Hi guys. Can somone get me understand how he get different colors in what seems to be sensor-cards on this screenshot ? https://camo.githubusercontent.com/143ac5b30e04707e548ae21f816f73fb2b413286/68747470733a2f2f692e696d6775722e636f6d2f467876326a72382e706e67

Hey, is it possible to declare a variable in the lovelace yaml and then use it some lines under that? Wanted to save some colors into variables at the top and then use them multiple times. Tried with Jinja, but {{ variable_name }} didnt work

sour thunder Mar 17, 2020, 3:43 PM

#

{% set _color_red = "#eb4034" %}
{% set _color_green = "green" %}

Tried adding this to the top of my file. But {{ _color_red }} doesnt return "#eb4034"

@stoic rain looks like the author needs to update it as configs are frozen now

there is a built in buttons row in 0.107

I just installed roomassistant and was wondering what is the best way to display individuals based on their locations in the frontend (picture elements) card

#

BTW....it works quite well even for iPhones

atomic glacier Mar 17, 2020, 5:31 PM

#

@raven nacelle I've got that up and running as well, and was thinking a simple floorplan would be great for this. Kinda like I started for motion detection on a per room basis. Something that would just change colors in a room based on who is in it ... any ideas or thoughts on another way to display???

raven nacelle Mar 17, 2020, 5:31 PM

#

I think conditional element would work

#

I am trying that as we speak

This issue has been plaguing me for so long. Every since 0.104.0b0 I don't receive updates. If I force it from command line, it works but then the update notice says "Home Assistant 0.104.0b0 is available and you are currently running Home Assistant 0.107.0b6." Why does it want to constantly downgrade to that version? Any ideas?

raven nacelle Mar 17, 2020, 5:35 PM

yeah, it seems to work. Let me update my config on GH

You can possibly just do it with some crazy CSS - searching the channel may find what you need 🤷

noble galleon Mar 18, 2020, 7:21 AM

#

Ok, I was just checking there wasn't some easy solution I was missing

wheat current Mar 18, 2020, 7:22 AM

#

there are probably 292 custom cards that can do it

split granite Mar 18, 2020, 7:23 AM

#

Coloured acetate would do it, as long as the icons are always in the same place on screen 🤔

noble galleon Mar 18, 2020, 7:24 AM

#

I was hoping there was just a line of code that I could add to change the default blue to red for a power icon I'm using

split granite Mar 18, 2020, 7:24 AM

For one icon, no

Are there any custom cards out there, that are able to show location history? Like TrackMap or Google Maps Timeline?

#

I guess it should be possible since all the information are stored in the backend. Something like the history card for maps

I am trying to cast to an android tablet, I have the ha cast running and logged into NABU CASA, I have an intergration installed GoogleCast, but does not have any casts found, I am a little confused on how to config the lovelace ui for casting

torpid echo Mar 18, 2020, 12:48 PM

@rustic geyser Till you figure out the Cast, you can always access through browser 🙂

#

yep I new that just trying to understnd the chrome cast side of things

torpid echo Mar 18, 2020, 12:50 PM

okay. so the instructions in https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/cast/ not helping? Pretty straightforward I think

rustic geyser Mar 18, 2020, 1:36 PM

#

I must be missing something, I have tried putting the cast entity in my lovelace UI I am I guess confused if this is put in a s a separte entry or s part of a card entry, if I could have an example it may help I hve put in the below t the bottom of my lovelace UI but does not seem to work

#

type: entities
- entities:
- hide_if_unavailable: true
type: cast
view_path: defalt_view

nothing appears on my cast device, once it logs in it just goes to a blank screen

Hello I have a problem integrating an esp32-cam via esphome. I can see that the cam is online and i can update it via the esphome add-on. But i can not add a camera-card as a resource via my configuration.yaml file. If i check the config it tells me that the resource isn't found. I have put the resource file camera-card.js in my config/www folder and added de resource local/camera-card.js to my yaml file. Am i doing something wrong?

mild veldt Mar 18, 2020, 4:03 PM

#

yes

#

resources are managed in the raw config editor if prior to 0.107 or the main config -> lovelace dashboards -> resources tab

white dust Mar 18, 2020, 4:07 PM

#

hmm ok my HA version is 0.106.6 so

#

@mild veldt what file should i edit then?

#

resources:

url: /local/www/camera-card.js?v=1
type: module

#

This is what i added to my configuration.yaml file

mild veldt Mar 18, 2020, 4:10 PM

#

in the ui, top right menu, select configure ui

#

that does not go in your configuration.yaml

white dust Mar 18, 2020, 4:10 PM

#

ok

mild veldt Mar 18, 2020, 4:11 PM

#

after selecting configure ui, go to top right menu again and select raw config editor

#

OR

#

upgrade to 0.107 later today and use the handy resource manager

white dust Mar 18, 2020, 4:12 PM

#

😉 ok i will upgrade but what do i put in the raw config editor?

mild veldt Mar 18, 2020, 4:16 PM

#

what you put in configuration.yaml

white dust Mar 18, 2020, 4:23 PM

halcyon mantle Mar 18, 2020, 7:27 PM

#

This might be stupid question - With the upcoming change to lovelace if you use 'mode:yaml' having to list the resources in configuration.yaml. Does this mean should you change anything on the resource list you must now restart HA to get the change, where previously you only had to refresh the frontend?

#

Sure

fossil compass Mar 18, 2020, 7:45 PM

#

And now they dissapeared again, haha.. depending on how QUICKLY I click on the button "hours to show", the probability of seeing a line graph increases

#

If I add only one sensor to a card, it now shows the bar graph from around 12:00, and the line graph only shows data from around 20:00?

wheat current Mar 18, 2020, 7:51 PM

#

Your sensor probably did not have a unit during the first period

#

The easy fix is to shut down HA, delete the DB and start HA again.
Or wait 24+ h

latent moss Mar 18, 2020, 8:29 PM

#

yes you need either zone: or default_config: in your configuration.yaml in order for zones to work, can be either one.

Sean, zone: didn't seem to work default_config: did

is there a way to

@mortal cape I can't just have zone: i need to define a zone just for having it show up.. seems an oversight , am i missing something.

hi y'all! I've got a problem with (i think ) a simple answer. I installed this: https://github.com/sdelliot/pie-chart-card - it's in my hassio/config/www/community/pie-chart-card/ folder (installed the same way all my others are added, that work fine). I made sure the js file was there. I've added it in the config/lovelace/resources as a module but when I add it I get Custom element doesn't exist: pie-chart-card.

#

any idea what i should do to resolve this?

#

i added all my old ones the old fashioned way, by editing the main file, but seems the new versions of HA use this new editor

#

can anyone throw me a bone?

#

oh and i added it using HACS

atomic halo Mar 18, 2020, 10:06 PM

#

slowly working this out... 2020-03-18 21:55:37 WARNING (MainThread) [hacs.deprecated] The '/community_plugin/' is deprecated and will be removed in an upcomming version of HACS, it has been replaced by '/hacsfiles/', if you use the UI to manage your lovelace configuration, you can update this by going to the settings tab in HACS, if you use YAML to manage your lovelace configuration, you manually need to replace the URL in your resources.

#

aha! found the "update resources" button 🙂

#

so this changed all the resources entries to use the /hacfiles/ path. i renamed the community_plugin folder

#

and restarted. everythng works as normal. apart from Custom element doesn't exist: pie-chart-card.

odd light Mar 19, 2020, 1:36 AM

#

I just have lovelace: with no mode

icy patrol Mar 19, 2020, 1:37 AM

#

@tame dove yes i do

#

many

tame dove Mar 19, 2020, 1:40 AM

#

So, at the top of you lovelace.yaml, you had to specify those cards under a line titled resources:. With the new dashboards, those lines have been moved to the configuration.yaml. Read the release notes. Pretty simple breaking change. Depending on your yaml mode, HAss may have made the changes for you and you just need to delete the lines in ui-lovelace.yaml @icy patrol

odd light Mar 19, 2020, 1:40 AM

#

yeah I use the gui to configure my cards so in HACS settings there was a button to just have it fix it for me.

tame dove Mar 19, 2020, 1:42 AM

#

I still use core in a VEnv

icy patrol Mar 19, 2020, 1:42 AM

#

yes i have resources: in my ui-lovelace.yaml

#

but where do those go now?

tame dove Mar 19, 2020, 1:42 AM

#

Although I installed OpenMediaVault today and saw a reference to docker.....got me excited

#

Read the breaking changes man

icy patrol Mar 19, 2020, 1:43 AM

#

if i remove; dont i have to enter them in when using a custom card?

tame dove Mar 19, 2020, 1:43 AM

#

Help me help you

#

It’s all in the notes

#

It goes in the configuration.yaml

thank you; i will read it over

Anyone having trouble adding cards or accessing their profile in HA ver 107? CAnt seem to do anything after the upgrade?

#

HA freezes when adding a card....

Hey, quick couple questions about the new update. Is there a way to cast the additional lovelace dashboards? Can you remove the header so you have a fullscreen panel?

icy patrol Mar 19, 2020, 5:15 AM

#

i am trying to add some sort of title bar at the top as per my screenshot:

but i am not sure what to use that will go above my entities on the home page and go all the way across

keen quartz Mar 19, 2020, 6:01 AM

#

I haven't updated Hassio in over a year. I have a lot of breaking changes I'm working through but I wanted to ask if anyone can tell me why I have like 1000 icons on my main screen and all of the tabs I had created are gone. I remember them talking about it in a podcast episode a while back but I can't figure out which one.

#

Here is an example

#

Oh I guess I can't paste a picture here?

frosty pelican Mar 19, 2020, 6:05 AM

#

you can use imgur to share a picture

#

the big change that you are experiencing is that the States UI that used groups for the frontend is removed....now you need to use Lovelace. https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace

#

it's my local HA ip address with multiple 2 digit numbers after it

way too many things to list from a year ago but thats the big one

keen quartz Mar 19, 2020, 6:07 AM

#

I was using lovelace a year or so ago for the tabs but I did the option where I manually update it not let Lovelace manage it. should i turn that option on?
is there any way to salvage the groups I have in my prior lovelace setup?

frosty pelican Mar 19, 2020, 6:07 AM

#

groups still work, just not for UI purposes

keen quartz Mar 19, 2020, 6:07 AM

#

do I need to do it all on the UI then? Can't be done in yaml?

frosty pelican Mar 19, 2020, 6:07 AM

#

i think you have a lot of reading to do on the docs to find out what you need to chagne to get back to where you are

#

you can do it in yaml

#

check the link i sent

keen quartz Mar 19, 2020, 6:09 AM

#

I did check the link but didn't see a lot of info. A short demo video

#

and then it said for help come here or the forums

is it pretty much just automation where -alias is allowed?

#

thats the only place that I use them

keen quartz Mar 19, 2020, 6:13 AM

frosty pelican Mar 19, 2020, 6:14 AM

umm there might be some command line stuff to use but probably offtopic for this room lol

keen quartz Mar 19, 2020, 6:14 AM

#

ctrl+f is a little helpful but I don't know how to do a wildcard for a varying length to do a search and replace

#

oh ya I'm pretty green with cmd line anyway

#

quick question. are ' allowed in alias names? I notice yours don't use any but I wondered if that is a new rule

#

alias: '103.1 Comedy Room Select'

#

vs - alias: 103.1 Comedy Room Select

You don't have to quote strings if they don't contain anything special. IMO it's better practice though

What is the correct way to load the resources in the lovelace integration?

#

I did this:

lovelace:
  mode: yaml
  resources: !include_dir_list ../lovelace/resources

But it didn't load anymore 🤔

wheat current Mar 19, 2020, 11:40 AM

#

that is a relative path, make sure it's correct

robust garden Mar 19, 2020, 11:41 AM

So far I know this path should be correct 🤷🏻‍♂️

wheat current Mar 19, 2020, 11:42 AM

lovelace/resources/*.yaml
?

robust garden Mar 19, 2020, 11:43 AM

no error?

The only error that I get is in the frontend that it won't load the cards 😛 Custom element doesn't exist: fold-entity-row.

I am on 107. I created a new dashboard. But if I make this as "Set as default..." the original "Overview" dashboard vanishes from the side panel.

wind dirge Mar 19, 2020, 12:37 PM

#

Apparently, you cannot specify a path for the dashboards yaml. Is it by design?

wheat current Mar 19, 2020, 12:39 PM

#

sure you can, the path is from the key you give it

wind dirge Mar 19, 2020, 12:41 PM

#

I mean "filename: /config/lovelace/ui-kiosk.yaml" leads to an autogenerated dashboard, and it shows as "configlovelaceui-kiosk.yaml" in the dashboard ui

#

That's for the new "multiple Lovelace dashboards" in case I wasn't obvious 😉

hot gyro Mar 19, 2020, 12:59 PM

I got a similar issue and cant figure out whats wrong, since I upgraded to 107.1 I get this "Custom element doesn't exist: hui-picture-elements-card."

all other customs are actually working

Hi Guys, I have a small problem since updating to 107(1) - I get an error message on my lovelace page for a thing that is not there. The error is "Custom element doesn't exist: hui-conditional-card." I have never installed a custom conditional card, the YAML for the section just has type: conditional in it. Does anyone have an idea by any chance?

#

Ah I think i found it, seems to be the custom:vertical-stack-in-card - when it has a type: conditional, it throws the error

violet talon Mar 19, 2020, 1:28 PM

if I'm using HACS, do I still need a ui-lovelace.yaml with resources in it?

hi guys

#

is there any card which allows to browse and drill down into the areas?

#

E.g. I want top display the status of the attics ("all windows closed and all lights off = green, else = red"), and also to be able to drill down into the attics "entity" and see the single lights/sensors...

livid escarp Mar 19, 2020, 2:30 PM

#

greetings folks

#

I was directed here from the #330944238910963714 page

#

I am trying to get the color of a custom icon to change. I have a tplink smart switch that is used to control my exterior lights. in HA UI I want to change the icon from a lightning bolt to a light bulb and I have been able to do that part of the process

#

by adding ```switch.front_exterior_lights:
icon: mdi:lightbulb

#

to my customize.yaml

#

that works and now on my lights tab I have an entity card that looks like this: ``` entities:

entity: light.bath_light
entity: light.office_light
entity: switch.front_exterior_lights
type: entities ```

#

so I am trying to get the switch.front_exterior_lights icon to be yellow when the state is on and default color blue when the state is anything else (off)

#

someone mentioned to use state_color: true in the entity card but I am not sure where to add that

#

and then if I make the state_color: true where to I put the color values for the switch.front_exterior_lights

#

both the bath light and the office light lightbulb icons are yellow when on and blue when off and I am trying to get the same effect from the switch

sacred turtle Mar 19, 2020, 2:36 PM

#

entities:

entity: light.bath_light
entity: light.office_light
entity: switch.front_exterior_lights
type: entities
state_color: true

#

that will make the icon change color again

#

as for manipulating what color it changes to.. i'm not sure

livid escarp Mar 19, 2020, 2:38 PM

#

when I put that state_color: true I get this: Expected a value of type undefined for state_color but received true.

sacred turtle Mar 19, 2020, 2:38 PM

#

yep, you will.. but it will still work

livid escarp Mar 19, 2020, 2:38 PM

#

ok

sacred turtle Mar 19, 2020, 2:38 PM

#

they are meant to be adding it as a gui option, but until you do it errors.

#

to use the visual editor you have to remove that line temporarily.

livid escarp Mar 19, 2020, 2:38 PM

#

ok I am good with errors

#

now to figure out where to say when on for example have the icon green and when off icon red

#

let me try the icon_color: in the customize file

sacred turtle Mar 19, 2020, 2:40 PM

#

maybe : icon_color: if (state === 'on') return 'red'; else return 'green';

livid escarp Mar 19, 2020, 2:41 PM

#

aaaaaah so now the icon turns yellow

#

after adding the state_color: true command

sacred turtle Mar 19, 2020, 2:41 PM

#

yep

#

I thought the lovelace resource change wasn't yet breaking, but my views break unless I move resource to my configuration...

#

I can't imagine I'm the only one who has this problem, but I can't find any issues regarding this...just the mention in the release notes.

wheat current Mar 19, 2020, 4:09 PM

If yaml mode, you need to move them

hearty plover Mar 19, 2020, 4:10 PM

#

Crap...did I miss that?

#

Thanks Ludeeus

#

Hmm. This snippet from the release blog entry is misleading, then:
This awesome new feature comes with a deprecation if you use Lovelace in manual YAML mode: You need to move the resource section from your ui-lovelace.yaml to the lovelace: section in configuration.yaml. It is not a breaking change yet; we still load them from the previous location if we didn’t find anything in the lovelace: section, however, this fallback is being removed in a future version.

Greetings folks. I have a Light Sensor to measure the light under my sleep number bed so I can then have it turn on other lights in the house. When I try to create a graph for the light sensor it bogs down my Home Assistant to a point that it is unusable. Has anyone run into issues like this with graphs and is there a way to make them work? I have other graphs and they seem to work just fine

#

The light sensor uses mqtt by the way if that matters for graphing

split granite Mar 19, 2020, 4:38 PM

It may be a data point volume issue - too many data points

@mild veldt is there any breaking changes in your latest release for the decluttering-card? As far as I can see from the release info there shouldn't, but once I updated it I started to have a lot of "Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: Cannot read property 'state' of null" errors in the console

My Hassio RPi installation doesn’t show new HA updates anymore… I’m stuck on 104.3. Found this error message:

Trying to create a few new dashboards under 1.07 and but would like to NOT show the sidebar with History and Logbook for these, anyone got any advice?

all of my q_cards with fold-entity-rows in them were throwing red blocks custom element doesn't exist **'hui-section-row'** raised_eye I added them back in my LL file and then they loaded. No hurry here, just thought I'd throw it out there...Thanks!

yes, Version 15. It works fine, just not in q-card for me

@main meteor the one you are having problems with. I added most of my main ones

Is the problem for me related?

polar kelp Mar 20, 2020, 7:52 AM

No.

#

Your problem is because the custom:hui- was never supported in the first place, but a dirty hack.

atomic glacier Mar 20, 2020, 7:53 AM

I actually got it to load and work without the section row. Was weirdd looking, lol

It's a damn useful dirty hack, though. So I'll see if I can come up with another.

atomic glacier Mar 20, 2020, 7:54 AM

I have it everywhere...

polar kelp Mar 20, 2020, 7:54 AM

#

You could probably force it to preload by adding an empty entity-filter card before the one you posted.

main meteor Mar 20, 2020, 7:55 AM

#

A "std" entity filter card won't work inside a folded row?

polar kelp Mar 20, 2020, 7:55 AM

#

Just yaml type: entity-filter entities: [] state_filter: [] or whatever is needed.

#

Wait.. that will show a small card...

#

This should work. Sorry for posting pictures of code.

polar kelp Mar 20, 2020, 7:59 AM

#

That should force the entity-filter card to load.

#

It's ok. I can reproduce the problem, so I can debug it.

main meteor Mar 20, 2020, 7:59 AM

#

So should I add that too?

polar kelp Mar 20, 2020, 8:00 AM

#

Yes. Try that as a separate card. Not inside the one you already have, but on the same view.

#

Or, when I open my eyes and actually look at what your'e trying to do, you could use auto-entities, which does the same thing as entity-filter but better.

main meteor Mar 20, 2020, 8:07 AM

#

Its ok to add it inside the vertical stack?

polar kelp Mar 20, 2020, 8:07 AM

#

I guess

polar kelp Mar 20, 2020, 8:43 AM

#

I can't really "fix" this problem. But you could try auto-entities instead of entity-filter. https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-auto-entities

#

No, sorry then it all crashed again

No other way to apply a state filter to a folded-row card?

You can't make it the same, you might get it somewhat similar

cosmic gazelle Mar 20, 2020, 10:17 AM

damn that's what I was afraid of. Would newly added devices show? Or do I have to go to "unused entities" and look for them there?

I don't think so, should I?

sacred quarry Mar 20, 2020, 1:54 PM

#

Well if you should use it is up to you, I am just trying to figure out what can be the cause.

#

I am asking because that kind of error for "non-custom" cards seems to be related to an updated that came with 0.107.0+ that broke some custom plugins that are not yet updated for the new functionality

#

The code itself to me looks alright, are you using the Lovelace editor or yaml code?

left aspen Mar 20, 2020, 2:15 PM

#

I am already with the latest version. 107.1. I noticed now that the recources should now be separate from the lovelace. I haven't used lovelace.yaml in a while ...

#

It is strange, but for the popup to work I have to call a service: browser_mod.navigate first and then this browser_mod.popup

sacred quarry Mar 20, 2020, 2:20 PM

#

That's strange, are you using latest release? As far as I can see you should only use the popup: https://github.com/thomasloven/hass-browser_mod#popup

Hello, all. Ever since, I believe, the .107 release, all of my media control cards except one have been gray. No indication that they are broken, but they seem to no longer indicate activity, and like I said, they are now gray. Did I miss a breaking change?

mild veldt Mar 20, 2020, 7:48 PM

@smoky peak there was a rewrite of the card, but nothing that should have broken. what kind of devices and what are their current "state"?

They are like TVs and firesticks, etc. Current states on them vary from off to unavailable to idle.

unavailable and unknown - gray

mild veldt Mar 20, 2020, 8:12 PM

off - gray, as well

raw brook Mar 20, 2020, 8:12 PM

true

#

Yes, precisely like that. They did not look like that before, even if in those states.
@smoky peak Yes of course they didn't look like this. This is a complete redesign 😛

#

Off, Unavailable and Unknown are states where Media cannot be played from. Meaning pressing play in those states does nothing. So they are Grey

Idle - Media Players in Idle mean they are on and can be played to or from. Kind of like an Idle car. Its ready to go. Just put it in drive

@lavish solar a sensor? no. what docs are you reading that say that it should? what would that even mean? a sensor can be literally anything

Hi, I have recently updated to 107.3 (not on 107.4 yet) and seen the new Helpers interface but it only informs me about ones defined in YAML, not edit them.

Is it too early days to expect it to behave like Automations and Scripts where you can edit the same thing in YAML and the interface? Release notes don't specify and the documentation doesn't seem to have caught up yet when I searched.

hey guys, i have a short question, i maging my floorplan at the moment and i wantet to ask is it posible to dim a light up/down with a hold_action and if i let go it stop dimming up/down?

atomic glacier Mar 21, 2020, 3:11 PM

#

@left aspen I have used several different methods and find that a browser-mod popup works the best for me. I have a clock popup and a black screen popup that are both full screen. The transition is instant for screen wakes either by motion or camera motion popups. I am currently running this set up on 2 Windows panels, an Android tabl on FKB and my alarm keypad is using Wallpanel. All give the same responses.

left aspen Mar 21, 2020, 3:16 PM

#

@atomic glacier and who do you use as a trigger to run the popup clock? the binary sensor of tablet?

atomic glacier Mar 21, 2020, 3:19 PM

#

Regular motion sensor and automation. I had the Windows tabs first and they didn't have any external or internal settings to control the screen so I had to figure out another way. Give me a sec and I'll post the link

#

The night light is the trigger in this automation because I added a motion sensor to a wifi night light. The timer for the light is ran by Tasmota so I could control the length of the on/off time for the motion sensor, (for cool down period to eliminate false triggers). The same automation can just be a regular motion sensor though. https://github.com/Dino-Tech/Home-Assistant-Main/blob/master/automations.yaml#L272-L327 and the scripts are here https://github.com/Dino-Tech/Home-Assistant-Main/blob/master/scripts.yaml#L729-L778 @left aspen

left aspen Mar 21, 2020, 3:32 PM

#

I'm asking this because, imagine, the binary_sensor of tablet is "off" after a 2min delay calls the popup clock. So far so good. The problem is when the binary_sensor goes "on" (due to someone, and here I am calling no command to "on") and return to the "off" state again it will be on delay 2 again, and if I do one popup camera in this delay 2 the popup camera disappears because the popup clock appeared. Due to the delay .. I don't know if I made myself understood

atomic glacier Mar 21, 2020, 3:40 PM

#

Yes, I have an 8 minute delay for my screen saver before the clock screen is activated. The only real issue for me is when multiple camera popups are trying to open at once, but the result is the most current camera motion popup overrides the others. I only use the FKB setting for time out on the tablets at bedtime and when house is vacated. Other than that the tablet stays on always displaying the clock so there is no actual 'wake up' for the tab, just closing a popup.

left aspen Mar 21, 2020, 3:44 PM

#

maybe my solution with the tablet sensor is to increase it to more than 2min

atomic glacier Mar 21, 2020, 3:45 PM

#

Yeah, that definitely wouldn't hurt to try.

This set up was originally designed and worked on 2 Windows tablet with no ability to control the on/off or sleep/wake functions. After adding 2 Android tabs, I just left it the way it has been working for almost 2 years. Just didn't have a need to reinvent the wheel

#

I do like the FKB control for a true browser-mod blackout screen for the Androids, as the Windows tablets never really go off, but they are cheap and haven't burned out yet

left aspen Mar 21, 2020, 3:52 PM

#

yes, good would also be to have a popup clock screensaver identical to android. With clock and date and maybe moving

#

their automation / scripts are many and help us a lot as an example. You are the king of the popup 👍

          name: Becuri hol

       service: light.toggle

split granite Mar 21, 2020, 6:37 PM

That's not how you do it

You define the light group in configuration.yaml - that creates a light entity

You use that light entity in your Lovelace

@raven nacelle I have used 'dummy' entities to achieve what you are asking. I just added them in and they added a right margin where they should have been, thus moving the switch to the left and out of the way of the timestamp... it worked 🤷🏻‍♂️ but since then changed my set up 👨🏻‍🔧

atomic glacier Mar 22, 2020, 3:45 PM

@delicate basalt AFAIK you can navigate to the URL via tap_action
@sacred quarry Looks like maybe the card is trying to compile without the entities or something. Have you tried the card-preloader plugin? 🤷🏻‍♂️ Only thing that has worked for me so far is that

#

@icy patrol Easiest way is probably custom-header and device_id or just use the URL for the new dash for the mobile login 🤔

icy patrol Mar 22, 2020, 3:52 PM

Not exactly sure, haven't had a chance to make another dash, but the new dash you create should have a different URL that can be used to navigate to...and then use that to open up from your mobile. I'll try it out and make one after coffee☕ so I can be sure.🧐

Only other way would be to mod the card itself, but waaayyy too much trouble when there are soo many custom cards already out there 🤷🏻‍♂️

Could somebody give me some hints on installing a custom card through the UI? I'm trying to get this working: https://github.com/benct/lovelace-xiaomi-vacuum-card . I've put the files in the correct location and added the js resource under configuration|lovelace dashboards|resources. I've then added a "manual" card and copied in this: "- type: custom:xiaomi-vacuum-card
entity: vacuum.xiaomi_vacuum_cleaner" but it says "No card type configured.". I'm obviously missing a step or two.

Quick question -- I'm looking for a way to use something like a picture-glance card but have the values of sensors show in the bottom strip instead of the icon. Ie, for a temperature sensor, I want it to show the temperature, not the thermometer icon. Is there a way to do that?

mild veldt Mar 22, 2020, 9:37 PM

#

@drifting cove yes, check the docs

elder remnant Mar 22, 2020, 9:37 PM

#

@mild veldt Thanks, I have but am now getting "Custom element doesn't exist: xiaomi-vacuum-card"

mild veldt Mar 22, 2020, 9:38 PM

#

Then you didn't install it properly

elder remnant Mar 22, 2020, 9:40 PM

#

There don't seem to be instructions to install using the UI so I'm winging it. I've put the .js in www and added "/local/xiaomi-vacuum-card.js?v=3.0.1" as a resource, what have i missed?

drifting cove Mar 22, 2020, 9:40 PM

#

Thanks @mild veldt , I have. The docs for picture-glance mention "show-state" but there is no place to configure this within the UI editor. Going to try via raw editor, but I wanted to check here to see if this is the proper way to do this.

mild veldt Mar 22, 2020, 9:42 PM

#

@elder remnant remove the ?v=3.0.1

#

@drifting cove not everything is in the UI editors

#

You don't need the full raw config editor

prisma stone Mar 22, 2020, 9:43 PM

#

Hi guys, in configuration.yaml section http, whats the api password, why do i need it and where should i get it from

mild veldt Mar 22, 2020, 9:43 PM

#

Just show the code editor when you have the edit card dialog open

drifting cove Mar 22, 2020, 9:43 PM

#

Show State (which the raw editor complains is an error but does seem to work) isn't doing quite what I want - it is putting the state value below the icon. I'm hoping to entirely replace the icon with the state value.

mild veldt Mar 22, 2020, 9:44 PM

#

It's a warning that the UI editor doesn't support it

#

You could give a fake icon

#

icon: mdi:fake

#

@prisma stone that's an old config item. No longer used as far as I know

devout hatch Mar 22, 2020, 9:46 PM

why my themes in my profile page is disabled? I removed themes because its obsolete..I had a warning

#

and now I dont have any theme 🙂

drifting cove Mar 22, 2020, 9:47 PM

#

Neat idea - and it does remove the icon, but the spacing is all wrong. But no worries - I can adapt. I was just wondering if there was another card or other config that might do this.

mild veldt Mar 22, 2020, 9:47 PM

Themes are obsolete? What brought you to that conclusion?

@mild veldt so to setup remote access i just need the base_url right?

@drifting cove could use picture elements and make it exactly how you want

@mild veldt still getting the same, restarted but it still says "Custom element doesn't exist: xiaomi-vacuum-card". I'm trying to add this to a new dashboard, maybe thats the issue.

@elder remnant no resources are shared among all dashboards

drifting cove Mar 22, 2020, 9:49 PM

@mild veldt I use picture-elements for a different view. But in this case, I'm trying to display a live camera feed with some sensor data in the bar at bottom. Ie, a view of a room with listings for temperature, humidity, .... Docs don't seem to indicate that picture-element can pull background image from a live camera.

@elder remnant anything in the browser console output?

@drifting cove yeah I think you're right. Should probably add that

Could put an image element down and make it the full width

Is there a way to change the icon by state in Lovelace yet?

vapid field Mar 22, 2020, 10:56 PM

#

hi, just updated to 107.5 and trying to test the new dashboards, i have this in configuration.yaml:
lovelace:
mode: yaml
dashboards:
lovelace-generated:
<omitted>
lovelace-main:
<omitted>

My idea is to link the existing dashboard plus to get an autogenerated one for inspiration 🙂
But the UI loads my existing ui-lovelace.yaml dashboard only. I tried deleting that file and moving my dashboard from it to another file/filename (linked by filename: .. in the lovelace-main: above)
But then the UI breaks because of missing ui-lovelace.yaml file
Any idea what i am doing wrong?

drifting cove Mar 22, 2020, 11:05 PM

#

@vapid field I just did the same thing. Here's what I did:
Change second line to "mode: storage" then add a dashboard of type yaml in the dashboards section. Set this to your existing ui-lovelace.yaml file. Restart HA. Your primary view will now be the auto generated one (which you probably don't want. Go to Configuration, Lovelace dashboards and add another view (which will also be autogenerated). Then set your YAML view in the list to be default. You'll still have the original auto-genereated view in the list, but it won't show up in the sidebar.

vapid field Mar 22, 2020, 11:10 PM

#

thanks @drifting cove , your 'Restart HA' tipped me off to try restarting HA 🙂 and my changes are now picked up.
I ended up using the above config but removed my dashboard from it, just have the auto-generated one. My custom dashboard is in the ui-lovelace.yaml file still and it works. I did not expect a restart is needed for lovelace? But it works kinda as i expected after i read the release notes. Thanks!

drifting cove Mar 22, 2020, 11:12 PM

#

Restart needed due to changes in configuration.yaml. Once done, all changes in frontend won't require a restart.

vapid field Mar 22, 2020, 11:13 PM

#

Hmm, it picked up some changes, enough to break, but not all subsystems i guess without restart. Thanks ill keep it in mind

@heavy cove guessing you have it wrapped inside something?

You likely just need to update the card. Thomas fixed it for 0.107, I believe

If so, have you tried making one for mobile? Seems like when you set your phone to default for a new mobile yaml dashboard. It is not loading some resources correctly

resources that are imported with type: js will not be removed, you need to do that

For most custom stuff, just using module instead will work

Glance Card question: I have an icon in a glance card that when pressed manually executes an automation. Problem is the icon is yellow unlike all the other icons around it and it drives me next. "state_color: false" does not change it

#

its of course yellow because the "automation" itself stays toggled on

lavish solar Mar 23, 2020, 2:18 PM

#

does the automation run by itself ever?

marsh wyvern Mar 23, 2020, 2:19 PM

#

yes

#

but sometimes i have to manually run it because of a non-regular day

lavish solar Mar 23, 2020, 2:20 PM

#

there may be icon color front end solutions (i have no idea) - but you could create a script that does the same thing and expose it instead of the automation. i think that would work.

marsh wyvern Mar 23, 2020, 2:21 PM

#

ahh your right..

#

just a script to execute the automation

lavish solar Mar 23, 2020, 2:22 PM

#

actually yah - my original thought was to dupe the automation logic into a script, but yours would avoid that

marsh wyvern Mar 23, 2020, 2:31 PM

#

now what about...

#

clicking on the icon just running it instead of bringing up another screen where i have to click execute

lavish solar Mar 23, 2020, 2:32 PM

#

yeah i'd assume you'd configure the tap action to execute

#

could have it execute the automation directly too

marsh wyvern Mar 23, 2020, 2:32 PM

#

ahh weird i thought it was that by default

lavish solar Mar 23, 2020, 2:32 PM

#

it may be

#

for non sensors

marsh wyvern Mar 23, 2020, 2:33 PM

#

but yeah the script was an easy fix for the icon color thanks

lavish solar Mar 23, 2020, 2:34 PM

#

should probably open an issue in github for the state_color: false not working for an automation entity.

mild veldt Mar 23, 2020, 2:51 PM

Hi. I'm new at HA and trying to figure things out. I can't seem to find the answer to this in docs....which yaml files stores the configs for the entity cards? I mean the configs auto-generated when one uses the UI to create the entity card.

grave forge Mar 23, 2020, 4:31 PM

#

I'm having a problem setting up custom cards, Tried several with all the same results, big-number-card, mini-graph-card, bar-card.
I'm getting a msg "this._configElement is undefined" while manually adding the custom card. Any advice?

#

here's an example

entity: sensor.blind_encoder_left
title: Default
type: 'custom:bar-card'

I'm using the latest HACS
OK, I'll answer my own question.
If you copy/paste from the examples, you need to remove 2 spaces from the beginning of each line.

Hey guys; i created a new dashboard to be used for mobiles devices and when i set it as default on my mobile; i find that some resources dont work and show red squares as well as the custom header

#

Yet if i visit the new dash URL directly it works

#

what gives?

polar kelp Mar 23, 2020, 5:08 PM

#

@grave forge That's the syntax you'd use if adding the card manually to ui-lovelace.yaml or the raw editor, when it's one card in a list.

#

If you're using the GUI editor and add a custom card with the orange plus circle thingy, you should just add the single card configuration.

#

If you want to learn some amazing stuff, take that information and read this: http://thomasloven.com/blog/2018/08/YAML-For-Nonprogrammers/

#

If you just want it to work ||remove the first - and dedent every row two spaces||.

Weird question, does the “divider” entity work in any cards for anyone in 0.107.5? I have a custom one with text which works, but the default one doesn’t work.

I keep getting the error that it’s an unknown type.

polar kelp Mar 23, 2020, 5:41 PM

#

Should work in stock cards, but might not in custom ones.

Well I’m using it in a vertical stack, but it’s not happy...

      - light.light_6

polar kelp Mar 23, 2020, 6:00 PM

#

With the custom:hui-divider-entity-row-trick?

#

That's not entirely reliable any more.

#

You can make it work more often if you also have a divider in an entities card somewhere, but it's not guaranteed.

mild veldt Mar 23, 2020, 6:39 PM

it is a row, so it should be in the entities card @nova perch , not as a card inside the stack

I'd ask in #330944238910963714 - but the SSH add-on should hopefully show them

icy patrol Mar 23, 2020, 8:56 PM

#

yea just recently it went away - always been there before

#

but its odd because i have icons in there that show up on the frontend still

#

i will ask HA

#

thanks

Does anyone else ever tweak their frontend on their phone? The YAML editor drives me nuts.

This is going to be a strange question, but is it possible to put a state icon in a picture element but have no icon show up? I'm trying to use the decluttering card (https://github.com/custom-cards/decluttering-card), but I have a lot of similar picture element cards, but some have 3 switches while others have 2. I'm trying to figure out if I could just put a "dummy" switch in one of those spots

Is there a way to change the icon by state in Lovelace yet?

#

@lament lava IMO...that's asking for trouble. I guess if it were an emergency, but otherwise...no.

#

@past falcon either way, but mdi:this-icon-does-not-exist or just mdi:fake will do for the icon

#

@small badge I use icon templates most everywhere for that, docs have several examples as well as my repo, but I also use YAML

@atomic glacier Doesn't I have to use a template sensor for every entity I want to change the icon for?

You weren't very clear on what else you needed/trying to accomplish. You should be able to assign templates per domain/entity type globally. Or customize per entity for just changing the icon.
