them via the lovelace setup "/local/noah.png" any ideas? Tried the forums, but they are down again tonight.

#

I should add, I have used the storage method, instead of the yaml

narrow robin Jan 3, 2019, 6:36 AM

#

@slim widget the only thing is that after creating the www folder you have to restart the server. Then you can use the local folder.

slim widget Jan 3, 2019, 6:38 AM

#

I have restarted the server about 50 times over the past couple weeks setting everything up on the new pi, I am thinking this is more of an issue with hassio and not lovelace. hmmm. I dont think its recognizing the www folder

#

I did my move from the old pi to the new one just a couple days ago. I never noticed that the images were not loading until last night getting my wifes phone setup

narrow robin Jan 3, 2019, 6:38 AM

#

have you tried accessing them straight from the web browser?

slim widget Jan 3, 2019, 6:40 AM

#

I have, I get a 404 not found error

narrow robin Jan 3, 2019, 6:40 AM

#

hmm something is not right then I can access anything via http://hassio/local/image.png

slim widget Jan 3, 2019, 6:42 AM

#

I just cant track it down. Bit frustrating, everything else moved perfectly except images and now testing my sound files are not accessible either.

#

I do have it all secured through duckdns and lets encrypt, but that never gave me any problems on the last pi

slim widget Jan 3, 2019, 7:05 AM

#

Well, its late so I am going to hit the bed and worry about it in the morning. Hopefully the forums will back up and I can get a post up. Thanks for the help Lopton, I am sure It will get fixed at some point lol

mild veldt Jan 3, 2019, 12:53 PM

@slim widget check permissions on the files and double check the path.

Hey, guys, I'm relativley new to Home Assistant, I've set up my lovelace UI now everything works after a few weeks of work. Now I have one question: I've got several Picture-Glance elements (Because my entities didn't fit in one card). I find it pretty hard to see the grey icons on a white Picture in the background. Of course I could modify the icon colour but I rather would like to adjust the colour/opaqueness of the bottom element that holds my entities/switches for my picture glance Element. Is there any way?

For what it's worth, I simply tweaked the image to darken the area that matches the element bar

mint geode Jan 3, 2019, 5:49 PM

Yes thought about that as well

But that doesen't help the problem imo

No, but it's a work around for now

mint geode Jan 3, 2019, 5:52 PM

Another question: Is it possible to configure different layouts for Mobile/Desktop? I could use the screen more effectively on a desktop then on my mobile device. If I open the web page on a desktop everything ist in one "column" and the screen width doesn't get used fully. On mobile it looks fine due to the much lower screen width.

split granite Jan 3, 2019, 5:54 PM

Not really, Lovelace will auto-flow to fit the size of the window, if you don't use any of the horizontal or vertical stack cards

ok, one last question: I've got a few mdi icons that don't show up in the frontend. They aren't too new, so I don't know whats going on. Examples would be mdi:alpha-s-box-outline or mdi:radio-fm

mild veldt Jan 3, 2019, 6:18 PM

#

@mint geode why would I make a new one when useful-markdown-card exists? I don't use it, but if there is issues while it is loading it would make sense to submit a PR or log an issue; not a rewrite

mint geode Jan 3, 2019, 6:19 PM

#

Sorry, I'm relatively new to HA/Github/everything really

mild veldt Jan 3, 2019, 6:20 PM

I would suggest going to the github repo for the card and logging an issue explaining what you see as a bug

mint geode Jan 3, 2019, 6:23 PM

#

Will do.

#

@mild veldtWhat about a colour wheel for lights? Like on the Lifx app?

mild veldt Jan 3, 2019, 6:36 PM

#

I don't have colored lights, so not too intriguing... 🤷

mint geode Jan 3, 2019, 6:42 PM

#

Would be a good reason to get some 😉

split granite Jan 3, 2019, 6:44 PM

I rather like the way that the Google Home app allows you to turn things on and off directly, or get more detailed control too. like shown in https://www.theverge.com/2018/10/9/17957004/google-hub-home-app-redesign if you don't have it

#

Custom cards like that could be pretty sweet

mild veldt Jan 3, 2019, 6:52 PM

#

@split granite is that really that different than what we already get from more-info in a long-press minus perhaps the look?

I was thinking that we should update the media player to look similar to the thermo/light cards which is pretty much the google home app

mint geode Jan 3, 2019, 6:57 PM

#

what about a virtual remote card?

mild veldt Jan 3, 2019, 7:02 PM

#

you can do that pretty easily with picture-elements or just entity-button in stacks

mint geode Jan 3, 2019, 7:04 PM

#

Yes, but thats relatively complicated, if you just had a virtual "Logitech Harmony"? That would make things a lot easiser

#

I dont't know how complicated that would be, for volume you colud call the services of the remote, just add a list of all the activities and basic navigation buttons

wheat current Jan 3, 2019, 7:07 PM

#

IMO That should not be a default card, defaults should be clean and simple, it would be quite "easy" to make a custom card for it, but picture-elements does the same job pretty well 🤷

mild veldt Jan 3, 2019, 7:07 PM

#

@wheat current I was asking for custom card ideas, but I agree, sounds messy

#

With the UI editor evolving these things will become easier to configure over time as well

mint geode Jan 3, 2019, 7:08 PM

#

ok

split granite Jan 3, 2019, 7:57 PM

#

@mild veldt I think the nice thing about the way that Google does it is that they're more obvious to use

#

It's less obvious that you get different features if you long press, or hold, or ... 🤷

mild veldt Jan 3, 2019, 8:15 PM

#

I see what you're saying and could that being applied to things like the light card, I guess

#

But most places that employ the tap/hold actions are focused on quick views of data, e.g. an icon

#

I guess anywhere we have a domain card, this could be applied to some extent

#

possibly

split granite Jan 3, 2019, 8:17 PM

#

True

mild veldt Jan 3, 2019, 8:18 PM

#

but that's really only media/light/thermo at this point

split granite Jan 3, 2019, 8:18 PM

#

So... crazy thought...

#

How about a "room" card

#

Where you have a selector in it for the room, and it shows you the cards/entities for that room

#

Yes, kind of like a tab, but without actually a tab 🤷

mild veldt Jan 3, 2019, 8:19 PM

#

in a dialog?

split granite Jan 3, 2019, 8:19 PM

#

(spit-balling based off the areas idea in the arch repo)

#

Dialog, or a dropdown (like an input select)

wheat current Jan 3, 2019, 8:20 PM

#

http://demo.openhab.org:8080/habpanel/index.html#/ like this?

split granite Jan 3, 2019, 8:20 PM

#

But without the click through, so you can pick the room from the drop down, and get just that room

#

That said, that's sweet

mild veldt Jan 3, 2019, 8:20 PM

#

@wheat current that's essentially views with navigation applied, right?

wheat current Jan 3, 2019, 8:21 PM

#

correct

split granite Jan 3, 2019, 8:21 PM

#

Their cards look like they work well on tablets and phones - not as pretty as Lovelace 😛

mild veldt Jan 3, 2019, 8:22 PM

#

@split granite so a dialog based on a click could already be accomplished using thomas' popup card, but it would be a manual effort

#

But once we actually have rooms in our devices I imagine that it would be a trivial manner

wheat current Jan 3, 2019, 8:23 PM

#

areas*

split granite Jan 3, 2019, 8:23 PM

#

room 😛

#

We also could do with a suitable card for cover, and fan. The fan's probably not that different from the light card

Who decides what becomes a lovelace default and what stays custom?

mild veldt Jan 3, 2019, 9:05 PM

someone has to submit it to the UI repo before it can be considered for core

#

ok, I've seen the slider card recently and I was wondering why that wasn't in core

mild veldt Jan 3, 2019, 9:06 PM

#

but a general rule is that core is for just that, core functionality. i.e. domain cards, organizational cards. one-off cards for a specific device type or service will not make it into core

mild veldt Jan 3, 2019, 9:09 PM

I don't trust anything that @winter hollow guy does

#

@mint geode I wouldn't be surprised if Bram brought it into core at some point, but some things are just better as custom cards. You can go option-crazy with them, put out new features instantly, users can edit them to work how they want them to work pretty easily

#

Where as a core card, is what it is

mint geode Jan 3, 2019, 9:14 PM

#

Ok, fair enough. But is my assumptiuon wrong that once lovelace is default, changes to the core cards are mostly non existant? In contrast to custom cards which (at least I would assume) can break/be changed with future releases of HA?

mild veldt Jan 3, 2019, 9:14 PM

#

No, not by any means

mint geode Jan 3, 2019, 9:15 PM

#

Ok, so my custom cards will never break?

mild veldt Jan 3, 2019, 9:16 PM

#

I won't make that promise, but imagine we will not do so (on purpose)

#

But things like the UI Editor have shown that there are perhaps some bad practices in custom cards that are making them difficult to use. e.g. the custom button-card is not editable

prime umbra Jan 3, 2019, 9:18 PM

#

@mild veldt will we have a better handle in how card fit when resizing windows etc...?

ya i know mate, you guys are roxing

#

great job in last months

mint geode Jan 3, 2019, 9:23 PM

#

@mild veldt Yes I understand and I don't wanted to make any critism. I found out about HA about 4-5 weeks ago and I'm still amazed about everything I can do with it. I was alwas looking for some sort of way of bringing all of my smart home stuff together into one app. Really amazing work you guys all put in.

split granite Jan 3, 2019, 9:25 PM

#

Just wait until 6 months has gone by, and you realise that the pace hasn't reduced at all, and there's still new things turning up

blazing nacelle Jan 3, 2019, 9:27 PM

#

Hello

#

@split granite Are you using Lovelacea and have added a custom card?

mild veldt Jan 3, 2019, 9:27 PM

#

@split granite HA will actually be 100% complete in 5 months

split granite Jan 3, 2019, 9:27 PM

#

@blazing nacelle Yes, and yes, but not created one

#

@mild veldt And at that point ya'll will move on to fixing the 8 billion bugs then 😛

blazing nacelle Jan 3, 2019, 9:28 PM

#

For some reasons my customer slider card is not working

split granite Jan 3, 2019, 9:28 PM

#

(runs for cover)

mild veldt Jan 3, 2019, 9:28 PM

#

We'll have a new UI to start developing

blazing nacelle Jan 3, 2019, 9:28 PM

#

{
  "type": "custom:slider-entity-row?v=1"
}```

mild veldt Jan 3, 2019, 9:28 PM

#

That way we can just keep ignoring bug reports

#

😃

#

@blazing nacelle don't include the ?v=1 in your type

blazing nacelle Jan 3, 2019, 9:29 PM

#

I have added the following lines in ui-lovelace.yaml

#

  - url: /local/slider-entity-row?v=1
    type: js```

mint geode Jan 3, 2019, 9:29 PM

#

@mild veldt funny 😉

blazing nacelle Jan 3, 2019, 9:29 PM

#

oh

split granite Jan 3, 2019, 9:29 PM

#

https://github.com/DubhAd/Home-AssistantConfig/blob/master/ui-lovelace.yaml <- that's mine

wheat current Jan 3, 2019, 9:29 PM

#

remove ?v=1 from the type @blazing nacelle

mild veldt Jan 3, 2019, 9:29 PM

#

i already said that...no one listens to me

blazing nacelle Jan 3, 2019, 9:30 PM

#

Oke will try

wheat current Jan 3, 2019, 9:30 PM

#

I find your nickname disturbing so I rather not read your messages @mild veldt

split granite Jan 3, 2019, 9:30 PM

#

But, he has pretty stars

mild veldt Jan 3, 2019, 9:30 PM

#

my sparkles are the best

wheat current Jan 3, 2019, 9:30 PM

#

case and point @split granite ...

mild veldt Jan 3, 2019, 9:31 PM

#

You should try it

#

Ian pats himself on the back

fine.....

mild veldt Jan 3, 2019, 9:32 PM

#

#

so hard

wheat current Jan 3, 2019, 9:32 PM

#

now then?

#

nope...

mild veldt Jan 3, 2019, 9:32 PM

#

this is hard to watch

mint geode Jan 3, 2019, 9:32 PM

#

😂

mild veldt Jan 3, 2019, 9:33 PM

#

waiting for @wheat current to deliver

split granite Jan 3, 2019, 9:34 PM

#

He's trying 😛

wheat current Jan 3, 2019, 9:34 PM

#

_moved to #the-water-cooler _

mild veldt Jan 3, 2019, 9:34 PM

#

@wheat current that kind of stuff should go to #the-water-cooler

#

@split granite will give you one more warning

split granite Jan 3, 2019, 9:34 PM

#

_Changes channel title to #frontend-archived_lounge 😛 _

mild veldt Jan 3, 2019, 9:34 PM

#

lmao

blazing nacelle Jan 3, 2019, 9:35 PM

#

Hmmm still not working.. I only have to place the .js file in config /www directory right?

mild veldt Jan 3, 2019, 9:36 PM

#

resources:
  - url: /local/slider-entity-row.js?v=1
    type: js

#

.js

blazing nacelle Jan 3, 2019, 9:36 PM

#

oh

#

and in the the gui i dont have to use ?v=1

mild veldt Jan 3, 2019, 9:37 PM

#

in the type, of the card, no

blazing nacelle Jan 3, 2019, 9:38 PM

#

entities:
  - type: 'custom:slider-entity-row'
title: Test```

#

Like this

violet talon Jan 3, 2019, 9:39 PM

#

can someone remind me how to clear my cache in chrome for a specific site? 🤦

prime umbra Jan 3, 2019, 9:39 PM

#

@wheat current would love to see you custom component updater work with storage
you can have a ui-lovelace.yaml doing the trick but the raw config editor will not show versions updated on it, even knowing they have update

wheat current Jan 3, 2019, 9:39 PM

#

That will not happen

violet talon Jan 3, 2019, 9:39 PM

#

I tried inspect > application > clear storage, but I'm still getting an error that I've since fixed and that doesn't happen in incognito

prime umbra Jan 3, 2019, 9:40 PM

#

cause is impossible to make it happen?

wheat current Jan 3, 2019, 9:41 PM

#

no, i'ts quite possible.
But.. at that point there will be a third party tool changing around in .storrage files.
Home Assistant should be the only tool to mess around in there.

blazing nacelle Jan 3, 2019, 9:41 PM

#

and ```type: entities
entities:

type: 'custom:slider-entity-row'
light.test_xxx
title: Test xxx```

prime umbra Jan 3, 2019, 9:42 PM

#

ya i get it but is a shame cause your component is a great tool to keep you updated with new versions available other then go time to time to all gits trying to see if there is updates

wheat current Jan 3, 2019, 9:43 PM

#

You could try to make it compatable, and make a PR to get it included in HA.
@mild veldt would like that, but I'm not doing it 😃

prime umbra Jan 3, 2019, 9:45 PM

#

ill be hopping you change your mind , you have a great tool there, it should make part of HA, makes no sense not to be part of HA

mint geode Jan 3, 2019, 9:45 PM

#

@violet talon is that what you are looking for? http://lmgtfy.com/?q=chrome+delete+website+specific+cookies

wheat current Jan 3, 2019, 9:47 PM

#

Sadly I will not @prime umbra

polar kelp Jan 3, 2019, 9:48 PM

#

Finally an update to lovelace-gen!

#

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

#

BREAKING CHANGES! (If you used the !resource directive or the experimental state templating)

blazing nacelle Jan 3, 2019, 9:50 PM

#

@split granite It doenst matter were i put resources in the ui-lovelave.yaml right?

#

  - url: /local/slider-entity-row.js?v=1
    type: js```

#

this one

polar kelp Jan 3, 2019, 9:51 PM

#

You mean before or after views for example? No, it doesn't.

split granite Jan 3, 2019, 9:51 PM

#

I don't think it matters, but standard practice is to put it at the start

blazing nacelle Jan 3, 2019, 9:52 PM

#

Its now:

#

icon: midi:home
views:
- title: Thuis
  theme: dark-mode
  cards:

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

#

and ?v=1 really needs to be included?

split granite Jan 3, 2019, 9:54 PM

#

It means that when you replace the card with an updated version, you can bump to v=2 and the new card will be loaded

blazing nacelle Jan 3, 2019, 9:54 PM

#

oh oke

split granite Jan 3, 2019, 9:54 PM

#

So, not really, but you'll regret it if you don't 😉

polar kelp Jan 3, 2019, 9:54 PM

#

It's required if you wish to use the custom-updater

blazing nacelle Jan 3, 2019, 9:54 PM

#

Nah testing it why i cant find the card

#

WIll deal with that later 😛

#

Hmmm

#

Expected a value of type `{entity,name,icon} | entity-id` for `entities.0.type` but received `"custom:slider-entity-row"`.
Falling back to YAML editor.```

cedar girder Jan 3, 2019, 10:00 PM

#

is it possible to create picture_glance card without any entities?

#

or any other card which will show camera pseudo-live footage without need for adding extra entities?

polar kelp Jan 3, 2019, 10:01 PM

#

Tryentities: []

prime umbra Jan 3, 2019, 10:02 PM

#

you not calling the card, how to find it

polar kelp Jan 3, 2019, 10:02 PM

#

Or picture-elements with an image: https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/picture-elements/#image-element

cedar girder Jan 3, 2019, 10:02 PM

#

@polar kelp cheers, [] works

blazing nacelle Jan 3, 2019, 10:03 PM

#

@polar kelp you meant me?

#

Oh

#

oke

#

😃

cedar girder Jan 3, 2019, 10:03 PM

#

@polar kelp this should be included in the documentation 😦

mild veldt Jan 3, 2019, 10:07 PM

#

@cedar girder submit a pr

cedar girder Jan 3, 2019, 10:07 PM

#

actually im trying to figure it out right now 😃

#

how to make a PR

prime umbra Jan 3, 2019, 10:15 PM

#

@blazing nacelle you using ui editor?

mild veldt Jan 3, 2019, 10:29 PM

#

@blazing nacelle just means there is not a ui editor for the slider entity row yet. You won’t find any custom cards that support the ui editor yet

prime umbra Jan 3, 2019, 10:30 PM

#

just click add card and then skip exisitng cards

#

and paste

type: 'custom:slider-entity-row'
entity: light.your_entity

polar kelp Jan 3, 2019, 11:30 PM

#

@mild veldt Is it even possible to add ui support for custom cards yet?

#

Wait. If the answer is yes; lie to me. I need to sleep tonight.

mild veldt Jan 3, 2019, 11:41 PM

#

It is not yet

#

Rest well

polar kelp Jan 3, 2019, 11:42 PM

#

Thought so.

When will Lovelace become the default UI? I imagine it will be soon?

0.85

@mild veldt it better be right ..... will be my first time

#

...I had nothing to do with Lovelace 😉

remote igloo Jan 4, 2019, 1:36 AM

#

Figured i would try my question 1 more time, Is there way to do custom icon colors based on entity state in Lovelace ?

#

or should i just focus on writing a custom card ?

#

entity state = x then green icon , entity state = y then yellow , etc etc

mild veldt Jan 4, 2019, 2:43 AM

#

https://community.home-assistant.io/t/lovelace-with-state-dependant-colors/72587/9

remote igloo Jan 4, 2019, 2:44 AM

#

i saw that but i needed something other that active and not active

#

also i am not using the picture elements cards, it was a bit overkill

mild veldt Jan 4, 2019, 2:48 AM

#

not possible otherwise, unless someone figures out a smart workaround. I wouldn't try to write a custom card, and would suggest adding a feature request to the ui-schema repo to allow for state-filters on icons

remote igloo Jan 4, 2019, 2:49 AM

#

do you happen to have a link for ui-schema repo

mild veldt Jan 4, 2019, 2:50 AM

#

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

remote igloo Jan 4, 2019, 2:51 AM

#

thanks literally just pull the link on google

remote igloo Jan 4, 2019, 3:09 AM

#

@mild veldt Hey i notice you posted a message on this FR https://github.com/home-assistant/ui-schema/issues/138 about using the customize template

#

Did you do that in the customize yaml ?

mild veldt Jan 4, 2019, 3:11 AM

#

Don't remember, but if I did, it is not the way it should be done

#

I think I ended up using state_image actually

#

And just making my own icons

#

I've scraped all that stuff since

remote igloo Jan 4, 2019, 3:12 AM

#

lol true, yeah thats what you said. i was trying to customize the icon color using template in customize but i could never get it to work

#

in and out of lovelace for that matter. I think the communicty post stated using custom ui but didn't want to go down that path at this point

mild veldt Jan 4, 2019, 3:13 AM

#

yeah, not recommended

#

submit a FR. I have a vague idea of how I would implement it generically so that all icons could use it

remote igloo Jan 4, 2019, 3:14 AM

#

https://github.com/kuuji/button-card , i basically want to do what this card offers

mild veldt Jan 4, 2019, 3:14 AM

#

I understand

remote igloo Jan 4, 2019, 3:14 AM

#

at the bottom it's state - value color

#

ill post the feature request with that reference . Thanks

mild veldt Jan 4, 2019, 3:15 AM

#

I don't like that format for the options, but agree with the desired result

remote igloo Jan 4, 2019, 3:15 AM

#

what would you suggest ?

I am trying to implement vertical stacks

#

I seem to break lovelace

strong sable Jan 4, 2019, 6:59 AM

#

Hi all, wonder if any of you can help me.
On my phone's, when we open the Lovelace UI the page always refreshes. Is this necessary?
It makes for a poor experience if the page refreshes every time I open the page (as an chrome app)

split granite Jan 4, 2019, 9:13 AM

#

@strong sable That's likely a phone issue, with it not having cached that app.

You're looking to manually switch?

Yes.

#

I can switch, but the gauge is "empty"

split granite Jan 4, 2019, 9:55 AM

I'd probably ask on that thread then, since it's a custom card

Hello, I have two input booleans, and I'd like to see single switches and a master switch in the card.
Is it possible ?
