You went from having no views to having views very quickly there 🤨

#

When does the error appear?

rustic lynx Aug 1, 2020, 3:46 PM

#

two days ago i think

#

should i remove that two views ?and how ?

karmic tiger Aug 1, 2020, 3:50 PM

#

When as in 'what are you doing' when it appears?

rustic lynx Aug 1, 2020, 3:57 PM

#

i dont no sorry ...I know I should know so you can help me but I really don't know

#

but should i remove the view from that file ?

dark dirge Aug 1, 2020, 4:05 PM

#

this is quite the continuing saga...

rustic lynx Aug 1, 2020, 4:06 PM

#

yes @dark dirge

#

your solution dont work... i dont have views i guess.... just in that file

broken marsh Aug 1, 2020, 5:56 PM

#

How do I figure out where this comes from? ```Icon mdi:file-document-box-outline was renamed to mdi:text-box-outline, please change your config, it will be removed in version 0.115.

wheat current Aug 1, 2020, 6:00 PM

#

that's most likely the log-viewer addon

Good catch. Thanks.

#

How do I display the remaining time of a timer to lovelace?

#

The obvious take is to display it with the entities card but that leaves me with limited styling options

polar kelp Aug 1, 2020, 6:24 PM

#

🎉 More-info-card should now work with Home Assistant 0.113.

#

Had to remove the history graph for the time being, though.

distant stag Aug 1, 2020, 6:26 PM

#

Oh that'd be a cool solution thanks

#

But it won't fit that space

#

I'm trying to display it in the bottom middle box https://imgur.com/ByaEa1l

#

I basically figured everything out I just have to somehow get the remaining time there

#

Is there really no attribute/state for the current remaining time that must be a joke

polar kelp Aug 1, 2020, 6:29 PM

#

That was not an answer to you. It was just a public announcement.

distant stag Aug 1, 2020, 6:30 PM

#

Haha but could have been a solution anyways:D

dark dirge Aug 1, 2020, 6:31 PM

#

I had a similar issue trying to display remaining time and couldn’t make it work outside if just displaying the entity. I ended up switching to a ‘manual’ timer with an input_number and automaton with a time_pattern

distant stag Aug 1, 2020, 6:31 PM

#

Guess I'll do that as well

dark dirge Aug 1, 2020, 6:31 PM

#

It’s pretty ugly, but functional

distant stag Aug 1, 2020, 6:32 PM

#

I just find it ridiculous that there is a timer component that doesn't show its remaining time

#

It's like a clock entity that doesnt show time

polar kelp Aug 1, 2020, 6:32 PM

#

I'm not sure, but looking at the source it seems a state-badge may display the remaining time: https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/picture-elements/#state-badge

rustic lynx Aug 1, 2020, 6:32 PM

#

@dark dirge any solution for my problem ?

dark dirge Aug 1, 2020, 6:34 PM

#

You can display the remaining time in a card by using the entity, but if you start playing games with templates and such, it reverts to running/idle

distant stag Aug 1, 2020, 6:36 PM

#

The annoying thing is that I could have written the whole thing in node-red to not use the timer component

dark dirge Aug 1, 2020, 6:37 PM

#

I wanted to sometimes display the time and sometimes other text in a button card and that’s where I ran into trouble

polar kelp Aug 1, 2020, 6:37 PM

#

@rustic lynx It seems you have a group somewhere that hasn't been updated for seven months or so, that still has a view parameter.

dark dirge Aug 1, 2020, 6:37 PM

#

Several of us have been saying that for a while

polar kelp Aug 1, 2020, 6:38 PM

#

It's called default_view too, which means it's even older than that.

#

So try searching for that.

#

This is not really a frontend problem (since many many versions) but an integrations one, so it's not in your lovelace configuration.

distant stag Aug 1, 2020, 6:45 PM

#

https://imgur.com/tuW1Mad Why is the timer entity's remaining time not in frame

#

Can it not fit a 3 wide horizontal-stack or did I misconfig something?

#

                    entities:
                      - entity: timer.irrigation_time_left
                        name: K```

#

Welp seems like regardless of the length of the name it can't fit into a 3 wide horizontal-stack

#

God damn do I hate home assistant sometimes

polar kelp Aug 1, 2020, 6:51 PM

#

If it helps, there's a good technical reason why most things can't handle displaying the timer...

distant stag Aug 1, 2020, 6:52 PM

#

I'd be happy to hear

#

I learned that if something is annoying with home assistant the devs probably noticed it also, but it would take rewriting something to fix it so they dont deem it worth their time

polar kelp Aug 1, 2020, 6:54 PM

#

Basically, the timer runs in the backend, and the frontend only gets occasional updates about its state. So when it's running, the frontend element that displays it must keep track of the time that's passed since the last update as well as the value in that update.

#

In some cases, that could increase the workload three times or more.

distant stag Aug 1, 2020, 6:55 PM

Hi, I have 1 light with 3 bulbs (ikea trådfri) , How can I control these as one unit? I have allready added a group of them in my configuration.yaml

polar kelp Aug 1, 2020, 7:24 PM

#

You should use a light group instead of a group: https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/light.group/

#

That will create a new light. entity that controls all three.

hearty topaz Aug 1, 2020, 7:25 PM

#

Thank you, I solved it

#

had to edit the card, and and the group as entity

forest smelt Aug 1, 2020, 7:28 PM

Friends can You please test my problem: select any entity (with related content) in frontend and click on Related and then select some related item and click on it- nothing happens as next popup window hides behind previous- only way to see it is click 'x' 😦 Saw this issue in HA forums but unable to find the post 🙂 Running core/venv latest.

@polar kelp I did what you said, I amvery bad at explaining

half cairn Aug 1, 2020, 8:40 PM

#

Sup guys :)
I'm working on a picture elements card, I'd like to add all my lights to it, but some of them are a switch entity, and not a light entity. The picutre elements card doesnt support switch as entity. Is there any way around that?

polar kelp Aug 1, 2020, 8:43 PM

#

Huh? What do you mean it doesn't support switch?

half cairn Aug 1, 2020, 8:45 PM

#

when i add :

entity: switch.thomas_bedlamp (its an Ikea smart plug)
I get an error: Unsupported entity type: switch

polar kelp Aug 1, 2020, 8:45 PM

#

Where do you add that?

half cairn Aug 1, 2020, 8:46 PM

#

in the card config for the picture elements card, on same indentation as the light entities that do work (with slider)

polar kelp Aug 1, 2020, 8:46 PM

#

(also: https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/light.switch/, but I'd rather solve your actual problem, because that can't be right)

kind shellBOT Aug 1, 2020, 8:46 PM

@half cairn posted a code wall, it is moved here --> https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/RKj8VJmJ4B/

#

thats the card code

#

sorry for the wall :/

polar kelp Aug 1, 2020, 8:47 PM

#

Ok. So your problem isn't that the picture-elements doesn't support switches, it's that slider-entity-row doesn't support switches.

#

Which makes total sense, since an on/off switch can't set a brightness level.

half cairn Aug 1, 2020, 8:48 PM

My only guess is that you lose connection to the backend for some reason and it doesn't handle the reconnect correctly. Could happen if you switch to another tab, or some tabletts disconnect from the websocket to save battery.

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

No config? So you're using the default Lovelace dashboard?

Have no setup a lovelace dashboard yet

karmic tiger Aug 2, 2020, 12:40 PM

#

There ya go then. If you want full control of a dashboard, you need to actually take control.

#

All the default one does is display every entity in what it thinks is the right type of card.

mortal haven Aug 2, 2020, 12:40 PM

#

Ah okay

karmic tiger Aug 2, 2020, 12:41 PM

#

If you don't want to destroy the original, make a secondary dashboard and edit that.

Get it the way you like it, then make that one your default instead.

mortal haven Aug 2, 2020, 12:41 PM

#

I was hoping I may be able to combine default ones with custom entries

karmic tiger Aug 2, 2020, 12:41 PM

#

There's full control and there's managed by Lovelace. No in-between.

mortal haven Aug 2, 2020, 12:42 PM

#

So should I leave the overview as is

#

And create a lovelace dashboard to show things the way I want it?

#

Okie

Different themes? Yes, you set them per-user, per-device.

If you want different dashboards, you'll have to make multiple dashboards and then make each one the default on different devices.

Any idea how to best display one sensor with different states over time? I am using HERE API to fetch the district I am in via RESTful platform. I would like to display some info like: In the last two weeks I spent 30% of my time in district A, 45% of my time in district B and 25% in district C.

#

Ideally the districts are dynamic and just taken from the sensor's states.

karmic tiger Aug 2, 2020, 7:20 PM

#

If you want to do it without multiple sensors, maybe Influx+Grafana. Otherwise... multiple sensors.

#

Given you want it to be dynamic, I'd say the former.

You'll want another channel based on your installation method:

kind shellBOT Aug 3, 2020, 5:03 AM

#

Not sure which install you're using? If you have system_health enabled you can check Configuration -> Info, or see the following.

If you're using HassOS, flashed an image, or booted a VM with an image you're using #330990055533576204
If you installed Linux and then ran a script to install HA and have add-ons then you have #330944238910963714
If you're running docker commands or use a Docker manager and have no add-ons then you have #449717345808547842
Finally, if you use pip to install or upgrade you have #551864459891703809

Hi... Is there a front end which can have the image of the actual room(s) - with overlay of the lights on it/control?

#

Like CasaDigi - Eg. https://cdn.dribbble.com/users/917/screenshots/2454472/dribbble-casadigi.png

karmic tiger Aug 3, 2020, 12:00 PM

#

Yes, many ways. Check out the picture elements card or the custom floorplan card.

#

It'll take a bit of work to get perfect but you can customise Lovelace almost limitlessly.

fluid quiver Aug 3, 2020, 12:01 PM

Any ready template by chance - Not looking for exact look as CasaDigi - just similar.

And will look at lovelace!

You could maybe look at other people's examples (check the forums) but yours is going to be very personal, so there's nothing you can just copy/paste.

There's only 2 copy/paste intricate templates, Dwain's theme and @timber sonnet iOS theme. They don't look anything like what you want. But you'll also have a rough time because what you want isn't standard. You'll need various custom cards to achieve a layout similar to that.

Are you using the browser integration? If so, that's an #integrations-archived question, not a Lovelace question.

Using browsermod, and I am getting the lovelace toast notification to refresh constantly, but I am not making any changes. Forum posts on the matter didn't help resolve. Any ideas?

I have a custom card refuses to work on one computer. Both computers are viewing front end on chrome. I have restarted both machines, did lovelace reload etc. On one computer the card works fine and on the other it claims the custom card doesn't exist.

#

Any thoughts as to what is causing it

Hey everybody, I'm trying to add a custom lovelace card (first time doing this) and I'm not sure where to put the javascript file

#

Does it go in the "addons" folder and then I direct lovelace to it under the "resources" tab?

dark dirge Aug 4, 2020, 2:44 AM

#

No, it goes somewhere in config/www. Most cards have instructions for installing them, or are available through HACS and it installs them for you

random cradle Aug 4, 2020, 2:49 AM

#

hmm i dont have /www. I'm gonna install HACS I guess

dark dirge Aug 4, 2020, 2:51 AM

#

That would be best

#

It’s not there by default, so you’d have to create it and restart HA

random cradle Aug 4, 2020, 2:51 AM

#

Well I just created a custom_components folder too 😄

#

Things are getting exciting

#

How long does HACS usually take to start up? Its said its starting up and some information might be missing for quite a while, and I can't find any respositories

dark dirge Aug 4, 2020, 3:02 AM

A while. Hit the plus sign

nothing shows up

When you hit the plus sign?

It says I have the HACS integration, but i cant add anything else

correct

I mean a search dialog pops up

But it returns nothing

dark dirge Aug 4, 2020, 3:03 AM

You have to let it download a ton of data

If it tells you it’s still starting, let it finish

Its still only got 1 mb in the whole custom_components folder

which is how it started

Hi guys,
I have added my Verisure alarm to my HA install using the verisure component. It has added all my doors/windows as binary sensors. But they are shown as regular binary sensors. https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/verisure/
Is there a way to change the device class of these sensors somehow?

It's not a Lovelace thing, continue the conversation in #automations-archived

rigid rose Aug 4, 2020, 10:25 AM

#

Hi! I'm trying to have a "last changed" relative time stamp for a card, but as it is a binary sensor, i guess it's not possible? Would it be more recommended to have a extra sensor that updates every time the sensor "opens"?

errant plover Aug 4, 2020, 11:42 AM

#

It is possible, just add ```

entity: binary_sensor.your_binary_sensor
secondary_info: last-changed

fierce quarry Aug 4, 2020, 11:51 AM

#

I'm working on moving off my supervised install into just containered, is panel_iframe: still best way to go about adding ESPHome to the sidebar?

fierce quarry Aug 4, 2020, 11:54 AM

#

Ah, ascended being

#

That explains alot

rigid rose Aug 4, 2020, 11:57 AM

#

@errant plover yeah i explained poorly sorry. I want to avoid the secondary_info, having the relative time as the main sensor value. Another issue is that I wish to specify the state i want the relative time to be from. last-changed is any state change. including reboots etc.

#

I'm astonished that there isn't a way to get time since the last trigger of a specific state, not just last state change.

#

or am I completely blind not finding anything in the docs and googlefu letting me down rubber_duck

karmic tiger Aug 4, 2020, 12:05 PM

#

If you're interested in when a particular state was last triggered, you'll probably have to store that information in an input_datetime via an automation.

#

For sensors that have anything but a finite list of possible states, automatically tracking the last time every single state was triggered would be... messy.

#

sensor.time would be fun... the time was updated to 12:00:00 at 12:00:00... the time was updated to 12:00:01 at 12:00:01...

#

Repeat ad infinitum.

rigid rose Aug 4, 2020, 12:07 PM

#

😄

#

yeah i get what you mean, it's more for a binary sensor.

#

is it poss to timestamp input_datetime? then being able to print relatively to that input_datetime?

karmic tiger Aug 4, 2020, 12:08 PM

#

Well with the exception of 'unavailable' and 'unknown', there aren't a whole lot of states to remember for a binary sensor, which makes it even easier for you to use an input_boolean to track what you're interested in.

#

What do you mean by 'timestamp' it? It should take ISO dates if that's what you mean.

#

Might even take epoch time, I've never tried.

rigid rose Aug 4, 2020, 12:12 PM

#

okay thx ill try get that to work

#

okay, doesn't take epoch time. is there a variable for iso datetime?

karmic tiger Aug 4, 2020, 12:23 PM

#

I don't know what you mean. You just set a datetime: https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/input_datetime/#services

#

It takes a datetime of format %Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S.

#

So not technically ISO, I guess... my bad 😄

#

Whatever saves to / reads from that helper may need to use strftime or similar to format/parse.

tacit cave Aug 4, 2020, 1:18 PM

#

@rigid rose if you want the relative time as the main sensor time. Just make a sensor that outputs a timestamp in the format custom_timestamp("%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S.%f+00:00", false) and make sure your sensor device_class is 'timestamp'

#

but be warned, relative timestamp sensors only work in specific fields in the UI. They don't work in every card.

rigid rose Aug 4, 2020, 1:40 PM

#

@tacit cave cheers, this is a rabbits hole of complication. I made an automation to save the timestamp the last time the door has been opened using input_datetime. but now trying to figure out a smart way to show a relative way of how long ago the time stamp is.

#

would making the timestamp sensor using the input_datetime be a good option?

tacit cave Aug 4, 2020, 1:41 PM

#

it would be 100% easier

#

You'd still need the automation, but you could just write the timestamp to a input_text

#

the datetime probably also has this ability, but I don't use it. And, you'd want to have the date and time enabled on it.

#

keep your automation

rigid rose Aug 4, 2020, 1:44 PM

#

id be fine using an automation. just trying to figure the easiest and cleanest way to display how long ago it has been since the last "on" state.

tacit cave Aug 4, 2020, 1:44 PM

#

sensor:
- platform: template
  sensors:
    door_last_opened:
      value_template:
        {{ state_attr('input_datetime.xxx', 'timestamp') | timestamp_custom("%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S.%f+00:00", false) }}
      device_class: timestamp

#

that's all you need

rigid rose Aug 4, 2020, 1:45 PM

#

Ah. ill give that a shot

tacit cave Aug 4, 2020, 1:45 PM

#

but change the entity_id

rigid rose Aug 4, 2020, 2:01 PM

Hi, Im trying to use the "Light popup card (homekit style)" but i dont understand how to use it. Its installed with HACS with no errors, also browser_mod + card_mod is installed. Im following the guide https://github.com/DBuit/light-popup-card but i doing something wrong. Where do I put all the code? in ui-lovelace.yaml i presume but more exact where (yes i use ui-lovelace to code)? I want to use it in picture element card with a light. THX for helping

spark light Aug 4, 2020, 3:18 PM

#

I'm trying to understand how the panels and the sidebar work a bit. Any way to have a custom sidebar entry where I can just continue using lovelace to control what to display in that panel?

tacit cave Aug 4, 2020, 3:22 PM

#

@foggy hornet if you want to use it in a picture elements card, then use it as custom element. https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/picture-elements/#custom-elements

#

@spark light customizing the sidebar is not easy. It requires JS knowledge.

spark light Aug 4, 2020, 3:27 PM

#

Figured as much! So to get the usual lovelace editor but not in the "Overview" page, how would I approach it? Create an add-on and somehow link to lovelace? Or is there an easier way?

If it comes to it, I can just manually build what I want with React or Angular, but that seems ridiculous when there's an amazing UI editor build into HA!

tacit cave Aug 4, 2020, 3:30 PM

#

I actually don't know how to do it. But it's all JS or Typescript and you can simply build the URL links to a lovelace dashboard.

#

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

#

it would be done through extra_module_url or extra_js_url_es5

spark light Aug 4, 2020, 3:32 PM

#

Thanks for the help! Guess it's time to start digging around 🙂

#

yeah, multiple dashboards is exactly what I want! My bad for not knowing dashboards were another thing

tacit cave Aug 4, 2020, 3:36 PM

#

Well a custom sidebar would be the route I was talking. But simply adding a sidebar name is apparently done through dashboards. I was under the impression they were hidden. show_in_sidebar: true is the route to go.

spark light Aug 4, 2020, 4:09 PM

#

Bit of a follow on from the dashboards/ sidebars discussion. Would you need to do the custom sidebar thing if I wanted to add an entry to the sidebar but display a non-home assistant page, e.g. a web UI from a locally running docker container?

dark dirge Aug 4, 2020, 4:09 PM

#

that's an iframe

#

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

#

So many interconnected pieces... Thanks for the help (again)!

winter hollow Aug 4, 2020, 4:12 PM

#

you can also do it with a lovelace dashboard, single view in panel mode and the iframe card

#

gives you everything in the UI without a reboot for changes

spark light Aug 4, 2020, 4:13 PM

#

Ahhh, that's good to know!

elder pendant Aug 4, 2020, 4:20 PM

Hello, with more and more devices being made and put in as ''devices'' for example the phillips hue integrations makes the buttons as a device, because of this these are not logged in the logbook so there is no way of seing when things was pressed, is this something that is missing?

Hi thomasloven, can you be so kind to check https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-template-entity-row/issues/29 ? It’s a config mistake on my side or something that need a code review ?

polar kelp Aug 5, 2020, 11:43 AM

#

Template entity row does the bare minimum. If you want to display a processed timestamp, you'll have to do the processing as a template.

gaunt meadow Aug 5, 2020, 12:03 PM

#

@polar kelp could i just quickly ask - why is it that popups done by browser_mod tend to "jump" between tabs? eg if i have 3 tabs of HA open on one browser window, and invoke the popup, it usually shows up on some other tab than it was invoked with

polar kelp Aug 5, 2020, 12:04 PM

#

Browser_mod only works on the latest tab or window that was opened on the same machine.

gaunt meadow Aug 5, 2020, 12:05 PM

#

yes, but what's the mechanism at play here?

polar kelp Aug 5, 2020, 12:06 PM

#

When you load lovelace, browser_mod contacts the backend. This closes any other open connections from the same deviceID.

#

Otherwise you'd get e.g. a dozen tabs playing the same sound.

gaunt meadow Aug 5, 2020, 12:06 PM

#

got it, thanks for the explanation 🙂

polar kelp Aug 5, 2020, 12:07 PM

#

A simple F5 will reprioritize the tab you want.

gaunt meadow Aug 5, 2020, 12:07 PM

#

it's ok, i just wanted to know why it is like it is 🙂

#

one more question though: is popup functionality not something that lovelace provides natively to cards?

polar kelp Aug 5, 2020, 12:14 PM

#

Yes and no, but the point of browser_mod is not to be used from the frontend, but to be activated from the backend e.g. through a script or an automation.

novel finch Aug 5, 2020, 12:27 PM

#

Template entity row does the bare minimum. If you want to display a processed timestamp, you'll have to do the processing as a template.
Entity is already a timestamp device_class, and if used directly works fine

novel finch Aug 5, 2020, 1:24 PM

Reading better, I think I got the point: issue is language related. How can I display in current UI language the value if processing is done by template ?

polar kelp Aug 5, 2020, 1:33 PM

#

Maybe the relavite_time filter could help? https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/configuration/templating/#time I'm not sure.

#

Looks like your theme needs a bit more work, @neon schooner.

#

Maybe try setting the ha-card-background variable to something darker?

Does anyone use the add-on "mini-graph-card" for lovelace?

Ok, thanks for clarifying.

novel finch Aug 5, 2020, 2:05 PM

if I'm using it corerctly, seems relative_time doesn't work at all:

#

{{ relative_time(states('sensor.custom_lavastoviglie_inizio_ciclo')) }}

tacit cave Aug 5, 2020, 2:09 PM

#

@novel finch relative_time requires a datetime object. You're feeding it the state from a sensor, which is a string.

novel finch Aug 5, 2020, 2:14 PM

#

tried using as_timestamp() but no luck. Only working solution is "{{relative_time(states.input_datetime.custom_lavastoviglie_inizio.last_changed) }}"

#

but it doesn't honour UI language, value is always in English

tacit cave Aug 5, 2020, 2:14 PM

#

as timestamp returns an INT

#

relative_time is english only

novel finch Aug 5, 2020, 2:15 PM

tacit cave Aug 5, 2020, 2:16 PM

what's the original issue

novel finch Aug 5, 2020, 2:17 PM

#

is device_class the only attrib needed for front end to change from "2020-08-05T12:03:19.000000+00:00" to "3 hours ago" ?

but, it will only work on specific cards

novel finch Aug 5, 2020, 2:18 PM

#

yeah, as you can see on the issue reported, card works fine. Problem is when using the entity row to hide/show the value

#

so handling the device_class there should do the trick

tacit cave Aug 5, 2020, 2:21 PM

Yes, it should. It needs to leverage https://github.com/home-assistant/frontend/blob/dev/src/common/datetime/relative_time.ts

Can https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-template-entity-row be used as a template for a key's value in service_data of https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/actions/#tap-action ?

#

the template doesn't seem to be interpolated, the literal {{ }} string is being passed to my service call

karmic tiger Aug 5, 2020, 7:32 PM

#

In general, if a card doesn't explicitly state it takes a template, it doesn't.

#

Custom cards tend to be more flexible in that regard.

tulip wing Aug 5, 2020, 7:36 PM

#

isn't that what template-entity row allows you to do or am I reading it wrong?

#

the readme states "entity if this evaluates to an entity id, icon, name, state and image will be taken from that entity unless manually overridden. Specifying an entity will also let you use action."

#

so I have a tap action to call a service, but I need to template one of the values

#

Maybe I'm going about this the wrong way - what I want to do is set a custom attribute (not state) of a entity from a service call using a template

#

Well that looks okay except for the tap action... because that's not something that card says it allows templates for.

#

It says there are 8 options and for all 8 you can provide a template. None of those 8 are tap_action.

#

You could call a script instead and have the script get the value you're after.

tulip wing Aug 5, 2020, 8:04 PM

#

ack I thought this would have been easy to do, templating service call arguments must be something other ppl want?

#

I'll look into the script call though, thx

karmic tiger Aug 5, 2020, 8:04 PM

#

Sure... and it's perfectly achievable using scripts. That's what they're for.

#

If a custom card chooses to include that functionality, that's cool too. But it's not essential while there are other tools to do it.

#

Scripts are re-usable too 😉

is there a way to style the <ha-icon> in a markdown card? nothing i seem to do will affect the size.

grim halo Aug 6, 2020, 3:02 AM

#

Is anyone on at the moment? I'm trying to setup a picture lovelace card that I can tap on to toggle the status of an input_boolean. This is what I have so far:

tap_action:
  action: call-service
  service: input_boolean.toggle
  service_data:
    entity_id: input_boolean.garbage_taken_out```
This is not working for me. Anyone got any advice? I'm guessing it's something stupid I'm doing.

#

Noooooo. I did the stupid thing, guys. 😦 That yaml is correct. I was accidentally applying it to the label card and not on the button card itself. Whoops

Hi all, running hass.io on my synology through a VM image and it just did the latest update. Now I cant access it (http://homeassistant.local:8123/ & 192.168.1.2:8123) from my main computer (tried both Chrome and Edge, deleted all user data/cookies etc). All other Computers on my network are able to login to the front end at these adddresses, and the iOS also has no issues connecting to it.

#

Chrome is saying:

#

This site can’t be reached192.168.1.2 refused to connect.
Try:

Checking the connection
Checking the proxy and the firewall
ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED

pallid zinc Aug 6, 2020, 4:45 AM

#

my bad!!! the IP was incorrect, the VM actually had its own ip of 192.168.1.109 so I can get in that way. Still bizarre that homeassistant.local doesnt work anymore on this machine but oh well!

this is my button for exemple https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/G2BzhgjWcv/

tacit cave Aug 6, 2020, 2:54 PM

#

you're missing type

#

it may look like you have it, but your dash is below type. So type goes with whatever is above it

rustic lynx Aug 6, 2020, 2:56 PM

#

what ? the button its working i just need to change the entity to a script is that you are talking ?

tacit cave Aug 6, 2020, 2:59 PM

#

Well yes, but I don't see how that button works unless you just copied and pasted incorrectly.

#

type: button    <----- this is not included with your button.
      - entity: switch.sonoff_1000c8661c  <---- Dash here indicates Start of button.
        hold_action:
          action: more-info
        icon: 'mdi:lightbulb'
        show_icon: true
        show_name: true
        show_state: false    <----- Seemingly this is the end of your button.

but the button is working

#

but how i can add the script ?

tacit cave Aug 6, 2020, 3:02 PM

then you didn't copy the correct config

but how i can add the script ?
@rustic lynx just change the entity: to the script.xxxx

#

yes, but I need to see the script section.

rustic lynx Aug 6, 2020, 3:07 PM

#

oh

#

i found it

#

is script test

#

but why ?

tacit cave Aug 6, 2020, 3:08 PM

#

alright, because taht's the entity_id. The name you see in that other area is the friendly name.

#

friendly name is what's shown in the UI

#

the configuration requires the 'under the hood name', which is called the entity_id

rustic lynx Aug 6, 2020, 3:08 PM

#

yaa its working now sorry for that

tacit cave Aug 6, 2020, 3:09 PM

no problem, don't be sorry, you didn't know

#

why the buttons are locked i wish i could open or close at any time

tacit cave Aug 6, 2020, 3:12 PM

#

They are based on the state. If the door/cover is closed, the only open will be available. If the door/cover is open, only closed will be available.

rustic lynx Aug 6, 2020, 3:13 PM

#

yes but its possible to disable that ?

It's been a while since I had a garage door, but that's how the physical button would work.

#

tacit cave Aug 6, 2020, 3:33 PM

#

@rustic lynx what integration are you using to make these covers? Seems like there is a disconnect for the states. If it's partially open, the state should be open. Not closed

rustic lynx Aug 6, 2020, 3:36 PM

#

thats the problem my covers are not saying the state to home assistant...

tacit cave Aug 6, 2020, 3:40 PM

#

So how did you add the covers to home assistant?

rustic lynx Aug 6, 2020, 3:43 PM

#

so basically the tuya app is talking to home assistant and saying that they are switch and not covers

#

but i can create scripts in the tuya app and the show up in home assistant so i create a script to open close and stop

#

xd

#

then i add to home assistant like this

#

https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/C999nMgrth/

tacit cave Aug 6, 2020, 3:44 PM

#

ok, do the states of the switches properly reflect the open/close state of the cover?

rustic lynx Aug 6, 2020, 3:44 PM

#

mee nice question let me check

#

nop

#

and i just can open with the switch xd

tacit cave Aug 6, 2020, 3:50 PM

#

you can fake out your state by adding an input_boolean to your scene. Make the boolean on when stopped and open is pressed and off when closed it pressed. Then in your cover templates add the following (changing the entity_id to match your newly created input_boolean):

value_template: "{{ is_state('input_boolean.xxxx', 'on') }}"

This value_template should get added to all your cover templates. It should have the same spacing level as open_cover.

#

if the scene is passed from the tuya integration, you'll have to make scripts to turn on the boolean and script.

That's what's called secondary_info. Check the manual of the row you're using to see if it supports setting that manually.

If I were to guess, it does - but you need to do it in the same way as you did in that other place right below, where it does work that way...

@rustic lynx I'd wager that if you cleared the cache in your PC browser, that you'd have the same thing happen. Something is wrong with your config or your resources are improperly callled out

@trim flume nope

that's the point, if your using old info on your PC, when you load onto any NEW system it won't have the correct info. Try clearing the cache on your PC. I'd wager that you get the same RED card.

@tacit cave The weird thing is that the other stuff I'm positioning works flawlessly so far, just that one picture element doesn't for some reason even if I remove all scale stuff.

Yes, safari follows a 'old school' approach to CSS where things are implied. When searching for ways to make things fit properly, make sure to include the word safari in your searches.

Yeah that's been done. It appears abandoned.

karmic tiger Aug 7, 2020, 7:32 AM

#

The last commit was only 3 months ago and I don't see any issues newer than 22 days. It's a bit quick to call it abandoned.

#

It's probably a hobby project, so don't expect people to check in daily with updates.

#

And regarding having someone else fix it... it's open source. You're welcome to fix it yourself if you have the skills. If you don't, wait for someone else to find the motivation to fix it.

#

Otherwise, it comes across a bit like 'oi, you, go fix that'.

#

Raise an issue, give a thorough description of the problem and why you think it's happening. Maybe someone else sees your issue and decides they could fix it - in which case, they'll do a PR.

@karmic tiger if you look at the build log they never succeed in building the js bundle. And the 22 day old issue is the relevant one. I don't have the skill to fix it hence advertising the need here.

Hi all, I may be being stupid with this one....
I can't set a frontend theme via a service call (or automation)

  "progress")

Must say that after i developed the UI settings for my spotify card and there for switched to GUI config for lovelace i dont understand why people keep editing yaml files.
I am really impressed with the efforts put in to the fronted. Nice work!

How long does HA keep the history of an entity?

#

I can see about 24h in the graph, is there a way to retrieve more than that?

dark dirge Aug 7, 2020, 11:49 PM

#

It’s based on the recorder purge setting

#

You can use a history card or the mini-graph-card or probably others to define what you want to see

OK cool.

Me again, with some more sidebar/ dashboard questions!
Can I hide a dashboard and/ or sidebar entry from certain users? E.g. non-admin users can't see my Glances iframe panel or an admin dashboard?

Edit: found the answer! I should read the docs better... Both iframe_panel and dashboard have a require_admin variable. I'm still interested to know if there's a way to get more fine-grained with this though 🙂

Does it really require a custom to have a slider in the card?

for something like a input_number entity that has a mode of slider

Hello everyone. I just got my Xiaomi door/window sensors working with HA with the new Sonoff zigbee bridge and ZHA (thanks @digiblur ). Big BUT is, the icons i get are only a square or an empty square. Is there a way to tell HA the nature of the sensor so it applies the proper icon?... obviously, changing the entity´s icon does´t work because it won´t change to the proper state...

karmic tiger Aug 8, 2020, 9:35 AM

#

https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/configuration/customizing-devices/#device-class

normal mango Aug 8, 2020, 9:42 AM

#

thanks @karmic tiger , but working it through yaml renders the same result as changing it through de UI, a static icon.

#

When connect through zigbee2MQTT, the proper icons are assigned, so I´m guessing ZHA´s quirk has much to do with it

karmic tiger Aug 8, 2020, 9:46 AM

#

You're not trying to change the icons, you're trying to change the device class.

#

HA will pick appropriate icons for that device class.

normal mango Aug 8, 2020, 10:15 AM

#

@karmic tiger my mistake, you´re absolutely right!

how can i change the color of an icon?
@wind spire I have the same question.
Also, I'd like to know how the icons change colors. I see a lot of frontend UI that the icons change color automatically from blue to yellow (when the lights change from off to on, for example).
My lights' icons are blue all the time.

#

They are MQTT switches (Tasmota)

Can you show your yaml for the light ?

#

@main pasture sure my friend. give one min

mild veldt Aug 8, 2020, 4:20 PM

#

@twilit lintel check the docs for entities card, there is a config for state_color that is false by default

main pasture Aug 8, 2020, 4:22 PM

#

just checked, made a new entities card and put one of my tasmota lights ins there

#

it changed colors right away, without any change to it

#

type: entities
title: My Title
entities:

entity: light.vievkamer_kwallamp

#

the problem is most likely in the yaml

mild veldt Aug 8, 2020, 4:24 PM

#

yes, if they are in the light domain they will still change color

#

unless you explicitly set state_color to false

just set it to true

and it's now working!

Restart HA and try again. It sounds like some kind of caching error. You described that it was in the correct location - it's just that the browser can't get to it.

Same result. Restarted HA and restarted Host. Is there a need to add anything to configuration.yaml? And shouldn't there be a new card type when I try to add it cia Lovelace UI?

Just to make sure: I changed the resource path to the original one (created b HACS): /hacsfiles/light-entity-card/light-entity-card.js

Hey everyone... has anyone created/seen a light control card (I've got some lifx bulbs) which incorporates flux configuration (color temperature for different points in time)??? I'd like it if it could also control color/white temp and brightness... Ideally it would have a compact mode as well. I want to ditch my lifx app and just use home assistant.

#

This RGB Light Card (https://github.com/bokub/rgb-light-card) is close, but doesn't have the flux controls. Maybe it's just a combination of Lovelace configs that someone's seen done really well.

https://imgur.com/a/SX23PeI

errant plover Aug 9, 2020, 12:20 PM

#

Yeah there is an issue open for that.

#

https://github.com/home-assistant/frontend/issues/2061

nova atlas Aug 9, 2020, 12:28 PM

#

Hello everyone. I have a follow up question regarding history graphs: I have an input_number on my lovelace frontend and want to use this number to set the "hours_to_show" variable. That way I can quickly change the scale of my graph directly on the frontend. Simply using:

- type: history-graph entities: - entity: binary_sensor.kitchen_motion hours_to_show: input_number.scalenumber title: Kitchen Motion

doesn't work. Any ideas?

karmic tiger Aug 9, 2020, 12:30 PM

#

When you say it 'doesn't work', I assume you mean it says the value you're providing for hours_to_show is invalid. But I can only guess since you aren't sharing the error message...

#

Check the docs and you'll see it accepts an integer for that key (https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/history-graph/#hours_to_show). Unless explicitly stated, keys don't accept templates (i.e. you have to write the values by hand).

#

Using templates in cards is uncommon unless it's a custom card and even then it depends on what the developer allows templates for.

errant plover Aug 9, 2020, 12:32 PM

#

There's a working example here: https://community.home-assistant.io/t/dynamically-select-the-number-of-hours-or-sensors-to-show-on-a-history-graph-or-mini-graph-card/193510

karmic tiger Aug 9, 2020, 12:33 PM

#

custom:config-template-card My point exactly. It's a custom card.

#

Gotta do magic to get templates working 😄

nova atlas Aug 9, 2020, 12:33 PM

#

Oh sorry, it just says "No state history found"

#

Thanks for the feedback

karmic tiger Aug 9, 2020, 12:34 PM

#

If you replace input_number.scalenumber with a number, it should start working.

#

If that's the only problem, follow tom's suggestion.

nova atlas Aug 9, 2020, 12:34 PM

#

I assumed it was just my wrong syntax, but seems that it is a bit more complex than that.

#

Yes, I initially used a "hard coded" number and it worked fine. Only stopped once I introduced the input_number variable

#

Okay, so does that mean I will also not be able to have a "dynamic" card title for a typical entities card? (Was thinking of using a template sensor's value as the card name)
edit: nevermind, I see that the custom:config-template-card will sort this out too

karmic tiger Aug 9, 2020, 12:39 PM

#

That template card 'wraps' it with something that can understand templates and inserts them in a way the wrapped card can understand.

#

Important note: it appears that any templates you use in the wrapped card have to use JavaScript, not Jinja.

nova atlas Aug 9, 2020, 12:41 PM

#

Cool. Thanks for the warning. Let me give it a try

errant plover Aug 9, 2020, 12:44 PM

#

There is a jinja template card too.

karmic tiger Aug 9, 2020, 12:45 PM

#

Doesn't that make it heavier? Your browser already understands JS, which I presume is why custom cards use it so frequently.

#

Better than bundling something else with the custom card code.

errant plover Aug 9, 2020, 12:46 PM

#

Apparently so. I was just looking for the warning 123 Taras gave me about using it.

#

It was Ian not 123: https://community.home-assistant.io/t/conditional-card-template-and-sensor-lacks-state/210395/6?u=tom_l

karmic tiger Aug 9, 2020, 12:51 PM

#

Yeah. Another reason to stick with JS 😄

#

At least I can understand JS syntax. I always struggle with Jinja.

nova atlas Aug 9, 2020, 1:05 PM

#

~~I'm sorry, I was hoping to come back with a "That works, thanks a lot!", but I'm having issues for some reason.
After installing the custom card through HACS, adding

url: /local/config-template-card.js
type: module
to my resources, and restarting HA, my Lovelace gives an error for this card, saying that it does not exist: "No card type defined
type: 'custom:config-template-card'"

Is this because of the Taras vs JS conversation above?~~

#

Restarting HA again sorted me out. Thanks for the direction

Hi all. I need some help displaying a timestamp in my timezone please. The last_triggered attribute is recorded in UTC, but I am in UTC+2. Is it a formatting thing to adjust what is displayed, or do I need to create a new template sensor to show the time in my zone?
I'm currently using this timestamp-device template sensor: value_template: "{{states.automation.notify_when_gate_is_opened.attributes.last_triggered.strftime('%H:%M %z') }}"
On Lovelace this displays as "10:58 +0000". How do I make it display 12:58?

karmic tiger Aug 10, 2020, 11:46 AM

#

Is your HA set to +0200?

nova atlas Aug 10, 2020, 12:08 PM

#

I believe so. The only place I've found where it can be set is with the basic UI: configuration/general

#

Please tell me there is another place where I should set it!

#

The following sensors all show the correct time for my zone:
sensor.date_time
.date_time_ISO
.time
.time_date

Hi, using conditional card and noticed that when used for a single row there is a lot of space between one row and the next one. Is that known or am I missing something ?

tacit cave Aug 10, 2020, 1:52 PM

#

@nova atlas ```
{{as_timestamp(states.automation.notify_when_gate_is_opened.attributes.last_triggered) | timestamp_custom('%H:%M %z') }}

#

@novel finch you're conditionally displaying a full card in the single row

novel finch Aug 10, 2020, 1:53 PM

#

yeah, that's true and a emtpy card is still as narrow as a empty row ?

tacit cave Aug 10, 2020, 1:54 PM

#

an empty card is 4 pixels high

nova atlas Aug 10, 2020, 1:55 PM

#

Thanks so much @tacit cave. That works perfectly. Your number format is still the same as mine ('%H:%M %z'), so which part of your solution gives HA the instruction to display in my timezone and not in UST?

tacit cave Aug 10, 2020, 1:56 PM

#

.strftime is the built in python object. It's in unix time. the timestamp_custom filter properly knows the timezone

plain pike Aug 10, 2020, 1:56 PM

#

timestamp_custom I bet

#

I wouldve won that bet

#

😄

novel finch Aug 10, 2020, 2:22 PM

#

Yes, it should. It needs to leverage https://github.com/home-assistant/frontend/blob/dev/src/common/datetime/relative_time.ts
@tacit cave some days ago you told me that relative_time is only English. But the .ts file you linked seems to have a call to localize()

tacit cave Aug 10, 2020, 2:53 PM

#

it may be langauged now. Things change. It hasn't had translations for a long time but there has been a translation push in the last 3 or so months

#

So, you could always just try it out in the template editor, it'll tell you immediately.

Hello - I wonder if someone could point me in the right direction... I'm following these instructions: https://github.com/gurbyz/power-wheel-card#configuration-instructions
I'm using the lovelace GUI so I don't have the ui-lovelace.yaml ( and I really don't want to move to the yaml as the GUI works great!)
When I create a new card in lovelace manually it says "No card type found" even though I've copied the file locally and restarted the service. Can I add the config via the GUI manual card or not?

elder pendant Aug 10, 2020, 3:24 PM

#

you can't add an entire view in the manual card editor

#

also that's not a valid config for that card

#

grid_power_consumption_sensor.lux_sensor_2 this line got messed up somewhere along the way

rough plover Aug 10, 2020, 3:28 PM

#

ah yes it should be grid_power_consumption: sensor.lux_sensor_2

elder pendant Aug 10, 2020, 3:29 PM

#

now try adding just the card config as a card

rough plover Aug 10, 2020, 3:30 PM

#

No card type found still :/

elder pendant Aug 10, 2020, 3:30 PM

#

do you still have the - in the beginning?

yup

As below - correct?

elder pendant Aug 10, 2020, 3:31 PM

... no

#

like I said, you can't add an entire view as a card

#

type: 'custom:power-wheel-card'
title: Power wheel
solar_power_entity: sensor.sensor.lux_sensor_1
grid_power_consumption_entity: sensor.lux_sensor_2
grid_power_production_entity: sensor.lux_sensor_3

#

sensor.sensor.lux_sensor_1 is obviously not valid, but you'll have to figure out your entity_ids

rough plover Aug 10, 2020, 3:37 PM

#

@elder pendant Thanks I understand that now, ok so I still get "Error: Custom element not found: power-wheel-card"

#

I might just roll back and install it via HACS and see if that works and report back in a few

elder pendant Aug 10, 2020, 3:39 PM

#

if you're still getting that error then you haven't properly downloaded the file/added the resource

#

you should be able to go to http://<your-ip-and-port>/local/power-wheel-card.js?v=1 and see the card source

rough plover Aug 10, 2020, 3:51 PM

#

Removed it all - copied the file back and it's works! 100% my fault! I used winscp the first time did it over ssh and it worked fine. Sorry about that.

What I mean is that you are right because it shows only in English, even if there is a call to localize in the file you mentioned. If you agree, I may fill a issue

knotty vine Aug 11, 2020, 3:24 AM

Hi there! I've got a value_template that works fine in the template tool, but as soon as I put it in an Entity card, it breaks. I'm trying to put a line break between two attributes on one sensor to help consolidate vertical space.

#

`

#

{{ states.sensor.tcm.attributes["name"] }}{{" \n"}}({{ states.sensor.tcm.attributes["releaseYear"] }})

dark dirge Aug 11, 2020, 3:27 AM

#

Many cards don’t support line breaks, but you may just need to do ‘\n\n’

knotty vine Aug 11, 2020, 3:27 AM

#

Ahhh! Escape character. Let me try that!

dark dirge Aug 11, 2020, 3:29 AM

#

This was my similar post from a year and a half ago: https://community.home-assistant.io/t/multi-line-entity-names/105984

#

The entity card is pretty basic. You may want to look into the custom button card for considerably more flexibility

knotty vine Aug 11, 2020, 3:31 AM

#

That's a great suggestion. I like it for the names, though. I'll use the hell out of that!

dark dirge Aug 11, 2020, 3:31 AM

#

You can do anything in there. It’s crazy

plain pike Aug 11, 2020, 3:31 AM

#

no, I'm crazy

dark dirge Aug 11, 2020, 3:32 AM

#

You might be able to make your whole UI in a custom button card

knotty vine Aug 11, 2020, 3:33 AM

#

It might be too late and too much rum to learn custom button cards.

#

But I appreciate the direction.

@dark dirge I've heard rumors of this actually

cerulean pulsar Aug 11, 2020, 4:41 AM

#

Ok, you wouldn't think this would be a stumper, but.. I want to build a set of custom button cards that work like radio buttons for light brightness (off, 25%, 50% etc). For whatever reason, I can very easily make a custom button act like a toggle, but I can't seem to make either action: call-service work with service: light.turn_on or service: scene.apply .. yaml follows:

type: 'custom:button-card'
icon: 'mdi:lightbulb'
tap_action: call-service
service: scene.apply
service_data:
  entities:
    light.bedside_liz:
      state: 'on'
      brightness: 128
name: '50%'

dark dirge Aug 11, 2020, 4:56 AM

#

Your indentation is wrong

#

Everything under tap_action should be indented

dark dirge Aug 11, 2020, 5:16 AM

#

@cerulean pulsar

cerulean pulsar Aug 11, 2020, 5:17 AM

#

Thanks, RobC, that sorted it. It actually needed to be tap_action: and then on an indented newline: action: call-service and so forth

#

but yeah, got it, thank you!

dark dirge Aug 11, 2020, 5:24 AM

#

Oh, yeah. That too 🙂

@prime meadow You create a template sensor with an icon template.

errant plover Aug 11, 2020, 9:23 AM

#

@heavy mango all of them (that I use). But if you want a specific one that is simple to set up try: https://github.com/kalkih/mini-media-player I think the minimum config is just type: and entity.

heavy mango Aug 11, 2020, 10:04 AM

#

Thank you 🙂 Just need something to get me going.

compact nexus Aug 11, 2020, 10:43 AM

#

@heavy mango check out https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-hui-element. since the update this has worked perfectly for all my custom cards and popups.

#

thomasloven has a bunch of great frontend stuff

errant plover Aug 11, 2020, 10:46 AM

#

That's only required if you are using the custom cards as row elements in another card.

heavy mango Aug 11, 2020, 10:46 AM

#

@compact nexus Thank you 🙂 I got the mini-media-player working, so now i know (roughly) how to include all files and set it up. I'm a learn by trying, not a good reader unfortunately.

Is there a solution (yet?) to casting custom cards in Lovelace? Is this still a general issue or is it specific to my setup?

polar kelp Aug 11, 2020, 2:39 PM

It used to work

mint geode Aug 11, 2020, 2:41 PM

Yes I remember there was an issue in github, it all started with the lazy loading of resources if I remember correctly. Currently I can’t display any custom card on any google cast device. So ist this intentional?

prime meadow Aug 11, 2020, 2:42 PM

@prime meadow You create a template sensor with an icon template.
@errant plover i can't do it. Even if i create a template sensor with just one value, sensor don't show icon on badge :/ i think it isn't implemented

Check the configuration / dashboards / resources menu. HACS is supposed to add a resource for the card but sometimes you have to do it manually.

Shift+F5 is the one that skips the cache, btw.

Ctrl+F5 reloads the cache as well, so does Ctrl+Shit+R.
