Is ti possible to add a country to the new corona virus integration? I live in a country that doesn’t shows up in the list (Costa Rica). And I would like to create an automation when the first case arrives

if you use the UI to configure instead of yaml, HACS will tell you (and offer to add it there) if it's missing

This is probably a stupidly dumb question, but are some of the cards built into integrations or are people doing that manually?

The coronavirus one is actually a good example: https://www.home-assistant.io/blog/2020/03/02/release-106-3/

Seeing a graph of activity when you press tap on a binary sensor (motion) in love lace is ok, but I'd prefer to just see the list of times and durations that were used to generate the graph. Is it possible to see a list?

smoky depot Mar 4, 2020, 8:03 AM

#

@noble galleon not sure what you want vs what you have now but you can change the unit of measurement for entities Configuration > Customizations which in turn changes that graph

noble galleon Mar 4, 2020, 8:04 AM

I just want a list of events rather than a graph.

smoky depot Mar 4, 2020, 8:04 AM

there's always the logbook

noble galleon Mar 4, 2020, 8:05 AM

#

That I mean is, having a graph for binary sensors isn't useful when the events are very short

#

I have a number of motion sensors. If rather just have the data used for the graph in text form

It's much more inconvenient to go to the logbook and load that up each time I want to have a quick look

don't believve that is possible

@polar kelp trying out the grid layout and it worked well for my sensor cards, but now i'm trying to replace my nested horizontal-stack/vertical-stack code with a grid layout card and some cards are not respecting the 100% height.. any idea what this could be ? I'm seeing this issue with the bignumbers card

polar kelp Mar 4, 2020, 1:29 PM

#

Hm... that’s interesting.

#

I think it’s because card mod relies on almost everyone setting this._config at the start of the setConfig function, but bitnumbers does that at the end...

#

You may have to add mod-card to that to make it work.

worn parrot Mar 4, 2020, 1:41 PM

#

yeah some cards do weird things with the config variable on setConfig(config) and it broke a few cards on the new update. mine, for example, set some additional properties directly on config but it looks like it's now immutable/readonly and failed because of that. changed the code and it's fixed. just need the card author to update any cards that aren't working.

@craggy schooner because that's not how you define a template. check the docs

craggy schooner Mar 4, 2020, 4:12 PM

looked in the docs.. that didn't work.. so I looked at thomas component that was merged into the main component and the [[]] metohid is what he describes.. and also what is listed in sample config that I'm referencing

but ok

{{ sensor.time.state }} removes all content from the markdown block so nothing displays

Is there any way to align a stack to the bottom of the container?

worn parrot Mar 4, 2020, 6:55 PM

#

@craggy schooner FYI https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/configuration/templating/

Avoid using states.sensor.temperature.state, instead use states('sensor.temperature'). It is strongly advised to use the states(), is_state(), state_attr() and is_state_attr() as much as possible, to avoid errors and error message when the entity isn’t ready yet (e.g., during Home Assistant startup).

e.g.

cards:
  - type: markdown
    content: "{{ states('light.bedroom_lamp') }}"

#

Is there any way to align a stack to the bottom of the container?
Not natively but you might be able to use a panel and style a card to display it at the bottom using card-mod (https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-card-mod).
You can't style stacks "the easy way" but there's a workaround to be able to. Or you could possibly set its absolute position (ha-card { position: absolute; bottom: 0; }) if that's what you want.

My man

atomic glacier Mar 4, 2020, 10:31 PM

#

I have used picture-glance for that in the past to add multiple lights, switches, etc... @tawny lynx

#

But would also need browser-mod for the more info popup

tawny lynx Mar 4, 2020, 10:34 PM

#

@atomic glacier ok cool, I have browser mod but can't figure out the service data to show the picture-glance

atomic glacier Mar 4, 2020, 10:38 PM

#

The easiest way I know is to use an input_boolean as the entity in the card and call the browser-mod script from that, but...I've been told on occasion, that I don't think normally 🤣

#

Just works for me, so I do it LOL

#

Several examples in my repo, and if you need help feel free to tag me.

tawny lynx Mar 4, 2020, 11:01 PM

#

@atomic glacier I've never used an input Boolean like that, I might just have to try it! Would need to look over your examples

atomic glacier Mar 4, 2020, 11:07 PM

#

Meh, I forgot I changed the call-service popups to sun.sun for the entity, like

                - type: entity-button
                  entity: sun.sun
                  name: Sleep
                  icon: mdi:sleep
                  tap_action:
                    action: call-service
                    service: script.good_night

@tawny lynx would be easier

#

same principle though

craggy schooner Mar 4, 2020, 11:15 PM

If i have a list of lights in a entities card, what is the popup view that I can open with the color wheel known as? can this be customized? I'd love a color temperature slider here as well

atomic glacier Mar 4, 2020, 11:17 PM

#

I think you are referring to the more-info of an entity. If you use custom cards, there are quite a few cool cards for lights...

craggy schooner Mar 4, 2020, 11:18 PM

#

yeah probably.. couldn't really find it in the documentation

#

So custom card is the way to go i guess

atomic glacier Mar 4, 2020, 11:19 PM

#

for me there is no other option...but...I like breaking things too

craggy schooner Mar 4, 2020, 11:19 PM

Is there a common directory of custom cards? or is the method of finding them shooting off hopeful searches on google and the forums? 🙂

Hi when i click on configure-ui in lovelace

i have an empty screen (not able to see other cards/edit)

stoic ember Mar 5, 2020, 1:30 AM

#

I'm having trouble setting an icon for entities in Lovelace. I'm guessing I'm picking icons that aren't yet included in HA. Is there a list that shows all the MDI icons available in HA? I'd like to use something like mdi:track-light

#

@gusty wing can you click the + to add an empty/new card and then see if any of the others show up?

gusty wing Mar 5, 2020, 1:33 AM

#

@stoic ember nope, it seems that its only on 1 card

#

ive deleted by db and restarted now its all good

stoic ember Mar 5, 2020, 1:35 AM

#

@gusty wing you deleted the entire db or just that card?

#

@gusty wing what do you lose when deleting home-assistant_v2.db

odd light Mar 5, 2020, 2:35 AM

#

all of your state history

#

but you have to nuke it often after an update or things act funny.

stoic ember Mar 5, 2020, 2:39 AM

#

Thanks for the idea @gusty wing and explanation @odd light - I was just having an issue with some sensors after renaming them and changing their icons. They kept saying "unavailable" but after nuking the home-assistant_v2.db file they are working again. I had no idea that was a viable option.

odd light Mar 5, 2020, 2:39 AM

#

yep

#

I usually don't do it unless I notice issues, but it's fixed many an issue.

#

why? no idea.

#

maybe if you use a different db it's not a thing I dunno, I'm still on the built in stuff.

Is there a way to configure a view in panel mode but not hide the other panels? Or if that's not possible can the number of columns in a view be configured?

mild veldt Mar 5, 2020, 3:24 AM

#

@stoic ember I don't understand the question. "not hide the other panels?"

stoic ember Mar 5, 2020, 3:25 AM

#

I like the look of a view after enabling "panel mode" on it, but as it states in the edit screen, this renders the first card at full width; other cards in this view will not be rendered.

mild veldt Mar 5, 2020, 3:26 AM

So by "not hide the other panels?" you meant other cards?

stoic ember Mar 5, 2020, 3:30 AM

Yeah, I guess so, I'm just struggling to get horizontal cards working as there is no visual editor and I can't seem to get the entity config right when trying.

mild veldt Mar 5, 2020, 4:53 AM

@gusty wing a template sensor is typically the standard approach for now

gusty wing Mar 5, 2020, 4:53 AM

#

i see creating a sensor for that 1 attribute

mild veldt Mar 5, 2020, 5:24 AM

#

depends on what you want to do with it

#

there are other options

#

like the markdown card

#

and plenty of custom cards that offer ways of displaying attributes

secondaryinfo-entity-row is a good one as well

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

mild veldt Mar 5, 2020, 3:46 PM

#

@clear geode templates are not allowed in the conditional card

#

conditional card is only based on the state of the entity, so you need an entity that holds the temperature value as its state. I suggest making a template sensor

clear geode Mar 5, 2020, 3:57 PM

#

yes thanks, i came to that conclusion

#

@mild veldt thanks I guess if there isn't docs saying you can use templates, assume you can't use them

mild veldt Mar 5, 2020, 4:26 PM

#

@clear geode markdown card being the exception

#

there are custom solutions, however, that support templates

#

my card https://github.com/iantrich/config-template-card pretty much allows templates anywhere. Just be careful, it can impact your performance if not done properly

polar kelp Mar 5, 2020, 5:47 PM

Markdown card docs say you can. That’s no exception. It’s the opposite.

Hey everone, I have a stacked card that contains multiple conditional media-player cards.. What would be your best idea to hide the stacked card alltogether if none of it's items are displayed? As far as I can tell there is no OR in conditional cards, right? It looks odd if no item is displayed but the title of the card is shown :D

polar kelp Mar 6, 2020, 8:55 PM

#

Stock solution: Make a template sensor counting the number of active media players, put everything in a conditional card to hide it if there's none.

#

One other solution: state-switch custom card has OR.

@polar kelp Thanks for your suggestions :) I'd prefer the first one since I don't want too many custom components installed.. In theory that means that I have to create a template sensor with a giant if (media 1 playing or media 1 paused or media 2 playing, etc.) inside the "value_template", right?

Edit: Easier than I thought :D Or is there something wrong with this attempt?

value_template: '{{ states.media_player|selectattr("state", "eq", "playing")|list|length + states.media_player|selectattr("state", "eq", "paused")|list|length }}'

Is this the place for questions regarding custom Lovelace stuff? Please redirect me otherwise.

I use https://github.com/maykar/compact-custom-header which has been depreciated and replaced by https://github.com/maykar/custom-header. One difference is that Swipe navigation is no longer included as it was with CCH and I should use https://github.com/maykar/lovelace-swipe-navigation instead.

But, when I tried that a while ago, Swipe Navigation didn't honor the hidden tabs per user setting. Althought only some tabs were shown in the header, swiping browsed trough ALL tabs.
Basically the wifey suddenly didn't only swipe through her ordinary tabs, alarm, lights, basic stuff. She also got access to all my test-tabs, something shethought was very confusing and didn't appreciate.

Is that the expected result or was it a result of bad config?

#

Top right corner, there's three dots

Select that, then Configure UI

#

Zero YAML editing required

icy wraith Mar 7, 2020, 3:50 PM

#

well I'd like to edit the yaml in places

#

I can see the editor there

#

but where does that files sit?

split granite Mar 7, 2020, 3:51 PM

#

If you're using the UI there's no YAML

#

You can use the raw editor to edit what looks like YAML though

#

Just click the three dots again

icy wraith Mar 7, 2020, 3:51 PM

#

sorry I mean in the raw editor yeah

#

does that not actually write to a file?

split granite Mar 7, 2020, 3:52 PM

It does, but JSON

icy wraith Mar 7, 2020, 3:52 PM

#

if I did want to read the lovelace config from an actual file, how/where would I !include it in the config.yaml

split granite Mar 7, 2020, 3:52 PM

You wouldn't do that anyway

See the Lovelace docs for YAML mode if you really want to do it that way

Nope

They say to put two lines in your config 😉

Restart Home Assistant for the mode to be changed. Create a new file <config>/ui-lovelace.yaml and add your Lovelace configuration

#

You do not !include that however

icy wraith Mar 7, 2020, 3:55 PM

ohhh when you enable

lovelace:

does it just look for the ui-lovelace.yaml in your config dir?

Yup

#

the map...

#

I've created a map card, which I added my zones and trackers to

#

how can I get that in the actual map integrationg

split granite Mar 7, 2020, 3:59 PM

#

You can't, they're different

#

the map integration and the map card are two different things

icy wraith Mar 7, 2020, 3:59 PM

#

I know, I'm wondering how to configure the integration map

#

as at the moment all it shows is my zones

split granite Mar 7, 2020, 4:00 PM

#

https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/map

#

All available config options are listed there

icy wraith Mar 7, 2020, 4:00 PM

#

none...

split granite Mar 7, 2020, 4:00 PM

#

Correct 😉

icy wraith Mar 7, 2020, 4:00 PM

#

so how have other people achieved it, as I've seen screenshots of it

split granite Mar 7, 2020, 4:01 PM

#

You can make zones passive

#

https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/zone#passive

icy wraith Mar 7, 2020, 4:01 PM

#

but what about the trackers?

split granite Mar 7, 2020, 4:01 PM

#

To only use the zone for automation and hide it from the frontend and not use the zone for device tracker name

#

Events would still work, but not states

#

Only cards are configurable

wheat current Mar 7, 2020, 4:02 PM

icy wraith Mar 7, 2020, 4:04 PM

#

the images link is what I@m aiming for

#

so remove the map config and use the view instead I think

#

ok, I need to create an additional map using that card to replace the default map integration. does that sound right?

split granite Mar 7, 2020, 4:08 PM

#

Well, it won't replace it, but yes

icy wraith Mar 7, 2020, 4:09 PM

#

I have it manually enabled from map: instead of default_config in the config.yaml now so if I removed that it wouldn't show the default I think?

#

ummmm, so how do I create a secondary view?

split granite Mar 7, 2020, 4:18 PM

#

You can't, currently anyway

#

I think 0.107 may bring that

wheat current Mar 7, 2020, 4:18 PM

it will

icy wraith Mar 7, 2020, 4:19 PM

#

:/ how did they achieve this then?
https://community.home-assistant.io/t/hide-person-on-map-or-the-map-intergration/135449/11

wheat current Mar 7, 2020, 4:19 PM

#

In the sidebar, is the integration

#

in the tab, is a view with panel: true

icy wraith Mar 7, 2020, 4:21 PM

#

the screenshot isn't very helpful but it looks like they've got their zones and trackers in the map?

wheat current Mar 7, 2020, 4:22 PM

#

That's how the integration works

icy wraith Mar 7, 2020, 4:22 PM

#

something is wrong in mine then, as only the zones are showing, but in my map card they are showing

wheat current Mar 7, 2020, 4:23 PM

#

devices that are home will not show on the map integration

as stated in the docs

hey are you guys using a tablet to display lovelace custom cards?
i tried fully browser but it had issues loading custom cards

atomic glacier Mar 7, 2020, 5:18 PM

#

FKB loads fine for me on 3 tablets and mobile

#

Have heard there is(was) some issue on Fire tabs, but also a workaround

#

Would browser-mod function properly with popups, etc..if I use the same deviceID for 2 or 3 devices? Mainly wanting to use the fake browser ID function of FKB to cut out some code if this would work and not inhibit any functions...🤷🏻‍♂️ @polar kelp

Can I set the Theme of a Card via Templating?

#

Cool...updating and changing a panel to FKB, so I thought I'd ask. I'll let you know if I find any issues...THANKS!

#

@flint canopy don't see why not. I just use them in automations and buttons using browser-mod

icy wraith Mar 7, 2020, 6:03 PM

#

heya, I'm back again, is there a simple way to get text input?

I've got assistant-relay working, but now I want to get it so I can send text from the ui

kind shellBOT Mar 7, 2020, 6:03 PM

#

https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/input_text/

icy wraith Mar 7, 2020, 6:05 PM

#

yeh I don't know how to use that in another entity

atomic glacier Mar 7, 2020, 6:05 PM

#

an entities card

split granite Mar 7, 2020, 6:05 PM

#

Then link an automation to it

atomic glacier Mar 7, 2020, 6:07 PM

#

...or if you want to use presets, you can use an input_select for commands. I use that as well. Pretty slick IMO

icy wraith Mar 7, 2020, 6:07 PM

#

hmmm

#

it's for some cheap chinese lights I've got that I can't be bothered to solder up for ESPHome so I'm just talking to them through google

atomic glacier Mar 7, 2020, 6:09 PM

#

I also just added it to the HA Android app using actionable notifications for garage door and some lights

icy wraith Mar 7, 2020, 6:09 PM

#

atm I have:

type: entities
entities:
  - action_name: Broadcast
    name: Mirror light on
    service: rest_command.assistant_relay
    service_data:
      command: "set mirror lights to 100%"
    type: call-service
  - action_name: Broadcast
    name: Mirror light off
    service: rest_command.assistant_relay
    service_data:
      command: "turn off the mirror light"
    type: call-service

#

I'm happy with that, as I have no way of knowing what state it's in at the moment

#

so this is literally just for broadcasting, so I just want a free-text field

atomic glacier Mar 7, 2020, 6:10 PM

#

then I'd use input_select option then. You can add as many commands to one as needed, then display on a lovelace card

#

flash with Tasmota and then integrate so you can monitor states, but that's another channel 😜

icy wraith Mar 7, 2020, 6:12 PM

#

tasmota rather than esphome?

atomic glacier Mar 7, 2020, 6:12 PM

#

preference for me ATM, but whichever you are comfortable with

icy wraith Mar 7, 2020, 6:13 PM

#

it's on my list

#

quick fix for now

#

so, I'll use input_select for the regular commands

atomic glacier Mar 7, 2020, 6:14 PM

#

yeah, I just add more as needed

icy wraith Mar 7, 2020, 6:14 PM

#

but still not sure how'd use the value of input_text in the service_data: command

atomic glacier Mar 7, 2020, 6:17 PM

#

but usually just use it via mobile app as I stated above. When something happens(trigger) my notification gives an option to execute an action. Works perfect...
last question would be #templates-archived and an #automations-archived to fire it off (<--pretty sure)

split granite Mar 7, 2020, 6:19 PM

#

Yup

#

An automation triggered by any state change on the input select

icy wraith Mar 7, 2020, 6:21 PM

#

ah ok that makes sense

#

I'll have a tinker

#

may I ask another question?

split granite Mar 7, 2020, 6:22 PM

#

Just ask questions - whoever is around that can help will (probably)

icy wraith Mar 7, 2020, 6:23 PM

#

hahahah

#

so I've associated an nmap tracker to a person entity

#

for myself and my partner I have the persons as badges

#

i'm wondering if I can have hide_if_away on the person badge, rather than the tracker

split granite Mar 7, 2020, 6:25 PM

#

No, and that's going away with 0.107

icy wraith Mar 7, 2020, 6:25 PM

#

what? hide_if_away

split granite Mar 7, 2020, 6:25 PM

#

Yup

icy wraith Mar 7, 2020, 6:25 PM

#

in favour of conditional?

split granite Mar 7, 2020, 6:25 PM

#

there's at least two ways of doing what you want with Lovelace itself

#

In favour of not having it

#

hide_if_away is a hangover from the old UI, that thankfully is now dead

icy wraith Mar 7, 2020, 6:26 PM

#

haha that's the last time I properly played with HAss

#

thank you for the assistance

#

I'm going to get that working

#

then try the input_text

split granite Mar 7, 2020, 6:30 PM

#

Good luck

atomic glacier Mar 7, 2020, 6:42 PM

#

@flint canopy same theory as this: https://imgur.com/a/ZF8aw43 , but use the templating in the styles Pretty sure that will get what you needed...

lilac fern Mar 7, 2020, 7:52 PM

Is there any chance the current lovelace-custom-card documentation might be wrong or is it HACS, or version-missmatch(es)? in short: I got a reminder that HACS shows incorrect 2 lines for the installation of https://github.com/custom-cards/flex-table-card ... minimal difference between the https://github.com/custom-cards/flex-table-card/README.md and the HACS guideline. type: compontent instead of type: js as in the project README... I personally have type: js active and type: component does not work, the lovelace custom-card docs tell the opposite (use type: component) https://developers.home-assistant.io/docs/lovelace_custom_card/#advanced-example .... so anyone can help what's really correct and since which version or has this another reason?

#

(HA vers.: 0.106.5 for me) ... HACS seems to also be not consistent across various custom-cards and even more confusing is the fact that I get type: js for flex-table-card whilst the person making me aware of this issue here: https://github.com/custom-cards/flex-table-card/issues/22 gets type: component proposed 😉

Hey, I've been struggling to get home assistant to work again since the 0.106 update about a week ago. My issue is that the frontend does not start (and neither does ssh). I can however get into save mode when I create an invalid config via samba. I can also read the logs, which show: https://community.home-assistant.io/t/typeerror-expected-string-or-bytes-like-object/177160. Any suggestions for how I can debug this further?

wheat current Mar 9, 2020, 5:39 AM

#

'component' is not a valid type @vapid field
It has to be module, js, css, html.
As far as I can see, only module and css is selectable from version 107

vapid field Mar 9, 2020, 6:27 AM

#

whoops, the online docs say: type: module... just tried it out, for me it also doesn't work, so the custom-card cannot be loaded. (mixed up 'component' and 'module', sry :D) ... so is the not working type: module currently expected? or is there need for a HA-restart maybe?
Apart from this, is it intended that HACS is not consistent here, the bottom section for the module is HACS generated, right? or can I somehow enforce module or js being documented there?

wheat current Mar 9, 2020, 7:10 AM

#

HACS is consistent, it will show module for all cards now in preparation for 107, where that is the only viable option.

vapid field Mar 9, 2020, 7:16 AM

#

nice, that's what I hoped for, so if there's anything I can do at least for flex-table-card (because for my card it still writes 'js') , let me know... just yesterday updated info.md + hacs.json to improve the catalogue feeling,.

If you see 'js' on your installation, upgrade HACS

wheat current Mar 9, 2020, 8:16 AM

#

The card probably needs a change, upgrading HA/HACS will not solve it.

#

Every other card I have seen is working with module, so have a look at the difference between those and yours

#

It it does not change, it will probably not work when your users upgrade to 107

vapid field Mar 9, 2020, 8:18 AM

#

oh ok, then I'll have to find out what makes a module a module, mmmh shouldn't be that hard

#

ok 1st stop docs, but there are 2 listings which show how to include a custom card and guess what: one says 'js', the other module 😄 directly filing a one-word-PR

vapid field Mar 9, 2020, 8:44 AM

#

well that was easy, obviously 'module' leads to a more strict js-parsing, so 2 violations are 2 too much.... but nice and @wheat current thx for the hints

slender wraith Mar 9, 2020, 9:57 AM

is there a service I can call to force UI update from a Button tap action ? The button I'm pressing should turn button entity off and the button should disappear. Like a warning button - and when pressed it should go away

polar kelp Mar 9, 2020, 10:01 AM

#

You could achieve that with a conditional card.

Hey guys, I have a vertical stack card that worked perfectly untill a recent update, it uses type: 'custom:card-templater' for each card.
It contains 3 cards, as long as 1 of the 3 cards is not a card-templater the vertical stack works the way I want it to. But as soon as I change the type of the last card to card-templater and save the config, my whole homescreen turns empty and I need te edit the RAW YAML and change 1 of the 3 cards to a different type for all cards to appear again.

hello, I'm trying to auto backup hassio snapshots to my nas via smb. Is there no easy way for this?

@full fern I can always and without any limitations recommend borgbackup (with borgmatic)

please help me
I had install home assistant from python package without hassio
My system on armbian
And try to configure lovelace but i can't find directory with frontend
I don't have any dir /local or www
where is front end located?

mild veldt Mar 10, 2020, 2:00 PM

#

@restive zinc you configure the UI via the UI by default

#

You have to create a www folder in you main config folder if you want to add additional resyfor the frontend, but it not required by default

restive zinc Mar 10, 2020, 2:47 PM

#

@mild veldt hi, maybe I something do incorrect
I have main config directory is /home/daniil/.homeassistant
and I created dir /home/daniil/.homeassistant/www/local and put the image
in ui-lovelace.yaml added path:
cards:
- type: picture-elements
image: /local/small_remote_controll_samsung.jpeg
and restart hass-demon service
but I have the same error:
small_remote_controll_samsung.jpeg:1 GET https://server.com/local/small_remote_controll_samsung.jpeg 404 (Not Found)

mild veldt Mar 10, 2020, 3:05 PM

#

@restive zinc local === www
so if you put the image at www/local the image path in the frontend would be image: /local/local/small_remote_controll_samsung.jpeg

#

i can only add a picture, but i can't find an option for updating it

#

Could you explain a little more? What card are you adding the image to? Why do you need to set the update interval? What else is shown on the card?

signal apex Mar 10, 2020, 4:20 PM

#

i just need a box, that shows a static image and updates it every second. Its from my esp32cam, but i noticed that the livestream is rather unstable and after a few minutes it stops working, but the still-image-url is very solid and works everytime

#

i added the url as "Picture" and it shows the image, but it doesn't know when to update the picture

manic vortex Mar 10, 2020, 4:22 PM

#

I doubt there's functionality for that as this seems like a really rare use-case

I think your best bet will probably be to look at any custom cards that may be able to do it, or build your own 🙂

Hi all, i'm currently working on my lovelace with some scripts. I'd like to change the button on an entity row.

Post the following to the wrong location:

maybe a stupid question, but I have to ask. I am finally biting the bullet and transitioning to Lovelace. I really dislike the auto-configuration (too many clicks to configure something, but I see the value for a lot of people), so I went the manual configuration route and created my own iu-lovelace.yaml file. The one big "limitation" I see, and maybe is my lack of knowledge of lovelace; I don't see a way for new entities to automatically populate somewhere (like the old, soon to be deprecated States UI). Is there something that can be done in Lovelace, when one is configuring it manually that will take care of this limitation? I have googled and came around custom cards (monster-card for example), but not sure what will be the best way to go about it.

Some people might ask why if I can see the list of entities directly from the configuration screen; this is 100% correct, but unfortunately, you do not have actual control of those entities from that screen (at least not when you are manually configuring your Lovelace front end).

I am open to suggestion, maybe I am looking at this the wrong way and there are better options that I am not aware of.

Some of the replies pointed me to:
L1 - lovelace auto-configuration
L2 - "take control" - certain level of flexibility while still retaining the UI as the main area to do configs
L3 - yaml mode (user has full control)

mortal cape Mar 11, 2020, 5:27 PM

#

@arctic scarab the 0.107.0 release will let you have multiple dashboards, so one can be using automatic mode, another manual mode...

#

the beta being released today

arctic scarab Mar 11, 2020, 5:28 PM

#

interesting; that will certainly give me all the options under one umbrella

mortal cape Mar 11, 2020, 5:28 PM

#

and new entities automatically show up in the "unused entities" page also

arctic scarab Mar 11, 2020, 5:28 PM

#

I am not a programmer by any means, but I went to the yaml mode due to the fact that I can have better control of what I want to do; and I am trully not wired in a way that making such configurations in a graphical interface makes sense to me

#

I rather write the code (although it might seemed harder)

#

not realy coding, scripting if anything

#

So a follow question, as I already went the yaml mode; in order to go back to the stock way of doing things (Lovelace auto-configured, or configured via graphical interface), do I just delete the ui-lovelace.yaml from my config folder, or is there some other trick I also need to know.

mortal cape Mar 11, 2020, 5:32 PM

#

I like all the previews in the UI mode...but you can't achieve @atomic glacier levels of customization without yaml mode. I'm just not into the UI that much and more about having things do what they should without much interaction.

#

@arctic scarab yeah remove mode: yaml from configuration and I don't think you even need to remove the ui-lovelace.yaml file, but I may be wrong

#

  mode: yaml```

#

I mean

arctic scarab Mar 11, 2020, 5:38 PM

#

I have seen some of the UIs from people here, and they are un-freaking-believable.... I am not there yet; but I need a little more control to make sure that things make sense for me, my wife and my kids; otherwise, I will have 3 people screaming at me because something doesn't work the way they want it to work .....

How do you guys manage to switch between lovelace tabs?
They are rather small and hard to exactly tap on

Especially when the connection is lost and the whole page becomes unresponsive and reverts to the previous state after reconnecting

atomic glacier Mar 11, 2020, 6:43 PM

#

@arctic scarab some examples here: https://github.com/Dino-Tech/Home-Assistant-Main
If you are cool with the keyboard, building a basic lovelace UI is baby steps...but very addictive

#

You are only limited by your imagination.

#

@crimson fable swipe-card or buttons on mobile IMO is the best way

arctic scarab Mar 11, 2020, 6:48 PM

hi together

#

i'm struggling with a timestamp in lovelace.
I've a sensor with a timestamp (device_class: timestamp) and show the time in lovelace GUI (entity card). This is working fine.
If I look at this card in iOS App it shows "invalid date" instead of the time. So I find out, that I've to use timestamp_custom to reformat the timestamp... but how?

I tried %Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S. In this case the time is only corredt in Chrome. In iOS App it shows a time but it doesn't respect the offset of UTC that is +01:00.
If I use %Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S%z then it doesn't work in iOS 😦

Anyone else see this issue who ever uses the Custom Header

#

https://imgur.com/FjLaDHs

#

if you have an image set for the header and viewing on a large screen; the image keeps repeating it self

frosty elk Mar 12, 2020, 2:23 PM

#

try setting it to no-repeat?

background: no-repeat url("example.png");

icy patrol Mar 12, 2020, 2:29 PM

#

thank you @frosty elk it stopped the repeat but now it looks like this

#

https://imgur.com/ZL9mI61

frosty elk Mar 12, 2020, 2:30 PM

#

I mean...use a bigger image? not really sure what you're looking for

icy patrol Mar 12, 2020, 2:31 PM

#

i guess I would need to use an image with no text and in which case it can span as much as it wants

#

even if you find a bigger image and lets say view it on a TV screen with no-repat - it will still cut off and not go all the way

#

should be noted not to use a background with text - i will create an issue log

mild veldt Mar 13, 2020, 3:58 AM

#

@drifting horizon you can't without making a template sensor right now, but we should add that. We just added attribute support to picture-entity and state-label-element, so should probably add it to badges and glance to align them all

So do we have a card yet that can work like an entity filter, that only shows up when something matches the state you specify, and can use regex or something to dynamically pull in entities?

frosty pelican Mar 14, 2020, 1:53 AM

#

@odd light you try auto-entities? the replacement of monster card

odd light Mar 14, 2020, 1:54 AM

lemee look, I'm getting so many entities now its getting annoying to manage lol

#

oh, that looks interesting, lemee try that out

frosty pelican Mar 14, 2020, 1:55 AM

#

i used to use monster for a few things and since 0.106 switchd to auto-entities

odd light Mar 14, 2020, 1:57 AM

#

so I'm using a manual card now type: entity-filter, what do I use for auto entities:

type: custom:auto-entities
card:
  <card>
entities:
  - <entity>

#

just put entity filter as the card

#

?

odd light Mar 14, 2020, 3:04 AM

okay so it works

but when you say show empty false, it still shows a bar where the card was

little annoying, but whatevs

Top right corner, click configure UI, then top Rick corner again, click on the three dots and click RAW

Hey, has anyone had Problems with custom cards no longer being displayed on their google nest hub? Ever since HACS moved from community_plugins to hacs_files I'm having problems viewing those cards on my nest hub via the HA Cast integration. I've made a factory reset of my nest hub, still the same issue. Also I set up a completeley new HA instance yesterday but that also didn't help the issue. Can anyone please help me out?

wheat current Mar 15, 2020, 9:34 AM

It's hacsfiles and not hacs_files.
hacsfiles and community_plugin are identical

Hi Ludeeus, yes, sorry for butchering the exact directory names, I'm not blaming hacs, must have to do with the Nest hub imo

@vapid field you'll have to install full Home Assistant and not just core. There is no upgrade path.

your icon template is wrong. See correction below {% if states('sensor.sensor_gate') == 'true' %} mdi:gate {% else %} mdi:gate-open {% endif %}
However, if a sensor is a binary sensor you can just state {% if states('sensor.sensor_gate')

oh, right! It susposed to be == 'true', not == true

@polar kelp Have tried but with no success. Can you give an example?

Hello.

#

My frontend crashes every 40 minutes or so. I removed every custom component, card, add-ons, and the behaviour persists.

#

How can I debug this, even with no significant errors on HA or supervisor logs?

#

I see also the HA docker eating 100% CPU with glances add-on, a few minutes before every crash.

#

After restart, on glances there is a warning about "CPU_USER".

#

Even regressing back to 0.105.3 from 0.106.6, the issue remains. :/

#

Tested also rebuilding the HA through console, but no success either.

#

Any help would be appreciated. 🙂

@next dirge In the docs here: https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-fold-entity-row#advanced, but i use it like this, but just use auto-entities instead of the glance card. https://github.com/Dino-Tech/Home-Assistant-Main/blob/master/ui-lovelace.yaml#L1472-L1546 👨🏻‍🔧

@torpid smelt What about checking your themes? Heard one was causing similiar issues with backgrounds in the theme 🤷🏻‍♂️

#

@atomic glacier , my themes don't have backgrounds. 😦

@flint vault your YAML is not valid

#

That's probably why it does not work

@flint vault your YAML is not valid
@wheat current could you explain why it is not valid?

@torpid smelt You're better asking in #330944238910963714

It needs a string after the !include, you are giving it a list (something starting with -)

Hi guys, any idea how to disable the header bar for menu items (map, logbook, history, ...) ? I do not want to see the header bar for those.
lovelace UI seems only to affect the Overview menu item.

#

And I'm using 'custom header' for that.

#

can tasmoadmin be added to the side panel in such a way that you can use it external without going through another port? I forgot what its called.

Ingress, and that's an #add-ons-archived question ;)

I'm having a heck of a time trying to get my front end to play well after a server restart. I'm running my Home Assistant in docker and recently updated the server that it was running on prior to restarting. Once it was restarted I was unable to connect to the home assistant port via web browser and I was forced to restart the docker.socket and docker.service in order to even access Portainer. Prior to restarting I was unable to stop or even kill a container. I can now see all of the containers running, but now I'm unable to reach the front of either locally using 8123 port or using the Android app. When connecting I receive the following errors:

#

2020-03-17 04:45:28 ERROR (MainThread) [homeassistant.components.websocket_api.http.connection.XXXXXXXXXXX] Received invalid command: get_panels

2020-03-17 04:45:28 ERROR (MainThread) [homeassistant.components.websocket_api.http.connection.XXXXXXXXXXX] Received invalid command: frontend/get_themes

2020-03-17 04:45:28 ERROR (MainThread) [homeassistant.components.websocket_api.http.connection.XXXXXXXXXXX] Received invalid command: frontend/get_translations

2020-03-17 04:45:31 INFO (MainThread) [homeassistant.components.websocket_api.http.connection.XXXXXXXXXXX] Connection closed by client

#

I tried accessing the docker to see if there was a way to rebuild the container using the hass command, but that doesn't appear to be possible.

#

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm running version 1.04 at the moment
