then, under the one you want to change

tap_action:

action: toggle

cloud osprey Jan 25, 2019, 3:09 AM

#

does action toggle work for every type of entity. So Hue bulb, IR blaster, smart plugs etc?

devout onyx Jan 25, 2019, 3:10 AM

#

Should look like this: https://imgur.com/a/6mPcSEE

#

only if service supports it

#

I don't use hue

#

You can find out in services panel

#

oops sorry HassBot

devout onyx Jan 25, 2019, 3:12 AM

#

if not, you will have to do a service call...

cloud osprey Jan 25, 2019, 3:13 AM

#

so there is a light.toggle service. so do I use that?

devout onyx Jan 25, 2019, 3:14 AM

#

use the correct domain, light toggle only works if the entity id is light.blah.blah

#

toggle should work with anything that has a toggle though, so switch, fan, light etc.

cerulean scarab Jan 25, 2019, 3:19 AM

#

https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/qfnPdftTWm/

#

that works for my hue lights, and my mqtt lights

#

just normal toggle

hey guys i just updated to 0.86.1 (or at least tried to) - it hung after waiting 20 mins so i rebooted the vm

#

and now no pages loads

#

any ideas on this one?

Am trying Lovelace for the first time (beyodn the auto-generated stuff), I have this in my configuration.yaml : lovelace: mode: yaml and a ui-lovelace.yaml file in my config folder, yet I cannot seem to see anything in that file. Do I have to activate the drag and drop mode first or whatever? Sorry if this is a dumb question.

leaden vapor Jan 25, 2019, 3:45 AM

#

@icy patrol ssh into your instance and look at the home-assistant.log.

raven nacelle Jan 25, 2019, 3:45 AM

#

@latent moss if you are using yaml mode, you need to add stuff to that file.

leaden vapor Jan 25, 2019, 3:46 AM

#

So, after updating to .86...nothing looks different. Shouldn't there be some sort of change?

raven nacelle Jan 25, 2019, 3:46 AM

#

@leaden vapor the Auto generated view is very close to the groups you had

#

So you may not see the difference

latent moss Jan 25, 2019, 3:47 AM

#

@raven nacelle I worded it wrong, there is stuff in that file (example code from the docs), but when I go to the web browser I don't see the contents of that file there. It's showing my old states UI but auto-generated for lovelace.

raven nacelle Jan 25, 2019, 3:47 AM

#

What does your URL read?

latent moss Jan 25, 2019, 3:47 AM

#

http://hassio.local:8123/lovelace/

raven nacelle Jan 25, 2019, 3:48 AM

#

Did you restart your ha after adding the yaml mode?

leaden vapor Jan 25, 2019, 3:48 AM

#

Hamburger menu -> take control MUA HA HA HA HA!

#

Now let's see how I can screw things up. ;).

raven nacelle Jan 25, 2019, 3:48 AM

#

@latent moss my guess is that you are still using the storage mode

latent moss Jan 25, 2019, 3:48 AM

#

Yes I had it in my config for a while

#

Does "Take Control" mean yaml mode?

raven nacelle Jan 25, 2019, 3:49 AM

#

That won't work if you are using yaml mode

leaden vapor Jan 25, 2019, 3:49 AM

#

Well, it's gotten easier to configure... ... still have dreams of a drag and drop collection of doo dads.

latent moss Jan 25, 2019, 3:50 AM

#

Hm this is odd then

raven nacelle Jan 25, 2019, 3:50 AM

#

@leaden vapor those will come soon 😃

latent moss Jan 25, 2019, 3:51 AM

#

Maybe do I have to select the NeverMind option for Yaml mode to work? I have checked the 3 dot menu thing and saw the prompt that came up, but never made a choice on the screen there.

leaden vapor Jan 25, 2019, 3:51 AM

#

:). And a selector for icons. I can't remember all of that stuff. ...

raven nacelle Jan 25, 2019, 3:52 AM

#

what do you see when you click Configure UI from the three button menu?

latent moss Jan 25, 2019, 3:52 AM

#

https://i.imgur.com/JZG27jV.png

#

I've never made a choice on that screen yet, just always pressed Esc cause I was afraid of doing the wrong thing. I thought if I had the yaml mode it would bypass that stuff anyway.

raven nacelle Jan 25, 2019, 3:54 AM

#

ok, click take control and then youwill use the storage mode

#

that also means you are not using the yaml mode

latent moss Jan 25, 2019, 3:54 AM

#

Uh oh

#

I get an error, saving failed: not supported. https://i.imgur.com/V5P4qbn.png

#

after pressing take control

raven nacelle Jan 25, 2019, 3:56 AM

#

ok, that is the first time I am seeing this

#

ok...refresh the cache

#

and try again

#

CTRL+SHIFT+R

#

a few times

latent moss Jan 25, 2019, 3:58 AM

#

No luck still, i'll keep trying that though

raven nacelle Jan 25, 2019, 3:59 AM

#

are you on .86.1?

latent moss Jan 25, 2019, 3:59 AM

#

yes

raven nacelle Jan 25, 2019, 3:59 AM

#

restart HA and try again

latent moss Jan 25, 2019, 3:59 AM

#

you can see in this pic the progress bar on the take control button, then that error shows up top. https://i.imgur.com/Y6GGoQ5.png

#

ok

raven nacelle Jan 25, 2019, 4:00 AM

#

yeah, but that bug was fixed in .86.1

leaden vapor Jan 25, 2019, 4:00 AM

#

So how well does this interface work if you want a kiosk style interface on a tablet mounted on the wall?

latent moss Jan 25, 2019, 4:01 AM

#

im definitely on 86.1 according to the dev-info page

#

i went from 0.85.1 to 0.86.1 earlier today(skipped 0.86.0)

raven nacelle Jan 25, 2019, 4:01 AM

#

did you restart and try again

latent moss Jan 25, 2019, 4:02 AM

#

its restarting now

#

my Pi takes a few mins

raven nacelle Jan 25, 2019, 4:02 AM

#

sure

#

sorry, got to go....but, if that does not work, try the yaml mode again. I am not on Hassio, so not really sure what is messing up, but scroll up and a few others have talked about that error

latent moss Jan 25, 2019, 4:06 AM

#

Same error after reboot and many refreshes.

#

Thanks for your help I'll scroll up and see.

There's also an edit button, so you still have a chance to fix your message.

#

Anyway, your problem may be related to indentation. It's impossible to tell without propper formating, though, because discord mangles your spaces.

thanks thomas.

#

for the edit tip

polar kelp Jan 25, 2019, 8:05 AM

I think your first line is still not right, right?

#

Anyway. I was wrong. It's not indentation. It's a typo.

#

It should be tap_action.

Hi, have been running hassio for a few weeks, upgraded and switched over to lovelace yesterday. On my /lovelace/default_view I now have a bunch of red "not found" badges that I don't know how to get rid of, any suggestions?

weary karma Jan 25, 2019, 8:07 AM

#

@polar kelp thanks...... of all things I was looking at the "call-service" with the hyphen when I was writing this so thats where the error has crept in

#

hyphen in call-service vs underscore in tap_action

polar kelp Jan 25, 2019, 8:08 AM

#

Understandable. It's always _ left of the commas, but often - to the right

harsh fjord Jan 25, 2019, 8:08 AM

@marsh fractal are you running custom components?

Check HassBots message about formating above, and paste it like code

At least the first few lines

marsh fractal Jan 25, 2019, 8:13 AM

hi everyone! i've a question about the lovelance in 0.86.2: i prefer to use the automatic creation and recognize from configuration, without modify the interface with the customize graphic interface. I've the two history graph defined in the configuration.yaml, but in the interface i can not see it individually like the old interface. This is a bug? Without use the interface customizer, there is workarunds?

#

I hope I explained myself 😄

#

here the example of my group definitio in default_view

#

  view: yes
  name: Home
  icon: mdi:home-assistant
  entities:
    - group.living_room_group
    - group.bedroom_group
    - group.bathroom_group
    - group.guest_room_group
    - group.temperatures_group

can the tap_action call multiple services?

like have it TTS and make a popup?

With @polar kelp events you could btw https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-browser-commander

It makes a popup window. Abuses the more-info dialog.

gray quiver Jan 25, 2019, 10:52 AM

#

OMG guys great work!!

#

Love the new UI editor

#

soooo much better than editing groups and customise etc

#

few ideas/feedback

#

I take it some of the cards in the UI editor are still yet to be made WYSIWYG vs Code

#

when you click an entity - to beable to customise from there would be NEAT!

#

rather than via the configuration menu

polar kelp Jan 25, 2019, 10:56 AM

#

1: Correct
2: The time spent configuring vs the time spent using the interface should be vanishingly small. Adding configuration options to the interface would needlessly detrement the common user experience for little gain.

#

But feel free to post your suggestions to the forum to open up a discussion about the correct balance.

So stacks only and must be first card.

If I put this in an arbitrary stack is it going to suddenly get wider?

polar kelp Jan 25, 2019, 12:13 PM

#

yes

lone anvil Jan 25, 2019, 12:14 PM

#

does the stack type matter?

I tried horizontal and put it as the first card and it's still the same width.

Hi
Lovelace does not load any "module" resources (such as gauge-card.js) while "js" type resources (such as compact-custom-header.js) load correctly. In the browser console, I get the message "Failed to load for the module whose source is" http: // localhost: 8123 / local / custom-lovelace / gauge-card.js? V-0.1 "." and "uncaught exception: /local/custom-lovelace/gauge-card.js?v-0.1", nothing more. Tested with firefox and chrome. Home assistant (v.0.86.2) is installed under windows 10.
Can anyone help me ?

gauge card is build in, no need for custom

I’m using Lovelace via the storage option. Do we still need to have ui-lovelace.yaml in our config directory in order to correctly use the custom tracker card?

Only if you're using YAML mode

If there a way to force the order custom cards load?
I am not sure if others are seeing this, but I am having an issue where card-tools doesn't load before certain cards (vertical-stack-in-card, pop-up-card,), if I load my main page, I get "popup-card TypeError: card.setConfig is not a function" error for pop-up-card (and sometimes vertical-stack-in-card, but not all the time, wierd) , then I see "CARD-TOOLS IS INSTALLED".
But, if I load a page that loads card-tools first, then navigate to my main page (or any page where error happens), everything loads ok.

EDIT, now I am not exactly sure the order may even be the problem, as I just seen card-tools load first once, and I still seen the errors.
@polar kelp any idea what could be happenning? On 86.2, and all cards are up to date.

main meteor Jan 25, 2019, 4:22 PM

#

Using Entity card and "Secondary_info", would it be possible to initiate this value to "Never" instead of 0 minutes after last state change?

Since after restart of Hass all sensors becomes like 5 minutes since last change just becuse of a restart

var html = LitElement.prototype.html;

#

<paper-button noink raised onclick="this.handlePadClick('bbc1')" }>BBC1</paper-button> and <paper-button noink raised onclick="handlePadClick('bbc1')" }>BBC1</paper-button>

#

same results as the button is not part of the main div it's added in as part of the innerHTML

#

so the button isn't aware of the class

#

was hoping for some kind of magic binding but no luck

#

thinking about this maybe I could define the button as an extended HTMLElement

right I have to go thanks for info so far maybe next week I will have this sussed

@mild veldt ...no, looking to add an input_boolean

mild veldt Jan 25, 2019, 6:03 PM

@fiery sail not sure what you're after, but adding to the card, the answer is no. But perhaps building up your own generic climate is the answer https://www.home-assistant.io/components/climate.generic_thermostat/

fiery sail Jan 25, 2019, 6:05 PM

#

@mild veldt great idea...only I'm using the MQTT climate component....I may look into the vertical stack card? Just trying to come up to speed on Lovelace since .86 dropped....

mild veldt Jan 25, 2019, 6:08 PM

#

So what does the input_boolean do that isn't in the climate component?

fiery sail Jan 25, 2019, 6:17 PM

#

There is remote sensor for the thermostat that allows setpoint to be controlled by the intake or from the wall controller.

#

So I'm looking at the vertical stack card and I'm confused as to what's the necessary input for a proper config.

#

Can't see to find any clear documentation either....

#

I see ---> type: vertical-stack

#

But what's the next entry type? I've tried ----> card: thermostat, but it doesn't seem to like that.

Weblink is a row type of the entities card

@fathom tree there are extensions out there for Chrome that make the browser page borderless. And then if you have a view with a single card and utilize the custom-compact-header plugin, you should be golden

fathom tree Jan 25, 2019, 7:38 PM

#

I’m gonna try that. Thanks!

dim harness Jan 25, 2019, 7:40 PM

hey, when clicking on "Take control" in the configure panel I'm simply getting "Saving failed: Not supported"

@dim harness you on 0.86.0?

dim harness Jan 25, 2019, 7:41 PM

#

any ideas? google didn't help much

#

@mild veldt hmm. seems that I have a prerelease still: 0.86.0.dev0 says the about panel

mild veldt Jan 25, 2019, 7:41 PM

#

update to 0.86.2 to fix. then clear cache

dim harness Jan 25, 2019, 7:42 PM

#

browser's cache? I'll update to get current dev right now

mild veldt Jan 25, 2019, 7:42 PM

#

yes, browser

thorny verge Jan 25, 2019, 7:42 PM

#

@fathom tree Also, if you're just looking for ways to turn things on or off from desktop without having the browser window open, I use vbscripts to Invoke-WebRequest, then make a .vbs shortcut so cmd prompt doesn't flash, and then get pretty icons and create shortcuts on my Win10 taskbar. Works great. No feedback, but perfect for turning lights on or off quickly while working.

dim harness Jan 25, 2019, 7:43 PM

#

@mild veldt thanks, looks like rebasing on top of dev helped 👍

mild veldt Jan 25, 2019, 7:44 PM

@fathom tree that could be really slick with an always-on-top utility

thorny verge Jan 25, 2019, 7:48 PM

@fathom tree Hah, I am at work, but I can show you if you want, very easy really.

Awesome. Not right now (cuz I’m at work too) but maybe in a few hours?

Yep

#

Is it possible to use a core card within a custom card?

polar kelp Jan 25, 2019, 8:42 PM

#

Definitely

#

In all ways

lucid pumice Jan 25, 2019, 8:43 PM

#

guess you know the next q then 😃

#

any docs?

mild veldt Jan 25, 2019, 8:43 PM

#

@thorny verge check out compact-custom-header instead, should be able to do what you want...I htink

polar kelp Jan 25, 2019, 8:43 PM

#

https://developers.home-assistant.io/docs/en/lovelace_custom_card.html

mild veldt Jan 25, 2019, 8:43 PM

#

@lucid pumice lovelace-card-tools ftw

polar kelp Jan 25, 2019, 8:43 PM

#

So, not really, no.

lucid pumice Jan 25, 2019, 8:44 PM

#

ye, been over that one. any examples would do too

polar kelp Jan 25, 2019, 8:45 PM

#

So, your answer depends on what you mean.

#

If you want a custom card that extends a built-in card, that's class MyCard extends HuiGlanceCard for example.

lucid pumice Jan 25, 2019, 8:46 PM

#

I could remake them, but if I dont have to... I want to put multiple gauge in a card along with history graph

polar kelp Jan 25, 2019, 8:46 PM

#

If you want to put another card inside the html for your card it's a bit more involved, but as Ian said card-tools does all the heavy lifting for you...

mild veldt Jan 25, 2019, 8:46 PM

#

    const networthGraph = window.cardTools.createCard({
      type: "custom:mini-graph-card",
      entity: "sensor.pc_networth",
      hide: ["icon", "name", "state"],
      group: true,
    });
    networthGraph.hass = this.hass

#

with cardtools

#

then just put that inside your html

polar kelp Jan 25, 2019, 8:47 PM

#

For gauges, you'd probably want to just import the gauge, not the entire card. You can take a look at this: https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-color-picker That uses the internal color wheel.

#

And I'm sure you know this by heart already: https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant-polymer/blob/dev/src/panels/lovelace/cards/hui-gauge-card.ts

lucid pumice Jan 25, 2019, 8:49 PM

#

<ha-color-picker ...>

#

i guess a list of them would be good to have in the docs. will do some diging

polar kelp Jan 25, 2019, 8:49 PM

#

Hm... actually,it seems the gauge isn't quite such a neat package as I thought it would be...

@mild veldt I actually use compact-custom-header for kiosk mode, but hadn't seen the new features yet. I'll check it out.
Do you know if it can be used like home setter, where you can just set it per device, from the device, or do you have to use it programatically?

Hello... not sure this is the right place to ask, so let me know if I should ask somewhere else. I just upgraded to 0.86.2 and now my UI is completely blank in Chrome. If I load it with Safari it loads up fine, also seems to work fine in Chrome on my phone. Any ideas on why chrome wouldn't load the new lovelace UI? I should note that /states seems to load up just fine

Hi. if i want to make a card in lovelace that is a turn off all lights button, but only turn off what is on, and not turn on whats off. Is it a conditional card i should use or something else?

elder pendant Jan 25, 2019, 9:10 PM

#

calling homeassistant.turn_off on group.all_lights shouldn't turn them back on if they are off

mild veldt Jan 25, 2019, 9:10 PM

#

beat me 😃

elder pendant Jan 25, 2019, 9:10 PM

#

😃

#

Make sure you are calling turn_off and not toggle

vapid field Jan 25, 2019, 9:12 PM

#

thank you. Would conditional card be the prefered card for this?

elder pendant Jan 25, 2019, 9:12 PM

#

Shouldn't be necessary

winter hollow Jan 25, 2019, 9:13 PM

#

Use a button that calls a service

mild veldt Jan 25, 2019, 9:13 PM

#

unless you only want it to show when a light is on

vapid field Jan 25, 2019, 9:13 PM

no. want it to show all the time

First of all, no - when you're using the gui editor. (There's ongoing work to remove them from all documentation)

@low parcel sure you don't want picture-entity?

otherwise you need entities along with what thomas said

nevermiind, figured it out, gui editor has other markup, no indents needed anymore apparently

I think there might be a bug with weblinks still in Lovelace. I was simply trying to edit a card using the UI, to uncheck the header toggle button (which imo doesn't make sense, since there's not a single toggle switch in this card). But I get a weird error message, pic: https://i.imgur.com/1upuzDi.png Additionally all of my weblinks seem to appear on the "hass-unused-entities" screen, even though they are in use.

polar kelp Jan 25, 2019, 10:25 PM

#

Yeah... weblinks work totally differently from before. The ones in your configuration.yaml are pretty much ignored unless except in auto mode.

#

The error is because the entities GUI editor doesn't support the special row types yet.

latent moss Jan 25, 2019, 10:28 PM

#

Oh ok. I think the error message/screen there could be a little more newb-friendly though, I had no idea what that meant tbh.

#

Also I feel like this stuff could maybe still be in the UI editor part (ie a field and toggle):

title: Links
show_header_toggle: true

and then just have the YAML fallback mode underneath. Just a suggestion, not sure if there's technical reasons for it to be that way.

polar kelp Jan 25, 2019, 10:32 PM

#

Error messages are hard. There's one way things can be right, and infinite ways things can be wrong, but yes. We're getting there.

latent moss Jan 25, 2019, 10:35 PM

#

Yes first time using Lovelace for real and very impressed with it. Very simple to use for the most part, that error message was one of the few things that confused me a little bit.

That's not the latest version of layout-card.

Updated with tracker-card, and did a diffchecker compare.

#

v=297fcc

#

Not sure if it has anything to do with it, but tracker card was showing one of your cards as up to date (I think it was card-tools, but it was this morning,), I had to update it manually, but still doesn't work.

polar kelp Jan 25, 2019, 11:09 PM

#

Latest version of layout-card is fac69b5

#

Latest version of card-tools is 297fcc7

thorny verge Jan 25, 2019, 11:09 PM

#

Sorry, number I put was card-tools

polar kelp Jan 25, 2019, 11:10 PM

#

You're running layout-card version a97cc8 according to the log. That's an old one.

#

I just updated a few hours ago, so perhaps the custom-updater hasn't caught up yet.

thorny verge Jan 25, 2019, 11:12 PM

#

Yes, my ui-lovelace file shows v=a97cc8, but that must be the card I updated manually, as I just did a byte compare and they are the exact same.

sorry for my noobisch question: I just migrated to .86 and did some changes with the ui editor, is there anywhere a yaml file where thoses changes are added? I think i might switch to yaml editing...

and can I delete my groups include?

raven nacelle Jan 25, 2019, 11:17 PM

if you are not using the yaml mode, the default location is .storage

you can delete the groups that you are not using elsewhere....I have only two groups now

Question about "unused entities" -- using lovelace yaml mode on 0.85.1. I use the picture-elements card to show a bunch of entities on a floorplan image. Despite these entities being included on the picture-element card, they still show in unused entities. That supposed to happen?

whole heron Jan 25, 2019, 11:21 PM

#

hm so I can change to yaml mode and copy over the file from .storage?

raven nacelle Jan 25, 2019, 11:22 PM

yes, you can, although you may have to format them

whole heron Jan 25, 2019, 11:23 PM

@polar kelp I had card-tools defined at type: modules, not sure how or if it used to be a moduel and changed (couldn't find it in docs), but I just changed it to type: js and it works..

whole heron Jan 25, 2019, 11:25 PM

#

thanks @raven nacelle

#

so I have to go the hard way... and remove all the indenting

raven nacelle Jan 25, 2019, 11:26 PM

#

you should be able to use some json to yaml converter https://www.json2yaml.com/

whole heron Jan 25, 2019, 11:26 PM

#

cool

#

thanks again

#

everything changed in the yaml should be live without a restart right?

#

when using the yaml mode can I use the ui editor too?

desert delta Jan 25, 2019, 11:29 PM

#

is there a way to populate a entity list of all (frontend-)unused sensors? (just like the unsued entities page - but I cant copy things from there. also show source does not actually show the stuff)

edit: well at least with internet explorer its possible to select and copy the whole page.. at least something

thorny verge Jan 25, 2019, 11:31 PM

#

No.

desert delta Jan 25, 2019, 11:41 PM

i was surprised that i could copy my whole lovelace yaml to the ui editor at once and it just worked despite having some custom stuff in it.

thorny verge Jan 26, 2019, 12:02 AM

#

@polar kelp It seems all of your cards are not updating with custom updater, is there possibly an issue just at my end, or is there a problem with custom updater. If I update card to v1, it then updates and gets newest version, but doesn't show newest version. Not sure how custom updater works, is it a manual list of new version of custom cards, or is it automatic.

polar kelp Jan 26, 2019, 12:03 AM

#

Lots of people had that problem the last few days.

#

I don't really know how the custom updater works or how often it updates its lists, though.

#

It's supposed to be automatic for my cards.

mild veldt Jan 26, 2019, 12:08 AM

#

@whole heron open the raw config editor, copy the text, and paste into ui-lovelace.yaml if you want to use yaml mode

#

you cannot use the ui editor when in yaml mode

thorny verge Jan 26, 2019, 12:09 AM

#

@polar kelp Ok, I manually updated everything and seem to be working for most part.
One major issue I am seeing now, seems to be the order of how custom cards are loaded. None of my views work right now. Seems if card-tools doesn't load before certain cards (vertical-stack-in-card, pop-up-card,), if I load my main page, I get "popup-card TypeError: card.setConfig is not a function" error for pop-up-card (and sometimes vertical-stack-in-card, but not all the time, wierd) , then I see "CARD-TOOLS IS INSTALLED".
But, if I load a page that loads card-tools first, then navigate to my main page (or any page where error happens), everything loads ok.

whole heron Jan 26, 2019, 12:11 AM

#

@mild veldt thanks, just used the json2yaml converter and it worked

mild veldt Jan 26, 2019, 12:11 AM

#

@polar kelp @thorny verge it was last updated yesterday https://github.com/custom-cards/information/blob/master/repos.json

#

@thorny verge do you have the most recent popup-card?

thorny verge Jan 26, 2019, 12:12 AM

#

I do.

mild veldt Jan 26, 2019, 12:12 AM

#

you likely have things in the vertical-stack-in-card that require card-tools, as it itself does not

#

@thorny verge not according to custom-updater, but actual source?

thorny verge Jan 26, 2019, 12:13 AM

#

Yes, did a byte compare

mild veldt Jan 26, 2019, 12:13 AM

#

I had the same error, but thomas resolved it in an update today

#

cleared cache?

thorny verge Jan 26, 2019, 12:14 AM

#

Yes, and am trying everything incognito to be sure

mild veldt Jan 26, 2019, 12:14 AM

#

what's in your popup card?

thorny verge Jan 26, 2019, 12:26 AM

#

@mild veldt inside the popup card I have a vertical-stack-in card, problem seems to be tied to that card.
If I remove my popup card, I still see the errors, as I have a layout-card inside a vertical-stack-in-card, if I remove the layout-card, or vertical-stack-in-card as well it loads.
But, on a different view, it doesn't load because there is a different custom card (tiles-card, that I don't think needs card-tools) inside the vertical-stack-in-card. If I remove the vertical-stack-in-card, it loads.

polar kelp Jan 26, 2019, 12:34 AM

#

The vertical-stack-in-card is trying to create cards that hasn't been defined yet. It might help to put vertical-stack-in-card.js first in your list of resources.

#

No, wait.. last in the list

#

I'm going to bed now, but in the mean time, feel free to ping me with whatever you'd want to change about monster-card, and also if you have any good ideas for a more descriptive name for a replacement.

#

I already did actual regex support, so you won't need to say that...

mild veldt Jan 26, 2019, 12:37 AM

obviously the new name should be magic-card

I have a Fritz Netmonitor sensor activated which shows me some info like current downrate, uprate, etc. I wanted to add a history graph of these rates but I can't seem to use the internal variables of that sensor. Is that even possible or am I out of luck?

#

Like for example sensor.fritzbox is fine (shows online/oflfine state) but trying sensor.fritzbox.transmission_rate_down doesn't. Not sure if that's possible to do at all

split granite Jan 26, 2019, 10:47 AM

#

That's an attribute, so, not directly no

#

You'd want to pull that out with a template sensor, and graph that

trail bane Jan 26, 2019, 10:48 AM

#

Thanks! I'm going to try out template sensor then

#

I've created a template to test out and it works like a charm. Pretty easy to do. Thanks again!

almost there.. I specify the custom plugin using the raw editor option when editing the UI with this:

#

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

But on reopening the raw editor the entry is gone... somehow

I put the /lovelace-slider-entity-row/slider-entity-row.js inside the www folder inside the config folder

was wondering with the lovelace default will we still need group.yaml file?

winter hollow Jan 26, 2019, 1:13 PM

#

Not when in storage or yaml mode

#

And if your are not using them for other things like automations 😀

ya true

hushed acorn Jan 26, 2019, 1:19 PM

@winter hollow Thank you. That helped, but now it is so large that I have to vertically scroll to see the entire Node-Red window. Is there a way to restrict the vertical size?

#

@winter hollow Never mind. I actually like it this way.

Hello all
I am thinking about updating HA to 0.86. Do I need to migrate something to get the lovelace ui? I have a rather large "Group" setup for all cards/groups in the old UI. Are they automatically taken over?

split granite Jan 26, 2019, 1:26 PM

#

You don't need to do anything - see the various blog posts

wary tendon Jan 26, 2019, 1:27 PM

#

Where is the lovelace "config" saved if I don't use the yaml mode?

split granite Jan 26, 2019, 1:29 PM

#

It'll be stored in .storage/lovelace

wary tendon Jan 26, 2019, 1:29 PM

#

Is it pretty much the same as when using yaml? So could I just copy it out and switch to yaml mode?

split granite Jan 26, 2019, 1:30 PM

#

I think storage uses JSON - you can convert that to YAML easily enough though, but it's not a case of copying the file as is

wary tendon Jan 26, 2019, 1:31 PM

#

okay thanks.

mental crystal Jan 26, 2019, 1:34 PM

#

So what would be the appropriate way to redesign my UI as it was with 0.85? Now that Im running 0.86.2...?

#

Just to get to the same place I was, and then slowly shift into the new possibilities lovelace has to offer

split granite Jan 26, 2019, 1:34 PM

#

The auto-generated UI will be "vaguely close"

#

Start from there, and all the stock (and custom) cards, and work out what you want to do

mental crystal Jan 26, 2019, 1:36 PM

#

Its vaguely similar :P
That is, I have three sections in my main tab - few sensors, few scenes and media players, and on top 20+ sensors. and thats it. nothing even similar to what I used to had

I've not really used the auto-generated view in Lovelace myself, I've always customised it

wary tendon Jan 26, 2019, 1:40 PM

#

Just migrated myself, except for the history graphs, everything looks pretty much as before

#

and the thermostat

winter hollow Jan 26, 2019, 1:42 PM

#

@mental crystal are you sure your groups are loaded? With the slugify breaking change groups often dont load in 0.86

#

Check your groups for entities with double _ or starting or ending with _

mental crystal Jan 26, 2019, 1:44 PM

#

wdym, i dont have '_' prefix/suffix. what exactly else can i do?

winter hollow Jan 26, 2019, 1:44 PM

#

@split granite the best way to switch back and forth yaml and UI is the raw config editor

#

Are your groups loaded? Or is the states UI the same as it was before?

mental crystal Jan 26, 2019, 1:45 PM

#

I still have my groups defined as part of the many different yamls (packages) I have

#

If I go to settings, general, and validate, I get an error. Below, where the "reload" buttons are, there is only the ability to reload core

winter hollow Jan 26, 2019, 1:46 PM

#

Having them defined is not the same as loaded

mental crystal Jan 26, 2019, 1:46 PM

#

I can try and restart the entire process, would it by any chance make a differnece?

winter hollow Jan 26, 2019, 1:46 PM

#

Well fix those errors and your Lovelace should be better

mental crystal Jan 26, 2019, 1:47 PM

#

But how would I know what to fix, if on the previous version it was defined good enough / with no errors? I mean, how do I know what to look at if for all I know, they are all properly defined?

winter hollow Jan 26, 2019, 1:48 PM

#

Check your logs, the console, and like I said, your groups.

#

And the breaking changes, this is in there.

wary tendon Jan 26, 2019, 1:55 PM

#

is the history_graph component now also obsolete with lovelace?

split granite Jan 26, 2019, 1:57 PM

Effectively, yes IMO

Hi. i hope someone can help me out. I have added a picture element card in lovelace with an image from 300x800 pixels. But HA is showing the picture almost double the size. I am using version 0.86.1. What can i do to display the pictre in the real size?

split granite Jan 26, 2019, 2:01 PM

#

You can't really. Lovelace doesn't allow you to set a fixed size

inland swallow Jan 26, 2019, 2:02 PM

#

but why is it so big, the image is not getting smaller when i make my browser window smaller

#

It is for a floorplan, and when i watch other floorplans all the pictures are nicely shown in the browser, my picure has also correct sizes but it is rescaled so it does not fit in my screen anymore

I don't know if it was called that possible. I mean that when you clicked a history graph in home assistant, it popped up and displayed a much bigger graph.

Hi, I've seen the demo LoveLace here https://demo.home-assistant.io/ and like the look of the floorplan cards. Does anyone know what software was used to create the floorplan images?

There are a few paid options (Room Skecher, Room Scan, Smartdraw)

raven nacelle Jan 26, 2019, 3:37 PM

Luckily for me, I got it from my builders website

#

so, no effort required

#

Most builders use third-party providers to render these floorplans. If you have a newer house and you know the name of your floorplan, you should be able to find it online

@trail bane use a template sensor to round values

you cannot do it in Lovelace

how are they responding to the states?

Need to get HA floor plan devs to work on and perfect picture elements

winter hollow Jan 26, 2019, 4:13 PM

#

no this was before lovelace

raven nacelle Jan 26, 2019, 4:14 PM

#

small animations in picture-elements would go a long way

winter hollow Jan 26, 2019, 4:14 PM

#

I would want to create something in Lovelace where you could do this

raven nacelle Jan 26, 2019, 4:15 PM

#

yeah, I also want to stick to LL and hope that some elements will become available now that feature freeze is over

mild veldt Jan 26, 2019, 4:16 PM

#

Feature freeze is not over yet

winter hollow Jan 26, 2019, 4:16 PM

#

when feature freeze is over, you will see all the shit Ian made

#

😛

mild veldt Jan 26, 2019, 4:17 PM

#

gulp

winter hollow Jan 26, 2019, 4:18 PM

#

you do have some cool things on the shelve right?

mild veldt Jan 26, 2019, 4:18 PM

#

Need to finish our UI editors and bug fixes first

#

I have some potentially cool things

#

@split granite 😦

split granite Jan 26, 2019, 4:19 PM

#

What?

#

He said you were making some 💩 😛

mild veldt Jan 26, 2019, 4:20 PM

#

🤣

split granite Jan 26, 2019, 4:20 PM

#

On a serious note though, you've all been doing some pretty awesome stuff, speaking as somebody who's viewed the UI as the least important thing in HA...

#

That view may be drifting a little now ... 😉

mild veldt Jan 26, 2019, 4:22 PM

#

We did it guys! That’s a wrap! 🎉

winter hollow Jan 26, 2019, 4:22 PM

#

Haha great to hear Tinker

split granite Jan 26, 2019, 4:23 PM

#

Well, the old UI was "fugly" (functional, but ugly). This now though... now it's a thing I can see being useful on wall mounted tablets and the like

mild veldt Jan 26, 2019, 4:27 PM

#

People putting in lots of effort into these custom cards is what is huge to me. Thing like the mini-media-player and upcoming-media-card just look so damn good

winter hollow Jan 26, 2019, 4:27 PM

#

Those guys should join the frontend team

mild veldt Jan 26, 2019, 4:28 PM

#

I keep trying 😃

split granite Jan 26, 2019, 4:28 PM

#

Many of these folks will be ones who're out to scratch an itch, and have no long term interest

mild veldt Jan 26, 2019, 4:28 PM

#

Most don’t want to give up the freedom of options they can add to their cards

#

Which I get. Core is a bit more rigid/simple

#

But beyond just porting cards we could use smart devs to help shoring up the front end overall

split granite Jan 26, 2019, 4:34 PM

#

Yup, there's lots of little - long standing - pain points that could do with some love and attention

dreamy tendon Jan 26, 2019, 5:09 PM

#

the upcoming-media-card is pretty cool for sure but the Kodi integration has a little problem that Kodi needs to be on when Hass launches or it doesn't load the sensors 😦

mild veldt Jan 26, 2019, 5:16 PM

#

That has nothing to do with the card

dreamy tendon Jan 26, 2019, 5:18 PM

#

I know

mild veldt Jan 26, 2019, 5:20 PM

#

And that's the nature of HA. Components are attempted to setup on boot. Failed ones are not reattempted

honest elbow Jan 26, 2019, 5:56 PM

#

@split granite Thanks.

split granite Jan 26, 2019, 5:56 PM

#

@honest elbow Sure, delete .storage/lovelace

honest elbow Jan 26, 2019, 5:56 PM

#

thank you.

mossy otter Jan 26, 2019, 6:28 PM

#

is there a way to manipulate lovelace to make certain cards bigger?

#

trying to make an embedded video bigger

split granite Jan 26, 2019, 6:29 PM

#

Use the panel setting in the view

mossy otter Jan 26, 2019, 6:30 PM

#

would that stretch all the cards on that view?

#

ignore that...just read it

#

🙄

#

This renders the first card on full width, other cards in this view will not be rendered

split granite Jan 26, 2019, 6:31 PM

#

You can of course use the horizontal or vertical stack cards to work around that 😉

mossy otter Jan 26, 2019, 6:31 PM

#

has it always been this way? i was sure before it used to render everything else full width?

split granite Jan 26, 2019, 6:32 PM

#

Nope, always been like this

mild veldt Jan 26, 2019, 6:36 PM

#

@mossy otter how are you changing out the videos?

mossy otter Jan 26, 2019, 6:38 PM

#

The idea is to use use an input_select and conditional cards

deep quartz Jan 26, 2019, 6:45 PM

#

High there.. after upgrading to 86.2 all my zwave devices are only showing as Ready and I can't switch them. I fixed the zwave entity names, but cant' figure out what is wrong in the config.. anyone know where to point me.

#

sample
entities:

entity: zwave.zooz_zen21_zwave_toggle_switch
show_header_toggle: false
title: Office
type: entities

split granite Jan 26, 2019, 6:46 PM

#

That's not a switch., so you can't switch it

deep quartz Jan 26, 2019, 6:47 PM

#

but it is a switch on my light... they used to be switch....... but had to change to the entity zwave.....

#

I suspect that might be some of the issue, but how do I fix this...

#

I have quite a few zooz device.. dimmers and switches

split granite Jan 26, 2019, 6:47 PM

#

You fix it by not randomly changing things to zwave. 😉

deep quartz Jan 26, 2019, 6:48 PM

#

I honestly didn't do it randomly.. seems they are now that in the entity listing...

potent fjord Jan 26, 2019, 6:48 PM

#

Does 86.1 still have That typo That prevents some cards working?

split granite Jan 26, 2019, 6:48 PM

#

For any Z-Wave device, there's a zwave. entity that represents the Z-Wave node itself. Then there's the switch. entity for the switch

deep quartz Jan 26, 2019, 6:48 PM

#

I only did that in the UI so it was found...

split granite Jan 26, 2019, 6:48 PM

#

So, look in states and check what the actual entity_id is

deep quartz Jan 26, 2019, 6:48 PM

#

ah.. ok.. will look for the switch one then.. I didn't see it in the list..

#

ok.. will check there..thank you

#

hmmmm.. no switches showing...

#

I maybe have a problem in my configuration.yaml or something...

split granite Jan 26, 2019, 6:49 PM

#

It might no longer be switch.zooz_zen21_zwave_toggle_switch

#

0.86 brought some changes that changed a few things up

deep quartz Jan 26, 2019, 6:50 PM

#

it used to be _level_switch and I had to edit...

split granite Jan 26, 2019, 6:50 PM

#

Try turning the switch on/off locally

deep quartz Jan 26, 2019, 6:50 PM

#

ok.. I may not have toggled any since my upgrade shortly ago

#

My few other wifi plugs and switches are gone as well... trying to sort it.. thanks

#

mostly zwave so started there.. cheers

mild veldt Jan 26, 2019, 6:54 PM

#

@mossy otter makes me want to make a dynamic iframe card that could integrate with @polar kelp browser-commander and you could just send a message to like a telegram bot with the new url or something and have it updated

potent fjord Jan 26, 2019, 7:05 PM

#

Cant get compact-custom-header To work.. It used To work but after update no longer works..

#

Unexpected token <

vapid lance Jan 26, 2019, 7:06 PM

potent fjord Jan 26, 2019, 7:06 PM

#

Can these cards be updated with wget?

raven nacelle Jan 26, 2019, 7:06 PM

#

yes, you can use wget to get the udpated raw file

vapid lance Jan 26, 2019, 7:07 PM

#

Is there any documentation describing the fact that "localstorage:defaultPage" is not working anymore ? (it seems to loop on loading lovelace when set)

potent fjord Jan 26, 2019, 7:07 PM

#

Raw file? I just copy file link from github and wget it, is it wrong way?

split granite Jan 26, 2019, 7:08 PM

#

Only if you're using the link to the raw file

raven nacelle Jan 26, 2019, 7:08 PM

#

@potent fjord I use curl

split granite Jan 26, 2019, 7:08 PM

#

Otherwise you get HTML

raven nacelle Jan 26, 2019, 7:08 PM

#

something like curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kdschlosser/samsungctl/master/samsungctl/application.py -o application.py

mossy otter Jan 26, 2019, 7:09 PM

#

is it possible to use badges to turn on/off lights? (edit: just by tapping on it)

potent fjord Jan 26, 2019, 7:09 PM

#

Ah ok, seems That i have www content lol

raven nacelle Jan 26, 2019, 7:10 PM

#

no....badges are just for information @mossy otter

mossy otter Jan 26, 2019, 7:11 PM

how to disable yaml mode after activating it?

mossy otter Jan 26, 2019, 7:17 PM

#

is there a "default" card size...trying to make these (https://imgur.com/a/s2ZaEna) go in line with eachother but figure i need to resize the local image to be the same as the light toggle

sharp pulsar Jan 26, 2019, 7:18 PM

#

nvm figured it out

split granite Jan 26, 2019, 7:18 PM

#

@sharp pulsar https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/yaml-mode/ - basically comment out those two lines

sharp pulsar Jan 26, 2019, 7:19 PM

#

i did and it didn't work, even restarted home assistant, had to go into lovelace top right and refresh

winter hollow Jan 26, 2019, 7:20 PM

#

@vapid lance no, it should only contain states or lovelace, no paths other than panels

recommendations for a sonos icon?

mild veldt Jan 26, 2019, 7:34 PM

#

mdi:speaker?

old whale Jan 26, 2019, 7:35 PM

#

ehhh

#

i have a ton of media players so its nice to be able to quickly look for the sonos icon

mild veldt Jan 26, 2019, 7:36 PM

#

well there isn't one...so

old whale Jan 26, 2019, 7:36 PM

#

ya 😦

#

other question: https://community-home-assistant-assets.s3.dualstack.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/original/3X/3/f/3f34c76a6c83c3dbee8549f6fd624e06124be413.png is there something like that for lights?

mild veldt Jan 26, 2019, 7:37 PM

#

alpha-s-circle-outline

#

no, i don't think there is anything like that for fans in LL yet either. But I don't have smart fans so haven't probably paid attention

#

that's a custom ui one, right?

old whale Jan 26, 2019, 7:38 PM

#

https://community.home-assistant.io/t/lovelace-state-card-example/68318/4

#

yeah

#

i could probably make my own for lights, he provided a code snippet

mild veldt Jan 26, 2019, 7:40 PM

#

eck, I always hate those threads of ever changing attempts at coding a solution...

#

please put it in a repo if you do

#

so it can evolve fluidly

high canyon Jan 26, 2019, 7:42 PM

#

I seem to remeber hearing about a lovelace plugin to show cards/pages to only specific users, but I am not sure what to search for to find it again

old whale Jan 26, 2019, 7:42 PM

#

honestly i would just love to have a quick-to-use button to select hue scenes, such as white/yellow, low,med, and high brightness on a lovelace card

#

currently there is a slider but it's just slower compared to tapping a button. Sure, it sounds pathetic but when it comes to sliding it down to the middle each day it becomes tiresome.

what floor plan is that?

hollow frigate Jan 26, 2019, 7:52 PM

#

how do I get a custom component from github in my Hass?

split granite Jan 26, 2019, 7:53 PM

#

Custom components aren't to do with Lovelace, so I'd ask in #330944238910963714

hollow frigate Jan 26, 2019, 7:53 PM

#

sorry

mild veldt Jan 26, 2019, 7:56 PM

#

@old whale you can view the configuration

old whale Jan 26, 2019, 7:56 PM

#

typically said custom component plugin has the instructions on github. ask #330944238910963714 like tinkerer said 😃

mild veldt Jan 26, 2019, 7:56 PM

#

everything in the demo is editable

old whale Jan 26, 2019, 7:56 PM

#

oh?

#

and it stays that way?

mild veldt Jan 26, 2019, 7:57 PM

#

until you refresh

mental crystal Jan 26, 2019, 7:57 PM

#

so with lovelace, where is the UI actually saved? Under what yaml file?
Im new to this, and I want to understand how I can quickly move around groups and definitions I had related to UI, from the old web view to the new one

split granite Jan 26, 2019, 7:57 PM

#

.storage/lovelace if you're not using YAML mode

mild veldt Jan 26, 2019, 7:57 PM

#

@mental crystal if you're the UI editors it is stored in .storage

#

and you shouldn't touch it

mental crystal Jan 26, 2019, 7:58 PM

#

so I should configure everything related to the UI.. solely from the UI?

mild veldt Jan 26, 2019, 7:58 PM

#

or use yaml mode

mental crystal Jan 26, 2019, 7:58 PM

#

from the ui as ewll

mild veldt Jan 26, 2019, 7:58 PM

#

and then you get no ui editors

#

pick your poison

mental crystal Jan 26, 2019, 7:58 PM

#

What's yaml mode?

split granite Jan 26, 2019, 7:58 PM

#

YAML mode == ui-lovelace.yaml and full control
GUI mode == editor, and leave it the heck alone

#

https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/yaml-mode/ @mental crystal

#

In the docs 😉

mental crystal Jan 26, 2019, 7:59 PM

#

sorry :X

#

Which is better? 😃

mild veldt Jan 26, 2019, 7:59 PM

#

auto mode == i don't care, let's get crazy

split granite Jan 26, 2019, 7:59 PM

#

None are better

#

All are different

mental crystal Jan 26, 2019, 7:59 PM

#

But in terms of functionallity or ease of use?

mild veldt Jan 26, 2019, 7:59 PM

#

@mental crystal subjective question. as a dev who wrote many of the ui editors, of course ui is better 😉

split granite Jan 26, 2019, 7:59 PM

#

Functionality - all the same

#

Easy of use - depends on you 😉

#

Start with the UI editor, see if it works for you

sacred fog Jan 26, 2019, 8:00 PM

#

Cant seem to find any way to set the column width for a vertical-stack, any ideas?

mental crystal Jan 26, 2019, 8:00 PM

#

Haha, the begining of your sentence (as a dev) should yeild - yaml 😃 @mild veldt

split granite Jan 26, 2019, 8:00 PM

#

If it doesn't, you can switch

mild veldt Jan 26, 2019, 8:00 PM

#

in storage mode, changes are seen immediately

#

where as yaml mode require a refresh

mental crystal Jan 26, 2019, 8:00 PM

#

only refresh, no longer restart?

mild veldt Jan 26, 2019, 8:00 PM

#

lovelace requires no restarts for changes

mental crystal Jan 26, 2019, 8:01 PM

#

I need to rebuild my entire configuration from scratch so I wonder what would the better direction 😃

elder pendant Jan 26, 2019, 8:01 PM

#

You can do raw edits in UI mode anyway, I dont see much of a benefit to yaml at this point

split granite Jan 26, 2019, 8:01 PM

#

Even in YAML mode 😉
