what is this attention you speak of ?

#

I have just installed a new ADHD-TV

😄

wheat current Jan 4, 2019, 11:56 AM

#

Well... unless there is a major version bump nothing should break right?

split granite Jan 4, 2019, 11:56 AM

#

You say that... but it's happened

#

I think only once, but if it's happened before it'll happen again

wheat current Jan 4, 2019, 11:57 AM

#

Probably, since our major version still is 0 😛

I'm waiting for 0.100 since that'll confuse many folks

how do I get 24hour time format on graphs in lovelace?

split granite Jan 4, 2019, 1:13 PM

That's controlled by the display language in your browser

upbeat sierra Jan 4, 2019, 1:13 PM

#

hm. any way to override it from HA ?

split granite Jan 4, 2019, 1:13 PM

No, because it's controlled by the browser

If the graph card docs don't show it, then not without creating your own custom card

Hey all QQ! Is Lovelace going to replace both Groups & Customize ? I have replaced group with Lovelace & some of the Customize file, but wondering if it will replace customise completely? I think LL might be missing entity_picture.

split granite Jan 4, 2019, 1:47 PM

#

No

#

group isn't going away, it just has no part to play in the UI any more

#

customize still exists, for now at least

#

Also, https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/picture-entity/?

#

Or did you mean https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/configuration/customizing-devices/#entity_picture - which works for me

raw tiger Jan 4, 2019, 1:51 PM

#

Okay thanks for letting me know. I did mean the second one.

violet talon Jan 4, 2019, 2:02 PM

#

does hass do any caching server-side for lovelace? I've cleared my Chrome cache storage, db storage, local storage, service workers, cookies and keep getting an old JS file for a custom card

wheat current Jan 4, 2019, 2:04 PM

#

nope, it's all in the browser

mild veldt Jan 4, 2019, 2:05 PM

#

@violet talon what mode are you in and how are you updating?

violet talon Jan 4, 2019, 2:06 PM

#

storage mode? and editing /www/custom_ui/calendar-card.js

#

if I inspect in chrome and go to sources > pick my js file it shows the old cached version, if I browse directly to the file, it shows the correct version

#

I've tried going to more tools > cookies and clearing everything there, I've tried going to dev tools > application and clearing everything there

#

under devtools > network I have "disable cache" checked

#

ugh, it finally cleared

#

no idea what magic combo I used to get it to load the new file though

#

there was a conflict between the calendar card and the animated weather card both having a .day class in their CSS

#

there should be a style-guide for custom cards to have them prepend their classes with the card name to prevent conflicts 😉

wheat current Jan 4, 2019, 2:10 PM

@mild veldt finally showed up, that fixed it 😉

very basic ui-lovlace.yaml

#

whenever I try to add a vertical stack I just break things

split granite Jan 4, 2019, 2:47 PM

#

That's a bit vague 😉

balmy shore Jan 4, 2019, 2:47 PM

#

if I add - type: vertical-stack to the yaml file, I break the UI

split granite Jan 4, 2019, 2:48 PM

#

That's still a bit vague

#

Where are you adding it?

#

What does that look like?

#

https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/fT3PSZtqxc/ is a snapshot out of my own config

#

If you can show us what you're doing, we can help, but without knowing what you're doing it's practically impossible 😉

balmy shore Jan 4, 2019, 2:49 PM

#

I was trying to add above the cards: line

#

I see you have a cards: line before and after the - type: vertical-stack

split granite Jan 4, 2019, 2:50 PM

#

Yes, because the view holds cards

#

And that card in this case is the vertical stack

balmy shore Jan 4, 2019, 2:50 PM

#

was working off of https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/vertical-stack/

#

was not obvious that I needed a cards: line before as well

split granite Jan 4, 2019, 2:51 PM

#

That's because the vertical stack is a card

#

And so the docs show the config for that card

balmy shore Jan 4, 2019, 2:52 PM

#

once you realize that it makes sense

copper mural Jan 4, 2019, 2:55 PM

Why isn't the state-icons render up when using panel: true ? The issue now is if I using my computer and look at the floorplan and set the state-icon of 25px x 25px, it looks good there. But in chrome on my phone, it then being very large. Any ideas?

#

If I remove panel: true, so the image also render only one column, it looks good on both devices, with 15px x 15 px

balmy shore Jan 4, 2019, 3:00 PM

split granite Jan 4, 2019, 3:01 PM

You'll never get one size fits all 😉

copper mural Jan 4, 2019, 3:01 PM

#

Can it be set to be one size on panel: true, and another size when view in mobile?

#

Dont want two separate views.

split granite Jan 4, 2019, 3:03 PM

No, because the view is either a panel, or it's not - this isn't Schrödinger's View 😉

how would I add vertical stack to all the cards in https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/TsSh2Tpw8N/

split granite Jan 4, 2019, 3:09 PM

#

title: My Home

  - title: Home
    cards:

#

The vertical stack card goes after that

#

Everything else then gets indented under the card

on the file you sent me Tinkerer

split granite Jan 4, 2019, 3:25 PM

#

the last three are down to the formatting, they're fixable - I just hacked that together quickly

#

The first, well, just add --- at the start

balmy shore Jan 4, 2019, 3:26 PM

#

I did

#

but if I "fix" the indentation, I usually break it

@balmy shore 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/

So fix the others then, add spaces

balmy shore Jan 4, 2019, 3:29 PM

I'm trying to convert my UI from yaml mode to storage. According to the release notes i should click on configure UI in the menu, but that doesn't bring up the config editor. Instead it says i cant configure the UI in yaml mode. So what now? Should I backup my lovelace ui file and change my config.yaml back to storage-mode and try if it enables the ui editor?

Remove the yaml mode option from your configuration.yaml and restart

Thanks

rancid schooner Jan 4, 2019, 5:33 PM

#

With the new changes to lovelace, Do you all do the editing now via the webinterface, since when i'm writing larger pieces of code editing is very hard with all the spaces.

#

Normally I used notepad++

mild veldt Jan 4, 2019, 5:34 PM

#

Then use yaml mode

rancid schooner Jan 4, 2019, 5:37 PM

#

@mild veldt But is the new way going to be via the online editer , maybe with markup later. Or is YAML still something you prefer?

sour thunder Jan 4, 2019, 5:42 PM

#

I know in lovelace you can specify the tab on which these round bubbles with the unused entities/data should be shown. Is there also a way to show all cards (media players etc) on one tab? Without having to specify each one?

split granite Jan 4, 2019, 5:48 PM

#

No

#

Things have moved far beyond the old UI that vomits everything onto a single tab

mint geode Jan 4, 2019, 5:54 PM

#

I've now moved to storage mode but I have a few problems

#

I pasted in my raw ui-lovelace.yaml file into the raw config editor, once I save it deletes some horizontal/vertical stacks by itself, is tthat normal?

#

Like this: https://www.hastebin.com/kiyamenobo.cpp

mild veldt Jan 4, 2019, 6:00 PM

#

@sour thunder you could use the custom monster-card for that

sour thunder Jan 4, 2019, 6:05 PM

mint geode Jan 4, 2019, 6:06 PM

I also get some problems on entity updating that weren't there before. For example: My lights now seemingly randomly get the state unknown EDIT: Apologies, the entity update problems seem to be caused by my raspberry not being able to hold up with cpu by rendering HA and Discord in the browser at the same time.

mild veldt Jan 4, 2019, 6:14 PM

hi everyone. I'm on hassio with HA at version 0.84.6. I've set my default UI to lovelace, and have a super basic ui-lovelace.yaml setup (a single thermostat card). I've set the lovelace mode to yaml in configuration.yaml, but the UI still isn't picking up ui-lovelace.yaml. it appears to just be running the default where it throws every component on there. what could I be doing wrong?

mint geode Jan 4, 2019, 8:24 PM

Have you reloaded your page? (It should say /lovelace at the end of your url)

So, question, if i use the "configure UI" button, despite the warning, where does this yaml-file end up? I can't find it for editing, and it seems to use this file instead of the lovelace-ui.yaml in my config dir

#

sorry, ui-lovelace.yaml

split granite Jan 4, 2019, 10:58 PM

#

ui-lovelace.yaml is in the config folder, if you enabled YAML mode

#

Otherwise, it's a JSON file in .storage/lovelace

hot lotus Jan 4, 2019, 11:11 PM

#

And that .storage folder is not visible in default samba share settings i guess

#

hence the .

split granite Jan 4, 2019, 11:11 PM

The question is whether your Windows Explorer settings show it 😉

If i remove this file, it will use the yaml file instead?

#

It does

#

Or not

#

This is confusing

#

Even if i don't have the ui-lovelace.yaml or the lovelace in the .storage directory, going to my domain:8123/lovelace still shows cards

#

but it adds a /default_view to the url

I've fixed most 0.84 stuff now. But my alarm doesn't triggers anymore . Has this something to do with : sensor_data: entity is no longer passed as entity_id to service call and must be explicitly set ?

If you're talking about an automation @rancid schooner ask in #330944238910963714

If you're talking about a Lovelace card... what does it look like, and did you read the Lovelace change log?

#

tap-action and hold-action changed

Nah just the regular Lovelace alarm card. So no tap actions defined there

Hello all, 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. Can anyone help me out with this?

when upgrading to the newest version what do I need to do with my lovelaceui config file?

@mint geode project has v3.0.39, so likely introduced after that?

I upgraded hass.io from 83.4 to 84.6 just now. It appears my lovelace ui is no longer coming up. On HA restart, the web interface had an error "No ui-lovelace.yaml found". After a few refreshes the default ui came up with the lovelace link.

#

Didn't see anything in release notes that references it. No strange errors in the HA log. What else can I check?

mild veldt Jan 5, 2019, 3:21 PM

#

you didn't see anything in the 0.84 release notes...I have doubts

inland badger Jan 5, 2019, 3:30 PM

#

OK. I guess I should go re-read them.

#

Guessing the ui-lovelace.yaml moved?

#

lovelace using storage? How does that make the default page change? And where did all the lovelace documentation go?

mild veldt Jan 5, 2019, 3:37 PM

#

ui-lovelace did not move
lovelace has 3 modes; auto, storage, yaml
you are in auto mode if you did nothing
lovelace docs have not moved

inland badger Jan 5, 2019, 4:30 PM

#

@mild veldt Yeah, I see it now. It's hard to keep up with these guys. Thanks for the info.

I've imported my lovelace YAML into the new lovelace editor by pasting it in raw config editor, but I cannot use any of the new features of the "Configure UI" in my existing views. If I create a new view I then have the ability to add new cards and edit it with the new interface. Will I need to recreate my views manually using the new method? Or did I migrate my YAML incorrectly?

short willow Jan 5, 2019, 7:20 PM

#

Guys, can anyone assist me with a picture-elements icon, setting it's colour depending on sensor temperature? I reckon I must've done 3-4 hours googling so far 😐

#

I can statically set it using --iron-icon-fill-color, but any if () return else; just does nothing

raven nacelle Jan 5, 2019, 7:26 PM

#

I don't think we can use templates in Lovelace. I would just use icon_template in customize

short willow Jan 5, 2019, 7:27 PM

#

Hmmm okay, I'll check that out thx

#

How can I add a brightness slider to a z-wave dimmer switch?

raven nacelle Jan 5, 2019, 7:32 PM

Slider is not an official component, you can use the slider custom component @dense thicket https://community.home-assistant.io/t/my-lovelace-plugins/70726/8

dense thicket Jan 5, 2019, 7:33 PM

#

ooo thanks. Hopefully I can figure that out

#

i feel dumb for asking, but dumber for not asking, whats the correct way to get something off of github for tossing into hass.io? I'd like to be able to have my custom elements update when there are changes

#

I've been just copy pasting the code into an editor and saving the file, but that seems.... not smart.

#

https://www.home-assistant.io/addons/git_pull/ I think thats what I want 😃

Add-on installations is best discussed in #330990055533576204

short willow Jan 5, 2019, 7:46 PM

#

@raven nacelle : I don't mean to sound like a moron, but I'll have 8 different temperature sensors, and a floorplan picture-elements with an icon in each room. I have it sorted showing the actual temp, but I want to change the icon to blue/green/red for each one depending on the state of that individual sensor. Could you at least point me in the right direction of how to use icon_template please?

mild veldt Jan 5, 2019, 7:47 PM

#

@dense thicket download the raw file and upload it to your instance

#

@short willow I wouldn't go down that route

#

I would wait for something official to be added

short willow Jan 5, 2019, 7:48 PM

#

How come? I think it'll be quite effective visually

#

Ah k - something in the pipeline?

mild veldt Jan 5, 2019, 7:48 PM

#

Not quite

raven nacelle Jan 5, 2019, 7:48 PM

#

Then it doesn't solve the problem 😜

short willow Jan 5, 2019, 7:49 PM

#

Lol true

raven nacelle Jan 5, 2019, 7:49 PM

#

Until something official is available, you could use https://www.home-assistant.io/components/sensor.template/#icon_template

#

note that icon_template is not available for all sensors

mild veldt Jan 5, 2019, 7:49 PM

#

I'm just saying, solving the problem now takes a lot of effort and will not in future. So the question is can you live without it for a bit

short willow Jan 5, 2019, 7:50 PM

#

Oh okay, so a sensor.template is just a virtual sensor that's more configurable

#

@mild veldt but I'm a geek - what else would I do on a saturday evening while watching Fantastic Beasts lol

raven nacelle Jan 5, 2019, 7:51 PM

#

You can also customize existing sensors. See my customize.yaml for examples https://github.com/arsaboo/homeassistant-config/blob/master/customize.yaml

mild veldt Jan 5, 2019, 7:52 PM

#

@short willow submit a pr to core to handle instead then

dense thicket Jan 5, 2019, 7:52 PM

using the UI config how do I add custom card elements? I added the following to the beginning of the card but it doesn't work.

  - url: /local/lovelace/circle-sensor-card.js?v=0
    type: module````

raven nacelle Jan 5, 2019, 7:53 PM

#

One sec...can we not use state_image to partially address the issue

#

it will be ugly....but it will work

mild veldt Jan 5, 2019, 7:54 PM

#

Yes. That's what I've done in the past

#

Don't recommend

short willow Jan 5, 2019, 7:54 PM

#

state_image for an icon? And it's the temperature value not the state I'll be reading

raven nacelle Jan 5, 2019, 7:54 PM

#

it is the choice between the lesser evil here

split granite Jan 5, 2019, 7:55 PM

short willow Jan 5, 2019, 7:55 PM

#

arsaboo: I'm looking at your switch.driveway custimisation

#

#

Could I not just tweak that to templates: icon_color: > if (masterbedroomtemperature > 21) return 'rgb(251, 210, 41)'; return 'rgb(54, 95, 140)'; ?

#

Or am I thinking far too simply lol

raven nacelle Jan 5, 2019, 7:57 PM

#

yes, you could for the relevant entity

short willow Jan 5, 2019, 7:57 PM

#

Obviously add an else if for the 3rd colour

raven nacelle Jan 5, 2019, 7:57 PM

#

no...sorry that would not work

short willow Jan 5, 2019, 7:57 PM

#

Oh

raven nacelle Jan 5, 2019, 7:57 PM

#

masterbedroomtemperature is not valid

short willow Jan 5, 2019, 7:58 PM

#

It is for me

#

I have a sensor.masterbedroomtemperature

raven nacelle Jan 5, 2019, 7:58 PM

#

then use state

short willow Jan 5, 2019, 7:59 PM

#

Ohhhhhh so the thing I'm referencing is sensor.masterbedroomtemperature - which is already a temperature, so I use state to read the value of the temp, not just the generic value of the sensor itself

#

Light beginning to damn

raven nacelle Jan 5, 2019, 7:59 PM

#

you can build any template there...you will have to play with it a little

if you look below that, there should be a text line that says to set it to default

And if you do that, on 0.84 it auto-creates your UI for you

in the overview it only opens the old view

So, I have two custom elements, one works, one doesn't. Both have the same folder, and are linked the same way, with the correct file names. No idea why I can't get slider-entity-row working 😦 https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-slider-entity-row

mild veldt Jan 5, 2019, 10:04 PM

#

@dense thicket you need to give us more info to go off of

#

Are there errors in your console?

#

What is the physical path?

#

What does your resources seciton look like?

#

What does your usage of the element look like?

#

etc

dense thicket Jan 5, 2019, 10:04 PM

#

custom element doesn't exits: slider-entity-row
located in config/www/lovelace/slider-entity-row.js

#

I tried putting the resources block at the top of the config, and inline where it was being used, neither work (yet that's how the auto-config of my other custom element works)

#

          - type: js
            url: /local/lovelace/slider-entity-row.js?v=0````

#

woops... bad indenting, but you get the idea, it's properly indented in the file

mild veldt Jan 5, 2019, 10:06 PM

#

you should only have a single resources section in all of your configuration

dense thicket Jan 5, 2019, 10:06 PM

#

aha, I'll break them out and stick them together and see if that works

#

well, that didn't change anything at least, broke one is still broke, working is still working...

usage:

- entities:
          - label: Basement
            type: section
          - entity: light.ge_12724_3way_dimmer_switch_level
            type: 'custom:slider-entity-row'

mild veldt Jan 5, 2019, 10:08 PM

#

show me your updated resources

#

and is the error the same now?

dense thicket Jan 5, 2019, 10:09 PM

#

resources:
  - type: js
    url: /local/lovelace/slider-entity-row.js?v=0
  - type: module
    url: /local/lovelace/circle-sensor-card.js?v=0

Yes.

#

I've rebooted too, but I don't think that was needed.

split granite Jan 5, 2019, 10:10 PM

#

Rebooting is only required for some operating system updates

#

Not for tweaking any config files in Home Assistant

dense thicket Jan 5, 2019, 10:10 PM

#

I originally had bad data in the slider-entity-row.js but I've copy/pasted from the raw on git and then it still didnt work

#

is there a copy used somewhere else that it makes automatically?

mild veldt Jan 5, 2019, 10:12 PM

#

So I just put it on my dev env and had no issues

dense thicket Jan 5, 2019, 10:13 PM

#

could it be a permissions issue? ugh. 😃 I'm a bit out of my depth here

mild veldt Jan 5, 2019, 10:13 PM

#

I typically go to the file https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-slider-entity-row/blob/master/slider-entity-row.js and right click on 'Raw' and 'Save link as'

dense thicket Jan 5, 2019, 10:14 PM

#

i'll overwrite with that and see if it changes anything

#

nope 😦

#

permissions are the same on both types

mild veldt Jan 5, 2019, 10:16 PM

#

sanity check. how are you editing resources and your card?

dense thicket Jan 5, 2019, 10:16 PM

thats the exact error I'm getting

shortened it to a single light and still same error. It's like it cannot find the .js file

You would get a 404 if it couldn't find the file, assuming you did the resources section

Hey guys, wondering if someone can help me out with the error message "Custom element doesn't exist: mini-graph-card."

I created a folder in /config/ called "www", and put the "mini-graph-card-bundle.js" in there
Then I also created a file called "ui-lovelace.yaml" in /config/

However when i try and create a card, with the type "custom:mini-graph-card" it gives me the error above
Have i done something wrong? I'm doing all of this on a fresh install by the way

quick gulch Jan 6, 2019, 1:57 AM

#

how guys - how does the includes function work in lovelace? i'd like to have a seperate yaml for each page and just include via config however it doesnt seem to work - here is my lovelace-ui
!include /config/lovelace/resources.yaml !include /config/lovelace/frontpage.yaml !include /config/lovelace/sysinfo.yaml !include /config/lovelace/weather.yaml !include /config/lovelace/media.yaml

#

is there a reason this wouldnt work?

mild veldt Jan 6, 2019, 2:03 AM

#

@quick gulch if you are on 0.84 and are in yaml mode, that should work

#

@pastel hamlet did you restart? did you add it to your resources in lovelace.yaml?

pastel hamlet Jan 6, 2019, 2:05 AM

#

i re-started, i didn't reboot (it's re-booting now)
and yeah, i added

you're going to have to be more specific than that

would you be able to provide an example of adding two entities in a horizontal stack using GUI

mild veldt Jan 6, 2019, 6:32 AM

GUI doesn't really have anything to do with how you add it currently. It is still yaml

#

the examples in the docs are what you should go off of

#

thanks! I think i found out what I was doing wrong

pastel hamlet Jan 6, 2019, 6:38 AM

#

sorry for the dumb question, but when i want to add a custom card, can I do it with the web-ui, or do I have to do it all on the ui-lovelace.yaml file?

#

because i've been adding a new card, and putting in "custom:mini-media-player" as the type

mild veldt Jan 6, 2019, 6:39 AM

#

if you use the web UI at all, the ui-lovelace.yaml file is not used, your configuration is managed by HA and stored in .storage

pastel hamlet Jan 6, 2019, 6:39 AM

#

so how do i use custom cards with the web-ui?

mild veldt Jan 6, 2019, 6:39 AM

#

to add the resource, use the raw editor

pastel hamlet Jan 6, 2019, 6:39 AM

#

i added the .js files to config/www
and then created a file called ui-lovelave.yaml

mild veldt Jan 6, 2019, 6:40 AM

#

to add a new card, menu -> configure ui -> plus fab -> skip

#

@pastel hamlet https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BAgPPdH42Ko

pastel hamlet Jan 6, 2019, 6:41 AM

#

yeah and then for type i write "custom:mini-media-player" and it says "Custom element doesn't exist: mini-media-player."

mild veldt Jan 6, 2019, 6:42 AM

#

so you just started lovelace?

I read it

#

but I don't understood how to use the new mode of editing the UI without yaml

split granite Jan 6, 2019, 3:45 PM

#

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”. Open this and paste the content of your ui-lovelace.yaml file into it and click save. Note that YAML comments are not persisted and !include/!secret are not supported if in storage mode.

#

what do you suggest to use?

That's your choice. I use YAML mode. Others use storage mode. There is no right or wrong choice, it's just different

#

for components/cards?

split granite Jan 6, 2019, 3:56 PM

#

For components, certainly not

#

Those are not the UI

#

You also don't lose out on new or updated cards

No, once you're in storage mode, then it uses .storage/lovelace

#

The slider in the thermostat card moves in 1 degree steps. The up/down in the pop up from more info, which you don't get with the thermostat card, moves in half degree steps

vapid field Jan 6, 2019, 4:03 PM

#

so can I delete the ui-lovelace.yaml?

split granite Jan 6, 2019, 4:04 PM

#

If you want to

vapid field Jan 6, 2019, 4:04 PM

#

yes if it does not use it I would delete it

#

in any case I don't understand how to makes the thermostat show popup info on long press

#

where do you long press?

split granite Jan 6, 2019, 4:06 PM

#

I didn't, I just clicked on the entity

vapid field Jan 6, 2019, 4:07 PM

#

ok

#

I succeded

#

lol

#

I feel so dumb 😄

#

I added the entity

split granite Jan 6, 2019, 4:08 PM

#

You weren't using it before?

vapid field Jan 6, 2019, 4:08 PM

#

I added a termostat not an entity, I don't know that I can add a simple entity like that

#

befor

split granite Jan 6, 2019, 4:09 PM

#

Yet... you posted the code of you doing that...

vapid field Jan 6, 2019, 4:09 PM

#

that was the code I was using and it doesn't worked

#

now using storage mode

#

I visually added the entity and it worked

#

I don't know if it's ok to switch to lovelace now

#

it seems a second UI to me

#

it's like a duplicate

#

how many files should I manage now?

#

what about customize.yaml, groups.yaml, and so on?

#

are they needed even with lovelace?

#

if groups is now managed by lovelace, is group file neede? is it overwritten?

split granite Jan 6, 2019, 4:11 PM

#

The old UI is going away

#

Groups aren't just for display

#

Customize isn't going away (yet, anyway)

#

Lovelace exists because the old UI is tightly integrated with the backend, which is just crazy. The backend shouldn't care how things are displayed.

vapid field Jan 6, 2019, 4:25 PM

#

when will Lovelace became the default UI? will it ever happen? one months? one year?

split granite Jan 6, 2019, 4:26 PM

#

It's supposed to be 0.85 (3 days), but it's looking like it might slip to 0.86

#

Holidays seem to have disrupted development plans for some strange reason 😛

vapid field Jan 6, 2019, 4:33 PM

#

ah so it's very soon

#

just in time 😄

#

for me

#

can you confirm that in lovelace it's not needed to create a group for a view in groups.yaml?

split granite Jan 6, 2019, 4:36 PM

#

Have you anywhere in the Lovelace docs seen any mention of needing groups to create views?

vapid field Jan 6, 2019, 4:39 PM

#

no

#

the groups concept seems to have migrated to cards

#

am I wrong?

split granite Jan 6, 2019, 4:39 PM

#

For display purposes, yes

#

groups play no part in Lovelace

#

Views are defined within the lovelace configuration

vapid field Jan 6, 2019, 4:42 PM

#

ok nice

#

thanks

#

will the switch over lovelace be painless with 0.85 for existing users or there will be some huge change?

split granite Jan 6, 2019, 4:44 PM

#

The switch over will be no different than if you'd used it for the first time in 0.84

#

Which is to say that you'll get an auto generated new UI that's largely similar to the old one

vapid field Jan 6, 2019, 4:45 PM

#

ok but will the old ui be dismessed ot it will be supported for some time?

split granite Jan 6, 2019, 4:46 PM

#

I would guess that it'll still exist for a release or two, but maybe not much longer

#

And "support" - well, the core features will remain unchanged, but if you're messing about with any custom UI stuff then you're out of luck

vapid field Jan 6, 2019, 5:00 PM

Is it possible to make a Media control lovelace card disappear when the entity is turned off? I just noticed that when i turn of the my TV/chromecast, it pops up HA that there is an error, and it cannot connect to it? which is also correct according to my nmap scanning...

split granite Jan 6, 2019, 5:20 PM

#

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

#

Put the media control card inside one of those

Hi fellas. I dunno if this is the right place to ask, but here goes...
I've got a door buzzer that opens the downstairs house door. I'm looking to replace the antiquated wall phone controller with a modified sonoff switch to activate the buzzer.
And now my question...
Can Lovelace register a button 'press and hold' event, and activate the door switch for the duration of the button press?

vapid tapir Jan 6, 2019, 6:56 PM

#

I do not think it can do press and hold, but you can probably set a timer

vapid tapir Jan 6, 2019, 7:18 PM

#

So how can I make the lovelace ui thermostat card work with Ct100?

split granite Jan 6, 2019, 7:18 PM

#

Is it a climate entity?

vapid tapir Jan 6, 2019, 7:20 PM

#

yes

#

it has two climate entitys

#

they seem identical, except the target temps do not match (I assume AC target and Heat target)

split granite Jan 6, 2019, 7:21 PM

#

Then you have two thermostat cards I suspect, one for each entity

vapid tapir Jan 6, 2019, 7:23 PM

#

I have the single card working

#

but there is only 1 target

#

and then, even with this card, I still have to hand write my automations for setting the temperature right?

split granite Jan 6, 2019, 7:24 PM

#

Yes. Cards are for the UI only, for when your automations haven't worked IMO

#

If you're not writing automations, you're missing the point of home automation 😉

vapid tapir Jan 6, 2019, 7:25 PM

#

true, but I'm surprised there is nothing in the UI for climate

#

I mean, this is like the first thing people will ned to set up

split granite Jan 6, 2019, 7:26 PM

#

The first thing you need, maybe, but not most people

#

And no developer has yet tackled the massively complicated task of building a platform for managing climate devices automatically

#

It's far harder than you think 😉

vapid tapir Jan 6, 2019, 7:27 PM

#

but it's already partially standardized in the climate object

split granite Jan 6, 2019, 7:28 PM

#

That's about 1% of the problem

vapid tapir Jan 6, 2019, 7:28 PM

#

just need to generate a home temp / away temp

#

I guess i'm going to try node red, writing automations in yaml isn't that straightforward to me

split granite Jan 6, 2019, 7:28 PM

#

If you search #330944238910963714 (since this has nothing to do with Lovelace) you'll find a discussion of how complicated a generic configuration like this is

#

It's not as simple as you think

vapid tapir Jan 6, 2019, 7:29 PM

#

ok

#

well do you know where a template is for basic HVAC control?

split granite Jan 6, 2019, 7:29 PM

#

~cookbook

kind shellBOT Jan 6, 2019, 7:29 PM

#

The cookbook is a list of example automations and can be found at https://home-assistant.io/cookbook/. The cookbook also contains links to find people's GitHub copies of their installs.

split granite Jan 6, 2019, 7:29 PM

#

Maybe something there, maybe on the forum, I know there are a few threads about it

vapid tapir Jan 6, 2019, 7:31 PM

#

it would be nice to have a card for "configure"

#

that ties into some of these basic automations

#

so values like hours offset could be adjusted from UI

vapid field Jan 6, 2019, 7:43 PM

#

@split granite Thanks for link, Not sure I understand how i make it trigger based on a different signal?

#

where is the conditional signal and actual trigger defined

split granite Jan 6, 2019, 7:53 PM

#

@vapid field If you're just wanting a card displayed, it has to be conditional upon the state of something. That could be an input boolean you control through an automation, for example

Does documentation exist for rules outlining the proper method of nesting cards? I'm really struggling with nested vertical and horizontal stacks with button cards and I suspect it's because of some obscure usage rule of which I am not aware.

mild veldt Jan 6, 2019, 9:14 PM

#

I mean there are docs for the stacks...

split granite Jan 6, 2019, 9:14 PM

#

The only (stock) cards that can contain other cards are the horizontal and vertical stack cards

#

I've got cards inside horizontal stacks inside vertical stacks...

gentle tide Jan 6, 2019, 9:15 PM

#

See, that's what I'm attempting to do yet every time I end up with cards that disappear.

split granite Jan 6, 2019, 9:16 PM

#

Then probably your indenting is wrong, or you've tried to make a stack card the view instead

#

But... 🤷 you need to show us what you've done

vapid field Jan 6, 2019, 9:16 PM

#

Anyone knows how to set the height of glance cards properly? I tried card-modder but it breaks the card if I set a height style

You're trying to nest a stack card inside an entities card

can you do data_template in hass.callService in a custom lovelace card?

gentle tide Jan 6, 2019, 9:24 PM

#

@split granite And there is the "rule" I was looking for.

split granite Jan 6, 2019, 9:24 PM

#

The one I told you about earlier 😉

#

They're also the only cards that refer to being able to embed another card in them

gentle tide Jan 6, 2019, 9:25 PM

#

Yes. Your second explanation was much more concise (i.e. ELI5).

#

lol

split granite Jan 6, 2019, 9:25 PM

#

https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/entities/ for example doesn't say anything about being able to specify a card 😉

Apparently not

gentle tide Jan 6, 2019, 9:29 PM

#

So, I can't nest a stack inside an entity card. What about the other way around? That should work, yes?

split granite Jan 6, 2019, 9:30 PM

#

🇾 🇪 🇸 😉

#

Stack cards can hold any other card

#

That's kind of the whole point of them after all

what indentation error you find here? I copied and paster from the lovelace wiki and it does not work

split granite Jan 6, 2019, 9:36 PM

#

If that's in a view, it'll work

#

If you don't have those entities, it won't work obviously

vapid field Jan 6, 2019, 9:37 PM

#

I have the entities but I am trying to copy and paste this code in the visual editor of lovelace

#

it says

#

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

gentle tide Jan 6, 2019, 9:39 PM

#

Is it me or has the lovelace topic been split into two groups? Yaml Mode vs Storage Mode

split granite Jan 6, 2019, 9:40 PM

#

It's all still Lovelace

#

The only difference is how HA gets that config
