spare meadow
are you sure? this is under the section 'Services'
muted inlet
service_data is only used in lovelace cards, not automations
spare meadow
any chanc eyou know what the proper keyword is?
muted inlet
in automations/scripts it's data or data_template
muted inlet
also data_template is only if there's a template in the service data
but it'll work even if there's no template, it's just unnecessary

Thanks for the info @proper mesa did you have to mod your Fire at all with any launchers by rooting it?

I have this template that is working as expected, is it possible to add an "OR" and another series of "ANDS" after that? Essentially grouping two groups of AND statements with an OR so if either is true the sensor is on?
value_template: >-
{{ is_state('binary_sensor.workday', 'on')
and is_state('binary_sensor.schoolhours', 'off')
and is_state('binary_sensor.sleeping_weekday', 'off')
and is_state('binary_sensor.someone_home', 'on') }}
yeah, just wrap each section of ANDs in parentheses
strong falcon
i was hoping that it would be that simple, thanks

Heyo I have a question about sensors in automations, how to I access specific states from a sensor? Example https://prnt.sc/q20slf what do I need to enter to get the game for example, I'd like to have something happen if I start a specific game.
elder pendant
Those are called “attributes”. You can make a template sensor to pull out that attribute. Ask in #330944238910963714 if you need more information, this channel is for frontend questions

Hey there, I seem to be unable to add sensors to the top of my UI as small icons. I had the sensors in a card and a group and for some reason when I remove them from both they dont appear with my device trackers and weather icons at the top. Any idea as to what setting I might be forgetting ? Cheers !

They don't automatically move, thats up to you. Edit the view badges to add them

Hello guys. I love the scene editor. I added one scene as entity in my lovelace. I can enable it but can't disable it. Any idea how this could be done?
sacred quarry
Hi guys, I am playing around a bit more with the decluttering card in order to reduce the size of my views (due to graphs mainly) and for temperature I do use mini-pgrah-card with config-template-card, but I need now to "move" this into decluttering but without set static variables.. I tried this: - entity: [[entity]] - binary_sensor.night_time variables: - states['sensor.[[entity]]'].state
sacred quarry
@mild veldt by any chance do you know how could I achieve that?
mild veldt
i've never played with the decluttering card
sacred quarry
I see, I thought it was more related to "[ [[]] ]" rather then strictly the card 🙂 Thanks anyway
mild veldt
that's not how it would look to the decluttering card. I haven't looked at its source, but it is likely looking for the '[[' pattern. not '[*[', where '*' is a wildcard
polar kelp
wouldn't entity be sensor.whatever anyway?
mild veldt
are you trying to use variables inside variables @sacred quarry ?
🤷♂️ from that small snippet I have no idea what is going on and don't know anything really about the decluttering card
sacred quarry
This is an example: ``` type: custom:config-template-card
entities:
- binary_sensor.night_time
- input_number.night_time
- sensor.living_room_temperature
variables:
- states['sensor.living_room_temperature'].state
unless I am using the variables wrongly, I need to dynamically replace the variable from what comes from the decluttering card
the variable for decluttering card is [[entity]]
so in "entities:" it works perfectly, but in variables (if I am using them correctly) I need only to replace "sensor.living_room_temperature" and not the rest with the "[[entity]]" variable
That card allow to have a variable as part of text (ex: icon: 'mdi:[[icon]]') but I think in my case the problem is that inside "variables" I do already have the [ and somehow that causes an issue
Hope it make a little more sense now, if not let me know and I'll try again 😄
polar kelp
right click your card, select Inspect, make sure <config-template-card is selected and type $0._config into the console. See what you really get.
sacred quarry
The original with variables pre-configured or the decluttering card attempt of it?

ok no.. I tested it 😄

mild veldt
i thought you were doing stuff with decluttering card...?
elder pendant
Please don't repost the same thing that the bot just deleted for being too long
sacred quarry
Sorry @elder pendant I was trying to write a full sentence, that's why it was moved away so I simply splitted it.. I'll avoid that next time
mild veldt
if you're just doing config-template-card, cool, we can figure that out. if you're trying to mix and match with decluttering card...i'm not up for figuring that out
sacred quarry
Yes I am trying to use decluttering, but the problem is the use of the variable inside the config-template-card, if I can move the "states['XXX'].state" bit inside the "icon" bit, I can use [[entity]] as variable and this would fix my problem basically
Sounds confusing I know and I am sorry
mild veldt
so things work with config-template-card, but you're trying to move it to decluttering so you don't have duplicate configs, right? sounds like a decluttering card issue then and not something i know about
sacred quarry
Correct
I am not 100% sure where the problems "sit", but what I know is that if I move the "states[' '].state" inside the "icon" line, I fix the "compatibility" problem
Basically this bit here now is preventing me to have it working "${states['vars[0]'].state" , but it is also true that this approach is kind of a workaround
I've created an issue in the decluttering-card github repo: https://github.com/custom-cards/decluttering-card/issues/11 But the error I got in console is still the config-template-card 🙂 Not sure it is because the decluttering-card is not replacing the variable correctly or what else.

charred zealot
hi - installing a custom card for the first time. there's a snippet in the documentation which says to add the following to my lovelace config. how do i do this from the UI editor?
Add the following to resources in your lovelace config:
resources:
- url: /community_plugin/weather-card/weather-card.js
type: module
You need to use the raw config editor. While in edit mode click the same three dots that had the option to enter edit mode. You will see an option for raw config
charred zealot
ok cool, just found that
resources is a root yaml key?
i.e. indented to the left the most?
or does it go under the views: key?
charred zealot
👍
sullen nymph
@elder pendant That was it. Thanks. I added the key it wasn't in any of the themes.
elder pendant
It's a newer key

Is there a list of keys somewhere?

Got it. Thanks again for your help.
mellow lark
Just a quick poll - do you manage your lovelace ui via yaml or the UI editor?
split granite
Yes
mellow lark
Can you do both?
I thought if the mode was set to yaml the UI editor would stop working.
mild veldt
correct
modern breach
but usign the raw editor in ui mode works fine
split granite
You asked if folks used one or the other - and I do 😛
Most folks IMO should be using the UI editor. It's only folks who want to use secrets or anchors that should be using YAML. Oh, and holdouts like me...
proper mesa
@clear dome no my tablet isn't rooted although i'm thinking of it since it seems there's a 100% software way now for rooting it. Last time i checked it was only hardware - but i probably won't gain any speed in doing that. The cpu is cr*p anyway.
But i follow -that guide- that tells you how to skip the amazon account part in order to be able to install the google play service and play store.
I think that if you's download the APK and adb install app.apk it'd work.. but still, the play store might anyway come handy

Hi all, Im having a whale of a time trying to get some lovelace things working. after failing on the slider-row thing, someone suggested using HACS, but that's tossing me an error I cant resovle " No module named 'aiogithubapi'" I've tried every which way to install it, and I see its added, but HA just doesn't. Im running Hassbian. Can someone help?
mellow lark
@split granite in my early playing with the UI editor, (I had done some yaml for lovelace during beta then walked away for a bit), it seems like the UI editor doesn't let you control the stacks (or I'm missing it).
split granite
Other than the two things I mentioned, you can do everything in the UI editor you can do with YAML
Heck, it has a raw editor in which you can enter YAML
mellow lark
Ok, maybe I'm missing how you group some cards into a stack (vert or horiz)
mild veldt
@mellow lark there is not a UI editor built for stacks yet, but that doesn't stop you from using stacks when in storage mode
split granite
Should be quite do-able with the raw editor?
mellow lark
So basically cut and paste the yaml from the other cards in the stack's yaml?
mint mauve
can I ask a question here about card-mod or has it to be in #general-archived ?

🙂 Ok, thanks. As far as I can see (and followed the steps on Github) I have done everything right to install card-mod, I have places the JS in a sub directory in www and I have entered the path in de raw config... I can't seem to use the styles in the cards.. I think I am missing something, is it correct that there is only one JS scrpt from Github I had to use? (casue there are many others) sorry if it's a 'open door' question, but I am learning 🙂

Your buttons are missing an entity. It's required by the card https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/entity-button/#entity

@mild veldt card-mod does not require card-tools. None of the plugins in hacs (with the blue diamond) does.

I have installed https://github.com/dnguyen800/air-visual-card using HACS, but I'm having trouble understanding how to actually activate the card. I have toggled manual UI editor and I assume I should add some rows via the raw config editor
Click on Install, and be sure to include the following in your ui-lovelace.yaml.
- url: /community_plugin/air-visual-card/air-visual-card.js
type: js
Write configuration for the card in your ui-lovelace.yaml and list your AirVisual sensors. An example is provided below:
- type: custom:air-visual-card
air_pollution_level: sensor.us_air_pollution_level
air_quality_index: sensor.us_air_quality_index

Hello all, I have the card-mod working (at least I can change font colors) but what I want to achieve is formating the cards and the entities so that they have a equal size on the screen... I just don;t get it how to do this, havent found a good example neither...anyone a clue ? Now the cards are all different sizes and that is just not nice 🙂
mental kayak
hey @mint mauve did you get that working for a custom card by chance?
mint mauve
@mental kayak not for a custom card, but did you get any result on other cards with card-mod? If you don't perhaps the setting to the JS file in raw config isn't right? at least it was for me the problem 🙂

@sacred quarry yes

Hi @polar kelp , I knew you might know, didn't want to disturb you over and over again 😄 I tried to use not with two different "state:" lines but it didn't seems to work, I also tried two "not" options separately but again, no luck
test #1
options:
name: CC2531 Router - Link Quality
tap_action:
action: none
not:
state: "unknown"
state: "unavailable"

options:
name: CC2531 Router - Link Quality
tap_action:

not:
state: "unknown"
not:
state: "unavailable"
Of course I was able to achieve the result using state: "un*" but I was curious to understand if I had more "control" on it 🙂
sacred quarry
Oh so I have to repeat the whole "entity_id" block?
That I did find out but I thought there might be a "cleanest" way 😄
Because doing that way of course it will show the same entity twice when it's not any of those two states, both conditions would be true and it will be show twice 🙂 Unless I missunderstood ^^

tried resolving my issue and so under .storage I renamed my lovelace file restarted and got a whole new lovelace as if I started over, so I then went to .storage and removed the new lovelace file and renamed my old file back to lovelace and restarted...
now my lovelace ui just gives an error Expecting value: line 136 column 33 (char 5709)
anyone have a clue?
theres an option to reload lovelace however goes back to the same error
guess I'll delete the file and start over
errant plover
You probably only had to Ctrl+F5
polar kelp
@sacred quarry I think what you need is ```yaml
include:
- entity_id ...
options:

not 1:
state: "unknown"
not 2:
state: "unavailable"```
Or... I guess yaml not: state: "un*"
sacred quarry
The un* works as I wrote, but "not 1" and "not 2" are actually going to work?
polar kelp
It should. That would match entities which satisfies have the correct entity_id AND is not in unknown state AND is not in unavailable state.

new to HA, and am not 100% sure what is possible with what you're trying, but if you are able to use plain HTML in the markdown (which markdown SHOULD support, although it's not exactly a followed standard), in which case you'd do: <a href="http://google.com" target="_blank">click here</a>
and with CSS you can make that look fancy

I'd like to display a web page on my dashboard. However, I'd like to only display a part of the web page. I know that I can achieve this with html iframe, but is it possible to actually use the iframe code with a card to achieve the result?
For example, here you can see the iframe code I created to view only the desired part of the website: https://jsfiddle.net/adws6f43/
wheat current
1: Save that in www/
2: Use http(s)://instance/local/something in the Lovelace iframe card
hexed bramble
Got it working, thanks
Also used html-card and it works just fine (https://github.com/PiotrMachowski/lovelace-html-card)
Now I just need to change the width and/or zoom level of the card, seems like card-mod is the tool for that https://community.home-assistant.io/t/card-mod-add-css-styles-to-any-lovelace-card/120744
polar kelp
Is that the Gulf of Finland?
hexed bramble
Yes
@polar kelp could you give me a little pointer how to change the width of a iframe card? I tried to inspect the element and ended with
style: |
ha-card {
width: 200%;
}
But that doesn't work (the spaces are wrong above but right on my lovelace editor)
polar kelp
Card widths are limited by the layout. If you want to change it, your best bet is using panel-mode.
hexed bramble
Ahh, that sucks
polar kelp
Second best is layout-card

Well, thank you for helping me!

Question - is it possible to remove the "Home Assistant" name from the UI top left?
I know tihs is a lovelace forum - but thought this would be the appriopriate place to ask - since it is the front end 🙂

CCH can get rid of it: https://maykar.github.io/compact-custom-header/
or at least shrink the header so that space is gone

Hi, im quit new to home assistant and i'm having a hard time configuring the views. I tryed to replicate something done in the demo from Isabella Gross Alström. I want my presence detection for my systems to change colore if the system is offline. I allready set up the template sensors displaying Online or Offline and i copyed the customize_glob template for the sensors. If i look at them the template has been applyed but hs_color has not been set.
I'm also not really sure about the hs_color option. I was not able to find anything about it in the documentation.
dark dirge
I believe you'll need CustomUI installed to do what you want: https://github.com/andrey-git/home-assistant-custom-ui
here's an example from my customize.yaml using hs_color:
cover.garage_door:
templates:
hs_color: if (state === 'open') return [0,100] ; else return [120,100];
brightness: return 100;
Thanks, i think i need to look into that some more, i thing i got it installed and activated but still nothing
dark dirge
3 things to check: go into dev tools (
)->Info and see if it mentions CustomUI, make sure that the state of the sensor changes, and force refresh in the browser (ignore cache)
polar girder
Thanks, it was cached 🙂
thank you very much, it works great now. I'll look into what other stuff custom-ui can do.

vapid field
Using 'custom:circle-sensor-card' , Any ideas/suggestions on going about resizing them? I understand the default card has no way to do so..
sullen stream
ok... I finally have an interface question.... not sure if it's a good one. I have a sensor that is working and all that sends me notifications, all is good. But..... on its' tile there is a slider button that toggles to on/off..... it seems to have absolutely no effect. Is this common? and have I wired up something incorrectly. Thanks in advance.
@vapid field is that a good link for sharing screenshots? do you pay for that service?
sullen stream
forgive me for not completely understanding... so share X is a screen capture tool for Windows... I can grok that.... but.... the link etc?
the reason I ask, is I find myself wanting to share screenshots from time to time and you've done it.
vapid field
Right right
so ShareX is the program I use and I use a " custom uploader " inside of the app.. You can select imgur ect but I would rather have control over where it goes because of what I share sometimes and I would like to go back and delete from the server 🙂
I could share my php script, all you would need is a webserver and a domain..
sullen stream
I have a domain.....so the webserver could be hosted or you mean something like the Pi with HA on it?
I have both.
vapid field
I mean.. You could use the Pi but I personally just would want a separate device if I'm going to give the URL to strangers

@vapid field ok.... if you want to share the script.... plus any links to setting up a pi server for sending strangers to see screenshots would be appreciated.

thorny verge
is there any way to make a card scrollable?
Want to use the custom calendar card, but have it take up a set height, and still be able to scroll through 7 days.
Right now I achieve it by creating a view for just the calendar, the showing that view in a iframe, but it is not ideal with reloads.
mild veldt
@thorny verge restricting the height with card-mod might work. Not sure
thorny verge
I did try that, but then it sometimes cuts the card off at a weird spot, doesn't look quite right.
Plus scrollable is perfect for a calendar card. Works in iframe, just not great, and didn't know if there was a better way.
mild veldt
@thorny verge you might need to add overflow: scroll as well
thorny verge
Oh, sweet, is that added in style: ?
mild veldt
yeah, card-mod

@mental kayak works mostly the same as height, but height looks better on a refresh (max-height shows small height until redraw finished)

Would someone be willing to look at my yaml to see why the card is not showing? Thanks https://pastebin.com/yyJKFjYG
Do I need to manually add a view or something?
Here's where I'm losing his train of thought. " then, open the lovelace.yaml file and set up a separate View for the floor plan. You also want to set up the View as a panel so like that the Picture Elements card displays in full width." ....
The reason is: I do not have any "views" in my ui-lovelace.yaml file.
per the docs do I need this in my configuration.yaml file?

Hi. I have the following problem: I have a wall tablet with Chrome (Win 8.1) and HADashboard. If the screen turns off after one minute, the status and time will not update. When I open HADashboard in the Internet explorer everything is going great, but I can not switch anything. Hadashboard and Lovelace makes no difference. Chrome or Firefox also makes no difference.
mild veldt
Well this is lovelace channel, so let's focus on lovelace. My guess would that you machine goes to sleep and the websocket connection gets severed within the browser

@iantrich#6541 I want to use Lovelace. I only tried HADashboard because I wanted to know if the problem is there.

Sounds like a system/browser issue. A few solutions that come to mind:
- Reload the page when you wake the device up
- Disable the screen/sleep function
- Use a screen saver

the search for floorplan wisdom begins

the problem I have with the: https://github.com/pkozul/lovelace-floorplan/tree/master/www/floorplan/examples/simple
is where at the very bottom they say:
Then add the following to your Lovelace configuration:
I interpret this as adding it to the /config/ui-lovelace.yaml file...
sullen stream
would that mean then that the "default_config:" setting in the configuration.yaml file was turned off?
and what ramifications would there be since the comment says that that controls the (frontend, api, etc)?
viral sorrel
I'm currently going with using the web editor and that would use the raw editor.. I presume it should still work with a manually configured ui-lovelace.yaml
the pasted part looks like one view in the config
sullen stream
ok.... so you're pretty sure you need an .svg right?
I guess I'm looking for the best way to do it... and there doesn't seem to be one. I assume you have more HA experience then me as I've only been doing this for about 3 months.
viral sorrel
absolutely.. at least for this component
sullen stream
ok... so what about the Juan M Tech is different?
viral sorrel
I thin he's just using a method that doesn't require a custom component. fully manual
sullen stream
it looks like he did a simple image and used CSS positioning to place buttons over it.
viral sorrel
I do wish someone did a comparison and tutorial of the different ways of doing this along with the pros and cons
viral sorrel
yeah but mine is currently a mess.. it's currently all ad-hoc.. having trouble coming up with ways I'm happy to represent things so that I don't have to keep jumping between views.. a floorplan might just be that
sullen stream
Is there a simple way that we could test out Juan's way and/or the one you shared quickly and then revert back?
viral sorrel
when he wrote that tutorial the custom component didn't exist yet (for lovelace)..
viral sorrel
well the one I shared has the simple example which should jsut work.. I may try it after lunch
I got it via the HACS custom component

can i set the width for one of the columns larger?

You can use https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/views/#panel to get rid of the space

yes but how
elder pendant
!include

like && or something

Hmm, bummer. Best way to create a template sensor with a state image of that then?
split granite
Not sure I understand... it's just a string, you create a template sensor of that attribute, and that string becomes the state of that new sensor

Was thinking that I could get a few things done in one sensor because there's some other attributes there which would be handy to use in Lovelace like "media_title" and the actual state.

I'm trying to get the remaining time of a timer to show in a glance card. If I ad the timer itself it's just "active" as that is it's state. So I created a sensor template to pick out the "remaining time" but it never updates. Is there any other way to achieve this?

@polar kelp is that a reply to me or above? 🙂

To you

@polar kelp Does not seem to work. https://pastebin.com/RZQzegBg
It might be a bug or something because if you actually look at a timer in Developer Tools>States you can tell that "renaining" does not update. I'm not sure where from the entity card get's the count down from.
Like this https://imgur.com/a/WchIs4W
polar kelp
Ah. I see.
I've been looking through the code, and the timer doesn't actually update itself very often, understandably - that would be a waste of resources.
The entities card calculates the time remaining by looking at the remaining attribute and the difference between the current time and the last_changed time of the timer.
fallen badge
@polar kelp Oh! Is it a dead end for glance cards then? Or could I go around it somehow?
polar kelp
I suppose you could do the same calculations in a template sensor... if you made sure it updates often enough.

No rush😉 just thought I'd pass it along

The hass frontend avoids downloading stuff that browser_mod uses (such as lovelace cards) unless necessary, so browser_mod sets up a hidden lovelace instance for a second to force it. But sometimes, if the connection is slow, it tries to do this before the backend has been able to tell the frontend that there's even such a thing as "lovelace", and that's where it fails.

I have added visible for my views where different users should see different parts. But when I log in all users see the first view even if the visible isn't set for that user. If I have a new created user that isn't set to see anything it see the first view. Is this working as intended or is this a bug?

Getting this console error Uncaught SyntaxError: Invalid or unexpected token .... VM2150 yaml.min.js:1 (pretty self explanatory... but lacking in skills dept. ) and I downloaded the file again, cleared cache, but the same error still persists. I am using Cloud9 IDE (running HA on Pi4 🙄 ) and it says Parsing error: Expecting Unicode escape sequence \uXXXX , but I don't know where exactly it should be. File was from here: https://github.com/pkozul/lovelace-floorplan/blob/master/www/floorplan/lib/yaml.min.js Is there another program or something I can use to locate what I am trying to fix? Kind of clueless here 🤔
@obsidian orbit I use https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-state-switch here: https://github.com/Dino-Tech/Home-Assistant-Main/blob/master/ui-lovelace.yaml#L1112-L1124 and it works flawlessly. Running for ever and all views are located within the main view.

Hey, guys!
How it's going?
I have some architectural question: what is the proper way to get data from influxdb (installed as influxdb add-on) and place it to Lovelace custom card?
Wanna do some periodic flux queries and put it in custom card.
split granite
Well, you'd have to pull it into sensors, and then you could display it however you want
willow knoll
I should write kinda custom component for that, right?

Yep, I found it, but seems it isn't support flux scripts. I need some features of flux like hourSelection() 😳

Hey everyone! So I dropped in a few days ago struggling with an issue of not being able to access the menu that has 'Raw Config' in lovelace... I'm definitely in the lovelace UI not in states. And I can see the 'Configure UI' button but not the 'Raw Config' button after I entire UI Configuration mode...
I first noticed this after trying to restore my system from a back up after an SD card pooped out on me...
If anyone has any suggestions I would really appreciate it! Also I would love to know where json/yaml for lovelace lives now. I know it's not recommended to edit it that way, but desperate times call for desperate measures and I'm wondering if I simplify my UI temporarily if I can fix the issue? Or perhaps a previous configuration has borked up the raw config UI?
mild veldt
file is .storage/lovelace
@boreal charm after you enter configuration mode, what is in the overflow menu where "configure UI" was?
boreal charm
@mild veldt the triple dot menu does not open at all.
mild veldt
but you're sure you are in edit mode?
I don't see how that is possible
Only thing I could fathom is that you are logged in as a non-admin user, so therefore cannot edit, but then you wouldn't have "Configure UI" as an option either
split granite
Corrupt file somewhere?
obsidian orbit
@mild veldt I have created the bug report, is it good enough to understand https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant-polymer/issues/4330 ?

What would be the easiest way to run some custom javascript code before showing an iframe?
Without learning how to build up a custom card
finite dragon
Is there anyway to change how a lovelace card displays? My thermostat card shows up funny in mobile. and I would like to change the spacing on the modes to make it fit.
elder pendant
@tame crescent so you want to know how to do something without learning how to do it?
muted inlet
@crimson fable if I understand you correctly, the thermostat card supports an high and low temp for heat_cool (auto) mode
limber fjord
Is it possible to have the the alarm panel card show a countdown when selecting arm away? I'n the gif on the documentation it shows the 'pending' icon blinking but thats not happening for me?
mild veldt
@limber fjord do you have a delay set?
That gif is so outdated...all the doc images are...
crimson fable
@muted inlet okay but what does that mean? does it wait for low temp and then heat to high temp?
boreal pike
at the start when you try and edit the UI it says lovelace will take care of it, but went ahead anyway, but how do i get it so lovelace will take care of new UI automatly again?
limber fjord
@mild veldt yeah when I set the alarm it gives you 30 secs to leave before any motion actually triggers the siren... the gif on the page shows it with a keypad as well... it’s worth mentioning that it is actually all functioning correctly, however when disarming the alarm it doesn’t even require me to give a pin (which I’m okay with) and the preciously mentioned issue - that when arming it does not show anything so it is unclear if the command actually when thru
muted inlet
@crimson fable it means both heating and cooling could potentially be active. The low temp is the setpoint for heating, and the high temp is the setpoint for cooling
If it drops below the low temp, heating turns on
If it goes above the high temp, cooling turns on

Is there a roadmap to getting some of the more popular custom cards into home assistant core?
is there a community discussion thread around that I could review?
wheat current
The roadmap is: {developer name} want to take the time to do it.
Ofc. Most of the custom variants needs/should be stripped down before added
wheat current
IMO the cards in core now is a nice base, and adding custom cards is super simple
pallid needle
Yeah
but even things like @mild veldt roku remote is far better than anything in core right now
for roku
or floorplan
though I guess floorplan is so large it needs it's own development cycle
wheat current
I don't see integration/device spesific cards being in core
pallid needle
why is that?
I feel like half the utility of the integration with roku comes from that card
pallid needle
That's fair
tawny rapids
(for the easy example at least)
pallid needle
what about things like floorplan
tawny rapids
some of them might be common enough that it might merit inclusion
but someone would have to put in the effort
pallid needle
well that's why I was wondering about a roadmap, if there was a process for getting included
tawny rapids
and with HACS (or however it is spelled) these days, i don't think anyone is willing to do the extra work
wheat current
AFIAK the spelling never changed @tawny rapids 😅

i've never paid attention to it 😛
i don't know how its spelled in the first place 😛
wheat current

like right now I have no way other than manual to see if there are updates
wheat current
caveman
modern breach
got me thinking, anyone has a good example of a card that only shows when needed, and show me if there is an update to hass, an add-on, HACS or something installed using HACS?
pallid needle
I will be setting up HACS I think
split granite
modern breach
mm, that's the conditional part. I think I've done one before so that I can manage. Not sure how to do the rest. For hass itself there is binary_sensor.updater. but for the rest I don't see anything?
split granite
The rest of what?
modern breach
updates to add-ons and updates to things installed through HACS
modern breach
not as far as I can tell
wheat current
HACS does, add-ons do not have that
tawny rapids
addons definitely wouldn't. that's all in the supervisor
split granite
Personally I use a push notification for HACS updates, I'm not in the UI enough to notice a message there
modern breach
im getting there too, sooner or later. But Im not there yet.

I don't bother, I do updates when I have time
split granite
I like to know when there's an update, so I can ignore it

@atomic glacier not quite what im looking for but close. that will show/hide a card depending on an entities state. Im looking for a card that will hide the contents of the card BUT show the header still with a shw/hide toggle
A workaround for what im looking for would be to specify an entity_id for the header toggle. can that be done?

you could create a group that you show on the first row, then the individual folded below it. the group name would then be your header
not exactly what yo want, but doable

Hi there, is there a way to show a button card where the icon is based on a state of a sensor and the tap_action is toggling a switch?

@paper oxide https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/entity-button/ should do both of those
https://github.com/custom-cards/button-card if you want to get fancy
paper oxide
@winter wasp Thanks for your reply. But that gives me the option of one icon
I have a sensor for a garage door
It have to show different icons when it's open or closed.
that's not possible is it?
with both cards
Oh wait, it is with the button-card
the icon supports templates
winter wasp
if you want to change the actual icon (not color) then you'll need to use the latter
or perhaps use the icon template on the template sensor itself
paper oxide
@winter wasp I've managed to fix this. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction 🙂

@median jolt yes, that is how I use fold-entity-row. Examples and pics in my repo. Also use plenty of popup-cards to save space and clutter. Actually, all of my stuff is pretty much hidden in popups.

I am styling my picture elements card. I've added a state-badge element and am trying to hide the title. In the doc it says "title: null" should do it. But that isn't changing anything for me though
polar kelp
Probably just in time for you to have replaced all your popups with browser_mod, right @atomic glacier ?
vapid field
Can I scale my picture elements card, when the view it is on is in panel-mode?
polar kelp
You can "scale" it in powers of 1/2 by using a horizontal stack...
atomic glacier
Actually, I have 16 or so that are still old school popups, mostly cameras, but still love the speed from them. Camera feeds are slow enough already
polar kelp
Hm... that makes me think that perhaps I should have tested what happens if you have both browser_mod and popup-card installed...
atomic glacier
I only have 2 that are identical...browser_mod loses the race, but not too much
both are mobile
vapid field
@polar kelp that doesn't do anything if I am in panel-mode.
polar kelp
You'd need to add empty cards of some kind to the side. But it's a bad idea anyway.
A better bet is probably either scaling it with css using card-mod or more directly using layout-card.
The new functionality in browser_mod 16 works the same way popup-card does, so it should be just as fast.
Basically, it's a drop-in replacement.
atomic glacier
Well... you know I'm gonna at least see for myself 😜
I'll give them a race a little later 🛵
I've been wanting to finalize the migration for awhile now, got stuck getting repo to pass build last week, but will have free time later this evening

@polar kelp can't really get it to work. Changing the size of the image also doesn't matter at all. I want the picture elements card to display at the max height, without having to scroll. Isn't there anyway to do that?
polar kelp
Scaling things to height is notoriously hard to do on the web, for some reason...
vapid field
if it would just factor in the size of the image....
maybe it works if I add white space to the left and right of the png file
alright that worked better than expected! nice
vapid field
that's right, but I mainly use the floorplan on the wall mounted tablet.
atomic glacier
Okay, so the backend won't have to send popups anymore <scratches head> and that means I'll have to set them back up in lovelace file with !includes this time .... so before I begin migrating back...do you think I can get a couple months before you change your mind again? 🤔 🤣 😜 😂 
@polar kelp
vapid field
@polar kelp What about using your card modder plugin and changing the size?
polar kelp
@atomic glacier I make no guarantees.
@vapid field As I said above, I think that could work.
card-mod, rather than card-modder, though.
But seriously, Dino. With the amount of irritation this has caused, I don't see myself removing it again anytime soon without a really good reason.

tawny rapids
that's beyond my exp ¯_(ツ)_/¯
vapid field
Oh, I can use a state-icon and change the tap_action....
vapid field
Can I remove the floating point of a template temperature sensor?
The better question is: How do I round? As I see in this demo https://demo.home-assistant.io/#/lovelace/0
they made a template sensor that contains the rounded value
tawny rapids
|round(<num_of_digits>)
the template from my example above:
value_template: >-
{% set sensors = [
states('sensor.living_room_temperature')|float,
states('sensor.office_temperature')|float,
states('sensor.thermostat_temperature')|float
]
%}
{% set ns = namespace(avg_tmp = 0.0) %}
{% for sensor in sensors %}
{% set ns.avg_tmp = ns.avg_tmp + sensor %}
{% endfor %}
{{(ns.avg_tmp / (sensors|length))|round(1)}}```a lot more complex than what you're doing, but has all of the bits
vapid field
oh jesus, this is hard to read in discord
tawny rapids
lol probably too wide
vapid field
so, round(0) is what I am looking for?
vapid field
Can you explain what you did there? Don't really get it, but I am interested
tawny rapids
defining a list of sensor states, looping through that list and adding them together and then dividing that sum by the number of items in the list to get the average
i have 3 copies of this with 3 different lists

Is there a way that I can make the colors match the RGB values in this history graph, or do I have to write some code? https://i.imgur.com/zo3kW95.png

restarted my HA and for some reason cannot add my WLED light back .... any help would be appreciated....
It says that it's already configured under integrations but having trouble adding it in UI
sullen stream
@timid burrow So when adding it... just add as a light.... or a manual card.... or?
added as light... it worked !!!
timid burrow
I have my lights on an entities card.. depends on how you want to see them but make sure you see it in dev told>states first
Ok good news
timid burrow
I have no idea... your questions to me have been very specific rather than any problem
Oh
Well i don't understand why it got into a tizz in the first place
Like I said it's nothing to do with ssl
sullen stream
I think it is related to my port forwarding... but I'm a noob.
timid burrow
I doubt that
sullen stream
ok, it's confusing to me for sure.
timid burrow
PF will just screw up external access
sullen stream
I'm quite careful (maybe too careful) to only change one thing at a time....
so returning to our earlier discussion how long does that take to implement?
sullen stream
Caddy....
timid burrow
Caddy is straightforward if you follow the instructions systematically
sullen stream
ok, I have your instructions so I'll meticulously go through them. At that point I should have the SSL working and only one port instead of my current 3 right?
timid burrow
Yes
sullen stream
ok, thanks again.....I keep stepping on HA land mines and breaking things. cheers.
timid burrow
Lol... good way to learn for a while till you get tired of it
sullen stream
ok, when you get tired of it.. then what?
timid burrow
Well by then you have a pretty good idea of how it all works and won't have too many problems
You won't be a noob forever
sullen stream
gotcha... have a good one... need to rest over here. You've been quite helpful.

Thinkin' I don't like what I'm thinkin' about what this may mean...🤔
...but...I could be totally clueless as usual 🤐

Note: Just tested a dozen or so using v15 when I started noticing the errors...🤷🏻♂️ @polar kelp aside from the errors, it was equally as fast IMO 😉

You're not mixing card-modder and card-mod styles?
Or maybe have a card-modder card with a stray colon in the styles or so?
atomic glacier
Unfortunately, I'm only using card-mod on one card🙄, so not mixing, but I was falling asleep at the keyboard last night 🤔so I'll definitely check for the latter. Thanks

Is there a way to set the action to more-info and show more-info of a different entity ?

Okay...since I only use one lovelace view and multiple users within the view, I checked all users and I only get errors with my mobile login, which helps. Yamllint validates as well. I am assuming that the resources:, anchors:, popup_cards:, etc... (<--basically everything before the actual view) loads for every user? therefore error would have to be within my user login set via state-switch within the actual view itself? thinking this is the best place to start??? @polar kelp just trying to eliminate places to look...haven't made any drastic changes lately, but not promising my late night sessions are very valid 🧐 Thanks!
EDIT: I know the anchors: only load where they are called specifically, so checked those just for my login
polar kelp
I believe the problem is that a style setting of a card-modder card is interpreted by the yaml parser as something other than a string, could be something like color: accidental: colon or something that needs quotes. The problematic style won’t work.
atomic glacier
Should be only under my user section, correct?
polar kelp
Could also be someting with a magic value, like asd: (empty value) or fgh: on
It’s a card that’s currently seen, I think, but I’m not 100% sure of that.
atomic glacier
Okay, I'll just yank out my user, validate & rebuild section at a time till I find it. Thank you!

Hey i have my ui in yaml mode and i have created a new view for my 3D printer but when i click on the button for that view it opens a different view what can be the issue here ?
My ui yaml: https://pastebin.com/Ccgagrk0
split granite
Which is the relevant bit for the question?
It looks like you truncated it right at the 3D Printer view 🤔
arctic thistle
So the last view is the new one and when trying to open that one shows the cards of living
Yeah still need to add the cards to it
Bit when putting the 3d printing view above living it works fine
split granite
Wait?
You have an empty view
And you're surprised that it's not working?
I'd start by adding some cards
You've said here's the cards for this view and then ended the file
arctic thistle
I did still the same res
