anyone have favicon working ok using via integrations?
sense last 2 version doesnt seem to work
#frontend-archived

polar kelp
There’s been some breaking changes. Reread the docs.
prime umbra
i have read it not sure what im doing wrong
version 4 work perfect but i use to do with yaml mode
with integration mode no luck
viral sorrel
ha! HACS must have been caching something.. like the original integration repository add.. restarting home assistant fixed it
prime umbra
i have tried with paths
/local/favicons/red
/local/favicons/red.png
clean cach etc and nothing
quaint tundra
hmm are entity-button cards meant to change icon based on automation state?
mild veldt
@quaint tundra no
currently only things related to "sun/light" have their icons change color (I'm trying to get that changed)
quaint tundra
@mild veldt yeah no worries. i might hold off changing them all to picture entities then.
viral sorrel
can anyone outline the pros/cons of lovelace-auto-entities vs monster-card?
mild veldt
monster-card hasn't been updated in over a year
viral sorrel
was that the motivation for auto-entities?
mild veldt
yes, of course?
viral sorrel
ok. so it's safe to basically treat it as a replacement
lol.. somehow I totally missed https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-auto-entities#about-monster-card despite looking for it..
ok.. this is bothering me..even if it makes no difference...
- url:
type:
or
- type:
url:
and is this normal or does it mean I've ballsed something up?
Expected a value of type `{entity,name,icon} | entity-id` for `entities.0.type` but received `"custom:auto-entities"`.
just not the usual warning when trying to use the UI to edit custom cards
mild veldt
order makes no difference
viral sorrel
I know it doesn't.. but I'm a bit ocd.. so it still does 😛
the ui raw editor doesn't support splitting the lovelace yaml does it?
hmm.. I can't get state 'unavailable' to work with auto-entities.. it strips the quotes from the config automatically.. don't know if that matters.. but it doesn't work.
timid burrow
the raw editor mangles the order (changes everything to alphabetical)
viral sorrel
hmm.. shouldn't strip the quotes of key values though should it?
it simply doesn't consider unavailable to be a valid state it seems
viral sorrel
but you sure are right.. raw config seems to have mangled my views.. don't even understand what it's done
mild veldt
@viral sorrel it will strip unnecessary quotes
viral sorrel
even though the example shows unavailable being used as a state it just doesn't work for me :/
and the raw config editor has bizzarely moved the path/title to the bottom of the views
mild veldt
It's alphabetical as David pointed out
viral sorrel
that is a weird default
mild veldt
alphabetical is weird...?
viral sorrel
yes.. when it puts the heading as the last thing because it starts with "t" for title :/
mild veldt
it's because the data is stored in JSON, converted using the ruamel library which does not preserve order
viral sorrel
ahh.. that makes a bit more sense now.. wish there was a way to have the best of both worlds with the ui and easier direct editing also when necessary
mild veldt
I don't know a lot about that side of things, but from what I can tell it is a limitation of ruamel but other libraries do support persevation. I think there is an issue on it in the repo. Probably won't be something I work on
viral sorrel
good to hear it's something that has been discussed.. promising for the future.. it's already a while new experience doing a fresh install
viral sorrel
just out of curiosity.. is the switch to yaml editing by hand a one way trip or can you then revert back to ui editing?
viral sorrel
that doesn't appear to address that at all
so is the omission confirmation that it's not possible?
or is the 4th dot point at the bottom addressing it without any other context? it seems ambiguous
dark dirge
You can go back and forth
viral sorrel
ok.. awesome.. that's all I really needed to know. thank you
dark dirge
Np
To go back to UI, remove the config entry and copy the ui -lovelace.yaml content back into the raw config section
viral sorrel
ok. I wish it said it that simply in the documentation.. I think it transitions into describing the opposite of what it begins with but not clearly.. at least to me. might read through it a few times
mild veldt
PRs to make the documentation clearer are always welcome
It is sometimes hard for devs to be able to take a step back and see from a user's view
viral sorrel
I understand.. it's hard enough for me to explain what I mean much of the time.. I know what I mean 😛
timid burrow
I am configured for GUI but I maintain a yaml file and cut/paste that into the raw editor. The GUI editor I find useful for testing something before updating the yaml
mild veldt
polar kelp
@prime umbra You shouldn't include any filename in the path. If your icons are in www/icons/red/favicon.ico, www/icons/red/favicon-128x128.png etc. you specify /local/icons/red/.
prime umbra
that worked thanks

https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant-polymer/issues/4021 @polar kelp @split granite other thoughts?
polar kelp
I'll need to add some safety functions. If you run it in storage mode it will ask if you want to take control, and if you answer yes, your config is lost.
I think that's a really good idea.
split granite
Yeah, I love it @mild veldt - makes it easy to create a view per area for folks
mild veldt
yeah, I really like this idea. Going to start on it next
sage plover
Hi! I'm fairly new to home assistant and just recently set it up on a Raspberry Pi3+. Today I notice a message that a new version was available. It was version 0.100. something. My previous version was 0.98 something. After updating the Overview window (lovelance) is not responding (the circle is just going round and round endlessly) In the home panel I just get the message 502: Bad Gateway. Anyone else that experienced this after upgrade and if so how do I solve this?

That doesn't sound like a #frontend-archived issue...sounds more like a general #330944238910963714 error...

I really want a bigger one for the living room to show my lovelace views
split granite
It's a much better display, I'm just unsure why it's not an option in Chrome at all
mint geode
Much better display in temrs of? Brightness, dpi, colours?
split granite
Size compared to the smaller Hub, and everything compared to the Lenovo I had there
wheat current
I thought size didn't matter 😦
mint geode
Colour and DPI were things I hoped they improved on
split granite
Ok, restarted Chrome, cast works...
Two columns
I've never been unhappy with the colours in the smaller units
mint geode
I always thought they looked very, very washed out
split granite
There's options for colour matching the environment (white balance)
Maybe that's your problem?
It's also quite possibly a user expectation problem - most TVs etc default to over-saturated
My TV has been set for a natural experience, and the colours on the Home Hub units are very close to what the TV shows when I cast the same images
mint geode
No, I've modified them a bit, that's not the issue. If I for example start watching YouTube, the red is very matte, compared to all other devices, like TV's, Phones, Tablets, ...
I get your point with the over saturated colours, but I'm using natural /sRGB colour profiles where I can
Gonna doublecheck my device settings though, maybe I've overlooked something

Also the browser_mod.set_theme doesnt work using the example

lots of them, do i need to declare them in browser mod?
or just like i have used them with frontend set theme
polar kelp
That's the only reason I could think of for frontend.set_theme not to be there

let me just check

You should see them in the list in your user settings

where i moved it to /config/components
quick fix, thanks again

The frontend.set_theme service changes the theme for all users who have their theme set to backend_select
Here's another option for card headers that I maybe should do something with...
polar kelp
@vapid field Install this: https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-icon-headers and add card_icon: mdi:whatever to any card.

Is there a way to lock a history graph card in Lovelace to a particular Timezone, ignoring the client zone? When I travel I want to see my graph in my home zone (it’s a solar generation graph)

Testers needed: https://github.com/custom-cards/restriction-card
cc @polar kelp haven't tested in rows yet (haven't really tested at all 🤣 in its custom form. Wanted to push it out before I had to head out for a bit)
brave basin
any issue using the restriction card on the custom button card? i wonder if the lock icons overlap each other. nice work, been looking forward to using something like this!
looks like icons are on different sides so you'd see 2x locks. nice
raven nacelle
@mild veldt Can we even hide a card using the restriction-card or may be that is beyond the scope? I am thinking of the PC card that I don't want to be visible to everyone
mild veldt
@raven nacelle yeah, I think visible would fall into this. I'll look into adding it
@brave basin why use both locks?
fringe mulch
If I wanted to find/copy/read and then modify separately the GENERIC_THERMOSTAT card, where would I find the files for that?
mild veldt
ahaha, I didn't even publish the distribution files...
@raven nacelle okay, push out a working release and added the ability to hide
@fringe mulch unless you are on a dev environment, you can't (I don't recommend running production on a dev setup)
you can however make it into a custom card but that takes some extra work
the restriction-card I just posted was something I wrote for core, but then decided to move to a custom card instead, for example
fringe mulch
@mild veldt hmm. I'll probably try modifying someone else's custom thermostat card. Thanks for the info.
mild veldt
@fringe mulch out of curosity, what are you looking to change?
fringe mulch
I'm currently using the generic_thermostat as a hygrostat. It reads in degrees instead of percentage and the icons are for HVAC. I'd like to change the icons and have it read as percentage. It works great now for my needs, I'm just being picky.
raven nacelle
Awesome....thanks @mild veldt
mild veldt
@polar kelp FYI restriction-card doesn't play nice with rows yet. overlay doesn't expand over the row at all

Hey, how do I move stuff in lovelace? Like, the spotify module and weather icons that are on top by default?

@worthy cradle you can physically move the code in the raw config editor. You can also use the arrow buttons once in the configure UI mode .
polar kelp
@livid oracle You can hide them using custom-compact-header and have a "menu view" with navigation buttons.
@worthy cradle Click 
in the top right and select Configure UI to get started

Ah, that easy? Thanx 😄

Anyone know if there are any plans to update vertical-stack and horizontal-stack with a GUI editor? Would be great to be able to keep the editing context within one of those cards. Currently I just have a big stack of YAML text inside my vertical stacks.

@timid burrow I think you can create a theme with ha-card-border-radius and add that at the beginning of each view and that may work to fix the issue by overriding that element. ??

Hi everyone! I'm in need of help as I can't move forward with my home automation until I solve this.
I'm using hass.io on a NUC using the recommended procedure. I have Grafana working, but it's impossible to view Grafana charts from Lovelace when using an Android device.
The reason probably being that the card on Lovelace links to hassio.local, but since Android devices doesn't support mDNS, the device can't resolve the URL and as a result can't view the chart.
I've searched online for hours, made threads both over HA's official forum, Reddit and Swedish websites but no one seems to have any idea what is going on - or I'm too bad at explaining, because no one has ever replied with any kind of suggestions.
I'm positive that there's a solution to this (probably a simple one), because I'm sure there are at least some of you out there using HA, Grafana and Android.
wheat current
use IP of FDQD
sturdy quartz
Sorry, I don't know what FDQD means
I'm already using the IP of the NUC when browsing from my Android devices, otherwise I wouldn't be able to access HA at all (as it doesn't work with hassio.local). The card on Lovelace still links to hassio.local though
wheat current
use the IP in the card too 😉

is there another chance to change a translation without sharing it to the community?
wheat current
I guess you could run a custom js script to change the values stored in the hacs object
if that is possible, the changes will not be removed when you upgrade
vapid field
sounds good. Any idea where i can get a starting point for doing that?

Nope

Hello everyone! Does anybody know if i can clone an entity's interface and turn it into a custom lovelace card? i wanna recreate xiaomi's vacuum entity menu into a card and use some features already built(fan speed selector, commands and battery indicator). where can i find the file that contains it? Thank you!
stiff oasis
@mild veldt thank you! i already saw those but they miss one feature i need most: setting the fan speed
mild veldt
well I would suggest just editing that first card to include that
stiff oasis
that's why i tried finding the entity interface source code, to copy the feature from there 😄
mild veldt
The source is in the link I just gave you
I think...?
I don’t really know what you mean by “entity interface”
stiff oasis
the menu that appears when you click the entity
i'll do a screenshot
https://ibb.co/nmyLTDN that's what i mean by entity interface
no card has the fan speed selector it and i dont know how to integrate it
timid burrow
@mild veldt problem is everyone will use a different border-radius so a PR to the themes repo will only help me and will no doubt piss off everyone else. It would be far better if you could configure the border-radius either for the whole of lovelace or for each view. Then you could just load the themes from HACS and they would behave how you want them. I suppose it's not a drama anyway as I expect the themes won't change much anyway.
stiff oasis
@mild veldt that's exactly what i was looking for, i love you
mild veldt
You're asking to make HA work with HACS when it should be the other way around
timid burrow
@mild veldt well I only see the problem with themes d/l by HACS but it possibly makes more sense to be able to define global styles outside of the theme so you can just easily change theme
mild veldt
themes are defintely going to be evolving; aligning their naming, exposing more, adding UI editors to create them and I just submitted a PR to allow them to be more easily applied to individual cards. so it will be an ongoing thing for a bit
timid burrow
ok... even more reason to be able to set a global option in lovelace so you can just update a theme then
mild veldt
The theme is the option
vapid field
Hey there, is there an option to define the color of an icon based on State in a binary template sensor or a template sensor?

ages ago, before lovelace, there was a custom ui that allowed you to configure entity friendly names based on the context they were in.. is there anything like that for lovelace now?
split granite
Not natively
ancient mauve
Is it possible to use wildcard to populate a card with all device_trackers?
viral sorrel
I'm dreaming of something like lovelace-auto-entities but for friendly names
ancient mauve
And there i got the answer maybe...
split granite
You did
ancient mauve
Think i removed card-tools when moving to hacs
viral sorrel
thomaslovenlace keeps coming out with amazing things so maybe we'll get something that does friendly names too
polar kelp
Why not just specify name:?
viral sorrel
because in my case I would need to do that dozens of times.. in fact in EVERY SINGLE CASE
well not quite true. there would exist times where I want the full name
so that's 9 x 10 just for energy monitoring... which is probably 5% of the interface
if my old HA hadn't broken itself somehow I could link a screenshot... unless I can find an old one
split granite
So, 90 entities, minute an entity if you're slow, hour and a half
You've problem spent longer searching for a solution 😛
viral sorrel
yes and then ther's the other 1000
and because of all the manual editing there are a lot of mistakes
so you end up with a card with "Living Room" as the heading and "Living room whatever" for 20 entities or so a go if you're lucky instead of just stripping the redundant (and very noisy) extra info
https://github.com/andrey-git/home-assistant-custom-ui go around that.. used to have screenshots but not seeing them now
was SUPER fiddly but could be templated
example

https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant-polymer Here is the source of the frontend (which includes lovelace), if anything is missing create a PR to add it, or open a feature request on the forum 😉

I can't even figure out how to debug a custom component anymore despite spending dozens of hours on it :/
and I wrote it
I've forgotten more than I ever knew 😦
I wanted to make some PR's this month but I had to give up.. couldn't figure out how to get discovery worling in the dev container.. at best I can suggest to developers how they could easily add unique_id's to their components..
some sort of regexp-friendly-name plugin where you can strip the card name from the friendly name would probably be 99% of the way there

Hello! (hopefully) quick question: I've just installed a Tado Smart AC Controller V3+ and added the neccessary tado config to my configuration.yaml..
This gives me no errors, and the AC also shows in the 'states' section, as a climate component with the correct state... so far so good...
Now I wish to add it as a card to my lovelace config, but I get the error: "specify an entity from within the climate domain"
Has anyone else had issues with tado AC control?
@livid oracle :
- type: custom:mini-media-player
entity: media_player.master_bedroom_tv

little update on my own problem: I just found that even the sensor components for TADO are not showing in lovelace...even though they are correctly showing in the "states" section

add them yourself. If you stopped using auto-mode, then you need to continually configure your ui.

Hi, how do I create a numeric input box in a card with Lovelace? I've followed the documentation https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/input_number/ but it's not showing up. It's really confusing me...

is there a lovelace card that will refresh the photo you're pointing to ? Location is in www folder. adding '/local/driveway_latest.jpg' to all the current picture card shows me a older image
Thanks !
wheat current
Probably, but that is overkill, just use the file camera integration in #330944238910963714
manic skiff
I saw that came up a few times in google but couldn't get it going.. It also seems that cameras are handled by picture-entity in this release. Can't remember if that was the way it was done in the past

Is somebody aware of a lovelcace card that requires authentification? I know there are some cards where you have to enter a pin, but I was more looking after something like with FaceID or TouchID for iPhones and the Android equivalent of that functions.

@mint geode no. Websites don't have access to those functions from what I know webauthn could be used (Thanks @wheat current )

Hello, I'm just getting into HA today, not real strong on it yet, but i'm trying to figure out how to show dashboard on other devices (wallmounted ipad, rpi with touchscreen etc) and i dont understand one thing. the loveless interface looks really promesing and customisable, but all i find when searching to set up a device to show this i get appdeamon or other apps. is there no way to just the overview in loveless avalible to other devices? maybe only one tab for this device and another for another device?

@fiery sail not that I’m aware of.
Depending on the domain though you can group entities like covers to call in automations. That would be more of a topic to ask in #330944238910963714 though

is there a lovelace card for controlling a blind position, a bit like the thermostat card where you set the target and wait for it to get to target but looks like a blind instead of a thermostat like the thomasloven card
polar kelp
If you have horizontal blinds, slider-entity-row. And plese don’t ping people randomly.

@polar kelp sorry, not my intention, i meant to reference you, not message you
the problem with slider-entity-row card is that it doesnt show current position, which is why i reference the thermostat card which shows current v target

hey guys, I'm having trouble using the tap_action for glance; after attempting to copy from the documentation I get an error
type: glance

- entity: sensor.my_sensor

Expected a value of type {entity,name,icon} | entity-id for entities.0.tap_action but received {"action":"url","url_path":"https://google.com"}.
I didn't direct copy, just following the scheme I saw for other options for tap_action
and advice on what I did wrong would be much appreciated 😄
I have tested some permutation of entity,name,icon,etc. under the entity key. I don't think I know how to read the above error?
I was able to use the navigation_path command as follows and get basically the same error, except this works...

tap_action:
action: navigate
navigation_path: /lovelace/cast1

Expected a value of type {entity,name,icon} | entity-id for entities.0.tap_action but received {"action":"navigate","navigation_path":"/lovelace/cast1"}.
not sure how to go about attempting to open a URL remotely 😛
maybe there's an easier way. What I want to do is open a URL to navigate on Google maps when I tap the entity in lovelace.

was there a method to go from a partially configured yaml-less config to a yaml one without going into raw config and having everything sorted? or is it not sorted the first time you go in (i'm afraid to check in case I make things worse)

it's always sorted

Keys are strings, and thus sorted both binaryly and alphabetically
(in lovelace, yaml allows other key types too)
viral sorrel
it moves related settings away from each other.. that's an issue for me. I love the ui and that's what I use mostly. but there's always things that need closer attention in the yaml.. and then boom.. titles at the end and all sorts of spaghetti.. I'm sure it will eventually be able to NOT sort. just a matter of time
wheat current
personally I hope not
viral sorrel
only reason not to is to make it difficult for users who prefer to use the UI 😛
polar kelp
or different focus
wheat current
How about not needing to use the raw editor at all 😉
viral sorrel
seems like the focus lately has been squarely on ease of use
well I was surprised it existed.. I thought the editing could be limited to one card at a time
I only just tried all this for the first time very recently
and I did hear on the podcast a while ago how the goal is for each card to have ui editing in the future
do any third party cards include ui editing functionality?
wheat current
Speaking of, that thing you did @polar kelp to get custom plugins in the "+" list, is that published somewhere?
Some do @viral sorrel
polar kelp
No. It's not nicely behaved enough yet.
I.e. there's no guarantee it could be done twice by different cards.
wheat current
oh, that's a bummer :/
Anything I can to to inject it from HACS?
polar kelp
Ideally, it should be a feature of lovelace, so a custom plugin could "register" a card that would show up in the picker.
I think I'll focus on adding that to core, rather than trying to shoehorn it in.
wheat current
Sounds reasonable
viral sorrel
is this to do with manually adding the includes?
wheat current
Is there any plans/work allready started, for a resource editor?
viral sorrel
so this is going from the other direction, rather than choosing entities and then the type of card you choose the type of card and then configure your entities? feels more natural to me
polar kelp
That's how it normally works...?
wheat current
I assume it would work from both places, not that I have tried using the unused sectionin a while
viral sorrel
lol.. so it is.. I've always gone the other way.. I add something and check unused entities, select them and then choose a card
polar kelp
The unused adder (introduced in 0.100, I think) only adds cards that have an entities: list - which currently is entities and glance.

I have a local_file camera that I am using in a picture-glance card. A few times a day, the image shows as "broken" on the frontend. Any thoughts on fixing this?
fringe mulch
@split granite OK. I think I've found the solution to my problem. The switch.lights doesn't read on/off as 1/0 so all I get in my graph is 0 for the switch. Can this be done as a template?
split granite
Sure, create a template sensor (or binary sensor) and graph that
fringe mulch
@split granite Awesome. Now I gotta learn template sensor and/or binary sensor. I'm assuming in the template i'll create an entity_id and that's what I'll link to?

Hey all new to lovelace - in fact dont even know if im using it 😄 ...I'd like to add the following but not sure if I can do so through the UI or if i have to create a lovelace.yaml file?
elder pendant
Please read the guide that I just linked ☝
limber fjord
Ah didnt realize that was you.. okay thanks!
looks pretty straightforward...
I guess only question would be what happens to current cards before switching to the "Configure UI" mode
`By default Home Assistant will maintain your user interface, updating it when new entities or Lovelace components become available. If you take control we will no longer make changes automatically for you.
Are you sure you want to take control of your user interface?`
Is it possible to grab the this current conf and load it into the new yaml file to start off with?
elder pendant
iirc that is what happens by default
It just stops making automatic changes when you add entities in the future
though I could be wrong. You can always revert back to automatic mode though 🤷
limber fjord
ah okay, was always nervous to switch to that mode because didnt want to lose everything i had
oh okay cool
here goes!
Yep looks like its there
thanks!

Trying to get monster-card to work with gauges, but whenever I modify it to do so, it ends up disappearing completely. Does it not work with gauges? Further reading points to using auto-entities instead, I'll try that and report back.

hallow spruce
do most of you folks use YAML mode or the UI editor?
mild veldt
Personal preference
hallow spruce
yeah - I like he real-time updates of the GUI editor, but it seems to still have limitations
timid burrow
you can use both
I am configured for GUI but I also cut/paste in raw mode from a yaml file. I like to see style changes in real time with the gui editor and then put those into the yaml and cut/paste in raw mode
hallow spruce
yeah, I know what you mean - I wish comments would be preserved though
timid burrow
don't have to be preserved! They are all still in my yaml file and I really don't care if they are lost in raw mode
hallow spruce
so you just always edit-in-yaml, then cut-paste to raw UI?
hallow spruce
ah
timid burrow
unless I use the GUI to test or see how something will look
then I do it in yaml and paste to raw
as Ian said.. purely a personal preference
hallow spruce
my normal MO for HA is using VSCode on my mac with SMB mounted /config dir from my Ubuntu server
I dunno why I switched to GUI editor

You can use the filter hue-rotate to change the colors of a picture.
Or saturate to de-colorize it.

I'm trying to figure out overlapping lights in picture-elements floorplan card.

So i have a weird problem, my lovelace UI has completely gone white. Nothing loads except the bar on the left of the screen. Everything works fine in the /states view (the old UI) just Lovelace won't load. This is on all devices also: iphone app, web browser, and fire tablets. I assume it's because i made changes to Lovelace and then upgraded to .100.3 and something got locked in the transition. Is there like a .loc file that could be locked up due to edits?
I have tried restarting Home-assistant, and i have also rebooted the VM that it is running on. Any other ideas?

What steps have you taken to attempt that?
edgy bear
as i read i have tro simply add lovelace-background: center / cover no-repeat url("/local/background.png") fixed to the theme
with background.png the name of my image

and you have that image in your <config-directory>/www directory?
and you cleared your browser cache after making these changes?

yes to both

Did you call the frontend.reload_themes service?

how do i do that?
elder pendant
The services dev tool on your frontend
edgy bear
yes still no image.
elder pendant
Did you just create the www directory?
edgy bear
no some time ago

The only other things I can think of are make sure you have the correct theme selected and that the theme is formatted correctly, restart home assistant, and refresh the browser page
and double-check your file name

i have the theme selected as backend on start and on every view is the backend also selected
and i tried in png and jpg

how to have shown in the markdown the name of the radio and not the URL ?

A radio configuration?
name is typically under attributes.media_title

@mild veldt Do you intend on adding the ability to specify more than 4 apps for the Roku Card? Maybe add another row on the bottom? I can make a feature request if you want, but wanted to at least ask first.

Did you clear your browser cache after the change?

If you installed it with HACS, you need to delete the gz file for changes in the JS file to be applied

It prefers gz if in the same dir

Correct
That's why it's still there, otherwise hacs could just delete that file since it's not being used
