Hi guys, lovelace/yaml idiot here. Trying to get a badge to only show if the person entity is home, but for others to be shown regardless of whether they're home or away. Here's my code, I know that it's wrong and doesn't work, but I've done some reading and can't figure it out based on the documentation! ```badges:
I know it's not working, because I set the state filter to Away and it doesn't show either
mild veldt
@modest coral try lowercase, "home"
modest coral
That hasn't worked. I set the filter to 'away' (since the person is currently not here), and it still isn't showing alongside my other badges
prime umbra
the theme default from HA in dark mode in section os HACS is all white screen sense 0.118 anyone with same problem?
echo notch
@modest coral I think away is really "not_home" in YAML
modest coral
Simple as that! Looks like the previous code would have worked then, just my way of testing it was incorrect. Cheers all!

Is there a way to create a card that will show list of options from an input select list on single click/tap? I have created entity card with the input list, but clicking it opens another window with more_info, and then I have to click a second time to get to the actual list.

I've got a couple light groups defined, but after restarting HA they show up as "unavailable" until one of the lights in the group has changed state.
Is there a way to get these to show their correct state after a restart without toggling lights all over the house?

I figured out that the issue was related to the "active color" set by my theme. However, when I go to my profile, I see that I have 2 colors set, and the theme is set to Backend-selected. My configuration.yaml has the frontend: line, and it has themes: !include_dir_merge_named ./themes under that section. In the ./themes folder, I do have a file named google_dark_theme.yaml, and it has what I would think is my theme...
However, I can't seem to find any state-icon-active, or related colors/settings... Can anyone confirm that if it's set to Backend-selected, it's using that line/setting from my configuration.yaml? And if so, do I have to add a specific line setting the --state-icon-active-color: to whatever I want color I want the Active/On/Connected devices to show up as?
EDIT: I stated that completely wrong after looking in so many places. I 100% see a state-icon-active-color: setting, however, it does not match what is getting set on my server. It's showing up as yellow, when the color that is set on that google_dark_theme.yaml file is #5F9BEA, which is blue.
HOWEVER, there is NO state-icon-active-color: setting in my /config/themes.yaml, which makes me think that's what it's using for the front end? Can anyone confirm that though?
The reason I think it's using that, is because I think it's showing as the default color, which according to HA docs, is at https://github.com/home-assistant/frontend/blob/master/src/resources/ha-style.ts, and there it shows at the color matching #FDD835, which is what shows if I use inspector to see the color code for that icon. Just wanted to make sure I'm on the right track to fixing this, I guess.
Ok, in case anyone runs into this, I think I figured out what is happening.
Backend-selected == Use whatever matches the setting that is the configuration yaml, to offer as themes. Then, I didn't have google-dark set, but it's offered, so it ended up using the defaults, and my primary colors set from the user menu (I THINK, still not 100% sure, but changing either of those themes right now has no effect. Which is why I think this theory.)

I've logged a few issues in the past, I just logged an issue (my other ones have been closed or resolved, I thought I logged this but I hadn't talked about the pickers only entity lists) where it was insanely slow and causing memory consumption. Has anyone else ran into this? It makes the front end almost unusable for me in scenarios where I need to use the entity picker.

Either way, it's not Lovelace. It's either ESPHome or #integrations-archived

Hi everyone! New member here and I’m trying to plan my Lovelace dashboard for a Amazon Fire 10 tablet but I have no idea where to start in terms of designing it. For mobile I just created a single vertical card and it’s super simple, but I’m just creative enough to come up with something functional and clean looking for the tablet it seems. I’ve Googled, searched the HA site and Reddit for inspiration, (along with this discord but 1k+ pages of results come up [not surprised]) so just wondering if anyone wants to share a pic of their Lovelace setup?
karmic tiger
If you just want to see a showcase of ideas, the forums are by far the best place to look.
Also, depending on what you're looking for in a mobile experience, sticking stuff in horizontal stacks is a nice way to make better use of space 🙂

The automatically added MQTT thermostat came from values sent via MQTT from your ESPHome.
And please don't tag me again. I'm not interested in helping someone that doesn't listen.

Hi all, does anyone know how to change the button colors on the generic thermostat card? The 'on' colors are hard coded in the .ts file and not themable. I have card-mod and have been hacking at that for several hours, far out of proportion with the value of changing the button color, I know...There is a key --fan_only-color that I can manually change in the element explorer in Chrome and it works as you'd expect. I just can't find the magic combination to make card-mod do it - I'm really at the point of changing random things by now and somehow hoping it works. Thanks in advance.

Hello, first post and first time on a Discord chat 😀 I have an issue with my Has production environment. I just installed two new cards from HACS (mini-media player and fold entity). When trying to use these card in Lovelace I get "Custom element doesn't exist". On my test environment, same actions and works fine. The only difference I see is the version; my production version has the latest updates, my test version has version 0.118.2. I checked the dashboard entries and those seem the same to me. Any idea how I can further debug?
karmic tiger
If it's saying it doesn't exist, it either isn't installed or hasn't been added to the Lovelace resources.
vapid field
hello mono, the files are present and it has been added in the resources in the config. Exactly the same as on my test instance
karmic tiger
And have you restarted HA since adding it?
vapid field
yes, multiple times.
karmic tiger
Clear your browser's cache for that page. Ctrl+F5 should do it.
vapid field
bye the way, other custom cards always worked in past
ok Ctrl+F5 worked for the mini media player
karmic tiger
So it's just a caching thing. Not sure why the other one isn't coming through, maybe there's caching at the HA end too. I don't know how to deal with that.
vapid field
other one shows up too now, first time I have this issue. In the past the prompt "clear cache" after the install always worked. Not sure why it didn't now
thank you and sorry for the trivial question.

Sidebar question-I'm running HA, NodeRed, TasmoAdmin and MQTT as separate Docker containers on my Unraid Server. I'd like to add sidebar entries to link to my NR and TA WebUIs, much like Hassio. I see how to rearrange and delete sidebar entries but not add. Is this possible?

Where a light group is shown as unavailable until one of the individual lights is activated
I have the issue, but it's only the nested light groups which are affected, as in the parent groups

Hi everyone! I'm getting a 404 error on the frontend, on a recently updated venv install. I've got 0.118.4, and home-assistant-frontend 20201126.0. My config is simply default_config:

Googling suggested missing packages or themes, but I have nothing of the sort
So I'm a bit lost, and wondering how to debug this 🙂
I'd rather keep my .storage directory so I don't have to set up homekit again

Remove that from your configuration.yaml

Remove that from your configuration.yaml
Trying that now... Whew that was crazy
tame dove
@lethal flicker , here is an example,from my config
lovelace:
resources:
- url: /local/vertical-stack-in-card.js
type: js
So, that should work for you. Substitute your card though
lethal flicker
So if im not configuring in Yaml where does one put the resources thingy? Still in config.yaml?
tame dove
And make sure you put the card in the www folder
lethal flicker
Ohhhhh yup! didnt know that part
tame dove
I removed the line that was causing you problems. Sorry, my bad
lethal flicker
its all good. Testing that now
tame dove
Not sure what card you are using but you did put it in www folder correct
lethal flicker

Im trying to get my harmony hub situated.
tame dove
Use backticks
tame dove
Look at the example
tame dove
But you need to download the card and store it locally in the www folder
Congrats of formatting code
lethal flicker
Oh damn you are really showing me quite a bit here. Thanks so much. So i just put that url in the www code correct. My apologies new and working my way around HA trial and error style
tame dove
Its all good, we all started somewhere. I am guessing it is on github somewhere. You need to learn how to download it from github. I usually just copy the code and make my own file. Your www folder is in your config folder. Where your config folder is depends on your install method
lethal flicker
Its all good, we all started somewhere. I am guessing it is on github somewhere....
So weirdly enough I went into the WWW folder and it was there.
SUPER long code though No idea what i do with that info
tame dove
Ok, so just change your url in config.yaml to see the file in your www folder. The www folder is referenced with /local
Look at my code
👆
Starts with /local/the card name
lethal flicker
Ok standby let me try that
homeassistant:
unit_system: imperial
time_zone: America/New_York
resources:
- type: module
url: '/community_plugin/harmony-card/harmony-card.js'
/local/harmony-card/harmony-card.js
@tame dove does this look correct? This is the top half of my config.yaml
tame dove
What do you think 🤣
tame dove
homeassistant:
unit_system: imperial
time_zone: America/New_York
resources:
- type: js
url: '/local/harmony-card.js`
That’s if the card is directly in the www folder
tame dove
Not sure where you got type: module. Honestly, the frontend is not my thing. Just winging here
lethal flicker
url: '/config/www/community/harmony-card/harmony-card.js'
The module part is what the github had
no idea if it needs to be there in reality
tame dove
url: '/local/community/harmony-card/harmony-card.js'
Local starts at the www folder
Make sense
lethal flicker
ok
will make those changes
Ugh still getting resources not found when I check my config.
Tinkering around a bit maybe im missing something here
tame dove
Is that card in that path?
lethal flicker
It is. Which is weird
Im gonna tryin putting the entire path and see if that makes a difference
tame dove
So, in the www folder you have a folder named community in which you have a folder named harmony-card in which you have a file named harmony-card.js?
lethal flicker
that is correct
lethal flicker
And are you using hacs?
Sooooo I tried adding the URL to Hacs and they were like "It already exist" but i couldnt figure out where it was. Then you mentioned the www folder. And it was in there
So I would say yes, it was added using Hacs
tame dove
Ok, well now we are way out of my comfort zone. I don’t use hacs and I use a couple lovelace cards but not my expertise. What docs were you following?
lethal flicker
alright sooooo yah im noobing out here. I was putting it in the wrong place

hi, I was wondering if a setup similar to this is possible. I'm looking to create a HA dashboard with 2 pages:
any advice on how to achieve either?
calendar card should work, just need to figure out how to connect it to google calendar
what about the second page?
karmic tiger
You need to sort your integrations out before you can display the results from those integrations.
raw egret
yeah I'm in the process of adding the google calendar integration, but I can't find much about page 2
casting to HA doesn't seem to be a thing and I can see why
I would be okay with playing local videos
karmic tiger
Why would you cast to HA? What are you trying to display?
raw egret
yeah I know, it's not something really meant for HA
basically there's a big screen my friend wants to use as a smart screen
and would like to play videos on it
I guess we could always plug in a chromecast as well
karmic tiger
So... sometimes a smart screen, sometimes a console? Sounds like a job for multiple HDMI inputs on a TV 🤷♂️
You don't want to 'cast' to HA. The latency will be awful.
But... that's an #integrations-archived discussion. Ask over there if you still want to try.
raw egret
it would just be playing video on repeat
I'll focus on the google calendar cards first then come back for the video or propose a chromecast
thank you

well thats part of it, i wanted to know what other cards are good out there that i may be not be thinking of

Well what do you want to do? Start by asking a specific question and I'm sure people will have suggestions.

i wanted to see what other people thought was helpful and useful at first.
i.e. weather on first card, camera on second, the mail and integration add on, etc.

Let me rephrase that; columns is an advanced config option and is not in the UI editor and will not be in the UI editor.
The warning for the key columns was a bug and has been resolved in 0.118.4

But I saw in a post that it had changed to using /local/ instead
jaunty frost
I tried using /local/www/card-mod.js also (copied the file there aswell)

/local corresponds to /config/www, but you're referring to card-mod above and not slider-entity-row. Is that on purpose?
jaunty frost
oh i guess i focused so much on doing it right i downloaded the wrong thing xD
thanks so much. im actually installing hacs also now
dark dirge
that would be easier, but you often still need to manually add the resources. Those will be referred to as /hacsfiles/...
jaunty frost
so in /config/ i make a dir called hacsfiles?
dark dirge
it corresponds to /config/www/community, and will be created automatically

you probably need to install a card first

oh wow thats great
As someone who is very new, i see alot of guides but they have so many gaps just assuming I would know something

ok cool il check it out should make more sense now that i know the very basics

it'll tell you that

it's a custom component, you need to manually add it to HA or use HACS which is perfect for this purpose
then you can manually add the card with e.g. the example given in the github repo
take your time to read up the HACS installation once and you will have fun with custom cards in no time!

So, this is most likely a "many many different ways" to accomplish sort of thing. But, could I get some suggestions for a "tiny" way to display entities? Basically, I use the picture glance card. And under it I would like to display "the usual stuff" (temp/hum/and a few other things). AVertical stack with the picture glance, and a horizontal stack under it works. But the entities gets unnessesarily large. I'd like something along the same size as used in badges.

Did something change with markdown cards recently? The below code used to make the temperature bold, but now it just shows the asterisks instead:
The high is **{{ states('sensor.dark_sky_daytime_high_temperature_0d') | round(0) }}°**

Hi All, I'm trying to display the windspeed on lovelace. I use the accuweather integration and one of the states is windspeed. how do I display this in a glance card?
karmic tiger
'one of the states'. I think you mean attributes.
So if you want to display something that only accepts states, you'll have to make a template sensor first. See #integrations-archived if you need help with that bit.
plush tulip
gotcha, so I make a template sensor for the attribute, and then the "new" sensor is just like every other sensor and can be used in lovelace?

PSA: a while back I asked in here about my "Add card" in lovelace loading very slowly, basically causing the whole window to hang. Someone suggested it could be some entity misbehaving, so I investigated and found the cause of this: I have a few "time" sensors defined, and by default, these write to the recorder, every single second (possibly more often, even), creating a rather hefty time series. This is what caused the slow load, as the "Add card" was trying to render previews. Oddly I didn't notice any other HA feature having problems with it. But the solution is to add these entities to an exclude: tag in the recorder: section in configuration.yaml. If you don't feel like cleaning the recorder database, this may take 24h to apply as it will still try to load the existing history, but of course you can dive in and remove data manually if you don't have the patience. After doing this, my "Add card" is perfectly zippy again.
elfin wigeon
Is it possible to render a dashboard or even a single card through the commandline as a jpg?
vapid field
@elfin wigeon I don't know the answer to that, but if there's no internal method, it might be possible through something Selenium-based.
There's also Chrome headless, apparently: https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2017/04/headless-chrome
elfin wigeon
Awesome headless looks like the answer, thanks! I was tinkering with wget and not getting anywhere

Yeah, back in the day that worked fine for a lot of things, but in the age of javascript, not so much.

Yes, there are some fixes in 0.119 for that
vapid field
@mild veldt awesome. In the add card renderer or in the time_date entity? As it's almost always pointless to have that record.
mild veldt
I saw it discussed but didn't do a deep dive into the solution. I believe it was related to loading history mostly
for the history card, and logbook cards
vapid field
I have a hunch it's an SD card killer for rpi as well.
Pretty much nothing else seemed to be bothered by it, not even the history tab, but any speedups in the loader will likely improve "legitimate" heavy-logging entities as well, so definitely a welcome improvement either way.
I.e. I don't plan on re-enabling time_date recording even if it loads quickly 🙂
hi there

If you're writing to the SD card every second that is most certainly going to kill it

Hey guys 🙂 I don't know exactly where to ask this, so tell me if this is the wrong channel.
I got my first real problem with home assistant ever. My supervisor stopped working (at least the frontend part of it. I don't know where exactly the supervisor is involved).
I restarted the ha os from proxmox but it's still not working. It seems like no addon is working. I click it, the sidebar stays and the content screen goes white. That's it. No errors in logs of home assistant.
Does anybody have a hint on how to fix that or see where the error might be?

Well frontend certainly isn't the right place.

This dashboard is currently being maintained by Home Assistant. It is automatically updated when new entities or Lovelace UI components become available. If you take control, this dashboard will no longer be automatically updated. You can always create a new dashboard in configuration to play around with.

i'm not very artistic i'm afraid i won't be able to do this.

I have some squeezebox devices, and I'm setting up cards to control them. If I put (for instance) media_player.kitchen_squeezebox in a Button card, I can toggle it on and off. If instead I put it in an Entities card, I can toggle it on, but it won't toggle off. Am I missing some subtle difference in those cards?
Hm. When I turn it on and it isn't playing anything, its state is idle.
If it's playing something, I can toggle it off from the Entities card. If it's idle, I can't.

This could be a use case for q-card... https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-q-card That lets you have the same card on multiple views.

You need to take control of your lovelace config
the hidden attribute is from a very old frontend system. It doesn't do much anymore. It will be removed

In Lovelace I would like to use the Webpage Card which should display a different website depending on bright/darkmode of the UI. I was thinking about using a Conditional Card for this purpose but where do I get the information if the darkmode is active or not?

wheat current
yeah
You are not using YAML mode, so what you do there, will not have any effect
a) Use YAML mode
b) Add resources in the UI (Configuration -> Lovelace Dashboards -> Resources)
true spruce
In a) you suggest I use Lovelace click on "add card" -> manual and enter the yaml?
b) can't find this point in the UI, I only see my lovelace dashboards but no button to ressources
wheat current
you suggest I use Lovelace click on "add card" -> manual and enter the yaml?
No, and based on that you should not try YAML mode 🙂
b) can't find this point in the UI, I only see my lovelace dashboards but no button to ressources
Go to your profile and enable "Advanced mode"
true spruce
I tried b) but still not working. But at least I'm beginning to unterstand the concept
I add it as a ressource with the url /local/xiaomi-vacuum-card.js?v=4.1.0 as JavaScript Module. I don't need the full url with the ip etc.?
Afterwards I click on "add card" (can't find the new one in the overview) and add it in manual mode? There's still the same error message
Edit: copied the "- type: " from github and had to remove the - . Now it works, thanks for the awesome help!

faint vortex
iirc when playing around with that feature I did find a way to set the specific column number if I'm not mistaken, let me check
could you possibly draw in paint what you mean so I can understand it better?
It's definitely possible, you just need some combination of vertical and horizontal stacks
you might need a few horizontal stacks in a few vertical stacks in a horizontal stack and you might have to couple them by 2 to keep it 2 columns
I might just be misunderstanding you and it might be much simpler
sly marsh
could you possibly draw in paint what you mean so I can understand it better?
Sure! (How do I post images here again?)
sly marsh
Ah, here we go. Let's say that I want the green block to take up the space in the red dashed square.
faint vortex
ah yeah just make a horizontal stack and add vertical stacks in it, only add 2 cards per vertical stack
it should give you what you need

Gonna try that, thanks!

compact flame
Hey guys... I declared some switches as lights as described in here: https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/light.switch/
how can i make the appear on the frontend?
polar kelp
If you never clicked Edit Dashboard they should show up with a page refresh.
Assuming you can find them in /developer-tools/state
compact flame
they still show up as switches.. any way i can not make em show up as switches?

polar kelp
Oh, you'll probably get both the switch and the light with that.
compact flame
yeah, they show up
but they dont show up in the new blueprint feature as selectable lights.
compact flame
ok 😄 but if they show up in the /developer tools at least that part is functioning
*working
is there a way i can "remove" the switch entity so that it doesnt show up in the auto generated lovelace UI?
the lights now show up btw.. but no in the rooms theyre assigned to but under light
karmic tiger
Disabling an entity probably hides it but I don't know if that'll also break your light.switch entity.
You'll probably want to make your own dash soon enough anyway. The auto-generated one gets rather messy when you have enough stuff in HA.
I see the auto-generated one as a basic demo rather than as something to be used forever. We all have different needs and different ideas of how a dash should look.
polar kelp
I keep a second dashboard around which is auto generated for the odd time I want to access some entity directly.
Though the quick select menu pretty much covers that need nowadays...
karmic tiger
Yeah, I've still got the old dash for the same reason. It's just not my default anymore.
3 dashes in total. My primary one, with everything the way I like it. A test one, where I can screw around without worrying that I've messed up the primary. And the generated one for the overview 🙂
polar kelp

Easier to add it via the Lovelace resources UI.

elder pendant
That doesn't help your local browser cache
karmic tiger
Clear your browser cache. Ctrl+F5.
First step whenever anything browser-related isn't working the way you think it should 🙂
bitter bolt
i thought ctrl+F5 just updates stylesheets, doesn't clear browser cache?
karmic tiger
It loads all requested resources directly from the server instead of using anything cached.
bitter bolt
oh
karmic tiger
It won't clear out cookies/localstorage/etc... which is a good thing, since that's overkill.
prime summit
still getting red box saying custom:doorvivint-card doesn't exist
elder pendant
Then you probably didn't add the resource correctly
prime summit
the instructions on the site said put in /config/www/blahblah/ and then reference as /local/blahblah
but even if I do /config/www/blahblah as the url it doesn't work
prime summit
can I not reference locally stored files?
prime summit
do I need to restart the HA server when resources are updated? I changed them to be the github file URLs instead
but it's still saying it doesn't exist
even with ctrl+f5
elder pendant
No. You only need to restart once when you first create the www directory
You probably aren't using the correct url still
prime summit
are the files in the www dir served at the root of my HA url?
karmic tiger
They're served at /local
elder pendant
http://<your-ha-address>/local
karmic tiger
So /config/www/file1.bmp would be accessible at /local/file1.bmp

What's the full path to the file, as seen in your config folder?
elder pendant
@compact flame you mean a title? https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/vertical-stack/#title

Easiest way to add a Header to a Vertical Grid?
I use a Markdown card for that
Or used... I dropped the headers now 😄

/config/www/custom-lovelace/doorvivint-card/doorvivint-card.js

And what URL were you trying to use?
prime summit
so I did /local/custom-lovelace/doorvivint-card/doorvivint-card.js
but says my custom element doesn't exist still
karmic tiger
With a Ctrl+F5 at that point before you changed things around?

Try navigating to the file in your browser. Go to http://<your-ha-address>/local/custom-lovelace/doorvivint-card/doorvivint-card.js
elder pendant
Is this the card you're trying to install https://github.com/tommyjlong/doorvivint-card?
It requires two resources
prime summit
yea, I have them both
elder pendant
And both are properly referenced?
prime summit
yup
I can even do a docker exec home-assistant curl <url> and it prints out the .js file
so the HA server should have no problem accessing it.....
karmic tiger
Smells like caching somewhere. Worth adding a version number to the end of the resource?
/doorvivant-card.js?v=1
Your browser will think it's a new resource and go looking for it.
prime summit
Custom element doesn't exist: doorvivint-card. still
elder pendant
Any errors in the browser console?
