@crimson fable as long as you resolve the template before making the call you'd be fine

mortal cape Jan 6, 2019, 10:03 PM

#

Any common reason for not being able to see the line graph in a sensor card? I had them in the past.

mild veldt Jan 6, 2019, 10:11 PM

#

Do you have graph: line set?

mortal cape Jan 6, 2019, 10:31 PM

#

@mild veldt well, using the UI editor I was. But now that I've toggled editor I see it isn't in the yaml

#

err...I guess that becomes json now

#

Adding it manually fixed it. Thanks

mild veldt Jan 6, 2019, 10:38 PM

#

@mortal cape to be clear, you're on beta and using the new UI editor for the sensor card?

mortal cape Jan 6, 2019, 10:39 PM

#

@mild veldt yes

mild veldt Jan 6, 2019, 10:39 PM

#

okay. thanks. I'll check that out

Hello people, quick question. I did something stupid. I added some lines to the config in the web ui, and now it shows a blank page and I cannot do anything anymore. Is there a way to reset the whole lovelace config?

cloud vector Jan 6, 2019, 11:52 PM

#

Can anyone tell me how to replace the raw config input screwed up 🙄

#

I thought it would of not validate when saving if I had messed it up no I have no Lovelace DOH

#

Just realised we have both screwed up @devout grail

devout grail Jan 6, 2019, 11:55 PM

#

I was just thinking that :p

cloud vector Jan 6, 2019, 11:57 PM

#

What did you do? I managed to write in the raw config using the .yaml content from the file under storage probably not my brightest move.

prime umbra Jan 6, 2019, 11:57 PM

#

in storage folder file lovelace

devout grail Jan 6, 2019, 11:58 PM

#

@prime umbra Aha, got it 😃

#

@cloud vector Just fyi, its a hidden folder

#

Using samba atleast

prime umbra Jan 6, 2019, 11:58 PM

#

if you delete should alow you to get back minimal lovelace UI

devout grail Jan 6, 2019, 11:58 PM

#

Cool, thanks 😃

#

@cloud vector I was trying to get my map working again with the plan-coordinates jason thing

cloud vector Jan 7, 2019, 12:00 AM

#

I found it in storage\lovelace

devout grail Jan 7, 2019, 12:00 AM

#

But I tried to add the

resources:

url: /local/plan-coordinates.js?v=1
type: js

to the base lovelace config

#

didnt work though 😄

cloud vector Jan 7, 2019, 12:05 AM

#

I get this now

I don't remember how to set the text on a group... but you could make a binary_sensor and set the device_class to "door"

Hi all, wondering if anyone has set up https://community.home-assistant.io/t/australian-weather-forecast-using-bom-public-ftp/71195

I've downloaded the .py file, and put it in /config/custom_components/sensor
Then when I add the example to my configuration.yaml nothing happens

dusty sigil Jan 7, 2019, 10:35 AM

#

@pastel hamlet Have you restarted homeassistant after uploading the .py and editing your config? Any errors in Is your custom component being loaded? There should be a line in your dev-info-log about a custom component being loaded.

Hi guys, any way it's possible to style and/or resize the LIGHT cards? I've tried using card-modder, however it gives me a different colored "cone" in the graphics and doesn't look good.

@mild veldt in glance cards any idea what would be the size of a picture if you wanted to use instead a icon?

i have tryed with many sizes and no sucess

#

@prime umbra can't you just inspect the icon?

raven nacelle Jan 7, 2019, 7:47 PM

#

@prime umbra My impression was that the images are automatically resized.

full tide Jan 7, 2019, 7:47 PM

#

is there a way in lovelace to add additional info such as a short explanation of what an automation does when clicking on the entity in the entity card?

prime umbra Jan 7, 2019, 7:47 PM

#

well i have tryed many sizes and wasnt able to get it straight

#

@mild veldt what you mean by inspect ^^^

full tide Jan 7, 2019, 7:48 PM

#

use chrome developer tool

prime umbra Jan 7, 2019, 7:50 PM

#

ok it seems that regular icon is 24px by 24px

#

so let me resize and test

full tide Jan 7, 2019, 7:51 PM

#

@mild veldt do you know if there is a way to add additional info to lovelace card entities? would like so if my partner presses on an automation, it has a short description?

Anybody knows who made the Light Card? Maybe I should go straight to the source 😉 It's not a custom one. How can I find out?

#

@mild veldt looks like you authored the docs, are you involved?

#

I love the light card, but it would require some modifications for my use, and I'm not sure where to look

mild veldt Jan 7, 2019, 8:02 PM

#

pinging devs on chat is not how you request changes

prime umbra Jan 7, 2019, 8:03 PM

#

@full tide maybe with a popup card mixed with markdown?
https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-popup-card

mild veldt Jan 7, 2019, 8:03 PM

@small gyro if you have feature requests, file them against the ui-schema repo. If you have bug reports, file them against home-assistant-polymer repo

Hello friends. I have a question about includes in lovelace. Unfortunately my front end doesn't update the includes when I make a change to them unless I make a change ui-lovelace.yaml. Does anyone know if it's possible to have the includes update individually?

mild veldt Jan 7, 2019, 8:30 PM

#

use the refresh option found in the menu in lovelace

lofty summit Jan 7, 2019, 8:31 PM

awesome thanks! 😃

is there a script to convert current UI yaml files to lovelace?

balmy oxide Jan 7, 2019, 8:55 PM

i think so

#

@tepid raft https://sharethelove.io/tools/jinja-magic-scripts

nice, thanks!

pastel hamlet Jan 7, 2019, 8:59 PM

#

@dusty sigil yeah i've restarted
it's weird because it kills my sabnzbd monitoring...

tepid raft Jan 7, 2019, 9:03 PM

#

can lovelace still have the independent sensors at the top of a view like the old UI?

#

or does it have to be on a card?

balmy oxide Jan 7, 2019, 9:04 PM

#

@tepid raft theyre called badges

#

when you create a new view, it looks like u can define badges for them

tepid raft Jan 7, 2019, 9:05 PM

#

perfect, thanks

#

So I used to use group.all_automations to build a list of all automation entities. But now it just adds a single entity item 'all automations' that opens a new window containing this list. Any way to add that list to the main UI?

mild veldt Jan 7, 2019, 9:19 PM

#

@tepid raft add them manually or use monster-card

balmy oxide Jan 7, 2019, 9:19 PM

#

ive got no ide about that one, i just started home assistant less than 24 hours ago

#

i do what @mild veldt says, manually add them all to an entity list

mild veldt Jan 7, 2019, 9:20 PM

#

monster-card has a domain filter

tepid raft Jan 7, 2019, 9:22 PM

#

I don't see monster-card in the docs?

#

that just a normal card?

mild veldt Jan 7, 2019, 9:22 PM

it's a custom card

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

mild veldt Jan 7, 2019, 9:23 PM

Somebody created a tag for it ages ago 😉

oh another thing, i found it but this was a problem for me last night

#

im running hass on a dedicated VM instead of a rasberry pi

#

there are constant references to /local/ being mapped to <config>/www folder

#

how does this translate to my setup where i installed hass in a venv in a user folder?

#

/home/homeassistant/.homeassistant is my config directory

#

/home/homeassistant/homeassistant is my install directory

mild veldt Jan 7, 2019, 10:15 PM

#

So that’s <config>

#

Just add a www

balmy oxide Jan 7, 2019, 10:15 PM

so if i just make a www folder i can refernce it

#

ok

im getting:

Custom element doesn't exist: weather-card.
{
  "entity": "weather.dark_sky",

i did the resource include:

  - type: js

not getting why its not working

#

while

entity: weather.dark_sky
type: weather-forecast

does work but gives me the traditional weather forecast card, its bugging me

Also, there's zero need to restart for Lovelace changes

also if you change the resources?

#

cause i changeed that

split granite Jan 7, 2019, 10:28 PM

#

Assuming Hass.io, you have /config/custom_ui/weather-card.js?

#

It's Lovelace, you don't need to restart

fiery temple Jan 7, 2019, 10:29 PM

#

no i have, /www/custom_ui/weather-card.js

split granite Jan 7, 2019, 10:29 PM

#

Well, if that's a literal /www/ that won't work

#

/local/ means www/ inside your configuration directory

fiery temple Jan 7, 2019, 10:29 PM

#

yes i have that

#

/local/custom_ui/weather-card.js

split granite Jan 7, 2019, 10:30 PM

#

/ is special

#

If you start a path with / it means from the root

So /www/ and /config/www/ are different

/local/floorplan.jpg is supposed to map to /home/homeassistant/.homeassistant/www/floorplan.jpg ?

picture-element image: parameter should also take remote images from http too or not? because if i feed it a URL for a picture somewhere on the public internet, it doesnt work either

i can reach my picture http://homeassistant:8123/local/floorplan.jpg in my local network just fine

if i use a picture card instead of picture-elements, i can get the image to appear using /local/floorplan.jpg without problem

you would have to go to each machine and set it as default

#

my understanding from the info page on home assistant as it says 'for this device'

@steep breach it will be default soon

I just got Darksky working today, having never tried it before

#

dunno if that helps you, @fiery temple, but it's definitely possible to get darksky weather in lovelace

#

#lovelace config, within the card itself
type: weather-forecast
entity: weather.dark_sky```
```yaml
#configuration.yaml
weather:
  - platform: darksky
    api_key: !secret dark_sky_api_key```

mild veldt Jan 8, 2019, 3:26 AM

#

@dense thicket I would add mode: daily to your configuration to get further outlook

vapid tapir Jan 8, 2019, 4:30 AM

#

Hey guys, I have a wierd problem

#

I implemented a custom card for lovelace (google calendar card)

#

its all working from PC and my phone, but my wifes phone can't find the card

#

Custom element doesn't exist: calendar-card

#

I tried clearing the cache and refreshing in chrome, but it's always the red box

#

Nevermind, for whatever reason updating chrome cleared the cache and it's now working

jade bough Jan 8, 2019, 6:20 AM

#

@vapid tapir check your ul-lovelace code for the card: resources:

url: /local/custom-lovelace/custom_ui/calendar-card.js?v=1.0.1
type: module

#

check if you have this file in your location...

#

then add cards:
- type: "custom:calendar-card"
showProgressBar: false
numberOfDays: 14
entities:
- calendar.YOURCALENDARHERE

sacred geyser Jan 8, 2019, 8:50 AM

#

history-graph is still being a meanie

#

entities:

sensor.speed_test_download
sensor.speed_test_upload
hours_to_show: 48
type: history-graph

#

=> no state history found

#

but there's plenty of data from the past days, at least 5 points per day, is that not enough?

viral sorrel Jan 8, 2019, 10:58 AM

#

any interesting new cards in the last few months?

polar kelp Jan 8, 2019, 11:07 AM

#

As in custom js cards or as in the kind of stuff Toast used to post all the time?

#

Because if you want custom js cards, I'm kind of proud of this one: https://community.home-assistant.io/t/my-lovelace-plugins/70726/239?u=thomasloven

I don't supposed anyone has done anything along the lines of the monster card with regexp support for changing friendly name 😛

#

Can I change the color of a state-icon based on the state?

sacred geyser Jan 8, 2019, 2:26 PM

#

how hard is it to make a new card?

#

is it just html/css/js?

#

i wanted to make something to move my dafang, since having the default cards (up-stop-down) don't really fit

polar kelp Jan 8, 2019, 2:27 PM

#

Not too hard. Even I can do it.

sacred geyser Jan 8, 2019, 2:28 PM

#

and then it turns out @polar kelp is an engineer

polar kelp Jan 8, 2019, 2:28 PM

#

I am indeed... but not a software one.

#

You may want to consider the picture-~~entities~~elements route, though.

sacred geyser Jan 8, 2019, 2:31 PM

#

that could be an idea

#

you mean picture-elements though

polar kelp Jan 8, 2019, 2:32 PM

#

Yes

sacred geyser Jan 8, 2019, 2:34 PM

#

even easier would be a mix ofvertical and horizontal stacks, with a button for each card

azure sandal Jan 8, 2019, 2:34 PM

#

Hi all, i just switched to lovelace and have a question rg. the yntac in the UI editor

sacred geyser Jan 8, 2019, 2:34 PM

#

i wouldn't need images then, as I could use icons

azure sandal Jan 8, 2019, 2:36 PM

#

when i try this: - type: light
entity: light.hue_color_candle_1

#

i get the message: YAML Error: TypeError: type is undefined

#

if i remove the "-" and spaces it works for one light

#

but it doesn't for other cards (e.g. horizontal stack) - maybe i've git a misunderstanding rg. the syntax?

sacred geyser Jan 8, 2019, 2:48 PM

#

it works!

#

now i just need a white background or something instead of an empty image

mild veldt Jan 8, 2019, 2:53 PM

#

@azure sandal if you're working on a single card you don't need the leading -, as you're looking at a single card in the configuration and is handled by the editor. If you are looking at it in the raw config editor, you're looking at the full configuration and each card in a cards array would need to be have a - to specify it being a new card in the array

azure sandal Jan 8, 2019, 2:55 PM

#

ok, makes sense. Is there a yaml file where I can see the full lovelace confguration?

sacred geyser Jan 8, 2019, 2:57 PM

#

uhhh, picture-entities doesnt' support sizing?

mild veldt Jan 8, 2019, 3:04 PM

#

@azure sandal in storage mode, now, use the raw config editor found in the top right menu to view the yaml. The file is located in .storage/lovelace and is in json

slow wave Jan 8, 2019, 3:04 PM

#

is it possible to specify a width and height of a card in lovelace ?

azure sandal Jan 8, 2019, 3:06 PM

#

@mild veldt : Perfect - that helps to understand the structure a bit better

#

thanks

mild veldt Jan 8, 2019, 3:07 PM

#

@slow wave no. Use stacks with a panel view to customize your layout

slow wave Jan 8, 2019, 3:08 PM

#

@mild veldt aight, I tried that, but then on my fridge tablet one of the cards is wider than the other, and you have to scroll to see the whole card

#

@mild veldt I did this https://hastebin.com/ifukefixuy.bash but the weather forecast card turn out wider than the glance card

mild veldt Jan 8, 2019, 3:10 PM

#

They should share the space evenly...hmm

slow wave Jan 8, 2019, 3:11 PM

#

Hang on, I'll take a picture of it

#

https://imma.gr/77829x19022

#

This is what it looks like on my desktop though https://imma.gr/77830xed5fd

#

The problem was that when there was percipitation that would have to be scrolled to on the fridge

sacred geyser Jan 8, 2019, 3:23 PM

#

can i use a template instead of an entity in a card?

#

instead of just showing the used ram, i'd like to show used ram / total ram

#

instead of creating another sensor through a template

mild veldt Jan 8, 2019, 3:35 PM

#

@sacred geyser no templates in lovelace. you'll need to create a template sensor

sacred geyser Jan 8, 2019, 3:36 PM

#

awww, another one (or more)

mild veldt Jan 8, 2019, 3:37 PM

#

it is something that has a state, and should be in a sensor

sacred geyser Jan 8, 2019, 3:37 PM

#

i'm just trying to calculate a percentage from the used ram sensor

mild veldt Jan 8, 2019, 3:41 PM

#

🤷

#

You can always create your own element that supports templating as thomas has done with his useful-markdown-card

sacred geyser Jan 8, 2019, 3:46 PM

#

doubt that would be the easiest solution here though 😉

#

well, here's another question while we're at it: is there a quick way to have a card spawn 2 columns?

#

or even 3

#

3 can be done with the panel setting, ok, but then it gets hard to mix stuffs inside it

mild veldt Jan 8, 2019, 4:05 PM

#

some people out there have created some attempts at solving the flow problem

#

https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-layout-card

#

https://github.com/jeradM/grid-layout

#

I haven't used either

sacred geyser Jan 8, 2019, 5:16 PM

#

some more help

#

i'm trying to use this https://github.com/maykar/compact-custom-header

#

but despite solving the "components doesn't exist" error, i see no changes to my header

#

mmm, maybe i found the problem, hard-coded urls in the .js file, bad practice

#

yup, that was it

mild veldt Jan 8, 2019, 5:52 PM

#

@sacred geyser more likely you didn't read the instructions and use the dir option

sacred geyser Jan 8, 2019, 6:04 PM

#

i did use read the instructions, but chose to use a different folder since I already had it (hate putting stuffs anywhere), didn't think it'd have those paths hardcoded

fiery temple Jan 8, 2019, 6:13 PM

#

@dense thicket thanks i know that i have that working already, but i want the dark custom card

dense thicket Jan 8, 2019, 6:15 PM

#

Gotcha. Haven't tried to use that yet so I'm no help there. Good luck!

fiery temple Jan 8, 2019, 6:15 PM

#

thnx

shell torrent Jan 8, 2019, 6:36 PM

#

@sacred geyser if you configure another path you don't need to edit the .js
Options:
dir string '/www/custom-lovelace/compact-custom-header/' Directory that contains this card.

sacred geyser Jan 8, 2019, 6:37 PM

#

yeah, also noticed that too late

shell torrent Jan 8, 2019, 6:37 PM

#

a little backwards config in my opinion, but it works 😃

sacred geyser Jan 8, 2019, 6:37 PM

#

that's what happens when you don't read the whole documentation first

#

since it didn't work I didn't go read the optional params

#

oh come on, now lovelace is just making fun of me

#

how can i quickpaste an image here?

raven nacelle Jan 8, 2019, 6:43 PM

#

use imgur or other service to post image links

sacred geyser Jan 8, 2019, 6:43 PM

#

sacred geyser Jan 8, 2019, 6:44 PM

#

that card makes no sense

Either a transparent image, or an icon with CSS properties to make it transparent

hmmm, if I want cards to fill the screen but I want two lines of cards, do I somehow need to combine vertical and horizontal stack and panel ? I tried doing vertical stack and panel, and I tried doing horizontal stack and panel, but not sure how to combine the two, I currently got this

because just doing horizontal stack and panel just shrank the panels way too much

A horizontal stack, containing two vertical stacks, possibly with the view as a panel

slow wave Jan 8, 2019, 10:05 PM

wouldn't it be a vertical stack with two horizontal stacks ?

(or a vertical stack containing two horizontal stacks - however you want the "lines" to go)

so the first "type" should be a vertical stack right ?

so, icon_color is not supposed to work in LL?

polar kelp Jan 9, 2019, 12:24 AM

icon_color is not a native feature. It's from custom-ui. Support for that breaks from time to time, and I don't know the current state.

I think that is it....it is custom_ui related and I removed it recently

But there's a new version for HA 0.84.1 and above, so you could try that.

nah....I am hoping we get that feature in LL 😉

we already support icon_template

For template entities, yes.

Yes and no. It would require quite some changes to the frontend.

Custom-ui uses javascript in the templates. Hass normally doesn't. But it's by no means impossible.

@livid ruin I want two horizontal rows of light cards, because of scaling on my fridge tablet 😃

#

If I get only one row the cards get so compressed I only see half of each card

#

As such I was under the impression I needed a single vertical stack, and two horizontal stacks

#

And also Panel:true to fill out the screen

@hardy void just go to /states in the URL to see the old frontend, and what lovelace are you running ? Yaml or new storage ?

slow wave Jan 9, 2019, 10:16 AM

#

@livid ruin yes, those are the cards in the hastebin I posted,

livid ruin Jan 9, 2019, 10:17 AM

#

so each rectangle is itself a card?

hardy void Jan 9, 2019, 10:17 AM

#

ah ok, then i will wait for the next version

slow wave Jan 9, 2019, 10:18 AM

#

@livid ruin Indeed, each is a light card, is that a bad way to do it ? I was not aware if it was possible to combine multiple light cards

#

https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/light/ The example stated a single entity for the light cards

livid ruin Jan 9, 2019, 10:20 AM

#

I'm just asking because it can be hard to get the cards all to the same size if they are different kind of cards.

slow wave Jan 9, 2019, 10:20 AM

#

Yeah all cards are the same card

#

Light cards

#

so they should be the same size

#

and they are now if I just do vertical stack or just horizontal stack

livid ruin Jan 9, 2019, 10:21 AM

#

OK. Then I think you are doing it the wrong way around. You made 2 horizontal stacks and tried to combine them. Try 4 vertical stacks.

#

Lovelace orders cards from the top left to the bottom right, proceeding column by column. If the first column is filled, it switches to the second and so on.

worthy kiln Jan 9, 2019, 10:22 AM

#

I see a lot of people trying to scale the cards with "panel: true", vertical and horizontal stacks, which is not really well supported within the GUI editor. What I would like to see is a grid based card which you can scale in the frontend by drag and drop of the edges. The grid itself should autoscale by the size of the window. The amount of grid lines should be configurable in the config perhaps. Why not go this way?

livid ruin Jan 9, 2019, 10:23 AM

#

Because this has a different design goal. Lovelace tries to be a flexible system, whereas your proposal would be rather static and fixed. If a card is missing or changing content, your grid system would be jumbled around or even overlap neighboring cards.

#

It is still possible with lovelace and custom cards and a well planned design that respects these edge cases, but it is not what lovelace does out of the box.

slow wave Jan 9, 2019, 10:25 AM

#

@livid ruin I understand that, but a single vertical stack was not usable as that meant I had to scroll a lot on a low resolution tablet, horizontal the same, the cards just get pressed into eachother, as such I wanted to try and combine the two to make something usable 😃

livid ruin Jan 9, 2019, 10:26 AM

#

A single stack is not what you are wanting according to your drawing. Your drawing shows either two horizontal or 4 vertical stacks, depending on your preferred direction.

slow wave Jan 9, 2019, 10:27 AM

#

Oh, that is also a way of course

#

I didn't even think of that

#

But I cannot seem to realize it in code currently anyway 😦

livid ruin Jan 9, 2019, 10:27 AM

#

I suggest you try around a bit with different stacks. At first it was also confusing to me, but by ordering my cards in different ways I quickly got a grip on how lovelace tries to order cards and stacks.

#

The code would just be 4 vertical stacks. Or what code do you mean?

slow wave Jan 9, 2019, 10:29 AM

#

Wouldn't it be like in my hastebin in theory ? A single vertical plus two horizontal ? Or I could do 4 vertical ? https://hastebin.com/norotawuto.bash

#

I have never seen a config with 2 or more vertical \ horizontal, so my mind cannot fathom it in code

#

do you have any examples ?

livid ruin Jan 9, 2019, 10:30 AM

#

You just do vertical 1 with card 1 and 5, then vertical 2 with cards 2 and 6, then vertical 3 with 3 and 7, then vertical 4 with 4 and 8. Then see how it is ordered by lovelace.

#

One problem could be that your stacks are "too short" so that lovelace tries to put two stacks below each other.

slow wave Jan 9, 2019, 10:42 AM

#

@livid ruin looking around for githubs with examples of more than 1 stack 😄 let's see if I can get any good pointer

livid ruin Jan 9, 2019, 10:44 AM

#

So where are you stuck? Just do 4 vertical stacks right after another and see what it gives you.

slow wave Jan 9, 2019, 11:00 AM

#

@livid ruin Like this ? https://hastebin.com/wupidatevo.bash

#

or, scratch line 5 I guess

livid ruin Jan 9, 2019, 11:03 AM

#

There are syntax issues in that... Where to start. 😂

#

delete line 5. remove two blanks from line 6 (cards has to be at the same level as title).

#

remove lines 15, 24, 33

#

You just need the "cards" keyword when you are enumerating cards.

#

So for example, each view starts with "cards:", and each stack is also enumerating cards, so needs a "cards:" section.

#

But not in between stacks or views.

#

I also think after you deleted all the superfluous "cards:", your indentation will be wrong, so correct that.

#

Or show the result and I will try 😃

#

https://imma.gr/77841xaf6d8

polar kelp Jan 9, 2019, 12:34 PM

#

panel: true makes only the first card show up - in your case a vertical stack containing 2 lights.

#

In the picture, you have four vertical stacks. One with the kitchen and hallways light, below that one stack with the office and bedroom, to the right one stack with top floor and basement and below that a stack with only a single night light.

#

Try drawing what you want. Make squares around what you want to be stacked together, and look at how they nest.

livid ruin Jan 9, 2019, 12:50 PM

#

Did you try to build this structure bottom-up, like I recommended? Add one stack, look at the result, add another one? With this system, you can directly understand what is doing what and why it is doing that.

#

If you want to build a lovelace-ui, you really have to understand every part of the yaml. It's a very strict language, so you have to understand the formalism. Every word, every punctuation, every blank has a meaning.

slow wave Jan 9, 2019, 12:51 PM

#

You are an angel @polar kelp https://imma.gr/77842x34875

@livid ruin Yeah, I'm getting there slowly, I started using lovelace like a week ago

For me, it really helped to use an editor that is yaml-aware. Highlighting and automatic indentation help a lot.

slow wave Jan 9, 2019, 12:53 PM

#

Yeah, I started using notepad++ with tab\space notation and tab == 4 spaces

livid ruin Jan 9, 2019, 12:53 PM

#

I can recommend sublime, for example. Atom is fine, too, but I had problems with atom over remote connections.

#

#

are there any plans to make the conditional card support OR?

livid ruin Jan 9, 2019, 3:41 PM

I mean, that would shorten the yaml, but you can always simulate a simple OR with several conditional cards. Complex stuff: just render a boolean.

sacred geyser Jan 9, 2019, 3:43 PM

#

i'd like to show a "turn off all lights" button card if ANY light is on

#

ok, that can easily be checked by showing the button if the button itself is on, duh

livid ruin Jan 9, 2019, 3:45 PM

#

For such more "complex" behaviour, I use a template boolean. So I can use as many convoluted If-then-constructs as I like (and can write down).

sacred geyser Jan 9, 2019, 3:46 PM

#

either that, or create a group and the check that group's switch?

#

Putting a markdown card in picture-elements is a common trick. You can use the style: settings to remove the drop-shadow. Toast used to do that all the time.

@sacred geyser No. Templates can't be used in cards. (but there are some approximations: https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-useful-markdown-card, https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-card-modder and most notable: https://github.com/ciotlosm/custom-lovelace/tree/master/monster-card)

basically what i'm looking for is a command_line switch with only one command

#

kitchen_light:
command_on: switch_command on kitchen
command_off: switch_command off kitchen

#

that's how it looks for two 😃

sacred geyser Jan 10, 2019, 10:18 AM

#

how do you toggle something stateless though?

midnight shadow Jan 10, 2019, 10:20 AM

#

might be a language problem, i mean stateless as in not showing a state on the ui, just like a text "Toggle" or "Press me"

sacred geyser Jan 10, 2019, 10:21 AM

#

well then, an entities card with one element in it

#

type: call-service

#

and then you call switch.toggle or whatever it is

#

which is the exact opposite problem i'm having, i wanted a non-stateless text

midnight shadow Jan 10, 2019, 10:23 AM

#

yeah but it doesn't work either

#

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

sacred geyser Jan 10, 2019, 10:23 AM

#

why not?

#

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

midnight shadow Jan 10, 2019, 10:26 AM

#

entities:
- type: call-service
icon: mdi:monitor
name: Monitore
action_name: Toggle
entity_id: switch.monitorpoweroff

#

that's what i tried, it just does nothing

sacred geyser Jan 10, 2019, 10:27 AM

#

yeah, you need service as well

#

service: switch.turn_off

#

service_data:

entity_id: switch.monitorpoweroff

midnight shadow Jan 10, 2019, 10:30 AM

#

well that was a classic me moment

#

before you answered i used service: service: switch.toggle

sacred geyser Jan 10, 2019, 10:31 AM

#

nah, I only caught it cause I was literally doing the same thing

midnight shadow Jan 10, 2019, 10:31 AM

#

to hilarious effect

sacred geyser Jan 10, 2019, 10:31 AM

#

did it toggle all switches?

midnight shadow Jan 10, 2019, 10:31 AM

#

aye

#

rebooting my machine, turning off a lamp and toggling the coffee machine

sacred geyser Jan 10, 2019, 10:34 AM

#

lol

midnight shadow Jan 10, 2019, 10:37 AM

#

so, service data is the identifier for the service called?

sacred geyser Jan 10, 2019, 10:40 AM

#

service_data is an array of all the data your service could need

#

most notably the "entity_id" so that you only trigger the one you want

#

or so it SHOULD be

#

see example #2 in that previous link

midnight shadow Jan 10, 2019, 10:42 AM

#

hm, i'm still not getting anywhere :/

#

entities:
- type: call-service
service: switch.turn_off
icon: mdi:monitor
name: Monitore
action_name: Toggle
service_data:
- entity_id: switch.monitorpoweroff

#

that pops up a "Failed to call service switch/turn_off"

#

surprisingly not writing anything to the log

sacred geyser Jan 10, 2019, 10:43 AM

#

that should work, actually

#

let me check mine

#

Failed to call service input_boolean/turn_off.

#

yay!

#

we're in the same boat now

midnight shadow Jan 10, 2019, 10:44 AM

#

awesome

#

i get a Uncaught (in promise) {message "invalid format", code "invalid format"} in the browser log though

#

that reminds me of my marriage

#

😄

sacred geyser Jan 10, 2019, 10:46 AM

#

calling it from the services page works though

midnight shadow Jan 10, 2019, 10:46 AM

#

yup, with toggle as well as with turn_on/turn_off

sacred geyser Jan 10, 2019, 10:46 AM

#

getting the same console error, can confirm

#

although i'm using input_boolean instead of switch so it's more of a general problem

midnight shadow Jan 10, 2019, 10:49 AM

#

hm, what format could that be... if you put in random stuff it says Service not found

#

so i guess it expects it weirdly formatted

sacred geyser Jan 10, 2019, 10:50 AM

#

caught it

#

it's an object, not an array

#

so you don't put the - before entity_id

#

(you being we)

#

fixed it for me

midnight shadow Jan 10, 2019, 10:52 AM

#

ahem, turns out i renamed the wrong script

#

aka another reboot when i tested switch.toggle 😉

sacred geyser Jan 10, 2019, 10:53 AM

#

at least you fixed it

lofty summit Jan 10, 2019, 10:53 AM

#

Hello friends. Does anyone here know if it's possible to have includes inside included files for yaml mode? Not sure if my formatting is just wrong or if it's not possible

sacred geyser Jan 10, 2019, 10:53 AM

#

how do I use colored icons in cards BTW? kinda like how turned-on lights have a yellow lightbulb icon

#

it would easier to tell at a glance if a certain entity is on if the icon is colored

midnight shadow Jan 10, 2019, 10:57 AM

#

like this? https://home-assistant-lovelace-gallery.netlify.com/#demo-hui-entity-button-card

sacred geyser Jan 10, 2019, 11:03 AM

#

that's just for lights though

#

i'm working with an input_boolean

midnight shadow Jan 10, 2019, 11:03 AM

#

so, thank you very much it is working now (had to take anti-reboot measures first just in case) 😃

#

then you must use a styler / card modder i'm afraid

#

there you can do things like:

#

style:
top: 21%
left: 97%
"--paper-item-icon-color": lightgreen

kind shellBOT Jan 10, 2019, 11:10 AM

Hi, how do I make the hold_action keep pressing the volume button, when held?

          hold_action:
            action: call-service
            service: remote.send_command
            service_data:
              entity_id: remote.harmonyhub
              command: "VolumeUp" 
              device: 58068245

polar kelp Jan 10, 2019, 11:11 AM

#

You can't. The hold action is triggered when you release the mouse button.

#

There would probably be too much delays in every step of the way to get it to work reliably anyway.

rancid schooner Jan 10, 2019, 11:13 AM

#

My remote control is working pretty ok now, a lot faster then the harmony android app. But volume changing needs me clicking 50 times

sacred geyser Jan 10, 2019, 11:13 AM

#

@midnight shadow since I'm not home I can't install new cards right now, so I was trying to make do with whatever was available right off the bat

#

guess i'll wait until this evening

midnight shadow Jan 10, 2019, 11:22 AM

#

is there any log of services called? i get a correct "Service switch/toggle called" popup but nothing happens the first time. the second time it works (until i refresh lovelace)

#

but without any log i can't really tell what's happening

sacred geyser Jan 10, 2019, 11:37 AM

#

how about the registry page?

#

from the lefthand menu

#

not a whole lot of help though

midnight shadow Jan 10, 2019, 11:45 AM

#

strange, when i use the command as a toggle switch it works first time

#

@sacred geyser i think i now want exactly what you want 😃

#

https://imgur.com/a/57rRKfG

sacred geyser Jan 10, 2019, 11:52 AM

#

kinda, except not

midnight shadow Jan 10, 2019, 11:52 AM

#

the Computer link should read Shutdown when it's on and startup when it is off. and the icon should be green/red respectively

sacred geyser Jan 10, 2019, 11:52 AM

#

ah, yes then

#

yup

#

mine are input_boolean on whether i want to receive a certain notification or not, but same concept

#

changing the action name itself was impossible with default cards so I created 2 cards (one for each state) that are shown/hidden based on the state itself

midnight shadow Jan 10, 2019, 11:54 AM

#

weird, that's a pretty common thing to wish for i would think

sacred geyser Jan 10, 2019, 11:54 AM

#

now since i've already got a card that's exclusively for the on status and one for the off status, i'd love to change their icons too, but while i can change the actual icon, i can't color them

#

(not with default cards)

#

lights are easy since they have full / outline icons, but most other icons don't

midnight shadow Jan 10, 2019, 11:56 AM

#

can you show me the two card code?

#

i think the modder option should work (when you are able to add a new custom card of course)

mild veldt Jan 10, 2019, 12:19 PM

#

@polar kelp how could I forget that picture-elements hack to use rows/cards 🤦 thanks for catching that

spiral haven Jan 10, 2019, 12:52 PM

Would this thread be the right place to ask about a "panel iframe" problem in?

rancid schooner Jan 10, 2019, 1:30 PM

When I try to run this card: https://github.com/lukx/home-assistant-jukebox/tree/fd6fb964369dd55c9638feaf374c62c86ec2e923 I get an:

https://xxxx.duckdns.org/local/jukebox.js:7:1 Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token <

My other .js modules do work. Could this be an error in the contributers script, or is this an error in my HA? Since there are no other complaints?

sacred geyser Jan 10, 2019, 1:32 PM

#

@midnight shadow https://hastebin.com/rocibededi.bash

#

repeat the same for another input_boolean

#

and then put them all in a vertical-stack card for cleanliness

radiant drum Jan 10, 2019, 1:41 PM

Hi! I am having some issues with the thermostat card after updating to 0.85 on docker. anyone else having this issue? it only shows a gray line.

mild veldt Jan 10, 2019, 1:50 PM

@rancid schooner you downloaded the html, not the raw js

#

save this https://raw.githubusercontent.com/lukx/home-assistant-jukebox/fd6fb964369dd55c9638feaf374c62c86ec2e923/jukebox.js

rancid schooner Jan 10, 2019, 1:53 PM

#

I downloaded the RAW js numerous times . Also tried to pasted the RAW javascript in my .js file, but nothing works. I also downloaded and saved your link, but same error. I verified the code in my notepad++ (it's raw js)

mild veldt Jan 10, 2019, 1:54 PM

#

then you're loading an old cached version of the file from when you downloaded it as html

#

clear your cache

rancid schooner Jan 10, 2019, 1:55 PM

#

@mild veldt ah right! That can be it

#

Is that the home assistant cache you are referring too?

i guess i'll stick to my solution for now, it works with no hiccups it seems

i'm only missing the colored icon feature but eh, guess i'll live

Using lovelace and the Ios app but get troubles loading the custom elements, works fine in ios browser

mild veldt Jan 10, 2019, 2:21 PM

#

@main meteor make sure you have "javascript: latest" in your frontend configuration.yaml

sacred geyser Jan 10, 2019, 2:22 PM

#

did anyone attempt at making a material-design 2.0 theme for lovelace?

#

rounded borders, shadows for elevations and the google font, possibly

meager grotto Jan 10, 2019, 2:25 PM

#

I'm using 0.85.0 and want to add a resource to my lovelace. Adding it using the "edit config" doesn't really add it. It's saved but it isn't stored

sacred geyser Jan 10, 2019, 2:26 PM

#

@meager grotto works for me in 0.84, what do you mean it's not stored?

meager grotto Jan 10, 2019, 2:26 PM

#

Will i added, it's saved but when I reopend the editor it's gone.

#

I'm also getting the red lovelace error that the custom component isn't found

sacred geyser Jan 10, 2019, 2:27 PM

#

it saves without errors though, right? where are you adding it?

#

i put it right at the start

main meteor Jan 10, 2019, 2:27 PM

#

@mild veldt I use javascript: auto

meager grotto Jan 10, 2019, 2:28 PM

#

same

#

resources:

type: js
url: /local/custom-components/compact-custom-header/compact-custom-header.js?v0

#

right as the first 3 lines

#

then I restart HASS and start using the component

meager grotto Jan 10, 2019, 2:29 PM

#

in 0.85.0 it doesn't seem to work

#

do you need to reboot after you added a custom resource?

sacred geyser Jan 10, 2019, 2:30 PM

#

restart, but I think you do, I do it just to make sure

#

perhaps you're not using storage mode anymore but yaml? or vice versa?

meager grotto Jan 10, 2019, 2:30 PM

#

I'm using storage mode, didn't change anything about it

sacred geyser Jan 10, 2019, 2:31 PM

#

no clue then, my HASSIO doesn't show any update yet so i'm still on .94

#

is there a way to force the update check? or is it just not out yet?

meager grotto Jan 10, 2019, 2:35 PM

#

The save doesn't trigger an actual save

#

created a polymor ticket

rancid schooner Jan 10, 2019, 2:47 PM

#

perhaps a stupid question, but I have this code

            pointer-events: none
            text-shadow: 1px 1px black
            font-family: Trebuchet MS
            font-size: 90%
            font-weight: bold
            border-right-style: solid
            border-color: rgb(34, 154, 210)
            background-color: rgb(54, 65, 78)
            opacity: 0.8

repeated like 20 times in my lovelace. Is there some way to only type that one time a make a define for it at the top of my yaml ?

mild veldt Jan 10, 2019, 2:47 PM

#

@meager grotto are you sure not getting an error in your browser?

meager grotto Jan 10, 2019, 2:48 PM

#

@mild veldt no i'm not getting an error

#

stop HA; restored a backup of .storage/lovelace; start HA. Hopefully it works

#

Yes restore works!!!

granite prawn Jan 10, 2019, 2:55 PM

i guess it could be great if you set up a tablet or something like that in a room and want to display the door camera in case someone rings

#

the day HA manages to integrate with the chromecast by casting itself to it it's gonna be even more useful

#

uh oh

i clicked on update in my HASSio update page

then i refreshed the page by mistake

is it safe to click update again or should I just wait it out?

@polar kelp switching to a different view for morning/evening | weekday/weekend

#

getting an alert, switching to an admin view (which is still switching views, I guess)

polar kelp Jan 10, 2019, 5:13 PM

#

Should be easily done with an automation.

shell torrent Jan 10, 2019, 5:14 PM

#

@polar kelp Is it possible to have that feature when clicking a device? I'm trying to find a way to have my thermometers listed in a usuual entities card, but when clicking the entity, I want to navigate to another view (the outdoor camera view)

polar kelp Jan 10, 2019, 5:16 PM

#

Look up tap_action. Almost all clickables support navigate nowadays.

shell torrent Jan 10, 2019, 5:17 PM

#

yeah, but not per entity (or am I wrong)? I only find the card clickable

#

I have a list with 10 thermometers (entities). I want to navigate to 10 different cameras (views) depending on which thermometer is clicked. Maybe I'm just doing it wrong?

polar kelp Jan 10, 2019, 5:20 PM

#

I suppose you are using an entities card for that?

shell torrent Jan 10, 2019, 5:20 PM

#

yep

midnight shadow Jan 10, 2019, 5:21 PM

#

just a quick sanity check: entity: weather.yourweatherentity in the case of darksky would be weather.darksky, right?

polar kelp Jan 10, 2019, 5:21 PM

#

Yeah, entities has only more-info on click at this point, unfortunately...

#

The plugin I'm working on is controlled from the backend. If you want something to happen when you click in the frontend, you'd need to send something back to hass. That's still not doable with entities card, though...

#

Tough one.

#

@midnight shadow Check in states

placid pivot Jan 10, 2019, 5:23 PM

#

@midnight shadow if you didn't change anything weather.dark_sky should be right

#

ok. thanks

hi, did the folder structure change? i just updated from 83 to 85 and my custom calendar card nor weather wants to load

gah, that underscore was missing. thanks

placid pivot Jan 10, 2019, 5:26 PM

#

I've found this template very useful when setting everything up

{{ state.entity_id }}
{%- endfor -%}```
put that in the template editor and it will spit out all your entities

#

@midnight shadow ^^

shell torrent Jan 10, 2019, 5:26 PM

#

@polar kelp but ok, so that you're working on could activate that in the video from a script or whatever action?

polar kelp Jan 10, 2019, 5:27 PM

#

A script or an automation.

shell torrent Jan 10, 2019, 5:27 PM

that would be awesome

#

@placid pivot Oh cool idea, thanks

polar kelp Jan 10, 2019, 5:30 PM

#

@tired quail ... or you can go to /dev-state states where they are all listed in alphabetical order with state and attributes...

placid pivot Jan 10, 2019, 5:31 PM

polar jackal Jan 10, 2019, 5:33 PM

#

https://imgur.com/a/NZGISUB Hey guys, I have 3 roller shades for a multislider as separate entities which uses a lot of screen real estate. Do you have any suggestions on consolidating them into a single line or smaller space? ie [Left] [Middle] [Right] [All]

polar kelp Jan 10, 2019, 5:34 PM

#

@shell torrent You might be able to use this: https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-popup-card to replace the more-info dialog of your temperature sensors with a card containing the camera feed. It won't get live updates, though.

vapid field Jan 10, 2019, 5:35 PM

how do you guys get custom cards working in .85? it seems to not save the ressources i paste from my old yaml

shell torrent Jan 10, 2019, 5:38 PM

#

@polar kelp Thanks, I'll try that. And for your demo, I have just started playing with calling the api from other PCs/devices And I see endless implementations of this. Like showing different views on the dashboard depending on who's home, what devices are in use, mediaplayers playing, ... Really cool.

raven nacelle Jan 10, 2019, 7:59 PM

@lunar trench Well, if you are on .82.1, more than likely your current config will not work as-is. Check the breaking changes in all the releases, but no way to check without actually updating

I use them alot. Are they just changed or removed alltogether?

#

nvm ill look it up 😛

mild veldt Jan 10, 2019, 8:08 PM

#

@split granite @lunar trench service-call changed as well in that you need to explicitly pass the entity_id if it is needed for the service call

#

📣 ⚠ I've confirmed that resources are indeed being removed on save in the front-end when using Raw Config Editor on the UI in 0.85. I recommend holding off till 0.85.1 if you haven't already upgraded until we know more. If already upgraded, enabled yaml mode https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/yaml-mode/

@meager grotto @granite prawn I recommend switching to yaml mode for now https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/yaml-mode/

on new version 85.0 i cant see on raw config resources: where they went?
when i upgraded all good but now start showing cards broke i have paste resourses and for some reason they are deleted

placid pivot Jan 10, 2019, 8:26 PM

#

anyone have any tips / examples for displaying the info from the tautulli sensor?

polar kelp Jan 10, 2019, 8:34 PM

#

@prime umbra 6 messages before yours. Also one single message before yours.

prime umbra Jan 10, 2019, 8:47 PM

#

what sux in this is when you already start using raw config editor, you end up not updating ui-lovelace.yaml so even if you use lovelace:
mode: yaml, will not do much for you in a situation like this, cause even if you have backed up before you will end up on a old environment
there should be a way to use the new raw conf editor and at the same time create ui-lovelace.yaml in case you want to go back to yaml mode

#

i hope not saying something wrong !!!!!

split granite Jan 10, 2019, 8:51 PM

#

You can convert JSON to YAML

prime umbra Jan 10, 2019, 8:52 PM

#

sound like a idea, how to go about it?

midnight shadow Jan 10, 2019, 8:53 PM

https://www.json2yaml.com/ 😃

split granite Jan 10, 2019, 8:58 PM

Or any of the other results you'll find from Google 😉

polar kelp Jan 10, 2019, 9:09 PM

#

json is yaml

glass oak Jan 10, 2019, 9:10 PM

#

technically correct, since javascript object notation is yet another markup language

polar kelp Jan 10, 2019, 9:11 PM

#

The Y in yaml is short for YAML (https://yaml.org/). But seriously, all json is valid yaml.

wheat current Jan 10, 2019, 9:13 PM

#

isn't it the other way?
yaml is json?

polar kelp Jan 10, 2019, 9:14 PM

#

No. ```json

a
list

is not valid json, but ```yaml
[ a, list ]

is valid yaml.

#

As weakly evidenced by the syntax highlighting of those code samples (or lack thereof).

woven island Jan 10, 2019, 9:16 PM

#

With lovelace, is it possible to edit the UI using BOTH the web interface AND YAML in a text file?

polar kelp Jan 10, 2019, 9:16 PM

#

no

woven island Jan 10, 2019, 9:16 PM

#

ugh, that's too bad

wheat current Jan 10, 2019, 9:16 PM

#

Then the internet lied to me :(

Technically YAML is a superset of JSON.

polar kelp Jan 10, 2019, 9:17 PM

#

That's still true. A being a superset of B means that B is A, but only part of A is B.

#

You may have confused it with subset.

wheat current Jan 10, 2019, 9:18 PM

#

yes

#

thanks 😃

copper mural Jan 10, 2019, 9:18 PM

Anyone know what has been crazy with one of my friends hassio? The badge in lovelace is blue and the "unit_of_measurement" is capitilized but they now in the sensor-attribute. See picture here: http://sv.tinypic.com/r/2rrqo3k/9

placid pivot Jan 10, 2019, 9:20 PM

like when you asked earlier you need to actually post an image

I didn't know it was deleted after first view. Changed upload-service now.

Anybody having problems with entity buttons not updating after certain set of actions?
Steps to reproduce:
On the first lovelace tab (view) I can without problem toggle my light using entity button
When I open the second lovelace tab (view) I open detail of some sensor and enlarge the window to see more detailed graph. I close it by clicking outside of the detail window. I then go back to the first tab and toggle my light - first toggle works and my light turns on, but the button stays stuck on the off state and repeatedly tries to turn the light on and wont allow me to turn the light off unless I refresh the page.

hey all, I wrote a custom component to monitor the status of my range rover.... everything works with the exception of the attribute I add for friendly_name and icon. I'm trying to get those shown on the map card in lovelace but it shows for some reason "HK" which is not in the friendly_name. The friendly_name I set in my code to the license plate number. The icon to mdi:car. Anybody know how to set the icon on the map card and the name for a specific sensor?

Hi
I'm migrating from Openhab and trying to port all of my devices.
Starting to get a grasp of the configs, but couldn't get the thermostat card working as intended:
Here's my climate entry:
- platform: knx name: "kitchen" temperature_address: '2/1/0' target_temperature_address: '2/2/0' setpoint_shift_address: '2/3/0'
I was trying to limit the slider from say 16 to 28 degrees (setpoint_shift_min and setpoint_shift_max), but that has no effect on the card.
Also the setpoint_shift_step is not working.

Any tips?
How are you guys solving this?

glass oak Jan 10, 2019, 10:16 PM

    - type: map

      default_zoom: 15
      entities:
        - rangerover.salyXXXXXXXXXXX70_position

glass oak Jan 10, 2019, 10:17 PM

#

also, what component is generating the car, (and it's yaml)

mint pilot Jan 10, 2019, 10:18 PM

#

I would love to be slapped with some documentation knowledge because my googling/wikisearching fails to connect a crucial set of dots: all cards seem to be defined as @royal crest just did above, with a -type entry. But where does said type entry go in the config?

royal crest Jan 10, 2019, 10:18 PM

#

config/custom_components/range_rover.py is generating the car

#

             main_dict.update({'friendly_name': car_friendly_name})
            main_dict.update({'icon': 'mdi:car'})

mint pilot Jan 10, 2019, 10:19 PM

#

  entity: weather.dark_sky``` for example.  It seems that snippet could be tossed _someplace_ in order for the card to show up in the Overview pane

royal crest Jan 10, 2019, 10:19 PM

#

then doing a hass.states.set on that

#

(on the dict)

glass oak Jan 10, 2019, 10:20 PM

#

that's probably a question outside the realm of this chat, since lovelace is probably pushing through what it sees

royal crest Jan 10, 2019, 10:20 PM

#

is there an attribute I can set for lovelace map?

#

thats the real q

glass oak Jan 10, 2019, 10:20 PM

#

no, it uses whatever the entity provides for it

royal crest Jan 10, 2019, 10:21 PM

#

hmmm, guess ill dig into source code then

#

must be something

mild veldt Jan 10, 2019, 10:31 PM

@mint pilot watch the YouTube video on modes that is pinned. Should help.

#

@royal crest check states and make sure it matches what you expect

Hi, Im using a sensibo to control my AC. It is using the "climate" option in the config file, so the thermostat card appears in love lace. You can get it to change modes, However you can't turn it off from that card, where in the old UI card pop up you can. Is there a way to manually add that option/mode into the card in the lovelace UI?

coarse monolith Jan 10, 2019, 10:44 PM

#

How do I revert to manual lovelace ui editor and not the web version?

glass oak Jan 10, 2019, 10:45 PM

#

raw editor or the ui-lovelace.yaml?

coarse monolith Jan 10, 2019, 10:45 PM

#

.yaml

kind shellBOT Jan 10, 2019, 10:45 PM

#

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/

mild veldt Jan 10, 2019, 10:47 PM

#

Look at pinned messages on YAML mode

coarse monolith Jan 10, 2019, 10:48 PM

found the config option, thanks!

Do you guys have any suggestions on consolidating the 3 entities for my left/middle/right covers which takes up a lot of card space? Are there any other cards that would best suite this? https://imgur.com/a/NZGISUB

@polar kelp is it currently possible to use your lovelace-slider-entity-row with monster-card? I have dynamic cards for lights that are on and would love for the view to be consistent and offer brightness control. 😄

polar kelp Jan 10, 2019, 11:52 PM

#

Hm... I think so... Should work if you put type: custom:slider-entity-row as option: in your filters.

coarse monolith Jan 10, 2019, 11:54 PM

#

That was it - I was missing the options -- thank you!

timid burrow Jan 11, 2019, 3:34 AM

#

@prime umbra to keep my ui lovelace yaml up to date I have been editing that and then cut/paste into raw editor anyway unless it's a minor change. I agree it would be great if both was maintained particularly because the raw editor at the moment totally screws up the old format and is much harder to work with.

Hello, I am having trouble adding my script to lovelace. The default interface shows up with ACTIVATE. I want to add it to one or my picture-glance cards

mild veldt Jan 11, 2019, 4:30 AM

#

I don't understand what is holding you back from adding it to the card?

timid wigeon Jan 11, 2019, 4:32 AM

#

entities:
- entity: script.kitchen
icon: 'mdi:ceiling-light'

#

Like so?

ocean moon Jan 11, 2019, 4:39 AM

#

is there a way to show/expand all group entities in a card, similar to the old UI? i'd like to see all my automations in a single card automatically, instead of manually adding/removing them

timid burrow Jan 11, 2019, 4:43 AM

#

Pretty sure you can't. need to add manually

ocean moon Jan 11, 2019, 4:44 AM

#

doesn't seem like it. I can put the group into an entity card and get a small window with all the automations after clicking the group. Guess it will do.

timid burrow Jan 11, 2019, 4:45 AM

#

yeah but you can't execute them from there can you?

mild veldt Jan 11, 2019, 4:46 AM

#

@timid wigeon that's not a picture-glance card

ocean moon Jan 11, 2019, 4:46 AM

#

eh, nope. only toggle them.

mild veldt Jan 11, 2019, 4:46 AM

#

i mean it could

#

be, but I don't know. you didn't give me the full yaml

timid burrow Jan 11, 2019, 4:46 AM

#

yeah... i just bit the bullet and added them all individually

ocean moon Jan 11, 2019, 4:47 AM

#

does this monster card still work?

mild veldt Jan 11, 2019, 4:47 AM

#

@ocean moon yes

#

monster card can filter on domain

ocean moon Jan 11, 2019, 4:47 AM

ok, i might give it a try. thanks.

and also you can use https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-fold-entity-row to show/hide

only problem is the current bug in raw editor... when is 0.85.1 due?

timid wigeon Jan 11, 2019, 4:54 AM

#

Use yaml to fix that

timid burrow Jan 11, 2019, 5:01 AM

#

i edited the .storage file anyway

#

@mild veldt do I need to put the fold-entity-row.js in the /local folder as well and then reference it in the resources?

mild veldt Jan 11, 2019, 5:08 AM

#

yes, it is a custom row

viral cove Jan 11, 2019, 5:18 AM

#

do custom cards only work in yaml mode? Every time I add my custom card resources in 84.6 in the raw config editor all of the items on the page with the custom card disappear when saved.

timid burrow Jan 11, 2019, 5:30 AM

#

it's a bug in 0.85

#

the editor does not like editing that folding row card but it seems like it works ok

timid wigeon Jan 11, 2019, 5:58 AM

#

Anyway I can load JSON data from an API call into a tab in Home Assistant?

mild veldt Jan 11, 2019, 6:19 AM

@timid wigeon there are rest sensors. Better question for #330944238910963714

In need of some styling advise 😉 Not sure how to go about with this
I can't get my cards to look right. The cards below wont go beyond the above. Is there a way to create multiple cells and merge somehow to get what I'm looking for?
Looks like this now https://imma.gr/77900x1f685
