thanks for helping

@polar kelp did not chance version number, still 0.1.0. but where can i see the version number of the dev branch file?

jolly goblet Feb 4, 2019, 6:32 PM

#

Good morning - This is my first time using this chat. Since the upgrade where Lovelace is now the default I'm a little confused. Before I had installed a plugin that auto created the Lovelace config file. Since the upgrade, I started getting errors that some entitiy_id have two __ I deleted the Lovelace UI file that was created by the plugin hoping with the new version of HASSIO it would create a new one. It didn't yet the UI is still there? What do I need to do to have it regenerated. I'm also confused because some of what I've read said Lovelace can be configured in the gui?

polar kelp Feb 4, 2019, 6:33 PM

#

@vapid field doesn’t matter. As described in the link, what you put in there just has to be different from before.

vapid field Feb 4, 2019, 6:34 PM

#

Hello guys! Does anyone of you use custom:mini-graph-card card for lovelace from kalkih?

#

it worked changing to 0.1.1. that dosn't make much sense to my, but hay its working. thank you

#

I just noticed that when I hover over the dots the time frame it shows is actually reverted... or it grows from right to left even if the graph is correct

#

so the first dot on the far right side is correct but going to the left the times are growing instead for going down

mild veldt Feb 4, 2019, 6:38 PM

#

@vapid field there's already an issue ticket for it

vapid field Feb 4, 2019, 6:39 PM

#

@mild veldt can you point it to me... I will follow there

mild veldt Feb 4, 2019, 6:40 PM

#

...it's in the repo where you originally go the card

vapid field Feb 4, 2019, 6:41 PM

#

great... I will check. Thanks

#

It's actually right now fixed! 😃

jolly goblet Feb 4, 2019, 6:43 PM

#

Is this not the forum to get assistance?

mild veldt Feb 4, 2019, 6:50 PM

#

@jolly goblet delete ./stroage/lovelace and restart OR in the top right menu select "take control" and then you can edit it through the UI

elder pendant Feb 4, 2019, 7:12 PM

#

".stroage" uh oh

jolly goblet Feb 4, 2019, 7:32 PM

#

So another question. Lovelace added a new card for my security system. It has a Arm Away, Arm Home and a passcode. It doesn't do anything. Why??

jolly goblet Feb 4, 2019, 7:52 PM

#

The old interface worked fine.

#

I've tried removing and recreating using gui - Still doesn not do anything.

#

The status does update. It just will not arm or disarm. I have an ELK MK1.

Hi, Is it possible to with Lovelace to display only the light ON with a wildcard so I don't need to always go in the config if I add an extra light?

#

*lights

#

I have try the following:
type: entity-filter
entities:

entity: light.*
state_filter:
'on'

prime umbra Feb 4, 2019, 8:58 PM

#

@hoary jungle sure with a custom monster card

#

https://github.com/ciotlosm/custom-lovelace/tree/master/monster-card

#

- type: custom:monster-card
  show_empty: false
  card:
    type: entities
    title: Lights On
  filter:
    include:
      - domain: light
        state: 'on'

#

you set domain

hoary jungle Feb 4, 2019, 9:00 PM

#

@prime umbra Thanks Solid, I just try to install monster-card as mention but for some reason lovelace doesn't recognize it

#

I have create www in config and copy the JS file. I have reboot as mention. Add the Ressources to the lovelace config

#

When I try to create a monster-card identical at your example, I have the following error:
YAML Error: TypeError: Cannot read property 'startsWith' of undefined

prime umbra Feb 4, 2019, 9:02 PM

#

are you using yaml mode or ui mode

hoary jungle Feb 4, 2019, 9:02 PM

#

I'm running latest HASSIO version 86.4

#

ui

prime umbra Feb 4, 2019, 9:02 PM

#

so you have to include resourses in raw config

hoary jungle Feb 4, 2019, 9:03 PM

#

yes that is done

prime umbra Feb 4, 2019, 9:04 PM

#

how did you put card code

hoary jungle Feb 4, 2019, 9:04 PM

#

I used the skip button

#

Select all and paste (even manually) the code you mention

prime umbra Feb 4, 2019, 9:05 PM

#

show code how you put

#

did you put it correctly?

#

indentation

hoary jungle Feb 4, 2019, 9:06 PM

#

in Raw editor config:
resources:

url: /local/monster-card.js?v=2
type: js

prime umbra Feb 4, 2019, 9:06 PM

#

~format

kind shellBOT Feb 4, 2019, 9:06 PM

#

To format your text as code, enter three backticks on the first line, press Enter for a new line, paste your code, press Enter again for another new line, and lastly three more backticks. Here's an example:

Today I took my Lovelace plunge 😃 However I miss some parts that were in my groups.yaml file. Is it possible to re-trigger the creation of the automatic Lovelace config?

hoary jungle Feb 4, 2019, 9:12 PM

#

@prime umbra Spoke to fast. It work I can see status ON but also all the "Uknown" state. Is it possible to only show ON state?

prime umbra Feb 4, 2019, 9:12 PM

#

if you mess with groups page i see no need to create lovelace config again

vapid field Feb 4, 2019, 9:13 PM

#

I meant with the views in the groups file.

prime umbra Feb 4, 2019, 9:15 PM

#

@hoary jungle if you see other exemples you can maybe use the exclude:

hoary jungle Feb 4, 2019, 9:15 PM

#

work thanks. I though it was only selecting ON

prime umbra Feb 4, 2019, 9:15 PM

#

@vapid field are you using ui mode?

vapid field Feb 4, 2019, 9:25 PM

#

Yes, I am.

#

Apparently I did the 'preview lovelace' before, and made some changes to the groups / view file. These new groups are not shown in Lovelace atm.

patent jewel Feb 4, 2019, 9:37 PM

#

hello, been looking around the community discussions, also on the raw config of the demo site (first one - ARS Home) without success - is there a way to have the Thermostat card display the three dots for more info (in my HA they do not show up)?

prime umbra Feb 4, 2019, 9:57 PM

#

@vapid field so if you using ui mode , create the new views in UI mode that you need, that should be done in no time 😃

random mantle Feb 4, 2019, 10:00 PM

#

can someone please post the first lines of what they see in the raw editor of the lovelace config 😛

sharp talon Feb 4, 2019, 10:05 PM

#

Hi @polar kelp whats wrong with this picture? I've installed card-tools and the layout-card but still getting the same. https://imgur.com/wGqeXxZ

polar kelp Feb 4, 2019, 10:07 PM

#

Why are you configuring a card as if it was a view?

sharp talon Feb 4, 2019, 10:08 PM

#

erm... enlighten me.

#

I was using the sample code from layout-card

sleek warren Feb 4, 2019, 10:25 PM

#

sorry i asked the question yesterday but i will ask again 😃 any plans for persistent notifications as a card in lovelace?

sharp talon Feb 4, 2019, 10:26 PM

#

@polar kelp Ah worked it out. Sorry I was taking the layout example literally.

    panel: true
    cards:```
related to the view not the card.

sleek warren Feb 4, 2019, 10:33 PM

#

i will branch and add the code for persistent notifications its only python 😃

elder pendant Feb 4, 2019, 10:39 PM

#

lovelace is JS

sleek warren Feb 4, 2019, 11:31 PM

#

wow a response 😃 i know it is but thanks anyway

loud thistle Feb 5, 2019, 12:02 AM

#

Hm, went back to a snapshot to check if I fucked up stuff or my CC2530 is dead and now all my lights are unused entities (but they works and are active). How to fix that?

mild veldt Feb 5, 2019, 12:03 AM

#

@sleek warren use the monster-card on the persistent_notification domain

polar kelp Feb 5, 2019, 12:04 AM

#

@sharp talon The readme was written before the gui editor existed, so starting from the view made more sense. I'll probably rewrite most of my readmes in time...

mild veldt Feb 5, 2019, 12:04 AM

#

@sleek warren or try @polar kelp new card which I can’t remember off the top of my head

polar kelp Feb 5, 2019, 12:05 AM

#

auto-entities

mild veldt Feb 5, 2019, 12:05 AM

#

☝️

polar kelp Feb 5, 2019, 12:06 AM

#

There's no plans for persistent notifications as a card, that I know of - because then notifications would change your carefully crafted layout. That's why they're behind the bell icon now.

#

Woah! Is that the time? Damned Myst games...

#

Good night!

wary quest Feb 5, 2019, 12:34 AM

anyone have examples or screen shots on what card-modder looks like? I getting an error
Uncaught (in promise) DOMException: Failed to execute 'define' on 'CustomElementRegistry': this name has already been used with this registry

mild veldt Feb 5, 2019, 12:34 AM

#

@wary quest card-modder doesn't look like anything. It is to be used on another card

wary quest Feb 5, 2019, 12:35 AM

#

so the options and stuff is all entered through code?

mild veldt Feb 5, 2019, 12:38 AM

#

What are you trying to accomplish?

wary quest Feb 5, 2019, 12:46 AM

#

trying to get it to work

#

I do not get any custom backgrounds I think its because of the error above. When I remove the card-modder and restart I dont get error

mild veldt Feb 5, 2019, 1:37 AM

#

Did you include a resource twice?

jolly goblet Feb 5, 2019, 1:56 AM

mild veldt Feb 5, 2019, 2:06 AM

#

@jolly goblet try putting it in an entities card

jolly goblet Feb 5, 2019, 2:23 AM

#

Yes it works fine there

#

So why?

jolly goblet Feb 5, 2019, 2:41 AM

#

How do you move cards up in the interface? When I use the arrows it just moves them to the another column.

mortal cape Feb 5, 2019, 2:43 AM

#

@jolly goblet it's also a matter of moving cards that you want to be under or after other cards...think of it like one long chain of cards.

jolly goblet Feb 5, 2019, 2:43 AM

#

Hmm I tried that and it seemed to stop moving.

mortal cape Feb 5, 2019, 2:45 AM

#

https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-card-modder/blob/master/README.md#forcing-size a better explanation

jolly goblet Feb 5, 2019, 2:47 AM

#

Thanks why is this documentation not on Home Assistance website under Lovelace. I feel like they release new things without updating there own documentation?

#

As an example - I dont see in there documentation how to edit the Lovelance GUI using the GUI.... Someone had to tell me lol

#

I am really liking the gui

eager pollen Feb 5, 2019, 2:50 AM

#

Where does lovelace log errors?

#

My chrome dev console is auto-clearing errors for some odd reason and my hass log is empty

#

Figured out a workaround.. forcing chrome to maintain the log 😃

daring night Feb 5, 2019, 3:05 AM

#

this maybe a silly question but how do you (can you) use custom lovelace cards with using lovelace in default mode (ie no longer using ui-lovelace.yaml file)?? from what I've been reading online, cards speak about editing ui-lovelace.yaml to include the resources etc but...I'm not using ui-lovelace.yaml that I'm aware of in the default HA mode so not sure how to reference a custom card via the standard new lovelace UI?? thanks and sorry is this is a silly question 😃

eager pollen Feb 5, 2019, 3:07 AM

#

@daring night When you go into the editor, I've had luck switch to Raw Config Mode and then doing the same work that I did in the ui-lovelace.yaml

daring night Feb 5, 2019, 3:18 AM

#

@eager pollen got it - thanks, I had to place the resources in using RAW Editor etc, create a custom card in RAW Editor, thereafter I can see/edit it in normal UI - THANK YOU Sir!

eager pollen Feb 5, 2019, 3:24 AM

#

No problem!

weary karma Feb 5, 2019, 6:19 AM

hello guys. Gong Xi Fa cai from south east asia (happy new year)

#

does anyone know how to disable the touch animation in lovelace?

#

and disable the toasts

idle gate Feb 5, 2019, 6:32 AM

#

hi there. where can I find the file that keeps track of the current state of the lovelace UI?

#

I'd like to edit it directly with a text editor.

#

Put differently, why don't I see a ui-lovelace.yaml file anywhere?

#

sudo find / -name ui-lovelace.yaml -print yields nothing

latent moss Feb 5, 2019, 7:10 AM

#

@idle gate the ui-lovelace.yaml file is not created by default, you would have to manually create that and then also specify yaml mode in your config. In top right corner (3 dots) you go to configure ui -> raw config editor then copy and paste entire contents of that into a ui-lovelace.yaml file.

polar kelp Feb 5, 2019, 7:11 AM

#

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

idle gate Feb 5, 2019, 7:15 AM

#

Thank you. I thought when I pressed "Config UI" it'd get created somewhere in the filesystem. I now see how it works, thanks!

#

On a related topic, having specified my own ui-lovelace.yaml file now, did I give up the ability to have new sensors automatically appear in the UI as badges?

elder pendant Feb 5, 2019, 7:19 AM

#

By default yes, you have given up that ability. With great power comes great responsibility

idle gate Feb 5, 2019, 7:25 AM

#

Ok, thanks.

#

Is there a way to organize the badges? Can I group them into horizontal-stacks?

eager pollen Feb 5, 2019, 7:28 AM

#

@polar kelp Can you leave resources defined in ui-lovelace.yaml but have everything else in the Online Raw Config? Not sure if my environment is bugging out or if this is allowed

polar kelp Feb 5, 2019, 7:28 AM

#

No, you can't.

eager pollen Feb 5, 2019, 7:29 AM

#

Interesting, I got a bunch of errors about chrome duplicate resource loads, but then I removed the resources in the online config and kept them in ui-lovelace and no console errors

#

I'm gonna restart HA to see if it'll crash now.. maybe it's cached

#

@polar kelp For some weird reason I can, it's not cached since I ran in incognito mode

#

and I'm not using yaml move

#

mode*

#

and now it went away.. looks like it's just a slow cache

dense elk Feb 5, 2019, 7:45 AM

#

@polar kelp could you maybe show me an example on how I would set/increase the size of the iframe card with your card-modder...I don't quite get what the readme says...

idle gate Feb 5, 2019, 7:48 AM

#

Any advice on how to group or organize badges? I'd like to place temperatures in a box, humidity in a separate box, luminescence in a separate box, etc. It's too messy as it is.

idle gate Feb 5, 2019, 8:22 AM

#

Or are badges slated to disappear from the UI, and get replaced by cards? Should I not bother to organize the badges?

polar kelp Feb 5, 2019, 8:52 AM

#

@dense elk The iframe card can't be changed.

dense elk Feb 5, 2019, 9:40 AM

#

😢

#

would be really nice if it would be resizable

polar kelp Feb 5, 2019, 9:42 AM

#

You can set the aspect ratio, and the width is controllable to the same extent as all other cards.

dense elk Feb 5, 2019, 9:43 AM

#

so the width would be changed with the card modder?

polar kelp Feb 5, 2019, 9:45 AM

#

No. Just with stacks and/or panel mode.

dense elk Feb 5, 2019, 9:46 AM

#

cool thanks for pointing me out in the right direction where i should read

hot gyro Feb 5, 2019, 12:06 PM

I only got the dial and the 4 values to set

#

@mild veldt thank you for the heads up 😃

dense elk Feb 5, 2019, 1:13 PM

#

is it possible to combine picture-entity and picture-glance cards?

dense elk Feb 5, 2019, 1:49 PM

#

so that i get both colored picture when turned on/black and white when turned off, and below the picture icons showing if motion is detected, toggles for TV etc.

#

in the picture-glance card is it possible to modify the size of the "icons"/toggleable buttons?

mild veldt Feb 5, 2019, 2:26 PM

#

@dense elk put them in a vertical-in-card-stack and it will look like one card

#

https://github.com/custom-cards/vertical-stack-in-card

#

icon size is not editable

dense elk Feb 5, 2019, 2:28 PM

#

@mild veldt nah I think that wouldn't produce the "feeling" that I want 😄

#

I basically want a card acting like both picture-entity and picture-glance in the same card...so from outside it looks like picture-glance but when you click on the picture it turns black'n'white

#

nevermind actually picture-glance support this

#

so question is irrelavant

warm stone Feb 5, 2019, 2:33 PM

#

Anyone wanting to create a nifty card with lots of potential uses. A time/number selector that works like setting the alarm on a phone (roller type thing) other options would be like these since I do see some difficulties in the actual rolling motion and not being a button.
https://github.com/TeamWertarbyte/material-ui-time-picker
https://www.sitepoint.com/10-jquery-time-picker-plugins/

dense elk Feb 5, 2019, 2:33 PM

#

For increasing the size of the iframe thing I'm gonna need some more hand-holding tho' 😃 (with the stacks and panel mode) 😃

mild veldt Feb 5, 2019, 2:33 PM

#

@warm stone no more jquery...

warm stone Feb 5, 2019, 2:35 PM

#

More there as examples. The examples 2 and 6 are close ish way of copying the roller select on phone.

#

The material ui one is a little clunky and can't just be tucked into the corner on a ui

dense elk Feb 5, 2019, 2:40 PM

#

In the map card is there a way to change the "style"/provider of the actual map...this white one is so bland 😃

mild veldt Feb 5, 2019, 3:40 PM

@dense elk no

steady nest Feb 5, 2019, 7:08 PM

#

Hi! I used the all.automation group to show all automations before lovelace. Now this is not working anymore, as you have to add every entity. Is there any way to do this with Lovelace?

latent moss Feb 5, 2019, 7:11 PM

#

@steady nest this card will do what you want i think, check the examples https://github.com/ciotlosm/custom-lovelace/tree/master/monster-card

steady nest Feb 5, 2019, 7:13 PM

#

Thanks @latent moss. I have looked at this card, but could not make it work. Can I just add the example from the Lovelace frontend, or do I have to do something since this is a custom card?

#

I have done this:
Copy the js file from inside the card folder you like (e.g. monster-card), inside your config/www
Add the js file as dependency inside your ui-lovelace.yaml

But that does not work, as I'm not using the ui-lovelace.yaml. Just the frontend

latent moss Feb 5, 2019, 7:15 PM

#

@steady nest Not sure honestly, haven't fully made the switch to Lovelace yet. I think that if you hit the + button and then press "Skip" button on the bottom, it'll allow you paste in raw code like that.

steady nest Feb 5, 2019, 7:16 PM

#

Yeah, that is what I'm trying to do. But that is giving me an error
'YAML Error: TypeError: Cannot read property 'startsWith' of undefined'

#

I don't really understand if the ui-lovelace.yaml is relevant now that I use the frontend to change the lovelace config. Confusing stuff...

latent moss Feb 5, 2019, 7:19 PM

#

the 3 dots in the top right corner, if you click that you'll see raw config editor. you can then paste that custom card code in there i think.

raven nacelle Feb 5, 2019, 7:24 PM

#

@steady nest Use https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-auto-entities instead.

steady nest Feb 5, 2019, 7:30 PM

#

@raven nacelle Thanks, I'll take a look at that one. Is it correct to still add the plugin to the ui-lovelace.yaml file, even when I'm using the frontend to configure lovelace?

raven nacelle Feb 5, 2019, 7:30 PM

#

yes, you still need to add this

elder pendant Feb 5, 2019, 7:31 PM

#

If you're using the default lovelace frontend then you want to add custom components in the raw editor, not in ui-lovelace.yaml

split granite Feb 5, 2019, 7:38 PM

#

@open seal Looks like https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/picture-elements/

civic sedge Feb 5, 2019, 7:40 PM

#

Or just reuse the code in the demo.
https://www.homestyler.com/floorplan/ is a nice website to create floorplans

steady nest Feb 5, 2019, 7:40 PM

#

@elder pendant Thanks, that makes sense. I have added it to the raw config, but are still getting an error: "Custom element doesn't exist: auto-entities."

open seal Feb 5, 2019, 7:41 PM

#

@civic sedge that would have been my next question, thanks!

steady nest Feb 5, 2019, 7:41 PM

Its added like this:

    type: js
views:

open seal Feb 5, 2019, 7:42 PM

#

@elder pendant what can be used, if not "default lovelace frontend"? how can it be different?

elder pendant Feb 5, 2019, 7:42 PM

#

You have it the file in a plugins subdirectory? @steady nest

#

@open seal you can still use ui-lovelace.yaml if you switch to yaml mode

steady nest Feb 5, 2019, 7:43 PM

#

@elder pendant Yeah, inside the www folder

elder pendant Feb 5, 2019, 7:43 PM

~monster-card

kind shellBOT Feb 5, 2019, 8:25 PM

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

hey there guys, i have set up a nice basic ui with cards and views,now i want to jump into lovelace. i dont have the lovelace file in my config folder, so im about to create it. will it mess up my ui? are my cards gonna dissapear?

split granite Feb 5, 2019, 8:32 PM

#

Use the built in editor

open seal Feb 5, 2019, 8:34 PM

#

got it, thanks

latent moss Feb 5, 2019, 8:38 PM

#

I have lovelace: mode: yaml set in my configuration.yaml yet it always shows me the auto-generated lovelace mode. I got it working in storage mode before, but have never been able to get it working where I edit from the text editor.

Every time I do the take control prompt it says hassio.local:8123 says Saving failed: Not supported

open seal Feb 5, 2019, 8:39 PM

#

adding a light with the built in editor adds it as a dimmable light, but it is just a simple switch, pointed to a light component.

elder pendant Feb 5, 2019, 8:39 PM

#

@latent moss you can't use the raw editor if you're in yaml mode

#

or the ui editor

latent moss Feb 5, 2019, 8:40 PM

#

i know, the problem is it's not showing the contents of my yaml file and is instead showing the auto-generated lovelace (basically my states ui but lovelace).. I'm trying to figure out how to get it to show my yaml file

elder pendant Feb 5, 2019, 8:40 PM

#

Do you have a ui-lovelace.yaml file in your configuration folder?

latent moss Feb 5, 2019, 8:40 PM

#

yea

#

this is a photo of the error message i get, every single time https://i.imgur.com/zkCGVBK.png

elder pendant Feb 5, 2019, 8:41 PM

#

Again, you can't do that if you're in yaml mode. Remove lovelace component from configuration.yaml if you want to use that

latent moss Feb 5, 2019, 8:42 PM

#

i want to use the lovelace yaml file, but it's not showing up in the browser for me, i thought that's how you had to trigger it (by pressing take control)

#

is this not correct location? same /config folder as my old views.yaml https://i.imgur.com/fFCvDr4.png

elder pendant Feb 5, 2019, 8:44 PM

#

It goes in the same directory as your configuration.yaml

(am using hassio btw, dont know if there's special instructions for it)

#

ooooh let me try that

anyone know off the top of their head if there is a custom card that has a large text box for input_text?

latent moss Feb 6, 2019, 3:44 AM

#

is it possible to display two cards inside a conditional card? I am trying to display a type: media-control and a type: entities but cannot figure out how.

#

This is my code:

        - type: conditional
          conditions:
            - entity: switch.xbox
              state_not: "off"
          card:
            type: media-control
            entity: media_player.xbox_one
            type: entities
            entities:
              - sensor.xbox_time_today

#

That only displays the last one (type: entities). If I try it as a list format (with dashes before each card type) it errors out.

lime glacier Feb 6, 2019, 3:46 AM

can I get icons across the top in lovelace like in the old UI?

i tried a vertical stack but got an error where the card turned red, maybe my code was wrong tho

latent moss Feb 6, 2019, 4:14 AM

the vertical stack worked thanks @mild veldt , my code was wrong the first time. These conditional cards are so amazing, have already eliminated 3 entire views in just an hour, lovelace rocks 😃

how do people organise their views? I have a view per room and its too much

elder pendant Feb 6, 2019, 5:39 AM

You can get fancy with it and do a home layout card like https://demo.home-assistant.io/#/lovelace/0

errant plover Feb 6, 2019, 6:45 AM

@lime glacier I have a floorplan panel for upstairs and downstairs from which basic things can be controlled, two room views that get the most use, then a bunch of item specific views for detailed info. Like so: https://i.imgur.com/44BLiDG.png This means some cards are repeated in different views.

hoary anchor Feb 6, 2019, 11:23 AM

#

With the new Lovelace UI, should I be able to reference custom cards with the UI editor? I am having trouble with adding my first custom, I get the error
Custom element doesn't exist: mini-media-player.
{
"type": "custom:mini-media-player"
}
This is the card: https://github.com/kalkih/mini-media-player
I have put the .js in the www, and referenced the resource in ui_lovelace.yaml

#

Only thing I am unsure about is the ui_lovelace.yaml looks nothing like what the frontend config is set up to be.

polar kelp Feb 6, 2019, 11:24 AM

#

If you are using the UI editor, ui_lovelace.yaml is ignored. Add the resource through the "Raw editor" behind the three dots in the top right corner instead.

#

If you wish to use ui_lovelace.yaml, you need to activate yaml mode, but then you can't use the UI editor.

#

A dynamic attribute, no? The order is static

Hello everybody, I'm looking for an easy way to change icon of binary_sensor in lovelace depending on its state.
It seems the following does not work.


icon: >
  if (state === 'off') return 'mdi:television';
  return 'mdi:television-off';

polar kelp Feb 6, 2019, 3:17 PM

#

@lunar lark what did you try?

#

@keen belfry That looks like custom-ui syntax. A better way would be to define a template binary_sensor with a icon_template using jinja.

keen belfry Feb 6, 2019, 3:18 PM

#

I never manipulated templates up to now.

#

I'm going to give a look. Thanks @polar kelp

lunar lark Feb 6, 2019, 3:21 PM

#

@polar kelp I tried this:

type: 'custom:monster-card'
card:
  title: Chodba
  type: glance
  tap_action:
    action: toggle

#

This is definitely wrong but I have no idea how to "apply" tap action to entities within the glance type card.

polar kelp Feb 6, 2019, 3:24 PM

#

You do that with the options parameter of the filters.

#

There's an example in my auto-entities card (which is a more updated reimplementation of monster-card) https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-auto-entities

#

The "Show all lights that are on:" example. It's syntax compatible with monster-card.

my system is SUPER stable

polar kelp Feb 6, 2019, 8:24 PM

#

Not very likely. Auto-entities is actually based on another plugin which is based on a feature which was removed from core.

#

And if you want stability, don't use auto-entities with 0.86. It leaks memory like crazy.

#

FIxed in 0.87, though.

#

Yes i am

mild veldt Feb 6, 2019, 10:17 PM

#

either way, your configuration doesn't change

#

"order" has no relation on results; as I'm assuming you are talking about the config fields being alphabetical

forest mica Feb 6, 2019, 10:18 PM

#

Huh i never noticed that before.. cards athe the top.. then entities and then type. So yeah i guess it is alphabetical

mild veldt Feb 6, 2019, 10:19 PM

#

in the end, it is just a lookup table of sorts

#

e.g. config.entities works regardless if it is before title or after title

Ok i will try that when i get home in 30 or so. Thanks!

Hey all, loving the new lovelace, finally moved everything from groups to lovelace proper to get all the new features. I'm having an issues with the "history-graph". It seems to chart two graphs and I don't know why.

https://imgur.com/a/bpaKzUh

entities:

entity: sensor.bom_melbourne_cbd_air_temp_c
name: Outside Temp
sensor.temperature_158d000156dca6
sensor.temperature_158d0001a2e7ec
sensor.living_room_temperature
title: Air Temp vs. Inside Temp
hours_to_show: 72
type: history-graph

#

The top graph is exactly what I was hoping for (love it!) No idea why its producing the second one - wait, i wonder if it is purely because when i set-up the original livnig room temperature I set it to "degrees" but my history has both "degrees" and "C" version, could that be it?

#

That doesn't appear to be it, I set the time interval to 1 hour and it is still broken

polar kelp Feb 7, 2019, 7:42 AM

#

If you go to /dev-states states and check their unit_of_measurement:, what does it say?

wary chasm Feb 7, 2019, 8:44 AM

#

@polar kelp they say the following
unit_of_measurement: °C
unit_of_measurement: °C
unit_of_measurement: °C

#

Unless I am losing it (i copied each one seperately, they look identical to me - do I need to paste something unique into my config to make sure its the same unit???

I'f it helps, in my sensors.yaml i've got the follow

platform: template
sensors:
living_room_temperature:
friendly_name: "Living Room Temp"
unit_of_measurement: '°C'
device_class: temperature
value_template: "{{ state_attr('fan.xiaomi_miio_device','temperature') }}"

polar kelp Feb 7, 2019, 8:51 AM

#

The config files are probably utf-8 formated (if you have a decent operating system), so there could be all kinds of stuff in there...

@sturdy vector what's your question?

sturdy vector Feb 7, 2019, 8:52 AM

#

it looks for me that the when option is not working

#

at least for me

#

it should hide the card if the when state device is met

#

thats my understanding

#

but nothing happens, card is always displayed

Please follow the rules, @sturdy vector! You have 5 warning(s) left. You posted a message/code that is more than 15 lines. It is moved here --> https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/NpZ3pW8Sh4/

polar kelp Feb 7, 2019, 8:53 AM

#

I suggest using conditional instead https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/conditional/

wary chasm Feb 7, 2019, 8:53 AM

#

@sturdy vector you can do that with an entityfilter - i've done that to hide media components from showing when onthing is playing

sturdy vector Feb 7, 2019, 8:53 AM

#

i can't use it cause i need a loop for searching the devices. i choosed monster-card cause you can put: switch.*

#

and it will grab all the switches, for example

#

im trying to make a card which displays devices left on when no one is at home

#

but i need the card to be displayed only when no one is at home

wary chasm Feb 7, 2019, 8:55 AM

#

https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/NBTwTSQ8xD/

#

Check out that, just change state-filter to "group.anyone_home"

#

and create a group for anyone home?

#

(one option, lots of options probably - just what i'm familiar with)

polar kelp Feb 7, 2019, 8:56 AM

#

Eric, that only works when displaying the same entities as controll the condition. For having something else controll the display, there's conditional.

wary chasm Feb 7, 2019, 8:57 AM

#

Thanks for the lesson, thought i'd starting getting my head around lovelace, guess not!

polar kelp Feb 7, 2019, 8:58 AM

#

type: conditional
conditions: 
  - entity: sensor.who_home
    state_not: 'noone'
card:
  type: custom:monster-card
  ... etc ...```

#

If you don't want to use conditional, you could just fix your indentations, btw. That would work too.

#

when should be in line with filter

#

And while we're on the subject here's an improved reimplementation of monster-card: https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-auto-entities
(allthough I may be partial)

sturdy vector Feb 7, 2019, 9:03 AM

#

wow, thats awesome

#

i ll use yours

#

thanks for the help

#

i have another question if someone can help me

#

im not as good on jinja

#

but here s my thing: i am trying to make an automation which check what devices are on when nobody is home and turn them for me

#

i have used jinja template for the automation

#

but i have one problem

#

last comma of the string from the loop

#

i cannot remove it

#

here it is the code:

wary chasm Feb 7, 2019, 9:09 AM

#

looks like they agree with you that you've got the better version!

#

Does this mean if i upgrade, your card will be out of the box?

polar kelp Feb 7, 2019, 9:14 AM

#

No. It's still a custom card.

#

I recommend upgrading, btw. There's a memory leak problem in 0.86 which affects auto-entities, monster-card, conditional, state-filter and similar cards.

#

Makes your browser reeeeealy sluggish after a couple of hours.

wary chasm Feb 7, 2019, 9:17 AM

#

Noted, will do that tomorrow - your customer card looks awesome btw, really going to save me a lot of time

polar kelp Feb 7, 2019, 9:19 AM

#

@sturdy vector If you go to /dev-templates there's some sample code at the bottom which used {% if loop.last %}. That might be something for you. loop is set automatically inside a for-loop.

sturdy vector Feb 7, 2019, 9:29 AM

#

thanks @polar kelp , i ll take a look

dense elk Feb 7, 2019, 9:49 AM

#

For example if I want to format the date in a more nicely readable format, should i do that in the configuration.yaml or in the lovelace editor?

sleek warren Feb 7, 2019, 10:16 AM

#

bashing head off wall here, some custom cards work but comster-card keeps saying does not exist 😦 known issue?

polar kelp Feb 7, 2019, 10:17 AM

#

Never heard of that? Typo? Browser log?

sleek warren Feb 7, 2019, 10:17 AM

#

monster-card not comster sorry!

#

tried 2 browsers incase of versioning, i will double check for typo now heart rate dropped 😃

polar kelp Feb 7, 2019, 10:18 AM

#

Check your browser log

sleek warren Feb 7, 2019, 10:23 AM

#

assume i still need to use ui-lovelace.yaml to point to the card? or has this changed in recent revisions?

dense elk Feb 7, 2019, 10:27 AM

#

thomasloven do any of the point versions of 0.86 have that memory leak already addressed?

polar kelp Feb 7, 2019, 10:47 AM

#

No

#

0.87.0 is first

#

@sleek warren if you’re using the UI editor, you add resources in the Raw editor behind the three dots

#

Ui_lovelace is only used in yaml mode.

@polar kelp do you have any screenshots of your lovelace setup available?

polar kelp Feb 7, 2019, 11:01 AM

I use two custom cards.

And they're both used only here.

I have a timer exposed in the UI, when the timer gets re-triggered while it is already counting down, the ui doesn't reflect the 2nd trigger. It just continues the first countdown ?
Am I holding it wrong ?

hallow steppe Feb 7, 2019, 11:54 AM

#

My custom lovelace ha-card resizes to something tiny when I call new google.maps.Map() with a div element that is correctly rendered and sized before

#

Trying to make a Google Maps-based location history card but I'm painfully new to js

#

The card does seem to resize correctly if I change its contents innerHTML manually in the same line, but Google's API takes an element and does some magic to put itself in it... Any ideas?

thanks @polar kelp i had been using the ui-lovelace file out of habit 😃 i can scrap that file now yes? i do use the raw editor

#

works btw 😃 its super sexy to lol

hallow steppe Feb 7, 2019, 12:13 PM

#

Fixed my problem 😃 Map constructor took option noClear which did not clear the div element which lets me set a size on it when the card is loaded/updated

normal nexus Feb 7, 2019, 12:36 PM

#

Does the new editor finally allow you to save comments?

sleek warren Feb 7, 2019, 12:36 PM

now just tap_action on elements to figure out!

@normal nexus No. There will be no comments in the UI editor.

torn sail Feb 7, 2019, 1:55 PM

#

did the way custom cards are loaded change in 0.86? My calendar card stopped working because the moment script isn't finished loading before the calendar card tries to get created

#

moment was always defined in 0.85 but now its randomly not as if the cards are being async loaded now

polar kelp Feb 7, 2019, 2:01 PM

#

They always were async loaded, but since 0.86 the entire view isn't rebuilt once after every time a card finishes loading.

#

So now the entire view doesn't flash several times on reload, but there can be some race conditions for custom cards.

#

Iirc the moment script is loaded as a resource, but from unpkg, right?

#

Yeah. Try adding import("https://unpkg.com/moment@2.22.2/moment.js"); to the top of calendar-card.js.

torn sail Feb 7, 2019, 2:07 PM

yep its from unpkg. I'll try that out thanks!

Any way to force update lovelace auto mode?

elder pendant Feb 7, 2019, 3:17 PM

Refresh the page?

#

If you added a new device/component you'll have to restart HA

loud thistle Feb 7, 2019, 3:17 PM

#

Even rebooted the device twice...

elder pendant Feb 7, 2019, 3:19 PM

#

You don't have to reboot when you make changes. You just have to restart home assistant. But try refreshing the page a few times in your browser to update the cache. If you still don't see your changes try incognito mode/another browser, if you still don't see changes then you didn't actually make any changes

@calm rock if you go to full yaml mode, instead of storage mode

while , keeping the edit card capability

just , using a more convinient edditor

ok, the built in edditor , made very bad modifications ( for me) , on the way things are organized , so using that edditopr directly is almost impossible

cerulean scarab Feb 7, 2019, 6:44 PM

It seems to sort the entites alphabetically, still works, but is a tad ugly and tough to visualize

#

my brain wants card properties before enties

mortal cape Feb 7, 2019, 6:44 PM

#

@calm rock it's putting them in alphabetical order.

cerulean scarab Feb 7, 2019, 6:44 PM

#

title and type at the end, lol

calm rock Feb 7, 2019, 6:46 PM

#

but , also the structure is reversed , first cards, then card type , last icon, panel, title ...

mortal cape Feb 7, 2019, 6:47 PM

#

yep, all alphabetical

calm rock Feb 7, 2019, 6:47 PM

#

ok, will work, on a paralell file , see how it goes, tks

calm rock Feb 7, 2019, 7:02 PM

#

is a nightmare , are you guys able to understand where your are standing from that view ? , or am i doing something very, very wrong ; i feel so lost on that file , that im thinking on going back to plain yaml mode

mortal cape Feb 7, 2019, 7:10 PM

#

I guess I don't feel the need to manipulate it that much

#

I work more card to card

calm rock Feb 7, 2019, 7:26 PM

i may be more "dumb " im totally lost with the new layout , hopefully it will get used somehow ..

slow wave Feb 7, 2019, 7:59 PM

#

@calm rock that messed with my mind too, so I went back to yaml, couldn't follow it at all

mortal cape Feb 7, 2019, 7:59 PM

#

@fiery temple I like the big ones. if the background/text contrast is tweaked. Will probably look better on mobile than the stacked

fiery temple Feb 7, 2019, 8:22 PM

#

thanks

mild veldt Feb 7, 2019, 8:24 PM

#

@cerulean scarab are you not on 0.87? There is a new editor that has line numbers, tab indents and syntax highlighting

#

@slow wave @calm rock if you're in storage mode, what is your use case that you are having to open raw editor beyond adding resources?

slow wave Feb 7, 2019, 8:28 PM

#

@mild veldt I never got comfortable with the UI editor either, so I tried the raw editor but that just made it worse, so yaml was a lot better for me, probably a side effect of being a Unix guy for the last 15+ years and working on console ports a lot these days

fiery temple Feb 7, 2019, 8:28 PM

#

i would get confirtable with the new uit editor if i were you

#

i think yaml mode dies, not now, not tomorrow, but eventually

#

to make this community even bigger things need to get easier and thats exactly what ui editors start with

cerulean scarab Feb 7, 2019, 8:59 PM

#

@mild veldt I am on 0.87, I see the new improvements, but it's only tab intenting at the cursor position. The feature I am acustomed to is select a block of config, hit tab, and change everything in the selection. All that does today is replace the selection with Tabs.

mild veldt Feb 7, 2019, 8:59 PM

#

gotcha

#

looks codemirror does have that ability. I'll see about adding it @cerulean scarab

cerulean scarab Feb 7, 2019, 9:01 PM

#

Oh, awesome, thanks!

calm rock Feb 7, 2019, 9:05 PM

#

@mild veldt , Hi, i found the editor incapable to work with combined cards , for example , if i need a simple "monster card" inside a vertical card , just trying to align and to follow the needed sintax, is almost impossible , for a regular human .

Does anyone have a recommendation for updating a iframe url to grafana. Its looking for a to and from unix time value, it would be nice to be able to compute now and beginning of the day

mild veldt Feb 7, 2019, 9:16 PM

#

@indigo rose so your url needs to be dynamic?

indigo rose Feb 7, 2019, 9:17 PM

#

yea, https://192.168.1.251:3000/d-solo/A-cfHZZRz/power?orgId=1&from=1549429200000&to=1549490493741&refresh=5m&theme=light&panelId=2" width="450" height="200" frameborder="0"

#

this example url, is the link from grafana.

#

notice the from and to

mild veldt Feb 7, 2019, 9:17 PM

#

not currently possible, but you could easily make a custom card that could be, I would think

indigo rose Feb 7, 2019, 9:18 PM

#

so there is no inline yaml replacement?

mild veldt Feb 7, 2019, 9:18 PM

#

no

#

no templating

indigo rose Feb 7, 2019, 9:18 PM

#

hmm, ok thanks for the feedback

mild veldt Feb 7, 2019, 9:19 PM

#

but a grafana iframe card sounds like a great card to have. i still need to setup grafana since doing a fresh install recently. might give this a go this weekend unless you think you might?

indigo rose Feb 7, 2019, 9:19 PM

#

never done it before, my onboarding might be longer than you. (just started with HA a few weeks ago)

#

I think copying the iframe, and adding variables for to and from. With selectors for computing time, or now or now/d, now/M, now/Y ....

mild veldt Feb 7, 2019, 9:21 PM

#

cool. so I'm thinking the card will take in those variables (hours, refresh, theme, width, height)

#

don't copy iframe

#

you can instantiate it from a custom card

indigo rose Feb 7, 2019, 9:21 PM

#

I yield my HA best practice to you

sharp talon Feb 7, 2019, 10:36 PM

#

I'm finding it increasingly frustrating when trying to nest card types together (for example horizontal and vertical stacks) one wrong space or indentation and it breaks. Does anyone have any tips (or tools) which will help with nesting cards together?

mild veldt Feb 7, 2019, 10:39 PM

#

Until we have a UI editor your best course of action is probably using something like vscode with a YAML extension that will highlight indentation errors

sharp talon Feb 7, 2019, 10:40 PM

#

thanks @mild veldt will give it a look. I'm guessing Atom will have an extension too 😃

hey all, I'm trying to set up the button-card from here (https://community.home-assistant.io/t/lovelace-button-card/65981) but, after following the instructions I get a 404 error when it attempts to get the /local/button-card.js file
There was no www folder in my hassio (via docker) so I created one in the config directory. Did I do something wrong?

polar kelp Feb 8, 2019, 8:37 AM

You need to restart hass once after creating www/.

restarting hass is annoying because it breaks my zwave but....oh well

wet ferry Feb 8, 2019, 8:56 AM

#

Just getting started with Lovelace so I'm going to ask what's probably an obvious question... To use custom cards do you have to put Lovelace in YAML mode? Or is it possible to use custom cards with the UI config?

fiery temple Feb 8, 2019, 9:00 AM

#

just curious where comes the name from or if the word lovelace means something

solid wyvern Feb 8, 2019, 10:20 AM

#

So....I'm trying to set up my lovelace ui... is there anyway of dealing with zwave ids better than what I have now.
I've given friendly names to my entities but, when adding them to lovelace I have to use the entity_id.

#

These look like

- entity: light.aeotec_zw111_nano_dimmer_level
          - entity: light.aeotec_zw111_nano_dimmer_level_2
          - entity: light.aeotec_zw111_nano_dimmer_level_3
          - entity: light.aeotec_zw111_nano_dimmer_level_4
          - entity: light.aeotec_zw111_nano_dimmer_level_5
          - entity: light.aeotec_zw111_nano_dimmer_level_6

#

Which means I have a very hard time knowing which entity is which light

Is anyone here familiar with Kiosk mode for Lovelace? https://gist.github.com/ciotlosm/1f09b330aa5bd5ea87b59f33609cc931

#

Is it possible to get Kiosk mode working with Lovelace in UI config mode?

#

It seems like the only challenge is figuring out how to make Lovelace aware of the kiosk.js file.

#

Installation instructions say the following: "Like any other custom script, use ui-lovelace.yaml resources section to reference the kiosk.js file."

You can’t make several cards from a monster card.

Hey guys, anyone else noticed that using icons with names like "ABCD-XYZ" doesn't work, the "-" breaks it and shows up as no icon (when using the Lovelace UI configuration)

tacit cave Feb 8, 2019, 9:46 PM

#

using the GUI?

dark crown Feb 8, 2019, 9:47 PM

#

nvm I think my panel iframe shows the wrong version of the icons as they just updated. I will check into it and see if this is the cause

#

this was indeed what caused the error. I changed to the correct version : https://cdn.materialdesignicons.com/3.4.93/

glad cave Feb 8, 2019, 9:56 PM

#

@dark crown It's interesting that you say that. I've tried using mdi:car-parking-lights for a while now and it refuses to work whilst others without "-" work. From the little research I've done I thought it is because they don't always get included in the updates but perhaps not. I'll look through and see if I have any working with a - symbol

#

Scrap that. I do have others work that include a hyphen

tacit cave Feb 8, 2019, 9:58 PM

#

I have plenty with -, what are you using the GUI or yaml mode?

glad cave Feb 8, 2019, 10:00 PM

#

I've tried both. Setting through the card with the tag and through the customisation menu

tacit cave Feb 8, 2019, 10:00 PM

#

Ok, what you described is only "GUI"

#

yaml mode is where you use yaml to describe the entirety of the UI through ui-lovelace.yaml

#

It's possible that -'s don't work in the GUI, but unlikely

#

which icon are you trying again?

glad cave Feb 8, 2019, 10:02 PM

#

Probably a stupid question but is there an easy way to change over? Can I copy the contents out of the raw config editor to the ui-lovelace.yaml, update my configuration.yaml and that's it?
The one I was trying to use was car-parking-lights

#

car-light-dimmed
car-light-high
car-tire-alert
car-brake-alert
all failed for me too. There are some from other categories that I tried but I can't remember them off the top of my head

Is this the correct place for Lovelace feature requests https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant-polymer , or should I float the idea in here first? I'd really love the ability to "hide" views, did a quick mockup here: https://i.imgur.com/Aygn0T4.png

astral vortex Feb 8, 2019, 11:23 PM

#

Has anyone combined a switch and binary_sensor into one entity-button card?

#

I have a garage door, the switch toggles the door and the sensor is the state, would like them to look like one entity, but it hasn't struck me on how best to accomplish it

mild veldt Feb 8, 2019, 11:27 PM

#

@latent moss look at custom-comoact-header

#

@astral vortex use the sensor for the entity button and call the service to activate the switch

#

Can pass any entity_id for the service_data

astral vortex Feb 8, 2019, 11:30 PM

#

I just figured that out

#

Helps if you read all of the docs...

latent moss Feb 8, 2019, 11:31 PM

#

Awesome thank you @mild veldt seems like it'll do what I want. I think this is useful enough to be made a core feature tho imo. All the built in cards have customization options but not really for views.

glad cave Feb 8, 2019, 11:37 PM

#

I don't think it is possible but thought I'd ask. I'm trying to hide a card on certain days at certain times. I need to do it with a custom card type called flex-table-card. Anyone done anything like this or anyone got any advice?

latent moss Feb 8, 2019, 11:41 PM

#

You can do that with a conditional card @glad cave . I just set up something similar yesterday. You'd need to create a sensor or something for the certain times. I can share mine for current weekday in a sec.

glad cave Feb 8, 2019, 11:42 PM

#

@latent moss I've got a template configured with the time and that works on other cards but I can't get it working with the flex-table custom card

#

Am I being an idiot or is it a limitation of the custom card.
Please share, every little helps 😃

latent moss Feb 8, 2019, 11:44 PM

#

Haven't used flex-table, but I did get conditional by day working yesterday using default cards,

      - type: conditional
        conditions:
          - entity: sensor.date_weekday
            state: "Monday"
        card:
          type: vertical-stack
          cards:
            - type: glance

#

the sensor for weekday i made:

sensor:
  - platform: template
    sensors:
      date_weekday:
        entity_id: sensor.time_date
        value_template: "{{as_timestamp(now())|timestamp_custom('%A', True)}}"

glad cave Feb 8, 2019, 11:45 PM

#

Thanks, I'll give it another shot

how would i make a button with my picture on it that says device tracker is home so i can do automations, when not home the button should holds a greyout picture. i can tap the button to come home or leave home, ,which set my phone_state to home or not_home, namp isnt realible so i need a button that i can click when im home, and click again when im not home, that give me the ability to create automations, like start light if home and later then sun.sun_down or so...

Just upgraded to 0.87 this morning from 0.80, so new to Lovelace and I have a grouping question. I've got lights on either side of my living room fireplace which I've added to a group called "Fireplace" which is, in turn, in a group called "Living Room." The problem is that I can't figure out how to make the group "Fireplace" be a switch in "Living Room" but NOT show up as a group on its own. I've tried control: hidden, but it still shows up.

#

Just discovered the UI editor! Wow! Why did I wait to go to Lovelace??? 😃 😃 😃

Any way to hide the not_home device tracker entities as badges in Lovelace? In known_devices hide if away is set to true, used to work with the old states UI, but with Lovelace all are visible that I added in the web UI editor.

#

Please tag me if you have any idea. Thanks. @open seal

viral root Feb 9, 2019, 9:32 PM

#

is it possible to show the old states view in 0.87.0 ?

#

clicking on "Go to the states UI" on info just shows the left menu again nested with an empty page

glad cave Feb 9, 2019, 9:34 PM

#

@open seal Have a look in your known_device.yaml and look at the device in question. You should be able to change the flag on hide_if_away: false/true.
Is that what you are after?

open seal Feb 9, 2019, 9:40 PM

@glad cave yes, I'm already using the hide if away function, but they still stay there

what you mean with default_view?

open seal Feb 9, 2019, 9:51 PM

As far as I know if you disable the default_view, you will have to enter what entities you want to see in the ui

But I might be wrong

I'm working on a new climate component and all my thermostats are displaying null for the temperature setpoint when the device is off (because the component returns None in the situation). Is there something I can do in my component to tell lovelace that this property isn't valid at the moment? (the states UI just doesn't display anything). Or am I missing something fundamental about how a climate component should behave? (I've removed on/off support in favour of heat/off modes too to make it behave more like the demo climate components, I hope that is correct).

@wary chasm haven't played with auto-entities, but it looks like you need to define your card for the conditional. You have two card types in the first example...and I don't know what's going on in the 2nd
