I found casting from the backend didn't work without https://domain:port

split granite Oct 26, 2019, 8:50 AM

#

I find that the Cast site works, but the Lovelace card doesn't

timid burrow Oct 26, 2019, 8:51 AM

#

Ok.. I can make both work... but you must set the base URL

#

Correctly

split granite Oct 26, 2019, 8:52 AM

#

Mine is 😛

#

Otherwise TTS to Chromecast wouldn't work

timid burrow Oct 26, 2019, 8:54 AM

#

              - type: custom:button-card

I'll get the script....

#

👍

#

I'll play with that later, the only thing I've ever wanted to cast is my camera, but I know once I start playing with it I'll find other uses

timid burrow Oct 26, 2019, 8:57 AM

#

The secret sauce was the baseURL - if you don't have https and the port (if the port isn't 443) it won't work

#

I did get the cast from frontend working without the baseURL but it won't work with the backend one if it's wrong

split granite Oct 26, 2019, 8:58 AM

#

Yeah, mine is set correctly, but I wonder if my proxy is the problem... things to explore later 😄

timid burrow Oct 26, 2019, 8:58 AM

#

I also use a proxy (caddy) I screwed around for a while to make it work but it does work

#

Haven't got a practical use mind you but.....

split granite Oct 26, 2019, 9:00 AM

#

🤣

timid burrow Oct 26, 2019, 9:00 AM

#

Hahaha I know right..

split granite Oct 26, 2019, 9:01 AM

#

Eh, I'm the same, I don't have a real need for casting from Lovelace, I just want to play

timid burrow Oct 26, 2019, 9:02 AM

#

I hate it when I can't make shit work.. I'm tenacious like that and I do like playing with new stuff

split granite Oct 26, 2019, 9:02 AM

#

Mind you, I just realised, I'm only allowing API access through the proxy... that probably doesn't help 🤦

timid burrow Oct 26, 2019, 9:03 AM

#

I'm not a proponent of 'if it ain't broken'

💯 me too lol

#

You learn more that way IMO

split granite Oct 26, 2019, 9:05 AM

#

Agreed

timid burrow Oct 26, 2019, 9:06 AM

#

Just also regarding cast, even when it connects it can be a bit slow to cast the page you are asking for - it's not instant and easy to think it's not working

split granite Oct 26, 2019, 9:07 AM

#

Yeah, I get that with the camera stream

#

It can take 5 to 10 seconds, and even then it's another 5 to 10 seconds "behind"

timid burrow Oct 26, 2019, 9:08 AM

#

Ok....

#

Right..

split granite Oct 26, 2019, 9:08 AM

#

Don't know why that is, but it's apparently known and expected - likely the overhead of HA's processing the stream

timid burrow Oct 26, 2019, 9:11 AM

#

Maybe. I also had some other issues that might have contributed (I had 5 mins when I restarted HA on a NUC and it was often a minute to respond - no idea why. It's back now to 20 seconds now and no slowness - it might have been a docker version but I really don't know what was wrong)

#

And as I said I don't use cast anyway so I dunno if it's faster now...

Hey folks! I saw a screen the other day with some sort of progress bar style lovelace card. i would love to use that to show the state of the sunscreen

open seal Oct 26, 2019, 5:13 PM

hi. so i want to add a 3x3 num pad to my ui, and if a correct code is entered, run a script. any idea on how to make this work?

open seal Oct 26, 2019, 5:30 PM

#

hi. is there a way the lovelace code of the alarm panel card ? i want to make a custom card based on the alarm card.

raven nacelle Oct 26, 2019, 8:18 PM

#

@open seal Here's the code https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant-polymer/blob/dev/src/panels/lovelace/cards/hui-alarm-panel-card.ts

timber solstice Oct 26, 2019, 11:01 PM

#

Just tried, https://cast.home-assistant.io/ this looks really nice. Only issue i run in to now is that it uses the default theme, which conflicts with some custom card color schemes. Is there a way to change the theme for the casted page ?

mild veldt Oct 26, 2019, 11:36 PM

@open seal haven't added a pin pad yet, but this supports the code part: https://github.com/custom-cards/restriction-card

is it possible to group entities in a card by area? I'm having trouble finding info on how to use areas.. or is that functionality that has not yet been developed?

split granite Oct 27, 2019, 11:52 AM

#

That was being discussed the other week and I think somebody's working on it - but tabs/views by area rather than cards

sturdy pendant Oct 27, 2019, 1:15 PM

#

Hey guys, how does somebody know what service to use for a specific entity? or do you just do trial and error on developer tools

#

Since I am trying to get or trying to figure out how to use my rm mini 3 paired with the custom roku card by iantrich

night talon Oct 27, 2019, 1:49 PM

#

service calls should be in the docs for the component

sturdy pendant Oct 27, 2019, 1:58 PM

#

Ok thanks. Just wondering if there are other ways to check or easily discover.

night talon Oct 27, 2019, 1:59 PM

#

Is this it? https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/broadlink/

sturdy pendant Oct 27, 2019, 2:02 PM

#

Yes but it seems like I need the automation and call it as it is easier. I thought I could just it through the custom roku with switch.turn_on

#

It's more of a preference I prefer having it all in one file than having go left and right changing stuff there. But it does make my lovelace cleaner.

#

Thanks.

night talon Oct 27, 2019, 2:05 PM

#

Doesn't custom roku use the same service calls as regular roku?

#

should be able to use media player service calls

sturdy pendant Oct 27, 2019, 2:15 PM

#

Not sure, never really played with it that much. I gave up and moved to glance card lol

#

I want to however turn off the toggle portion of some of my entities. Since I do not actually know their state. I just want them as a button with an icon without changing the color if it turned on or off. Would it be assumed_state: off

night talon Oct 27, 2019, 2:22 PM

#

I think by default the glance card doesn't toggle entity states. Try just setting show_state: false so it doesn't show the state.

sturdy pendant Oct 27, 2019, 2:32 PM

#

Ok thanks.

devout loom Oct 27, 2019, 6:06 PM

Has a calendar like this been made in Lovelace yet? https://www.dakboard.com/img/dakboard-agenda-tan.jpg

glacial ledge Oct 27, 2019, 6:53 PM

#

is there a lovelace "template card"? like a card you can write custom text and include information from sensors. i.e.:
"today is <weather.sensor> and the heat is set to: <climate.lr.state> and <sensor.presense> is not home yet"

polar kelp Oct 27, 2019, 7:26 PM

#

Yes. Markdown.

glacial ledge Oct 27, 2019, 7:45 PM

#

thanks.

#

Is there a way to get a sensor's data from a different home-assistant installation on a different computer on the same network?

polar kelp Oct 27, 2019, 8:05 PM

#

mortal cape Oct 27, 2019, 11:46 PM

#

@glacial ledge I like remote assistant.

#

https://github.com/lukas-hetzenecker/home-assistant-remote

#

I use the same network, but they can be on different networks

glacial ledge Oct 27, 2019, 11:50 PM

#

looks cool. which instance do I install it on? The little bit I looked it seemed like the "client" hass gets the config.

#

Is that correct?

mortal cape Oct 27, 2019, 11:52 PM

#

You install it on the "master". On the client, you only create the long lived access token.

#

My config is pretty simple:

#

  instances:
  - host: 192.168.1.117
    port: 8123
    secure: false
    access_token: eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGdfgp-89eh3r4gFFiyGJENdiwnnQEGRUGEAHRGFWENRGH-DG80wN9hiSNAUIzc
    entity_prefix: "slave01_"```

glacial ledge Oct 27, 2019, 11:56 PM

#

what do you call "master"? I think we call it different things...

mortal cape Oct 27, 2019, 11:56 PM

#

The master is where you expect to see all the sensors coming in

glacial ledge Oct 27, 2019, 11:56 PM

#

I call the one "serving" the sensors master

mortal cape Oct 27, 2019, 11:56 PM

#

the slave is the instance with the sensors to share to the other

glacial ledge Oct 27, 2019, 11:57 PM

#

ok. great. maybe we should move to #330944238910963714 so we don't clog the #frontend-archived chan with OT stuff...

mortal cape Oct 27, 2019, 11:58 PM

#

If you want to turn it on its head and have multiple masters all reporting in to one slave that's fine with me. ✊

#

it's probably better in #609399695466430465

glacial ledge Oct 28, 2019, 12:03 AM

#

ok. but I think we're done 🙂

have some groups that has different sensors all added together.. how can i add them to lovelace as a card?

#

the groups contains several sensors

#

if i just add the group in the entities, then i just get the state of the group as a whole, not the individual sensors in the group

in your config direcory - you created an www folder?

wispy kite Oct 28, 2019, 11:53 AM

wispy kite Oct 28, 2019, 11:54 AM

#

Yeah

civic sedge Oct 28, 2019, 11:54 AM

#

when you create the www folder you need to restart one time that you get [url]/local

when you pass now [url]/local/howeveryounamedyour.js you should be able to see the content

atomic glacier Oct 28, 2019, 5:59 PM

#

@viral sorrel Certain cards can be added inside other cards, But not like you are trying. Knowing what youe are trying to achieve, I may be able to help.
@outer gulch Would be easier to extract the info you would like to see within that card and display it instead of 'grouping' the sensors in that card, if I am understanding what you are looking for...
@errant plover I don't have a custom card for that, but I simply use photos loaded to HA in a folder and display them in rotation, works fine, but if you are needing tons of pics, not gonna be worth it.

atomic glacier Oct 28, 2019, 11:43 PM

@viral sorrel This is from Thomas Loven and it works great, I have it on a test view: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/wh9HrRwmcW/

Of course, you can style it however you wish, but need card-mod & auto-entities installed to work...

viral sorrel Oct 28, 2019, 11:59 PM

#

I saw that but I don't think it includes all the features of the battery entity card. all my batteries are 100% so I can't test the icon changing with the level (is that automatic now?)

atomic glacier Oct 29, 2019, 12:07 AM

#

@viral sorrel This was Thomas' creation and the icon changing color templates are buit-in. I believe the reason the icon changes is due to the device_class: battery part. I just changed all of my battery sensors to that type and voila'. That is why I included the pic so you could see all of that.

viral sorrel Oct 29, 2019, 12:08 AM

#

oh sorry.. I missed the pic.. that's perfect.. seems to make the battery entity card redundant

glacial ledge Oct 29, 2019, 3:20 AM

#

I don't know if it belongs here but I don't know where else.
Using the webUI on android adding to homescreen sets up hass as a webapp as expected and it works great.
However I am having an issue because I want to set the link to .../lovelace/4 instead of the default .../lovelace/ so I can have two seperate links for different panels. I tried going to the panel I wanted and then adding to homescreen but it still defaults to .../lovelace/.
How to do this?

atomic glacier Oct 29, 2019, 3:36 AM

#

@glacial ledge The easiest way is lovelace-state-switch or compact-custom-header and create a different user for the tablet and just restrict access accordingly to what you need. Examples in my repo if needed

errant plover Oct 29, 2019, 3:43 AM

@atomic glacier How do you display the photos? I have a constant number of 24 photos. Is that too many?

@errant plover This is an example that I use in a popup: https://github.com/Dino-Tech/Home-Assistant-Main/blob/master/scripts.yaml#L2966-L3078
looks like: https://imgur.com/a/NuT9wEO and the automation rotates the pics at 3 mins...(I think, I'd have to chk, but...)

#

the top pic is still one and the bottom is camera image

fleet kite Oct 29, 2019, 3:52 PM

#

So....I'm having some difficulty finding the answer I'm looking for here. Is it still true that cover entities cannot have a tap-action in a picture-glance card? I'm wanting to have the live video feed from inside my garage be the "image" background of a card, but have toggles for the two overhead doors (already setup cover entities for both), and three light switches. They work fine on a glance card, but not a picture-glance. I thought I read something a while back about not being able to toggle covers in PG cards, but didn't know if that was still a limitation.

I would like to create a 1-button control for the lighting in the whole house. I am imagining to have a bulb icon with numbers saying something like 10/16, to show that 10 out of 16 lights are on. If I press it, I would like all lights to turn off. If I hold it, I would like to somehow be shown pop-up with all the rooms of the house as icons again with a text showing how many of the lights in the room are on out of the total. Again, if I press that, I want to turn all lights in the given room off. And then, if possible, have one more pop up step when holding on the icon to show the actual light entities in the room and be able to control them individually. Is this doable?

mild veldt Oct 29, 2019, 5:47 PM

#

@devout loom
you cannot currently have a pop-up within a pop-up; you'd have to trigger a script using browser_mod to dismiss the current pop-up and then bring up the next one you want; but I might have a change for that in 0.102. we'll see.

that being said, everything else sounds doable. I would do this:

vertical-stack-in-card
  - entity-button
  - markdown

entity-button being your button and markdown showing the current number of lights on out of the total
the vertical-stack-in-card makes it look like a single card
you can then configure your entity-button to do the different tap/hold actions you want (0.101 introduces double tap)

using browser_mod you can then define the popups you want to display or wait to see if this gets merged https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant-polymer/pull/4124

devout loom Oct 29, 2019, 5:50 PM

#

Thank you @mild veldt. I hope your card within a card there makes the cut, that looks simple to use!

#

The pop up within a popup is more “nice to have” in what I want to do.

mild veldt Oct 29, 2019, 5:57 PM

#

@pearl hound would help to see what card you're talking about, but short answer is yes. You'd need to concat what the result is into the right spot of how it is already being constructed to be set there

fleet kite Oct 29, 2019, 6:06 PM

#

Just a quick update related to my earlier question, Ian: I updated to .100.3, checked out my code for the card I had made the other day, and still not getting the action that I want. I would appear that toggle is still not a valid action for "cover" devices. Video displays fine, both garage door cover entities and the light switch display overlaid with the "Garage" title. But....covers are still on the left, and tapping them pulls up the more-info action, instead of toggle. Light switch acts as expected. Is there any plan to allow toggle as a valid tap action for cover entities in the picture-glance card in the future?

elder pendant Oct 29, 2019, 6:06 PM

#

You can toggle covers

atomic glacier Oct 29, 2019, 6:07 PM

@pearl hound well if you're doing it, just build your string up

Hmm seems mine is twice as dark as all other cards. As if the two stacked in cards backgrounds are overlapping on the entire card

#

Anyone know if animations like these can be made in Lovelace to show state? https://i.redd.it/rj4165rqjln11.gif

Never heard of it. Cool idea!

tulip mulch Oct 30, 2019, 9:53 AM

it works pretty well.. i couldnt get it work at first.. but it was my fault and not seeing where it saved the card and my ui-lovelace.yaml wasn't pointing to the right place

Any java experts available to help me with this template-card issue? https://community.home-assistant.io/t/100-templatable-lovelace-configurations/105241/289

mild veldt Oct 30, 2019, 1:34 PM

#

@errant plover nothing stands out as being incorrect. Are you sure it isn't an issue with your picture?

polar kelp Oct 30, 2019, 1:38 PM

#

You can't chain comparisons in javascript.

#

if vars[0] is 25, then 10 < vars[0] is true and true < 20 is also true since true is about 1.

#

10 < x < 20 only works in python, and maybe some weird functional languages

#

And you don't need it anyway. If you get to that comparison, then 10 < vars[0] is always true.

mild veldt Oct 30, 2019, 1:42 PM

#

^listen to this guy

polar kelp Oct 30, 2019, 1:51 PM

#

Also, java is not javascript.

errant plover Oct 30, 2019, 2:01 PM

#

I thought someone was going to pick me up on java vs javascript when I lazily wrote that. I guess I'll try using the jinja template card instead then.

#

Thanks.

polar kelp Oct 30, 2019, 2:01 PM

#

Or just replace it with vars[0] < 20...

errant plover Oct 30, 2019, 2:05 PM

#

So, like this? vars[0] <= 10 ? 'E-blu.png' : vars[0] <= 20 ? 'E-grn.png' : vars[0] <= 30 ? 'E-yel.png' : 'E-red.png'

polar kelp Oct 30, 2019, 2:24 PM

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

@wild sundial that style is being applied to the stack, not the cards within. you'll need to put that in the config of each light card, I think

mild veldt Oct 30, 2019, 6:47 PM

~~yeah, if I remember correctly, it doesn't support individual row styling like that~~ I lied, it should work

#

https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-card-mod/blob/master/src/example.yaml#L19 but it is inside the stack, which is probably what is breaking it

#

try it without the stack as a sanity check

wild sundial Oct 30, 2019, 7:27 PM

#

this works to shrink the font on a basic light card:

type: light
style: |
  .name {
    font-size: 0.5rem;
  }
entity: light.front_yard_north

#

got it!!

#

type: entities
entities:
  - type: 'custom:hui-horizontal-stack-card'
    cards:
      - type: light
        style: |
          .name {
            font-size: 0.8rem;

I created my own custom element for a custom lovelace card. The element is called <my-cc>. The following html page can use my component successfully:

https://hastebin.com/aliwezewid.xml

I am now trying to figure out how I have to include this component (written in Svelte) inside a custom card. I am trying to follow along https://developers.home-assistant.io/docs/en/lovelace_custom_card.html but I am not getting anywhere. My component lives in a .js file called svelte-bundle.js.

Any tips on how to get my custom element loaded inside a custom lovelace card?

@pseudo birch assuming you put your file in the src folder and your element is properly exported, you just add to the top import "./svelte-bundle";

i really dislike codewalls being considered spam. our bot handles moving them, so why is it an issue? work smarter, not harder?

mild veldt Oct 31, 2019, 12:20 AM

@wind canyon yes, you have to use yaml code editor; not yaml mode, to be clear

#

@devout loom weird, i might take a look. Thats a pretty important card 😄

wind canyon Oct 31, 2019, 12:36 AM

@mild veldt thanks, i did change over to yaml mode. i cannot get it to work with device_tracker or person entities. a light entity with on/off works though

What state are you trying to match that isn't working with trackers?

wind canyon Oct 31, 2019, 12:39 AM

#

home/away, as in the hastebin i pasted, and any combination of "/' or no "

mild veldt Oct 31, 2019, 12:41 AM

Away is the computed state, if I remember correctly. I'm pretty sure it is actually "not_home". Check the states tab in developer tools

ahh, that might be it. It seems to work with "home"

#

Is there a (custom) card where I can expand and hide the cards content?

mild veldt Nov 1, 2019, 7:52 PM

#

@mint geode there's a row that does that but not a card. You could use a conditional-card tied to an input_boolean though

mint geode Nov 1, 2019, 7:54 PM

#

Was thinking of the input_boolean/conditional combination as well, but it would be better to have an toggle option on the card itslef.

#

Something like this: https://wpf-tutorial.com/Images/ArticleImages/1/misc-controls/expander_simple_hidden.png

mild veldt Nov 1, 2019, 8:01 PM

#

don't think that would look really good within the mix of other cards

#

just an icon, hanging out on its own?

#

use an entity-button I guess if you want that

#

or button-card if you want more styling

mint geode Nov 1, 2019, 8:02 PM

#

You could add a caption, wouldn't look that bad I'd guess 😄

mild veldt Nov 1, 2019, 8:02 PM

#

still have the conditional, but button-card would allow you to flip the chevron icon between down/up

mint geode Nov 1, 2019, 8:03 PM

#

So the conditional card would be inside the button card then?

mild veldt Nov 1, 2019, 8:03 PM

#

no...i mean I guess it could be. that is supported now

mint geode Nov 1, 2019, 8:04 PM

#

That would work I guess 🙂

mild veldt Nov 1, 2019, 8:04 PM

#

i don't think the card will dynamically size, however

mint geode Nov 1, 2019, 8:04 PM

#

I'll try if I have time

#

I use conditional cards in an entities card, it resizes correctly in that specific case

mild veldt Nov 1, 2019, 8:05 PM

#

i was referring to the button-card

mint geode Nov 1, 2019, 8:05 PM

#

oh ok, have to look that up, guess it's a custom card?

mild veldt Nov 1, 2019, 8:05 PM

#

yes

#

i think it is overkill for what you're trying to do

#

type: vertical-stack
cards:
  - type: entities
    entities:
      - entity: input_boolean.tv
        name: Show TV
  - type: conditional
    conditions:
      - entity: input_boolean.tv
        state: 'on'
    card:
      type: media-control
      entity: media_player.family_room_2

#

is what I would do

mint geode Nov 1, 2019, 8:07 PM

#

You're right, that's probably the way to go, thanks for all the advice 🙂

#

Any chance you can help me out with my above mentioned conditional in enities card constelation? I've got essentially an entities card, in an conditional card in an entities card. I was looking into removing the double card-borders with card mod but didn't have any success. What attributes to I have to change? margin? padding? Something else?

#

Looks like this: https://imgur.com/a/zhdOOtu

#

The second entity only shows when I'm not at home, therefore it's in an conditional card. I haven't figured out what I have to do to get rid of the double borders

mild veldt Nov 1, 2019, 8:29 PM

#

probably box-shadow: none and margin: 0px

#

should make a conditional row...

mint geode Nov 1, 2019, 8:32 PM

#

Sorry for asking... But what's a conditional row? Didn't find any custom cards or such a property on the entites card docs

mild veldt Nov 1, 2019, 8:33 PM

#

no, I'm saying I should actually make that

mint geode Nov 1, 2019, 8:33 PM

Would be great 🙂

mild veldt Nov 1, 2019, 8:33 PM

#

it is now on the list

mint geode Nov 1, 2019, 8:34 PM

Btw, box-shadow was working fine, only margin I had to set to -16px

Hope that's not too "dirty"

Hey all 🙂 At first sorry for my bad english. I hope it's ok writing here in this chan... I'm new in hassio and new in discord :p I'm reading the FAQ since three days and looking youtube videos. But i have a problem with the themes. Maybe someone can help me. I have default_config activated in my configuration.yaml so frontend is activated, right? So i just added the following line: themes: !include_dir_merge_named themes/ and created a folder with the file midnight.yaml. After rebooting hassio i cant access the theme. When i added frontend: i got a 404 error after rebooting 😦

However, probably you forgot to run a config check 😉

Always run the configuration check command when you make changes. Don't trust the UI check - it misses some problems.

frontend:

hey lovelace guru's 🙂 I've got a problem I can't seem to solve. I've got an MQTT sensor. It recieves on or off from a PIR. I want it to look like a motion sensor, but customize doesnt support mqtt sensors. (only works on binary sensors and remapping its type doesnt work) so i've been bouncing around, trying to use various solutions, currently able to change the icon by making a seperate template sensor which almost does the trick, but i cant change the color when its triggered. Any ideas on how to move forward?

fleet kite Nov 2, 2019, 12:46 PM

#

Not sure if this is the right place to ask; but is it possible to change the way a group of sensors displays its state? I have a group that consists of all of the binary sensors for my doors. The device class for those sensors is "door" so their individual states show up correctly as open/close in lovelace. But the group's state shows as on/off in lovelace. Is there a way to get the group to show open/close instead?

split granite Nov 2, 2019, 12:56 PM

#

@slender temple Wrap it in a template binary sensor 😉

#

The colour will change when the motion sensor is on

After updating to 0.101.1 I have checked the LL changelog and not finding what I am looking for.

AFAIK the only thing that I see not applying

mild veldt Nov 2, 2019, 5:29 PM

I mean it sounds like something related to card-mod in that case, which I don't test against. I don't know of any changes in 0.101 that would have effected those things directly except for potentially when the glance card is updated (it is more strict in its updates now). If you put it in a regular theme it applies, I assume

atomic glacier Nov 2, 2019, 5:33 PM

#

Yeah, all the theme variables apply and the anchors: as well, but the styling inside the glance-card appears to be a no-go, but only on mobile. I have some time today and I'll run every way I can think of for a solution and I'll tag you later this evening if I come up with a solution/problems. Thanks👍🏻

So I've been using TileBoard for the past couple years for wall-mounted tablets in the house. Just rooted and flashed a custom ROM to my tablets so I can get a newer Webview and I'm considering migrating over to using lovelace for them all now. Each tablet has its own interface. I see custom compact header lets you do some user-based customization on links, and thomasloven's browser-mod gives me access to some of the stuff i use in TileBoard. Curious if anyone else is doing this and has any tips for organizing the configuration

#

I also really like the grid of the Tileboard/metro interface, is there a good way to replicate grid layouts with lovelace cards?

atomic glacier Nov 2, 2019, 5:55 PM

#

@tired quail Jump on in the water is fine 😜
You can do almost anything you can design with Lovelace

#

I switched awhile back and I have no regrets

#

@atomic glacier did you use TileBoard in the past?

atomic glacier Nov 2, 2019, 5:57 PM

#

saw it, but I used appdaemon and thought I'd never switch

tired quail Nov 2, 2019, 5:58 PM

#

#

yeah i started out with HADashboard, then jumped over to TileBoard since it was a lot more customizable

#

Foundation for a great layout starts here: https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-layout-card

tired quail Nov 2, 2019, 6:00 PM

#

my main complaint with tileboard right now is it wasn't really built where you can add custom tiles easily, they're all in one giant js/html file

#

and there's a ton of custom cards for lovelace now

split granite Nov 2, 2019, 6:01 PM

#

Since Lovelace came into its own, I've ditched all other HA based UIs

#

The custom cards mean that it can do everything I need now, and way more than that

tired quail Nov 2, 2019, 6:09 PM

#

only thing i don't think i can do with lovelace right now is the digital picture frame/screensaver mode

#

after ~5 minutes of idle time it switched to a "screensaver" that cycles through a batch of pictures and has a big clock & shows the current weather conditions

atomic glacier Nov 2, 2019, 6:17 PM

#

@tired quail that can be done(example in my repo). I have a large clock screensaver and black screensaver for after a certain time at night. My wall mount is motion activated with 'on' 'off' functions that are automated. As I said 👆🏻 pretty much limited to your imagination. mindblown

What is the logic behind the default lovelace layout when just adding card after card, without any horizontal/vertical stacks? The order is different depending on the columns the device displays lovelace on obviously. When is it starting to put a card into a new column?

atomic glacier Nov 2, 2019, 6:21 PM

#

@mint geode take a look here: https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-layout-card for a better explaination than I can give

mint geode Nov 2, 2019, 6:25 PM

#

I'm aware of this plugin, but that layout would then be the same on every device, therefore I would have two or three columns on my phone as well, which would be not that good to navigate through 🙂

#

I'm a fan of the differing columns per device, but I don't get the logic behind the default ordering

#

Which I didn't see explained on your linked site?

atomic glacier Nov 2, 2019, 6:26 PM

#

Thomas explains the logic on that page if you scroll down a bit ( I'll check again) i think

mint geode Nov 2, 2019, 6:27 PM

#

Ok, will look again

atomic glacier Nov 2, 2019, 6:33 PM

#

<min height>
Optional. Default: 5

Best explaination I could find...

The number of units needed before a column is considered not empty.
Every item has a unit height. When that unit height for the column gets to 5, it places the next item in the next column. A unit is about 50 pixels in height if I remember correctly, but some cards can override that. Some cards also don’t have dynamic heights. If they are collapsed when first added, they’ll be treated as the collapsed height.
Apparently it was removed from the link I gave you... @mint geode

mint geode Nov 2, 2019, 6:38 PM

#

Thanks 👌 Was already suspecting the height of the card to play a role since I added a new row to an existing entities card and now my whole layout is acting crazy @atomic glacier

mild veldt Nov 3, 2019, 12:46 AM

#

@mint geode the old card-modder, not card-mod, has the ability to override the reported card size which can be used to overcome some@of those isssues

polar kelp Nov 3, 2019, 12:57 AM

#

That doesn't work reliably on first load. That's why it's not included in the new version.

#

The layouting is explained here: https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-card-modder#forcing-size

#

But since .88 or something it's different on first load, so you can get different layouts when you reload your page and when you move to another view and then back if you have lots of custom cards.

#

Basically, all custom cards have a height of 3 (iirc) until they are loaded in - which they become after the layout has been set on the first page.

#

Some plugins (like card-mod) force a refresh of the layout after they have been loaded, but that's also a bit iffy since there's no guarantee of the load order of resources.

How can I make it so that when I click the lock icon it toggles the locked/unlocked state of my zigbee lock?

Here is my config:

#

  - type: js
    url: /local/card-tools.js?track=true
  - type: js
    url: /local/layout-card.js?track=true
title: Home
views:
  - badges: []
    cards:
      - cards:
          - entity: lock.front_door
            type: entity-button
        type: 'custom:layout-card'
    panel: true
    path: new-home
    title: New Home

After an hour of searching I finally figured out how I did it the last time I set this up. I used the custom button-card. In case someone else finds this in the future here's the solution I used:

#

@long cedar you could have specified the tap_action to toggle as well. A custom card is not necessary

muted inlet Nov 3, 2019, 5:06 AM

#

Yeah I'm not sure about the benefit of the custom card

#

Unless the entity doesn't support toggle I guess

mint geode Nov 3, 2019, 10:12 AM

#

@mild veldt Thanks for the info, will try👍🏼

mild veldt Nov 3, 2019, 12:38 PM

#

@muted inlet even then, pretty much everything in core supports actions

serene ermine Nov 3, 2019, 12:40 PM

HI n00b questian here, I like to change the icon on a button when state changes on a light, Is that possible to do with the lovelace entity-button or is only possible with the custom card "button-card" ?

broken marsh Nov 3, 2019, 12:44 PM

#

I have an automation in automations.yaml that on event_type: xiaomi_aqara_click event_data: click_type single does something. What's the easiest way of adding that as a button in lovelace?

#

Can I perhaps call the ID of an automation?

mild veldt Nov 3, 2019, 12:52 PM

#

@serene ermine that would require a template right now, so something like the config-template-card surrounding it

serene ermine Nov 3, 2019, 12:53 PM

#

ok thx

#

Guess I need to learn about templates then 🙂

mild veldt Nov 3, 2019, 12:54 PM

#

@broken marsh a butting to turn the automation on/off? Or do the "something"?

broken marsh Nov 3, 2019, 12:54 PM

#

Do the something

mild veldt Nov 3, 2019, 12:56 PM

#

You'll need to put that in script then

broken marsh Nov 3, 2019, 12:56 PM

#

Found a way now. Called the automation.trigger service.

mild veldt Nov 3, 2019, 1:04 PM

#

ah, right 👍

vapid field Nov 3, 2019, 1:46 PM

#

@mild veldt Thanks! Can I use different icon for off/on states?

mild veldt Nov 3, 2019, 1:54 PM

#

not without something like config template card. i have plans for something easier though

vapid field Nov 3, 2019, 1:59 PM

Pretty sure you can't hide anything there, deliberately

I'm in the process of moving my install from RPi 3 to RPi 4. I created a full snapshot, copied it to the new device, and restored it. It looks like everything is there, with the exception of my LoveLace design. It's just the basic UI. any suggestions?

hi, I am trying to style my HA installation via Lovelace with some mdi icons. Why can't I use this one ? https://material.io/resources/icons/?icon=ac_unit&style=outline

old whale Nov 3, 2019, 10:43 PM

#

because its not an mdi icon?

polar kelp Nov 3, 2019, 10:43 PM

#

That's not the default iconset of Home Assistant

#

https://materialdesignicons.com/

vapid field Nov 3, 2019, 10:44 PM

#

isn't https://material.io/ by google ?

old whale Nov 3, 2019, 10:44 PM

#

that doesn't matter.

#

home assistant doesnt use material.io

polar kelp Nov 3, 2019, 10:45 PM

#

It strives to, but not the icons specifically.

old whale Nov 3, 2019, 10:45 PM

#

what you can do is download the png (https://fonts.gstatic.com/s/i/materialiconsoutlined/ac_unit/v1/black-18dp.zip) and use entity_picture instead

vapid field Nov 3, 2019, 10:45 PM

#

no, because it is for the top bar

#

as far as I know it doesn't accept png there

polar kelp Nov 3, 2019, 10:46 PM

#

You could try mdi:snowflake

vapid field Nov 3, 2019, 10:46 PM

#

yes, I am using that, but my VD design it with the mdi:ac_unit 😉

old whale Nov 3, 2019, 10:46 PM

#

sorry, VD?

vapid field Nov 3, 2019, 10:46 PM

#

Visual Designer

#

I am doing a demo app where I would show some HA features

#

for our public site

polar kelp Nov 3, 2019, 10:47 PM

#

You could make and import your own iconset.

#

Here's an example https://github.com/thomasloven/hass-fontawesome

vapid field Nov 3, 2019, 10:48 PM

#

aha, will take into account for v2 ;)...not a priority right now

old whale Nov 3, 2019, 10:48 PM

#

I personally use mdi:air-conditioner

vapid field Nov 3, 2019, 10:49 PM

#

yes, but that looks weird with the rest of the icons at the top bar

#

anyway just a detail, to stick to my VD guidelines...

#

Other thing that she asked me was: if I was able to rotate the whole floorplan depending on the device and screen size...

#

Doesn't seem easy that, thoughts ?

polar kelp Nov 3, 2019, 10:50 PM

#

Not easily, no.

vapid field Nov 3, 2019, 10:51 PM

#

because all coordinates will change

#

I would have to mantain like 2

polar kelp Nov 3, 2019, 10:51 PM

#

yeah

#

With a bit of luck, that would only require transposition of the x and y coordinates, though.

vapid field Nov 3, 2019, 10:51 PM

#

and also.....how can I add the inteligence to determine the screen size and do the apopiate layout?

polar kelp Nov 3, 2019, 10:52 PM

#

That's the trickier part

vapid field Nov 3, 2019, 10:52 PM

#

because is not just the floorplan

#

there are other elements

polar kelp Nov 3, 2019, 10:52 PM

#

As far as I know, there's no way to do it currently. It's on my list, though...

vapid field Nov 3, 2019, 10:53 PM

#

I can share with you the app when it is ready

#

so you can see what I have right now, and what the VD pretended on other layoutrs

#

maybe it can help on your idea

#

now it is basically done for mobile devices

old whale Nov 3, 2019, 10:59 PM

Hey thomas, could you help me with this https://discordapp.com/channels/330944238910963714/460846676358332417/640636592591077406 ?

@old whale have you followed the FAQ regarding custom cards in general?

cyan ocean Nov 4, 2019, 3:24 AM

#

I'm in the process of moving my install from RPi 3 to RPi 4. I created a full snapshot, copied it to the new device, and restored it. It looks like everything is there, with the exception of my LoveLace design. It's just the basic UI. any suggestions?

atomic glacier Nov 4, 2019, 3:30 AM

#

@cyan ocean did you check the info page under Dev Tools?

cyan ocean Nov 4, 2019, 3:32 AM

#

@atomic glacier The old install says:
Lovelace
mode storage
resources 5
views 9

The new one says:
Lovelace
mode auto-gen

#

how do I switch modes?

atomic glacier Nov 4, 2019, 3:33 AM

#

is your ui-lovelace.yaml there?
should be right above that if I remember correct

#

I just switched to RPi4 as well

#

Sorry, forgot to ask if you are using lovelace: mode yaml ?

dark dirge Nov 4, 2019, 3:36 AM

#

Right, this is how you switch modes: https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/yaml-mode/

timid burrow Nov 4, 2019, 3:36 AM

#

he shows storage

#

@cyan ocean do you have a .storage/lovelace ?

#

if you do I think you just need to configure gui and take control and it should use that old file

#

it should have come over with the snapshot

cyan ocean Nov 4, 2019, 3:38 AM

#

stand by.... looking...

#

Yes - there is a .storage/lovelace file

#

I was using lovelace on the rpi3; though not with a homegrown .yaml - just using the GUI to build the interface.

timid burrow Nov 4, 2019, 3:40 AM

#

so in the GUI.. top right 3 dots click on configure and then take control.. maybe copy it first incase it blanks it out

#

don't understand why it didn't restore that

atomic glacier Nov 4, 2019, 3:40 AM

#

Thanks @timid burrow I really needa play around with the GUI sandbox plugin...at least to be more helpful with the new stuff😐

cyan ocean Nov 4, 2019, 3:44 AM

#

So, selecting "Take control" did wipe out the file. So I copied the original one in, and it's not showing the design (even after clearing the cache). perhaps I'll reboot?

#

Also - I noticed that none of my users got copied over.

timid burrow Nov 4, 2019, 3:44 AM

#

try stopping HA and copying it in and starting again

#

or in the old one, go into raw editor and copy/paste to a file and then copy/paste back in to raw mode

cyan ocean Nov 4, 2019, 3:46 AM

#

If you don't mind me asking - what's the "FW" in your username represent?

timid burrow Nov 4, 2019, 3:47 AM

#

initials

cyan ocean Nov 4, 2019, 3:47 AM

#

I live in Fort Worth, so when I saw FW...

timid burrow Nov 4, 2019, 3:47 AM

#

hahaha

cyan ocean Nov 4, 2019, 3:48 AM

#

Well, that got lovelace synced up. But it appears that most of my entities didn't transfer from the rpi3.

timid burrow Nov 4, 2019, 3:49 AM

#

so did the snapshot actually restore properly?

#

it can take a long time to restore BTW

cyan ocean Nov 4, 2019, 3:49 AM

#

I thought so. but, apparently not. I did the restore at 8am today.

#

Maybe I'll start again and leave it overnight.

timid burrow Nov 4, 2019, 3:51 AM

#

check that all the yaml files etc are in the snapshot.. you need to open through about 3 zip files within the snapshot but you can see exactly what has been saved in there

cyan ocean Nov 4, 2019, 3:54 AM

#

it definitely looks like they're all in there

#

I'll try restoring the snapshot again and see what that gets me. I was a little disappointed, because it seemed like it should be pretty straightforward.

timid burrow Nov 4, 2019, 3:56 AM

#

yeah it is straightforward but you need to be patient

cyan ocean Nov 4, 2019, 3:56 AM

#

What I have noticed is alot of processes in HA lack sufficient status messages. So it's hard to know when something is complete.

timid burrow Nov 4, 2019, 3:56 AM

#

I've used snapshots a lot

cyan ocean Nov 4, 2019, 3:56 AM

#

Okay - thank you, sir. I've created a lot of them, before doing any updates, but I've never had to restore any (thankfully!)

#

I appreciate your assistance.

timid burrow Nov 4, 2019, 3:57 AM

#

I agree... a message when it's complete would be nice. I don't think it's logged.... maybe if you set log to debug.... but I think it will restart HA when it's done as well

cyan ocean Nov 4, 2019, 3:58 AM

#

For example - I just clicked "restore selected". It asked if I'm sure, and I clicked Yes. So the dialog box is still up which allows me to choose what elements to restore. From an end-user perspective, there's no indication if I should just wait, of if I should close this panel, etc.

#

Hmm. okay - it just showed "Snapshot restore" (that was FAST)

timid burrow Nov 4, 2019, 3:58 AM

#

yep

cyan ocean Nov 4, 2019, 3:59 AM

#

I'll do a full reboot now and see where that lands me

timid burrow Nov 4, 2019, 3:59 AM

#

or just restart HA from the frontend

#

also make sure it has your addons and they are started as well

cyan ocean Nov 4, 2019, 4:05 AM

#

Nope - that didn't do it. I'm creating a new snapshot from the pi3 and will try again.

mint geode Nov 4, 2019, 8:22 AM

#

Anyone knows something similar but for the Logitech harmony? https://github.com/iantrich/roku-card/blob/master/README.md

mint geode Nov 4, 2019, 9:53 AM

#

Just read through it again, should work with harmony as well I think

night talon Nov 4, 2019, 12:00 PM

#

What are you trying to do? I use this card with Harmony. For remote use your harmony entity, for media put your roku media player entity.

cyan ocean Nov 4, 2019, 2:18 PM

#

@timid burrow I created a new full snapshot on my (old) rPi3. Strangely, it was considerably smaller than the previous snapshot (154MB vs 254MB). Restored it to the new rPi4 and rebooted - everything seems to be there - users, lovelace, etc.

mint geode Nov 4, 2019, 2:33 PM

#

@night talon yes I know it should work now that I read it again

mild veldt Nov 4, 2019, 2:40 PM

#

@mint geode let me know how it goes for you. Just did a rewrite of a lot of it with some new features, so let me know if anything is bumpy

mint geode Nov 4, 2019, 2:42 PM

#

I’ll configure the card now, but I can’t test it before the weekend but sure 😉

old whale Nov 4, 2019, 9:35 PM

#

see, it works, but the entity_picture images dont appear

does that mean restart server or refresh browser?

#

I keep getting No card type configured.

#

I'm unsure why

muted inlet Nov 4, 2019, 10:11 PM

#

so you added it through HACS and then added the lines to the lovelace file?

faint bloom Nov 4, 2019, 10:11 PM

#

bottom the file okay?

muted inlet Nov 4, 2019, 10:12 PM

#

#

create it

faint bloom Nov 4, 2019, 10:12 PM

#

bottom of the file okay?

muted inlet Nov 4, 2019, 10:12 PM

#

wherever, yeah

#

the order of top-level keys doesn't matter in YAML

faint bloom Nov 4, 2019, 10:13 PM

#

okay then yeah

#

I pasted it in at the bottom of the raw editor

  - url: /community_plugin/button-card/button-card.js
    type: module```

muted inlet Nov 4, 2019, 10:15 PM

#

should be good then, save and then refresh your browser

#

then you should be able to configure the card with the manual card editor. there won't be a button for it when you go to add a new card

faint bloom Nov 4, 2019, 10:16 PM

#

same thing

#

no card type configured in a red box

muted inlet Nov 4, 2019, 10:17 PM

#

putting - type: "custom:button-card" in the manual card editor says no card type configured?

faint bloom Nov 4, 2019, 10:18 PM

#

- type: 'custom:button-card'```

wheat current Nov 4, 2019, 10:18 PM

ever flippin example has a hyphen, they tricked me

#

usually i'm good at catching that stuff...

#

yeah i'm not sure why they're like that

faint bloom Nov 4, 2019, 10:20 PM

#

specifically to trick me I think 🙂

muted inlet Nov 4, 2019, 10:20 PM

#

prolly

wheat current Nov 4, 2019, 10:20 PM

#

That's needed when you add it in yaml mode or raw editor

muted inlet Nov 4, 2019, 10:20 PM

#

ah right

#

that makes sense

#

i've only ever used the UI for adding cards

wheat current Nov 4, 2019, 10:20 PM

#

My guess is that most of the devs uses that and not the pretty manual card option

faint bloom Nov 4, 2019, 10:27 PM

#

well heck, I'll try dash removals next go around

#

thanks!

vernal gazelle Nov 5, 2019, 3:18 PM

#

@polar kelp Quick Noob question - do you have to use panel mode for the - break to work correctly in the layout-card?

polar kelp Nov 5, 2019, 3:20 PM

#

If you don't use panel mode, the layout-card will get as much space in the layout as any other card - 300-600 pixels - and will try to squeeze everything into that width. Break will work, but by default, you'll only have room for one column, so the next one will be placed under the first.

vernal gazelle Nov 5, 2019, 3:21 PM

#

Thank you - makes sense.

@polar kelp Is browser_mod limited to newer android versions? I have an older phone, LG G3 with android 6, and I am running premium version of fully, and I do not get a light, sensor, or binary_sensor

polar kelp Nov 5, 2019, 3:26 PM

#

It requires a rather new (like 6 months) version of Fully Kiosk. They made a small undocumented change that broke everything...

#

I have 1.35.2

#

which is newest I believe

polar kelp Nov 5, 2019, 3:31 PM

Then it should work.

#

Make sure you've cleared your cache. There's a button for that in the web interface.

thorny verge Nov 5, 2019, 3:32 PM

#

It showed up once, but never again. I've tried that, but I will try again.

polar kelp Nov 5, 2019, 3:32 PM

no

#

Does it work with your computers browser?

thorny verge Nov 5, 2019, 3:33 PM

I cleared cache, restarted HA, still nothing

Is it possible to use a live website as background and put (transparent) button cards over that?

What do you mean? Like having amazon.com as your lovelace background?

wheat current Nov 5, 2019, 7:14 PM

#

that sounds messy

polar kelp Nov 5, 2019, 7:19 PM

#

@muted inlet To be fair, I think I've only seen three carefullies today...

#

@elder pendant Here's a part of card-mod. It waits for the hui-entities-card element to become defined, and then goes into it and replaces one of it's functions - renderEntity with my own version, which first runs the original and then modifies the results before returning. You should be able to do something similar. https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-card-mod/blob/master/src/hui-entities-card.js#L4-L29

#

If you load it as extra_module_url it will most likely be loaded in before ha-code-editor too, so you won't have to worry about race conditions or anything.

#

Adding the styles in the index template probably won't work, because the code editor uses shadow roots and live in it's own isolated bubble.

elder pendant Nov 5, 2019, 7:34 PM

#

Well right now I'm trying to figure out how to load a directory of css files properly to fit home-assistant-polymer standards. I'm guessing it would have to be done within the code-editor component ts file, but I'm still puzzling it out.
I know Ian said it wouldn't be worth creating a 1 to 1 mapping of CodeMirror theme to HA theme, but I'm starting to think this is the only way to do it if we want to give users full control of the syntax colors. Selecting from the predefined CodeMirror themes is starting to seem lazy to me, so loading the css files might not be necessary if we implement the ability to essentially create your own code-editor theme

#

thanks for the tips though, I will store that in my toolbox for the future

wheat current Nov 5, 2019, 7:35 PM

#

What about https://www.npmjs.com/package/code-mirror-themes?

elder pendant Nov 5, 2019, 7:38 PM

#

CodeMirror already has built-in theming, it's a matter of how to tie it into HA themes

#

that package may have been made before themes were a thing. It's 3 years old

devout loom Nov 5, 2019, 7:40 PM

#

@elder pendant I want to use Dakboard as a background, and just have like 5 custom button card on top. Cause I don't use HA for that much, so if I can avoid doing UI in code mostly, I would do so

#

So if I could just iFrame the whole thing and add a couple of buttons on top, that would be the best

wheat current Nov 5, 2019, 7:40 PM

#

Do that then

devout loom Nov 5, 2019, 7:41 PM

Can I talk about some weirdness in a history-graph card that's had additional entities added to it over time?

#

I had a history-graph that's been logging two temperature sensors for almost 6 months now - The values are coming in from the sensors (a rest sensor, with the incoming units configured to C) and HASS.IO is set to Fahrenheit, so a conversion is happening internally, and all my values are showing up in the card in F, which is good. So I have a nice long database file with all these old values from the two original sensors in there that are graphing nicely. But THEN, I added the new sensors that I brought online this morning, and some goofball stuff starts happening. It's showing them in a separate graph, and with units of C on the graph, but values of F. States shows everything in F as the proper values though. Check it out..

#

https://imgur.com/a/38FWDxA

#

All of the entities are showing up as F in entities cards (on the same page even)

#

Is this just some weirdness of the old and the new previously nonexistent data showing up in the history-graph?

polar kelp Nov 6, 2019, 8:34 PM

#

Have you configured all sensors with unit_of_measurement?

kind shellBOT Nov 6, 2019, 8:34 PM

#

@lime warren posted a message that is too long, it is moved here --> https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/NNHjvYjX6n/

lime warren Nov 6, 2019, 8:35 PM

#

yes @polar kelp - That was my first thought

#

https://imgur.com/a/VCe7P89 for another view

#

When I pull up a state, it reads
unit_of_measurement: °F friendly_name: Inverter Temperature device_class: temperature

#

and like I said, my entity cards show up completely as expected

#

but why on earth is it breaking it up in to two graphs I wonder

#

My hunch is that this will all go away once all of the logs end up the same length

#

(and are trimmed to 10 days) but why isn't it happening on the "power" - Perhaps because no internal numerical conversion is going on with that number?

#

as it's not an imperial vs metric value

#

So one idea I have is that I have certain values on those original two sensors excluded from logging, but temperature isn't one of them. I've gone ahead and excluded them in recorder, logbook, and history for the new weird ones that are showing up in C, but again, none of these excluded readings are ones that I'm displaying. Why? I want to level the playing field for all of these things and see what happens.

#

Restarted - Still in goofball mode. This is a weird one.

elder pendant Nov 6, 2019, 8:49 PM

#

Changing config entries will not change history. It's already been recorded

lime warren Nov 6, 2019, 8:50 PM

#

I figured as much. And in my history graphs, when I change the log length to 1 hour, it's still breaking them out in to two graphs

#

but when I set it to FOUR hours, it puts them in one graph, but puts the units in C

#

OK so here's one...

#

but... OK now in the history graph, if I set a device_class: temperature on the entity (even though that's in the STATE) only THEN does it show units in F

#

It seems like doing this:

      - entity: sensor.module_1_renesola_module_temp
        name: Module 1
        device_class: temperature
        unit_of_measurement: °F
      - entity: sensor.module_2_renesola_module_temp
        name: Module 2
        device_class: temperature
        unit_of_measurement: °F
      - entity: sensor.module_3_renesola_module_temp
        name: Module 3
        device_class: temperature
        unit_of_measurement: °F```

#

does NOTHING, but doesn't throw an error. But it still shows in C

#

oh man - This is some squirreley stuff here - Listen to this...

#

Changing the length of the displayed time in the history-graph GUI card editor changes the units.

violet depot Nov 6, 2019, 9:04 PM

#

So if the history was previously C, and now its in F...if you try to display the mixed history it might be getting confuse

#

*confused

#

?

lime warren Nov 6, 2019, 9:05 PM

#

I think I understand what's going on - There are gaps in the data

violet depot Nov 6, 2019, 9:05 PM

#

It wont convert the older data into F.

lime warren Nov 6, 2019, 9:06 PM

#

and IF the beginning of the history-graph data is in a gap, then it screws up the units

#

The actual numerical figures are all coming in as F in the states - Everything is, you know, 102 degrees,

#

Let me paste a few pictures.

#

This is completely bananas, and has everything to do with the amount of time shown

#

https://imgur.com/a/g0LOulw

#

But I want to add that there are actual GAPS in the data, from when the sensors go offline at night. My other power readings don't have gaps, they just go to zero

#

Here's the chunk of the REST sensor that is pretty explanatory

        device_class: temperature
        unit_of_measurement: '°C'
        friendly_name: 'Inverter Temperature'
# Here we're doing something goofy - We're NOT commiting the temperature reading if the value drops 
# to something bonkers like -100, which is what it does when the inverters disconnect at night.
# again, no need to grind the SD card, and -100 values make your charts scale to something ugly. 
        value_template: >-
          {% set magic = states('sensor.renesola_module_1').split('\n')[1].split(' ')[7] %}
          {% if magic|float > -50 %}
          {{ magic }}
          {% else %}
           ''
          {% endif %}```

#

So I'm trimming garbage data but subbing in a null instead of a numerical value

#

but why a null value clobbers the graph is beyond me. And I think this has been going on forever, but I never bother to look at the graphs at night, when 24, 48 and 72 hours prior would start the graph in a null data area of the database

#

but I DID notice it today, because I just brought them online this morning, and 24 hours prior, the newly commissioned sensors in question had null data while the first two DID have data.

#

hence why their units went kerplooky and then two graphs happened.

Hi I'm new to Home Assistant and lovelace

#

curious to know though before I start diving in more if anyone knows if you can add a panel with a browser window in it in the UI?

#

I ask because spotify allows you to run their browser based version and instead of using the spotify card with limited features, I wonder if I could run the browser version of spotify in the UI

if you can put it in an iframe you should be able to do that

mental kayak Nov 6, 2019, 11:17 PM

#

Does anyone here have Spotify and can test in an iframe for me? I just tried installing hass.io on my mac but I'm getting a bunch of dependency errors

#

https://open.spotify.com/ is the address if so

@polar kelp "Add back dummies for deprecated functions" Thank you my lovely deprecated popups are working again 🎉 ...I know...🙄 it's deprecated 😢
EDIT: Get first image on 2.1 and second image on v0.4.2 🤷🏻 https://imgur.com/a/dDgl7uS

@mental kayak just load HASS.IO on a Raspberry Pi and lock it in a closet somewhere. It runs 100% perfectly out of the box. The money you'll save on the power bill from not running your mac 24/7 will quickly pay for the cost of the Raspberry Pi. Not even joking.

Was there a change to brightness_pct:? It stopped working in some of my scenes. Switch to using brightness: and it is fine. I can't see anything in the release notes...

errant plover Nov 7, 2019, 11:22 AM

#

Yeah the breaking changes around scenes were missed from the release docs. There has been quite a bit of discussion in the community forum thread for the release. This is the PR https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant/pull/27182 Read the "additional comments"

is it possible to use a template to define the name of an entity in an Entities card?

thanks, I will have a look

#

@lime warren I plan on doing that, but I wanted to test this Spotify iframe thing first before I got the pi

mental kayak Nov 7, 2019, 6:20 PM

#

I tried using the demo environment of lovelace and add an iframe to a new view but I get "Looks like you've followed a broken link or entered a URL that doesn't exist on this site" when I paste in the iframe code for Spotify

mild veldt Nov 7, 2019, 6:29 PM

#

@mental kayak the page is configured so that it disallows embedding

mental kayak Nov 7, 2019, 6:32 PM

#

oh okay makes sense. Looks like Spotify also limits you when using iFrames so it only plays a short snippet of the song

lime warren Nov 7, 2019, 6:33 PM

#

Well, I guess that leaves piracy.

muted inlet Nov 7, 2019, 6:33 PM

banned

mild veldt Nov 7, 2019, 6:33 PM

They we're probably just joking

#

hopefully...

muted inlet Nov 7, 2019, 6:33 PM

#

Yeah lol

lime warren Nov 7, 2019, 6:33 PM

#

yes, they probably were.

muted inlet Nov 7, 2019, 6:34 PM

#

you wouldn't download a car

#

I absolutely would

lime warren Nov 7, 2019, 6:35 PM

#

I wouldn't pay for a subscription I couldn't use. But I do pay for Youtube Red (is it still called that?)

muted inlet Nov 7, 2019, 6:35 PM

#

YouTube Premium

mild veldt Nov 7, 2019, 6:35 PM

#

anyways, @mental kayak I can understand wanting to have HA be your all in one dashboard but bringing in the full spotify UI into it is also a bit much. You could always put out feature requests for the spotify card if you're looking for a specific thing

muted inlet Nov 7, 2019, 6:35 PM

#

Which makes it sound like an adult video service

ashen kindle Nov 7, 2019, 6:36 PM

#

@muted inlet I'd argue YouTube Red made it sound more like an adult video service.

lime warren Nov 7, 2019, 6:36 PM

That's youtube pink

lime warren Nov 7, 2019, 6:36 PM

#

At any rate, how exactly does embedding in an iFrame threaten Spotify's revenue stream?

ashen kindle Nov 7, 2019, 6:36 PM

#

Or that other site with "Red" and "Tube" in the name.

#

Can't remember exactly which though...

muted inlet Nov 7, 2019, 6:37 PM

#

TubeRed? Never heard of it

lime warren Nov 7, 2019, 6:37 PM

#

You're thinking of Node Red, but you're using it wrong.

muted inlet Nov 7, 2019, 6:37 PM

#

Ahhh that's it

ashen kindle Nov 7, 2019, 6:37 PM

If my wife asks, me neither.

#

Okay, I'm done. Back to Lovelace discussion.

Apparently there's no gavel emoji

Or I would've said order in the court

Is there any way to crunch down an "entities" card so the entries aren't, for all practical purposes, double-spaced?

muted inlet Nov 7, 2019, 6:44 PM

#

There might be a custom card

wheat current Nov 7, 2019, 6:44 PM

#

card-mod + ccs magic can probably do that

muted inlet Nov 7, 2019, 6:45 PM

#

But the spacing is there for the A E S T H E T I C

lime warren Nov 7, 2019, 6:47 PM

#

It's nice for almost everything, but I'm a bit data-heavy in this application

muted inlet Nov 7, 2019, 6:47 PM

#

Yeah I'd be interested in a more compact entities card

#

Maybe we could call it the "compact entities card"
