#

@polar kelp are you planning on getting the card loader card into hacs?

polar kelp Jul 27, 2019, 6:38 PM

#

No

#

Are there any cards around that still require it?

tacit cave Jul 27, 2019, 6:39 PM

#

no, its just a nice utility to update custom solutions from

polar kelp Jul 27, 2019, 6:39 PM

#

It was a temporary workaround until card devs got around to fixing their stuff. Most problems I knew about were fixed within a week.

#

card-loader, I mean.
If you have the latest version of everything you really shouldn't need it. And if you do, that's a bug.

tacit cave Jul 27, 2019, 6:40 PM

#

Ah

#

I still use it. I have no clue if it's still needed

#

haven't updated my UI in a few months

#

Still using card-modder too 🙃

#

gotta get rid of that at some point

polar kelp Jul 27, 2019, 6:42 PM

#

If it works it works

strong finch Jul 27, 2019, 7:30 PM

civic sedge Jul 27, 2019, 7:47 PM

#

some of you also got that a picture entety with an unavailable state image doesnt render anymore?

polar kelp Jul 27, 2019, 8:34 PM

#

So... how about jinja2 templates in things like markdown-mod, card-mod etc. rather than my stupid made up ones?

civic sedge Jul 27, 2019, 8:42 PM

#

would approve - but your made up ones actually arnt this bad

half osprey Jul 27, 2019, 8:46 PM

#

@polar kelp jinja2 rendering for markdown by sending it to the backend for rendering? That could work

polar kelp Jul 27, 2019, 8:47 PM

#

Yeah. Via an api call.

#

I just have the documentation left.

half osprey Jul 27, 2019, 8:49 PM

#

how are you planning on triggering re-renders ?

#

like every 60 seconds ?

gloomy knoll Jul 27, 2019, 10:47 PM

#

Anyone got advice on how to pull off a 2-column card? I'd like this to be 4-columns wide, with the floorplan taking up the left 2 columns: http://bru.ms/J93P6U

mild veldt Jul 27, 2019, 11:32 PM

#

@half osprey @polar kelp in my config-template-card you either up date on each Hass event (timer would be better) or you define the entities to watch; which I hope most people do

half osprey Jul 28, 2019, 12:04 AM

#

I wouldn't mind seeing jinja2 support by rendering in the backend as part of main lovelace.

#

just not sure how updating would work, I guess we could expose an API for extracting relevant apis?

cyan terrace Jul 28, 2019, 1:15 AM

#

I have a weird issue - I'm using entity_picture: /local/images/window.jpg in the custom: button-card while using the custom: decluttering-card and the image is not showing up in the front-end - Any ideas how to troubleshoot? In developer tools --> inspector I just see [[entity_picture]]

tacit cave Jul 28, 2019, 1:30 AM

#

@mild veldt is card loader needed anymore?

mild veldt Jul 28, 2019, 1:30 AM

#

For what?

tacit cave Jul 28, 2019, 1:30 AM

#

for loading order issues

mild veldt Jul 28, 2019, 1:30 AM

#

I have no idea

tacit cave Jul 28, 2019, 1:31 AM

#

I'm guessing yes then! Thanks

Can anyone help with getting this HACS aarlo-glance card to work? My config is setup with the sensors, binary and all, but cannot seem to add a card or anything. I added the reouse as it showed like ```resources:

type: module
url: /local/aarlo-glance.js```

#

but still not getting anywhere

#

Where I want the card, I get: Custom element doesn't exist: aarlo-glance.

split granite Jul 28, 2019, 8:08 AM

I don't use HACS 😉

weak apex Jul 28, 2019, 8:09 AM

#

@thinkerer only way I could find to get Arlo

unless you can point me elsewhere

split granite Jul 28, 2019, 8:10 AM

#

You can always manually configure these things

weak apex Jul 28, 2019, 8:10 AM

#

I see them as a badge

#

but was trying to get a glance or something for snapshots or live view if motion detected

errant plover Jul 28, 2019, 10:03 AM

#

According to HACS your resource is not specified correctly. It should be: - url: /community_plugin/lovelace-hass-aarlo/hass-aarlo.js

green raft Jul 28, 2019, 10:27 AM

#

I just had similar issues. It's so weird that HACs uses the /community/ directory, but resolves it to /community_plugin/ for Lovelace.

thorn mulch Jul 28, 2019, 11:38 AM

hi, what is the simplest way to list all device_tracker in lovelace ui?

split granite Jul 28, 2019, 11:39 AM

#

Probably https://github.com/custom-cards/monster-card since it takes wildcards

hi, I have almost configured Hassio to control my country house. I run in a problem it's all the day i try to solve: I added 2 Blink cameras and I added 2 cards in Lovelace with the relevant automations (take a snapshot, record a video). I make everything works except I can't find a way to view the video recorded locally inside Lovelace. There is a way to di this? Thanks!

Hello, anybody using Thomas Loven's slider-entity-row? For some reason, I don't get the slider anymore after using it for a couple months.

distant gorge Jul 28, 2019, 2:09 PM

#

Hey @here could anyone help my understand why my theme looks different in incognito vs normal using chrome. I have an automation for the theme to change between day/night. However it seems the change is only reflected on the incognito page version... thoughts?

#

Thanks in advance, maybe clearing some browser stuff? seems odd that it would behave this way. I just thought the automation was broken 😄

potent compass Jul 28, 2019, 2:36 PM

#

in a manual they say i need to add these lines to the configuration. wich config is it?

limpid sandal Jul 28, 2019, 3:00 PM

#

I added a background picture to my "www"-folder and i also added "background: url("/local/darkwood.jpg")" to my lovelace yaml, but the pic only shows in my views/cards. I get no bg pic on "system pages" like Hass.io, Configuration, Developer Tools and the likes.

#

Could i instead add the bg pic to the theme, so that it will show up consistently on all pages within HA?

ebon heron Jul 28, 2019, 3:04 PM

#

Hello all, I just setup Home Assistant on a Ubuntu machine running docker and Hass.io. Ive been at it all weekend and I think I found my new obsession. One thing I am having trouble with is how to customize my theme? I see there are a lot of cool themes out there I just can't figure out how to add them to my home assistant. I checked the Home Assistant docs and it doesn't say much. Can anyone point me to documentation on how to add a custom theme?

limpid sandal Jul 28, 2019, 3:05 PM

#

@ebon heron Check this for hints https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Xpd4zB2eRM

limpid sandal Jul 28, 2019, 3:35 PM

#

So, no chance of adding bgimg to the system pages in HA UI?

full cosmos Jul 28, 2019, 3:46 PM

I have found out that the slider entity row still works. It just does not work with lights connected through deconz. Anybody know why? And maybe a fix for this?

I got my cards to layout like I'd like, but I'd love for them to be twice as wide: http://bru.ms/FG6BtZ

anybody here, who could help me solving this problem?

mossy otter Jul 28, 2019, 7:07 PM

#

hi guys - I'm trying to figure out how to get my input_datetime in uk format, and also how to enable it to say "7 November 2019" on my frontend

vapid field Jul 28, 2019, 7:17 PM

#

No one?

polar kelp Jul 28, 2019, 7:23 PM

#

The readme of auto-entities links to installation instructions which contains a troubleshooting guide. Start with that.

#

@mossy otter we decided to follow internationally agreed standards for datetime_input instead.

mossy otter Jul 28, 2019, 7:28 PM

#

@polar kelp that's fair enough. I may just create a set of three inputs that combine to create a time sensor...that seems like the easiest thing to do

polar kelp Jul 28, 2019, 7:29 PM

#

If you want it anyway, this supports it: https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-time-input-row/blob/master/README.md (may be considered offensive to some)

mossy otter Jul 28, 2019, 7:30 PM

#

great stuff, thanks!

vapid field Jul 28, 2019, 7:31 PM

@polar kelp the log says: http://192.168.178.116:8123/local/auto-entities/auto-entities.js?v=1:7:1 Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token

polar kelp Jul 28, 2019, 7:32 PM

#

The am/pm selector doesn’t quite work in the upstream component, btw. You’ll have to change hours or minutes after changing it to make the changes go through.

#

@vapid field then your browser log will mention ”<”, which is a problem explained in the same article.

mossy otter Jul 28, 2019, 7:36 PM

#

@polar kelp on that github it shows the default datetimeinput as a day rather than as an entry field...yet that's not how it looks on my frontend

polar kelp Jul 28, 2019, 7:37 PM

#

That’s an old screenshot

#

Before I had that plugin implemented into core.

#

If you want that add type: custom:hui-text-entity-row to the row config.

strong falcon Jul 28, 2019, 7:40 PM

#330944238910963714 @strong falcon

But it’s because you’re using the right function inthe first one, and the wrong one in the second.

strong falcon Jul 28, 2019, 7:42 PM

#

oops sorry, forgot to change the group

polar kelp Jul 28, 2019, 7:42 PM

state_attr vs. is_state

split granite Jul 28, 2019, 7:42 PM

#

is_state returns true/false 😉

strong falcon Jul 28, 2019, 7:43 PM

so it still should be state_attr for the second?

@polar kelp thank you. but now i get the next error: Can't find card-tools. See https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-card-tools it´s mentioned in the readme too and now I added this ressoruce:

@half osprey I didn't really think about the update frequency... Before I had my own very simple templates which were fast enough to reevaluate on every hass update and then rerender if necessary. With an api call involved that's not really sustainable anymore... 🤔

#

But enforcing a list of entities to track isn't a bad idea. It work for backend 🤷

weak apex Jul 28, 2019, 10:38 PM

Can anyone help with the aarlo-glance card issue posted above?

half osprey Jul 28, 2019, 11:26 PM

#

@polar kelp we have advanced tracking built into the backend, which can detect which entities a template relies on. We can see if we can expose that info in the template result API

polar kelp Jul 28, 2019, 11:27 PM

#

Didn’t we stop using that for template sensors?

@errant plover can this be applied to all cards alltogether? Or will I have to repeat this css rule on every card?

Every card you want the shadow removed from.

polar kelp Jul 29, 2019, 8:41 AM

sleek ginkgo Jul 29, 2019, 1:56 PM

@devout hatch homeassistant.check_config is the correct service, but it will not return any response. It will log any errors in the Home Assistant log. If you're looking for a way to call a config check from Lovelace, though, I've created an AppDaemon app (which can be installed from HACS, so it's pretty easy to set up and requires minimal configuration). Link if you're interested: https://github.com/apop880/config-check

Can anyone explain to me why my picture-entity cards with live camera feed keeps resizing on all my tablets running Fully Kiosk. Tried settings aspect_ratio to 16x9 and that keeps the card sizes, but the camera picture inside the card will resize/zoom in and not fill the whole camera feed. A reload always fixes the issue and the view is back to normal, but then it happens again after seconds/minutes. This happens with all cameras showing in Lovelace. The cameras run through Blue Iris. Thanks

anyone have any ideas how to get custom:button-card to have a toggle action for entities that do not have a toggle such as alarm_control_panel? the tap_action does not support templating the service call

mild veldt Jul 29, 2019, 6:25 PM

#

what do you mean the tap action doesn't have templating?

#

you mean checking if it is armed or disarmed?

#

just put it in a script and run the script from the tap action

hollow rain Jul 29, 2019, 6:29 PM

#

ahh, script, ok, I was hoping to call either "alarm_control_panel.disarm/alarm_control_panel.alarm_arm_away" based on the current state. but yeah creating that as a script seems like it would be easier. All of my stuff is in node-red so I'm not currently utilizing the scripts function

mild veldt Jul 29, 2019, 6:31 PM

config-template-card is another option, but for this would suggest just a simple script

I have a question 😃 I'm having problems with popup-card..I added it to the resources in the config raw editor
and in the view:

      person.michal:
        card:
          type: entities
          entities:
            - input_number.ac_schedule_target_temp```

#

and I don't see the card popup..I'm doing something wrong?

mild veldt Jul 30, 2019, 1:16 PM

#

@fleet scaffold I suggest using this instead https://github.com/thomasloven/hass-browser_mod. I believe Thomas has previously said that he'll likely stop supporting popup-card in favor of browser_mod at some point. Plus it is much more powerful 😉

fleet scaffold Jul 30, 2019, 1:16 PM

#

@mild veldt ok, I will try, just from the description I thought this one is more fitting 😃

fleet scaffold Jul 30, 2019, 3:55 PM

#

ok..now I feel dumb..

#

remember I said I added it to the resources section in raw editor?

#

well..it works better if the path is right..

#

I forgot to add /local/

Question - when creating a card and using a sensor for example how does one get it to be removed from Unused Entities, somethings get removed but others stay. Any thoughts? For example My Miflora items are in card but are still showing unused. see here http://bit.ly/2GCp0JL

#

is there a way to manually remove or are they just stuck

polar kelp Jul 30, 2019, 4:50 PM

#

They are supposed to be removed if you use them in a core card, but aren't always... it's a tricky algorithm.

vernal gazelle Jul 30, 2019, 4:50 PM

#

its more of a visual appeal thing then a problem per-say

polar kelp Jul 30, 2019, 4:50 PM

#

If you use things like auto-entities or monster card it won't work.

vernal gazelle Jul 30, 2019, 4:51 PM

#

that is the reason 😃

polar kelp Jul 30, 2019, 4:51 PM

#

Basically it goes through your ui_lovelace.yaml (if applicable) and looks for any entity: or entities:, and removes them.

#

With auto-entities there's no way for it to know what's in the interface and what's not. And even if it did, how would it react to dynamic changes?

#

TL;DR: Unused Entities is "broken" and should/will probably be replaced with something else at some point.

vernal gazelle Jul 30, 2019, 4:54 PM

#

so forgive my ignorance - still gathering my understanding of everything.. .but basically anything that is not a core card, and is a custom card will essentially leave the entity in unused state basically?

polar kelp Jul 30, 2019, 4:54 PM

#

If the custom card has a list of entities: or an entity: option, it will probably be removed.

vernal gazelle Jul 30, 2019, 4:55 PM

#

  - type: custom:layout-card
    layout: horizontal
    column: 2
    cards:
      - type: custom:card-modder
        card:
          type: plant-status
          name: Orchid
          entity: plant.orchid
        style:
        "--google-red-500": 'green'

polar kelp Jul 30, 2019, 4:55 PM

#

However, if your card is wrapped in something that isn't a core stack it won't be.

#

In that case, it's the layout-card

#

The algorithm can't step into it to keep looking for cards/entities.

#

I think. It's been a while since I dug through that part of the code.

vernal gazelle Jul 30, 2019, 4:56 PM

#

nope that's good enough for me makes partial sense.. ha

#

thanks @polar kelp

How do I set lovelace UI as the default. When load my "Overview" it's completely different

split granite Jul 30, 2019, 6:39 PM

#

Go to the Information panel, and select Set Lovelace as default page...

vapid field Jul 30, 2019, 6:40 PM

#

I don't see the information panel. only a "?" mark at the top right corner and the option to go to "raw editor"

Do you see Developer Tools?

yes. Here is how I get to Lovelace UI. Developper Tool > Info > Go to the Love Lace UI

split granite Jul 30, 2019, 6:49 PM

Now read the rest of that page, there's one that says "Set ... as default page"

only thing I see is "remove state as default page"

split granite Jul 30, 2019, 6:50 PM

Hit that then

(they've changed the wording since the version I run clearly)

vapid field Jul 30, 2019, 6:53 PM

#

I hit it and when I go to Overview it still doesn't show my love lace UI 😦 only thing different is now it says "Set states as default page on this device" plus the link changes to the "Go to the States UI".

What's the URL - does it have /states or /lovelace?

vapid field Jul 30, 2019, 6:55 PM

cedar hedge Jul 30, 2019, 8:46 PM

I've heard in the forum that there has been discussions about this but I thought I'd throw my voice into the mix. And remember I've got no idea what has or hasn't been discussed so I apologize if this is old news. I think the whole "notification" system has gone off the rails in the last couple of modifications to that functionality. The first mod a few releases back changed the way the notifications worked by removing the automatic pop-up and changing the appearance by superimposing it over the little bell icon. that sucked as a notification but at least it was a different color than everything else (accent-color). And because it was a different theme element it allowed us to theme the notifier to our desired color. Now with the latest change the notification icon is hidden at the bottom left corner of the screen and, what's worse, is that it uses the primary-color for it's theme style so there is literally no way to modify it so that it stands out and acts as a true "notification". If you can't notice it then it's not a very good notification. Then today I see that on my android phone with the side-menu closed the notification bell and "notifying" indicator is completely hidden from view. You have to open the side menu then it shows up, but again, it's still in the same non-descript color as the rest of the main page. In that case it really is completely and totally useless as a notification tool. I captured a small video of what I'm talking about if anyone needs me to post it somewhere.

#

This situation needs to be resolved. At a sheer absolute minimum it should be moved back to being separately themed so we can change the color so it contrasts with any theme we use. And on mobile at least moving it back to being superimposed over the hamburger menu would be the minimum acceptable. Even better would be to make it a real notification component like it was before lovelace and have the notifications pop-up on every page you navigate to until the notification is dismissed.

solar pecan Jul 30, 2019, 8:48 PM

#

Can I ask a butt-in (but slightly related q)? If in that example I wanted to plot the difference between the two temps is ther an easy way? (Yeah, I know I could create a new sensor, but was wondering if a "difference" syntax was possible in an entity definition.)

hi, i'm working on a card to open/close garage doors, and i want to have a button that will pop open a stream of the camera if you click on it so you can see if the door is moving/open/closed. any ideas if that's possible?

split granite Jul 30, 2019, 8:49 PM

#

@cedar hedge Best answer is to submit a PR for that. Alternatively raise a feature request on the forum

shell geyser Jul 30, 2019, 8:50 PM

#

https://i.imgur.com/kSb5RJm.png

#

i'm using a glance card

split granite Jul 30, 2019, 8:51 PM

#

Camera streams would do that - and you should be able to handle that with a tap action

#

Somebody did a custom card that opens another card on tap

shell geyser Jul 30, 2019, 8:51 PM

#

i'm not sure what to call for the action of tap_action

split granite Jul 30, 2019, 8:52 PM

You'd need that custom card - I don't remember what it is, just that it was discussed relatively recently (last month or so)

#

It might be findable by searching here, or in the forum

shell geyser Jul 30, 2019, 8:52 PM

#

ok thanks i'll search

cedar hedge Jul 30, 2019, 9:25 PM

#

I thought the common wisdom was that to get things resolved (or at least noticed) it was better to raise an issue here and discuss it. I submitted an issue a week ago and it hasn't been touched (https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant-polymer/issues/3414). If I knew how to fix the code to make it work the way I want I would gladly submit it but I have no idea how to do that kind of coding. And in my experience it doesn't seem like posting things as a feature request on the forum does much good but I guess I'll give it a try.

polar kelp Jul 30, 2019, 9:30 PM

#

There's lots to do and little time. Unfortunately, the louder people usually get their wish sooner...

#

OTOH, the problems with more people affected tend to be resolved faster as well, for the same reason.

dense thicket Jul 30, 2019, 11:56 PM

Is there a way to make a card that contains all of a type of something? I.e. I'd like to be able to have a card on a tab that lists all my automations individually.

I have a fuel price sensor that doesn't exist if the store is out of that fuel type and I then get an error in lovelace (the yellow entity does not exist) Is there a way to ignore a non-existant sensor?

errant plover Jul 31, 2019, 1:52 AM

#

OR if you want to do it automatically, https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-auto-entities

timid burrow Jul 31, 2019, 1:53 AM

#

auto-entities is where it's at

errant plover Jul 31, 2019, 1:56 AM

#

David, can you use https://github.com/gadgetchnnel/lovelace-card-templater to prevent it from displaying if undefined?

timid burrow Jul 31, 2019, 1:57 AM

#

I don't think so... The entity doesn't exist is the issue. The custom component doesn't create the sensor if the fuel type isn't available. If it came up with a state of undefined it's easy

gray kernel Jul 31, 2019, 2:13 AM

#

well since {{ states('sensor.does_not_exist') }} gives unknown you can try checking that

cedar hedge Jul 31, 2019, 2:17 AM

#

@polar kelp I think that last comment above about having little time was directed to me so I'll answer accordingly (apologies if not)... I would think that the (self-inflicted) problems that have been introduced to the notification system would literally affect almost every HA user at least at some point in time. I'm not sure how many more people could need to be affected before it's a priority.

ember crow Jul 31, 2019, 2:25 AM

#

I guess it depends on how people use notifications, I don't I get it to send me a push notification. I rarely use the gui notifications

timid burrow Jul 31, 2019, 2:38 AM

#

@gray kernel I think that will work.

latent moss Jul 31, 2019, 2:42 AM

#

@cedar hedge i don't think his comment was aimed at you. There's tons of issues like the one you posted, most of which have gone untouched for way longer than a week... Unfortunately there's simply not many contributors to the frontend. I do agree the change in notification badge color hinders visibility a bit, but it also still works so it's probably not a huge priority 🤷

latent moss Jul 31, 2019, 4:00 AM

#

@cedar hedge submitted a PR to fix it here https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant-polymer/pull/3442

timid burrow Jul 31, 2019, 4:13 AM

#

so @gray kernel @errant plover A template sensor worked for it. It was actually an issue with the NSW Fuel peope changing the name of the sensor anyway as it turns out but a template sensor will deal with outages as well in the future.

atomic glacier Jul 31, 2019, 10:24 PM

#

I use decluttering_templates in my scripted browser-mod popups and the anchors are located in my main ui-lovelace.yaml. The only way that I could find to use anchors and keep from repeating so much styling code. @mild veldt @ornate mason
Can anchors be located in scripts.yaml? Never tried🤔

#

@muted mulch https://community.home-assistant.io/t/entity-icon-color-custom-icon-color-based-on-state-customise-icon-color/102789 best shot is probably custom-button-card or something similar

ornate mason Jul 31, 2019, 11:23 PM

#

lol, decluttering_templates does not like having its cards included. There seems to be some heavy caching going on.

ornate mason Aug 1, 2019, 12:38 AM

#

So, it's because included files aren't live reloaded. They require HA restart to reload... That's a bit annoying...

latent moss Aug 1, 2019, 12:44 AM

#

@ornate mason you can press Refresh from the 3 dots menu to reload included lovelace files

#

not sure about with decluttering_template tho as i haven't used that (yet)

ornate mason Aug 1, 2019, 1:25 AM

#

@latent moss oh. I thought a full refresh (cmd+shift+r) would be enough.

#

Works. Thanks. The decluttering issue was the same thing.

muted mulch Aug 1, 2019, 4:48 AM

#

@atomic glacier Thank you for the reply, but I need to do it in stock HA (stock Lovelace without Custom-UI).... can this be possible?

polar kelp Aug 1, 2019, 7:08 AM

#

@muted mulch https://github.com/thomasloven/hass-config/wiki/Lovelace-Plugins

muted mulch Aug 1, 2019, 11:05 AM

#

@polar kelp Thank you, so it's really necessary to add a plugin for a custom icon color?

timid burrow Aug 1, 2019, 11:21 AM

#

@muted mulch there is a custom button card you can use as well.

atomic glacier Aug 1, 2019, 11:30 AM

#

@muted mulch maybe here: https://community.home-assistant.io/t/global-customize-icon-color-for-state-sensors-dont-work/78427/5?u=mariusthvdb

polar kelp Aug 1, 2019, 11:56 AM

#

NB That’s custom-ui

mild veldt Aug 1, 2019, 2:59 PM

#

@muted mulch why do you have to use core Lovelace only, exactly?

tiny trellis Aug 1, 2019, 6:09 PM

#

Does anyone know of a panel_custom that is set up to place sensors and switches on?

ornate mason Aug 1, 2019, 6:19 PM

#

@atomic glacier If you're interested, here's how I ended up solving splitting my ui-lovelace config up: https://github.com/DarkFox/ha-config/commit/e3d7b2009a8328e48592b2121d4c7cff2cff35c7

#

tl;dr: Anchors that were just reused cards ended up in the cards folder to be directly included. Anchors that were used as templates became decluttering templates.

tiny trellis Aug 1, 2019, 6:28 PM

#

@ornate mason I really like what you did there but I am trying to set either views or admin panels to keep the gf from doing stuff she shouldn't be

ornate mason Aug 1, 2019, 6:29 PM

#

@tiny trellis Sorry, it wasn't related to your question. I was following up on a conversation with DinoTech from last night.

tiny trellis Aug 1, 2019, 6:30 PM

#

Ahh my bad

#

Still that is an awesome config. May be cleaning mine up like that some

ornate mason Aug 1, 2019, 6:30 PM

#

However, I think what you might be looking for is compact-custom-header: https://github.com/maykar/compact-custom-header

#

It allows you to restrict certain users/browsers to specific views, and hide the sidebar, etc.

atomic glacier Aug 1, 2019, 7:35 PM

#

@tiny trellis best way I've found for restricting access: https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-state-switch IMO

#

@ornate mason I've been testing this out on my dev setup https://github.com/thomasloven/homeassistant-lovelace-gen seems like this is going to ne my route for my main

#

@atomic glacier Have you done anything with getting a persistent notification to show up in a popup ?

vernal gazelle Aug 1, 2019, 7:40 PM

#

how I wish we could use the UI and the YAML config together.. some times I just want to drag cards around..lol

atomic glacier Aug 1, 2019, 7:40 PM

#

I haven't really had a need, but I've seen something like that I believe 🤔 I'll look @faint echo

faint echo Aug 1, 2019, 7:41 PM

#

I have an nws alert sensor for weather alerts, thought it would be nice to have it popup using browser_mod? instead of going to the notification section

#

I am thinking it will work too but wondered if you had tried it

atomic glacier Aug 1, 2019, 7:44 PM

#

I believe all you need to do is extract the info from the sensor and then stuff it in a popup, (that is the easy part, LOL). I have that several times in my setup

muted mulch Aug 1, 2019, 7:44 PM

#

@mild veldt sorry for the late reply, I'd like to use the lowest resurces as possible because I'm on a raspberry (battery powered) in 4G network

faint echo Aug 1, 2019, 7:46 PM

#

I've gotten a lot of great ideas from you ui setup thanks for sharing your work. I'll play around with with it but I am sure I can come up with something. I know that the sensor info can get very lengthy sometimes

tiny trellis Aug 1, 2019, 8:08 PM

@ornate mason worked great. Thanks

Hey guys ive just been lookin at lovelace-state-switch and have an idea. Is it possible to change which /view/ is shown to a user, based on entity states?

polar kelp Aug 1, 2019, 9:50 PM

#

Not that I know of.

thin sage Aug 1, 2019, 9:50 PM

#

For example when im away, i want my security camera tab to be the default. When the tv is playing something, i want the media tab to be the default

#

Damn.. That would be really cool 🤔

polar kelp Aug 1, 2019, 9:57 PM

#

State-switch and layout-card lets you pretty much emulate the same thing, though.

#

Or you could use browser_mod to make all currently open browsers navigate to the right view

#

Actually, I guess you could make an automation to do it with browser_mod. Whenever a browser connects (known or unknown), if it's viewing /lovelace/0, make it navigate to /lovelace/whatever instead...

#

Then you can remove the first view from the header bar using custom-compact-header and use it only as a landing for automatic renavigation...

thin sage Aug 1, 2019, 10:22 PM

#

Thats awesome thanks. I will check out browser_mod

#

Browser mod looks cool 👌

sinful scarab Aug 1, 2019, 11:13 PM

hi everyone...

#

I have a z-wave lock that change icon if it's locked (mdi:lock) or unlocked (mdi-lock-open). I wonder if it's possible to change color of the lock. when it's locked (mdi:locked) that the icon is green and when the unlocked icon (mdi-lock-open) I would like the color to be red. I'm not sure how to do that, anyone who have some example of how it could look like?

vernal gazelle Aug 2, 2019, 1:18 AM

@sinful scarab I use custom card modder, for example

Also I tried with media_extractor to connect with mini-media-player-card through my chromecast and nothing. but when I send JSON though service page, I am getting music (youtube playlist for example)

Do we have a map card or something similar to show line or points history on map from device_tracker/person moving?

@remote mango yes, check the docs

@mild veldt how, where???

mild veldt Aug 2, 2019, 12:51 PM

Ah, I misread

#

History of device points, no. Haven't seen that

You could get the places component and then a history graph would show history of places

lilac robin Aug 2, 2019, 2:28 PM

#

I get mapping values are not allowed here trying to implement the spotify-playlist sensor (https://github.com/dnguyen800/spotify-playlist-sensor).
I've created a new app at the spotify dev section and used it's id and secret in the configuration.yaml for the playlist sensor.

#

Any ideas?

errant plover Aug 2, 2019, 2:30 PM

#

That error genrally means your indentation is wrong.

lilac robin Aug 2, 2019, 2:34 PM

#

That was it. Thank you 😃

lilac robin Aug 2, 2019, 3:21 PM

#

If a plugin tells me to add this and that to ui-lovelace.yaml, I'm guessing that plugin is quite old?
"When installed, this will be located in '.homeassistant/www/community/spotify-playlist-card', you still need to add it to your lovelace configuration ('ui-lovelace.yaml' or the raw UI config editor)."

#

Can I still add it to the raw UI config editor?

split granite Aug 2, 2019, 3:23 PM

#

Yes

small pike Aug 2, 2019, 3:25 PM

#

@lilac robin yes it can still be added in the Raw UI config that card works pretty well too and is updated every so often to fix minor bugs so it is still good to use

lilac robin Aug 2, 2019, 3:28 PM

#

Sorry but where would I add it? Top? Bottom?

Unable to parse YAML: YAMLException: end of the stream or a document separator is expected at line 46, column 1:
    - url: /community_plugin/spotify ... 
    ^```
I got that when I slapped it to the bottom of file.

#

Oh I see, I gotta add resources:

small pike Aug 2, 2019, 3:32 PM

#

Sorry yeah I was just going to mention that

#

I just realize there are actually two different spotify playlist cards now which one are you using? can you link me to it?

lilac robin Aug 2, 2019, 3:34 PM

#

https://github.com/dnguyen800/spotify-playlist-sensor
https://github.com/dnguyen800/spotify-playlist-card

small pike Aug 2, 2019, 3:37 PM

#

Ah yeah! If you saw in the card readme you will see the other card and the dev mentions that the other one is less "hacky" than his and works a little better

#

https://github.com/custom-cards/spotify-card

lilac robin Aug 2, 2019, 3:39 PM

#

Yeah I saw, I figured I could try them both anyway 😃 I got everything to show but nothing happens clicking the thumbnails. I suppose I'll just give the other repo a shot

small pike Aug 2, 2019, 3:41 PM

#

I haven't tried that one but I know the one I posted did take some tinkering with the setup to make sure I did it right. Do you have spotify premium? I only thing this works with that

timid wigeon Aug 2, 2019, 3:44 PM

#

any way to display daily on the weather card but when you click the day it's hourly?

lilac robin Aug 2, 2019, 3:46 PM

#

@small pike Of course I have spotify premium. Every swede does, it's mandatory

small pike Aug 2, 2019, 3:48 PM

#

Lol that's funny! but yeah the spotcast is kind of finicky in my experience

mild veldt Aug 2, 2019, 3:56 PM

#

@timid wigeon yes, use browser_mod to make your own popup and you can either use another hourly sensor or, as I do, shown an iframe of Windy with forecast hourly showing

timid wigeon Aug 2, 2019, 3:56 PM

#

ah cool thanks @mild veldt

mild veldt Aug 2, 2019, 3:58 PM

#

https://gist.github.com/iantrich/f32441c48ed2b9591ab3eddd334d9b10
I actually have it in a swipe card so I can swipe over to the hourly and weekly forecast

#

I just have a button with the current weather showing, so everything is in the popup

#

lilac robin Aug 2, 2019, 4:01 PM

@small pike with that other card I get; INVALID_CLIENT: Invalid redirect URI ¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

@mild veldt That's awesome. I'm going to use this!

@lilac robin did you setup the spotify api right?

@lilac robin are you using snapcast as well?

lilac robin Aug 2, 2019, 4:07 PM

ive no idea what snapcast is 🤔

small pike Aug 2, 2019, 4:09 PM

#

lol I take you are just trying to play spotify on one of your devices?

lilac robin Aug 2, 2019, 4:09 PM

#

im just trying to set this up on my pc for now

small pike Aug 2, 2019, 4:10 PM

snapcast is like a media server

lilac robin Aug 2, 2019, 4:10 PM

#

oh i see, sonos DIY

small pike Aug 2, 2019, 4:10 PM

#

try just doing a service call with the spotify component and not through the card

#

and basically

lilac robin Aug 2, 2019, 4:20 PM

#

Sorry, I don't know what that means.

vapid field Aug 2, 2019, 4:20 PM

#

Simple question, sorry if it's obvious, do I need to add a lovelace: key in my configuration.yaml to use a custom card? I so far have created a ui-lovelace.yaml and a configuration/www/simple-thermostat.js

split granite Aug 2, 2019, 4:21 PM

#

Only if you're using YAML mode

#

But then everything is done with YAML

vapid field Aug 2, 2019, 4:21 PM

#

Yea I don't want that

split granite Aug 2, 2019, 4:21 PM

#

Then use the raw editor

vapid field Aug 2, 2019, 4:22 PM

#

Yea, so I've got that far... and it still doesn't see the card. Custom element doesn't exist: simple-thermostat.

#

does /local just end up referring to files in configuration/www ?

split granite Aug 2, 2019, 4:23 PM

#

Yes

vapid field Aug 2, 2019, 4:25 PM

#

Does it matter that this is type: module instead of type: js we think? https://github.com/nervetattoo/simple-thermostat

#

lovelace knows to look for ui-lovelace.yaml by default in /home/homeassistant/.homeassistant?

#

(virtualenv)

split granite Aug 2, 2019, 4:26 PM

#

HA knows to look in your configuration folder

vapid field Aug 2, 2019, 4:26 PM

#

oh so maybe I should flatten that configuration folder?

split granite Aug 2, 2019, 4:26 PM

#

And you have to use the type that the card says to use 😉

#

Why?

#

You're looking for problems that don't exist

vapid field Aug 2, 2019, 4:27 PM

#

I mean there's a bunch of magic going on with where it's sourcing that is incongruent with the normal way I split up configuration.

small pike Aug 2, 2019, 4:28 PM

#

@lilac robin Go to developer tools then services

vapid field Aug 2, 2019, 4:28 PM

#

I do need to flatten I think and just make a www dir

split granite Aug 2, 2019, 4:29 PM

#

Well, if you don't put that file in www/ then it won't find it

vapid field Aug 2, 2019, 4:29 PM

#

yea but I was confused as to whether I had to make a configuration folder literally or if that implied /home/homeassistant/.homeassistant (or in other words the same folder as configuration.yaml)

split granite Aug 2, 2019, 4:31 PM

#

No, there's no configuration/ folder

vapid field Aug 2, 2019, 4:31 PM

#

well, local/simple-thermostat.js is accessible via https://myhomething.tld/local/simple-thermostat.js so that's good.

You are on the same network right?

#

and not using the remote access?

lilac robin Aug 2, 2019, 4:49 PM

#

Not using remote access

small pike Aug 2, 2019, 4:50 PM

#

hm... I had this same issue and it took me forever to figure out but I can't remember what finally fixed it

lilac robin Aug 2, 2019, 4:50 PM

#

My internal ip is 192.168.0.38, so that's what I added to the spotify dev page

small pike Aug 2, 2019, 4:50 PM

#

I'll think of it in a minute just can't remember right now

#

not sure if this is what I did but open HA in an incognito window so you are logged out everything and no cookies to mess stuff up and then try to authenticate

lilac robin Aug 2, 2019, 4:56 PM

#

Same thing :/

#

I tried to create a new app at the spotify dev page, same thing happens...

small pike Aug 2, 2019, 4:58 PM

#

remove the new app but in the original one add another redirect uri to be http://hassio.local:8123/lovelace/[name of tab card is on]

lilac robin Aug 2, 2019, 5:03 PM

#

http://hassio.local:8123/lovelace/home - same thing :/

#

Am I not supposed to use the Client Secret somewhere?

small pike Aug 2, 2019, 5:07 PM

#

Other than just the config then no

#

Try the page number instead of name, they start with 0 then 1, 2, etc

Hello all, I'm new on this discord channel. I encounter an issue since my last upgrade of HA, from 0.94 to 0.96.5... The position of all my covers seems to be inverted, previously Open state was for 0% and Closed to 100%, since upgrade it is inverted and it annoys me a lot because I made a lot of config to display images depending on the open closed state. Am I the only one in this state ?

split granite Aug 2, 2019, 5:22 PM

#

#330944238910963714 would be where to ask about that, since it's not about the display, but about the state

What custom-ui are you referring to @steep lagoon ? There's been various things tagged that, including ones for the pre-Lovelace UI

steep lagoon Aug 2, 2019, 5:48 PM

#

@split granite https://github.com/andrey-git/home-assistant-custom-ui -- guess that naming is confusing 😃

lilac robin Aug 2, 2019, 5:50 PM

#

But Spotify works with this @small pike.

type: media-control
entity: media_player.spotify

#

I just cannot get that custom card to show playlists.

mild veldt Aug 2, 2019, 5:50 PM

#

TIL people still use custom-ui

split granite Aug 2, 2019, 5:50 PM

#

Yeah...

mild veldt Aug 2, 2019, 5:51 PM

#

Fortunately this is the lovelace chat, not custom-ui 😜

split granite Aug 2, 2019, 5:51 PM

#

I'd hit up https://community.home-assistant.io/t/customui-discussion-thread/48694 @steep lagoon - where the GitHub repo directs you

steep lagoon Aug 2, 2019, 5:51 PM

#

can lovelace natively do templating for icon and icon color changes?

mild veldt Aug 2, 2019, 5:51 PM

#

just joking @steep lagoon , but probably not going to be able to help here

split granite Aug 2, 2019, 5:52 PM

#

The stock cards can't

#

But custom cards... can do anything

mild veldt Aug 2, 2019, 5:52 PM

#

@steep lagoon card_mod is a popular method for lovelace customization

steep lagoon Aug 2, 2019, 5:54 PM

#

@mild veldt : thanks. if custom-ui isn't that popular I should be working on what most people are using

mild veldt Aug 2, 2019, 5:54 PM

#

I can't say that for sure, but we don't get questions about it in here that often

small pike Aug 2, 2019, 5:55 PM

#

@lilac robin yeah that might work because you aren't logging into spotify but the card works by logging into spotify then displaying what is basically a slimmed down part of the app

#

the spotify configuration is just using the api but the card is using the api and an authenticated user to work

#

So the best option you probably have is to use the mini media play (https://github.com/kalkih/mini-media-player) and add buttons for the playlists

#

it's a but more work but it should do the trick

#

I have that running for myself and can actually provide more help on that

lilac robin Aug 2, 2019, 6:55 PM

#

That makes sense. Thanks for the explanation @small pike. Would you mind sharing a picture of how your playlists look with that?

vernal gazelle Aug 2, 2019, 6:56 PM

#

hey @mild veldt that weather card you did with the browser_mod, is the look and feel of that because of the browser_mod or was that a lovelace edit/config/code

small pike Aug 2, 2019, 6:57 PM

#

@lilac robin they look like the buttons on this screenshot, you can customize it to how you like

mild veldt Aug 2, 2019, 6:57 PM

#

@vernal gazelle that's the button-card

small pike Aug 2, 2019, 6:57 PM

#

icons or text or both, along with the number of buttons per row

vernal gazelle Aug 2, 2019, 6:58 PM

#

ah, have not used it yet.. its pretty slick.. will check it out.. mine is massive lol

Ty... ill check it out...

lilac robin Aug 2, 2019, 7:09 PM

#

Thanks @small pike, looks like this'll do just fine. I love the way the multiroom speakers are shown

vapid field Aug 2, 2019, 7:10 PM

#

Any other suggestions on getting custom cards to work... I have ui-lovelace.yaml with url: /community_plugin/simple-thermostat/simple-thermostat.js\ntype: module this time using HACS still no luck

small pike Aug 2, 2019, 7:10 PM

#

Yeah they don't work with all multiroom speaker systems though like chromecast audio but work with sonos great apparently

#

@vapid field are those two lines at the top of lovelace.yaml file under resources:

vapid field Aug 2, 2019, 7:12 PM

#

nope missed the resources

#

thank you

is it possible to create a history graph of the Artist played on google minis? I like to see the crap that gets listened to around here..:)

lilac robin Aug 2, 2019, 8:03 PM

#

How do I load additional themes from a single file? I've added

  themes: !include themes.yaml``` to configuration.yaml, but it doesn't seem to work.

mild veldt Aug 2, 2019, 8:13 PM

#

you would have to create a template sensor for each mini

#

luckily there's a really easy template sensor component now https://github.com/custom-components/templatesensor

icy flax Aug 2, 2019, 8:19 PM

#

Help!
I accidentaly took control over the UI and now I can't seem to go back, what to do=

#

?

mild veldt Aug 2, 2019, 8:28 PM

#

delete ./storage/lovelace if you want to go back to auto mode and restart

vernal gazelle Aug 2, 2019, 8:28 PM

#

@mild veldt why not both 😦 lol

mild veldt Aug 2, 2019, 8:29 PM

#

?

vernal gazelle Aug 2, 2019, 8:29 PM

#

I use yaml.. but you know once in a while I just want to move some thing around via gui haha

mild veldt Aug 2, 2019, 8:30 PM

#

requires a restart to switch between any lovelace mode

vernal gazelle Aug 2, 2019, 8:30 PM

#

meh.. I like yaml anyway

slender temple Aug 2, 2019, 9:05 PM

#

hi @all. I've discovered this beautiful thing: https://github.com/kalkih/mini-graph-card - but - it says it needs mini-graph-lib.js - which I can't find. any ideas? I've googled it, but both plugins that mention it just say it's needed, not where to find it.

vernal gazelle Aug 2, 2019, 9:08 PM

#

When attempting to change an MDI icon based on state of a binary_sensor is that in the cuztomize yaml or directly in lovelace?

split granite Aug 2, 2019, 9:12 PM

#

@slender temple Maybe worth asking at https://community.home-assistant.io/t/lovelace-mini-graph-card/71385/649

vernal gazelle Aug 2, 2019, 9:12 PM

#

assuming customize after reading

#

😃

slender temple Aug 2, 2019, 9:13 PM

#

@split granite ok thanks will do

mild veldt Aug 2, 2019, 9:13 PM

#

@slender temple the lib is part of the bundle

wheat current Aug 2, 2019, 9:14 PM

#

https://github.com/kalkih/mini-graph-card/releases on the release pages @slender temple
(or just use hacs 🙄 ) 🤣

slender temple Aug 2, 2019, 9:14 PM

i used hacs

mild veldt Aug 2, 2019, 9:14 PM

then you're all good

vernal gazelle Aug 2, 2019, 9:18 PM

#

this is my attempt at icon changes based off states

binary_sensor.fibaro_hallway_sensor_motion:
  template:
    icon: >
    if (state == 'off') 
      return 'mdi:walk';
    else if (state === 'on')
      return 'mdi:run';

not working... i borked it

#

any thoughts

#

except the second should be run..lol

vapid field Aug 2, 2019, 9:19 PM

#

same icons?

vernal gazelle Aug 2, 2019, 9:19 PM

#

yea.. noticed that, but icon doesnt change at all either way.. stays a default circle

#

jsut changed it in cuztomize yaml to run as well

mild veldt Aug 2, 2019, 9:22 PM

#

@vernal gazelle in what card?

vernal gazelle Aug 2, 2019, 9:23 PM

#

 - type: vertical-stack
    cards:              
      - type: entities

          - binary_sensor.fibaro_hallway_sensor_motion
          - binary_sensor.office_motion_motion

#

i probably did it wrong..lol

mild veldt Aug 2, 2019, 9:24 PM

#

I wouldn't recommend using customize for that. Try out this card I made https://github.com/custom-cards/config-template-card

vernal gazelle Aug 2, 2019, 9:25 PM

#

is it in HACS 😛

slender temple Aug 2, 2019, 9:25 PM

#

thanks @wheat current my card is working now

vernal gazelle Aug 2, 2019, 9:26 PM

#

actually it is.. ha

mild veldt Aug 2, 2019, 9:27 PM

#

yes, it is. all my cards are in the custom-cards repo

type: 'custom:config-template-card'
variables:
  - binary_sensor.fibaro_hallway_sensor_motion
entities:
  - binary_sensor.fibaro_hallway_sensor_motion
card:
  type: entities
  entities:
    - entity: "${vars[0]}"
      icon: "${states[vars[0]] === 'off' ? 'mdi:walk' : 'mdi:run' }"

vernal gazelle Aug 2, 2019, 9:32 PM

#

cool will give it a shot

#

@mild veldt so is "${vars[0]}" related to the binary sensor is this example? Just trying to understand

mild veldt Aug 2, 2019, 9:44 PM

#

yes, just noticed an error and correct it though

#

someone made an iteration on mine which might be easier to understand https://github.com/gadgetchnnel/lovelace-card-templater

vernal gazelle Aug 2, 2019, 9:50 PM

#

thansk will do some reading

steep lagoon Aug 3, 2019, 12:01 AM

#

@vernal gazelle : your previous customize code looks like custom-ui.

vernal gazelle Aug 3, 2019, 3:19 AM

#

@mild veldt just got around to adding that to my UI but no card pops up...

#

that goes directly into the Lovelace UI I presume?

mild veldt Aug 3, 2019, 3:22 AM

#

yes after you have installed it. errors in the console?

vernal gazelle Aug 3, 2019, 3:23 AM

#

nothing

#

tyring to understand your github example ... wouldn't variables (Forgive me if im wrong) be

states['binary_sensor.fibaro_hallway_sensor_motion'].state

if we are looking for an icon change based on sensor state?

mild veldt Aug 3, 2019, 3:34 AM

#

hold on, it's been like 6 months since I tried using this monster I made...

vernal gazelle Aug 3, 2019, 3:34 AM

#

month and half maybe

try this

#

indentation was off, fixed now

#

that should work, just tested

vernal gazelle Aug 3, 2019, 3:38 AM

#

it did... 😃

#

I was strating to hack it together.. still was a bit off.. but I was starting to understand... this is what I had

    entities:
      - binary_sensor.fibaro_hallway_sensor_motion

Oh, and THIS IS NOT IRC - don't tag folks every time you reply

prime umbra Aug 3, 2019, 10:52 AM

im guessing by tabs you talking about views?, if so you can use browser_mod to change view by then using a automation

Yesterday I had a hoorible experience with HA / Lovelace, after been configuring all my hubs I vare happy about the result, then I installed the MQTT Broker, after that the overviewscreen was messed up

#

then I was thinking, ah no problem use the snapshot do get it back the way it was, but no

#

I can't totally exclude the possibility that the problem is my Rasberry or my sd card

I'm using a sensor card to show air pressure. Can I provide hard limits, or soft suggestions, on the graphs lower and upper limits? This is todays graph, which is a soft curve fitted onto values the values 993 hPa and 994 hPA. It looks very dramatic, and I would like to look less like a dramatic rollercoaster, and more like the boring cloudy day it is. https://www.dropbox.com/s/zsz1uv8npfg3tq1/sensor-pressure.PNG?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/sh/4oht0rqly4b8p3d/AAC-7S36OIenbAbJ4kGgg7IJa?dl=0

Anybody else experienced slider-entity-row failing in panel mode?

polar kelp Aug 3, 2019, 6:07 PM

#

What does failing mean?

#

And are you perhaps using a very old version?

mild veldt Aug 3, 2019, 6:09 PM

#

@vapid field I don't know much about Alexa but if you can get Alexa to send an event into HA you can use browser_mod to switch tabs

#

NVM, @prime umbra already said that 😜

lilac robin Aug 3, 2019, 6:13 PM

#

@polar kelp I'm sure I've fucked up somehow.

  - entity: light.living_room0
    name: Taklampa

    type: 'custom:slider-entity-row'
  - entity: light.living_room1
    name: Golvlampa

    type: 'custom:slider-entity-row'
  - entity: light.living_room2
    name: Fönsterlampa
    toggle: true
    type: 'custom:slider-entity-row'
title: Vardagsrum
type: entities```
I have these for each of my rooms on the same tab. They display fine when they're next to each other. When I enable Panel Mode, only the first one appears, and the rest are hidden away somehow.

#

I downloaded it through HACS by the way.

polar kelp Aug 3, 2019, 6:23 PM

#

Are you sure that's the card you're seeing when in panel mode?

lilac robin Aug 3, 2019, 6:29 PM

#

Yes

mild veldt Aug 3, 2019, 6:32 PM

#

@lilac robin panel mode only shows the first card

#

You need to put it in a stack if you want to show more than one

#

Ahhhh. lol

#

Thank you 😃

@polar kelp you pointed me to browser_mod the other day to redirect clients to another view based on states. Do you know how i can redirect clients as they connect? Rather than redirecting only the ones already connected?

@thin sage you’d need an automation that triggers when a device goes from unavailable to available, and then run the navigate command on it.

#

I haven’t tried it myself, but I immagine it could work.

Is it possible to still edit the UI from the webUI once we set the yaml mode to on ?

vernal gazelle Aug 4, 2019, 7:57 PM

#

no

#

its one or the other

grim compass Aug 4, 2019, 8:05 PM

#

alright thanks

#

is it possible to split it ?

vernal gazelle Aug 4, 2019, 8:06 PM

#

you mean half UI and half yaml?

split granite Aug 4, 2019, 8:06 PM

#

No

#

It's either all UI, or all YAML

grim compass Aug 4, 2019, 8:13 PM

#

no i means split as 1 fil per page or tab

#

like the configuration.yaml

split granite Aug 4, 2019, 8:15 PM

#

Yes

#

That's exactly what I do - https://github.com/DubhAd/Home-AssistantConfig/blob/master/ui-lovelace.yaml

vernal gazelle Aug 4, 2019, 8:16 PM

me too 😃

#

@split granite do you have to use the monsters card for Automations for lovelace?

split granite Aug 4, 2019, 8:17 PM

#

Have to?

#

No

#

You never have to use it

Whether you want to... that's a personal choice

Anywya to make it dynamic ?

What?

#

Today is clearly the day for vague questions 😛

grim compass Aug 4, 2019, 8:23 PM

#

like using dir_merge_list

split granite Aug 4, 2019, 8:24 PM

#

Sure, but you'll need to name the files so that they come in the order you want

#

I'd suggest you start them all with a three digit number, like 001_overview.yaml and so on

grim compass Aug 4, 2019, 8:24 PM

#

yup that's was i was thinking to do

split granite Aug 4, 2019, 8:24 PM

#

Then you can leave nice big gaps in the early days, and fill them in

grim compass Aug 4, 2019, 8:24 PM

#

2 digits should be enough

Home is over on the top left

hello everyone, probably a noob question... but I have ideas just not sure how to make them happen. I have a light switch that I would like to link several configuration options for. I know how to setup what I want to do in Node Red but I am not quite sure how to handle it in lovelace. I want a regular entity for a light switch however when I click it i want it to go to a different screen that has all the switch options (a few different sets of time on and time off options, timer time, etc.) Is this possible?

Out of curiosity anyone have good suggestion for media_payer cards? Do you just leave them as

      - entity: media_player.masons_bedroom
        type: media-control
      - entity: media_player.32_tcl_roku_tv
        type: media-control

or do you put them in any nice looiking cards?

@vernal gazelle I hide everything away in popups. My main interface is very simplistic

is that with the browser_mod?

im still working on it making decisions. http://bit.ly/2Zw4bY7 http://bit.ly/2yCCm4n

colors... layout.. can all change.. its more for the fun of it right now..

#

to get a basic understanding of some of the possibilities

lean bison Aug 5, 2019, 3:07 AM

#

@mild veldt that is what I am trying to do. Is there an easy way to edit or add pop up options for the basic switch entity? Right now when selected the default is just the switch state history. Can I add to that pop up?

mild veldt Aug 5, 2019, 3:09 AM

#

@lean bison yes; https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-popup-card for that one, as you can't define the tap-action and popup-card just intercepts the more-info event

#

@vernal gazelle browser_mod is what I use if able to set tap_action

#

otherwise, popup-card

can you incremtent the opacity via the paper-listbox-background-color: 'rgba(41, 41, 41, 0.3)' it doesnt seem to work but not sure if its me or not 😃

Hi all. I have the following in a custom card:

I have a doublevalue-card.js file in my homeassistant/www/ directory

I get "No card type found"

How do set up the card on the overview page
I have set up the life 360, local weather, and thermostat already. when i set up the Duke card i get a red box"

@atomic glacier Could it be that it follows the backend theme setting?

The one you set with the frontend.set_theme service.

polar kelp Aug 6, 2019, 6:10 AM

@atomic glacier Do you have the code for this popup available somewhere? https://community.home-assistant.io/t/browser-mod-turn-your-browser-into-a-controllable-device-and-a-media-player/123806/74

And could you try adding box-sizing: border-box to the popup style?

polar kelp Aug 6, 2019, 6:40 AM

It actually seems like it could be a browser problem related to rounding errors...

nice card @mild veldt

polar kelp Aug 6, 2019, 10:35 AM

It's mostly embeded in the js files.

#

https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant-polymer/blob/dev/src/panels/lovelace/hui-view.ts#L131-L142

lilac robin Aug 6, 2019, 10:46 AM

#

Thanks. Are the randomnumbers.chunk.js files just cached files? Searching for .column in the HA folder gave me quite a few hits...

polar kelp Aug 6, 2019, 10:47 AM

#

No. They're compiled and minified javascript.

#

The frontend is actually a separate component of Home Assistant, distributed as a python package (https://pypi.org/project/home-assistant-frontend/) and downloaded automatically like all components.

#

The source code for the frontend is a bit over 600 mb, but you wouldn't want to have that sent to your browser every time (or to your mobile interface over an Edge connection...), so it's compiled and minimized.

#

What you could do is put javascript document.querySelector("body > home-assistant").shadowRoot.querySelector("home-assistant-main").shadowRoot.querySelector("app-drawer-layout > partial-panel-resolver > ha-panel-lovelace").shadowRoot.querySelector("hui-root").shadowRoot.querySelector("#view > hui-view").shadowRoot.querySelector("#columns ").querySelectorAll("div").forEach((e) => e.style[style_you_want_to_set] = value_you_want_it_to_have);
or something like that into a js file, save that js file in your www/ directory and add it to your resources.

@polar kelp I'm without computer access for a few hours, but that code is in my script.yaml script.mobile_motion

polar kelp Aug 6, 2019, 12:22 PM

#

Ok. Quick workaround: Replace yaml width: 100% height: 100%
with yaml width: calc(100% - 6px) height: calc(100% - 6px)

#

The behavior of the browser is actually wrong in the opposite way you think. The border should be outside of the area delimited by width and height. So if it was correct, you should see the same "problem" on all four edges...

#

Adding box-sizing: border-box also fixes it in my tests.

awesome. I'll test and report when I get in. Thanks

faint echo Aug 6, 2019, 1:28 PM

#

Is it possible to combine multiple style anchors into a view? Meaning if one of my anchors has a number of style settings (i.e border color, font size etc) and the other anchors has a background setting can I combine them by calling the two anchors somehow? Purpose would be to vary a background on a card but use the same other settings for multiple cards.

polar kelp Aug 6, 2019, 2:15 PM

#

Sure. See my link above. yaml style: <<: *border_stuff <<: *background_stuff

does anchors works in storage mode?

@mild veldt the Duke card is listed under integrations. https://www.home-assistant.io/components/duke_energy/ I put the code into the yaml file

mild veldt Aug 6, 2019, 3:44 PM

#

@clear reef that's not a card though, that's just the integration to get the data. You previously said "when i setup the Duke card i get a red box". I guess I don't really know what that means then. What card were you trying to use, what did the error say? Any errors in the console, etc?

If you're using Home Assistant Cast, make sure to update to 97 b3 to not have to change your configuration to use Lovelace custom cards. Otherwise check the Cast FAQ for the right config.

polar kelp Aug 6, 2019, 5:27 PM

#

Neat! I just managed to turn lovelace-gen into a custom component that overrides the normal ui_lovelace.yaml processing code.

#

Just install it, add lovelace_gen: to your config, and then you can use jinja templates, automatic cache invalidation and include files with arguments in your lovelace yaml. Just hit refresh in lovelace to rerender. Set and forget.

Yeah, I can imagine. It's very complicated. I get mine looking just like I want to, then I add one card, and to put it where I want to put it, I always end up jacking up everything.

you can always just throw things in an entities card if you don't know. there are no hard and fast rules in the land of lovelace when it comes to what fits in what card

outside of that, the cards are somewhat more specialized

frigid mortar Aug 7, 2019, 9:14 AM

civic sedge Aug 7, 2019, 9:15 AM

okay im trying to follow this guide

#

is the raw editor basically just the ui-lovelace.yaml?

civic sedge Aug 7, 2019, 9:20 AM

#

that's good to copy

#

and yea - its stored as json in the .core folder

unreal wind Aug 7, 2019, 9:22 AM

#

because ive already added the atomic-calendar.js to my /www folder
and then i just added

resources:
  - url: /local/atomic_calendar.js
    type: module

to the raw config

civic sedge Aug 7, 2019, 9:22 AM

#

jup - just at the top or buttom

#

maybe also check out
https://github.com/custom-components/hacs

unreal wind Aug 7, 2019, 9:23 AM

#

so under the card configuration pop up will it show as something else?

civic sedge Aug 7, 2019, 9:23 AM

#

? sorry dont get ya

#

ah - nope you have to use the examples of the repo

unreal wind Aug 7, 2019, 9:24 AM

#

When you click the 3 dots and enter "configure UI" and click the +
hmm so what would i click? manual card?

civic sedge Aug 7, 2019, 9:25 AM

#

https://github.com/atomic7777/atomic_calendar#4-configuration-examples

unreal wind Aug 7, 2019, 9:26 AM

#

oh, so i would add all that example stuff after the "resources" declaration

civic sedge Aug 7, 2019, 9:28 AM

#

to use a custom card - it have to be loaded first

#

or rater the ability to get loaded bust be present first

#

entities:
  - calendar.kalendarz_dom
progressBar: true
title: null
type: 'custom:calendar-card'```
just change the name of your calender and it should run already

civic sedge Aug 7, 2019, 9:31 AM

#

#

civic sedge Aug 7, 2019, 9:31 AM

#

get rid of line 5-11

unreal wind Aug 7, 2019, 9:31 AM

#

so where does what you had go?

civic sedge Aug 7, 2019, 9:31 AM

#

then go out of your raw editor and add an manual card

unreal wind Aug 7, 2019, 9:32 AM

#

ooooooooh

#

hmm i tried to add it to the manual card, but it said no card type configured and now wont load

civic sedge Aug 7, 2019, 9:35 AM

#

regualy it wont let you save faulty cards 🤔

#

card type is type: 'custom:calendar-card'

#

ah 🤦

#

thats my config

#

type is - type: "custom:atomic-calendar"

unreal wind Aug 7, 2019, 9:36 AM

#

yeah i just copied one of the examples and changed the entity to mine

civic sedge Aug 7, 2019, 9:36 AM

#

just like in the Configuration examples

unreal wind Aug 7, 2019, 9:38 AM

#

          - type: "custom:atomic-calendar"
            title: "Calendar"
            entities:
            - entity: calendar.kalendarz_dom
              color: red
            - calendar.atomic7777
          blacklist: 'word1, word2'

so im just gonna copy this

civic sedge Aug 7, 2019, 9:39 AM

#

try ```
type: "custom:atomic-calendar"
title: "Calendar"
entities:

entity: calendar.kalendarz_dom```

unreal wind Aug 7, 2019, 9:39 AM

#

does the "custom:atomic-calendar" get nested inside the single quotes from
type: ' '

civic sedge Aug 7, 2019, 9:40 AM

#

shouldnt make problems but feel free to change

unreal wind Aug 7, 2019, 9:40 AM

#

Custom element doesn't exist: atomic-calendar.
{
  "type": "custom:atomic-calendar",
  "title": "Calendar",
  "entities": [
    {
      "entity": "calendar.jamesjones03.jj@gmail.com"
    }
  ]
}

civic sedge Aug 7, 2019, 9:40 AM

#

then the atomic calendar isnt loaded yet

unreal wind Aug 7, 2019, 9:41 AM

#

so just restart HA

civic sedge Aug 7, 2019, 9:41 AM

#

go back to the raw editor and check if the recurces is present - and check your www directory

unreal wind Aug 7, 2019, 9:42 AM

#

yes its present at the top

resources:
  - type: module
    url: /local/atomic_calendar.js

civic sedge Aug 7, 2019, 9:43 AM

#

unreal wind Aug 7, 2019, 9:43 AM

#

civic sedge Aug 7, 2019, 9:44 AM

#

unreal wind Aug 7, 2019, 9:44 AM

#

civic sedge Aug 7, 2019, 10:04 AM

unreal wind Aug 7, 2019, 10:06 AM

#

okay well i got the custom component does not exist again -_-

civic sedge Aug 7, 2019, 10:07 AM

#

bunch of stuff should be fine

#

but always run a check

unreal wind Aug 7, 2019, 10:07 AM

#

civic sedge Aug 7, 2019, 10:07 AM
