F5 is a normal refresh. Ctrl+F5 skips the browser's cache and forces it to look for all referenced assets.

#

And since you don't know that, I'm gonna ask you to go do that 😉

#

Different keys on macOS... I believe it's something like Cmd+Shift+R

#

Cmd+R for the regular one, add the Shift to skip the cache.

polar kelp Jan 16, 2021, 9:17 PM

#

I think it's something crazy like cmd+shift+e in safari.

#

Let me check

#

Man... the "fastest browser in the world" takes forever to boot.

vestal yew Jan 16, 2021, 9:18 PM

Cmd+R usually fixes issues for me. Cmd+shift+R is a special reader mode

polar kelp Jan 16, 2021, 9:18 PM

#

Cmd+option+R seems to be it

karmic tiger Jan 16, 2021, 9:18 PM

#

Why does Apple always have to be different? 🤦‍♂️

polar kelp Jan 16, 2021, 9:19 PM

#

I was thinking of Cmd+option+E, which clears cache.

karmic tiger Jan 16, 2021, 9:19 PM

#

Close enough. It'll help 😄

polar kelp Jan 16, 2021, 9:19 PM

#

(option, by the way is the name of the key that clearly says "alt"... because apple)

karmic tiger Jan 16, 2021, 9:19 PM

#

Mine says 'option' 🤷‍♂️ 😄

#

Fn, Ctrl, Option, Cmd.

vestal yew Jan 16, 2021, 9:21 PM

cmd-opt-R does a reload. It didn't fix the problem. Thanks for looking it up. I usually use Chrome for development testing where it's cmd-shift-R.

Speaking of Chrome... do the cards work over there? That would be another clue as to whether it's the cache or your setup that's wrong.

That's great. It's loaded in, and you likely have a configuration problem.

vestal yew Jan 16, 2021, 9:37 PM

#

Config problem? With the install of the card or actually setting it up an instance using the manual option?

polar kelp Jan 16, 2021, 9:38 PM

#

What did you set entities: to?

vestal yew Jan 16, 2021, 9:46 PM

#

I used an example from the repository for the card entities: then on the next line - sensor.bedroom_battery, which is one of my sensors. It now shows a graph and also gives the error UI editor is not supported for this config - undefined is not an object (evaluating 'this_configElement.setConfig')

entities:

sensor.bedroom_battery

polar kelp Jan 16, 2021, 9:55 PM

#

That's odd... the only reason I can see that would give the error you posted before is if entities: is undefined...

vestal yew Jan 16, 2021, 9:57 PM

#

The save button was active so I clicked it and the card appears.

polar kelp Jan 16, 2021, 9:59 PM

#

Ok then.

vestal yew Jan 16, 2021, 10:01 PM

#

Maybe the manual card ui is expecting a different format even though it's valid yaml. As long as I can set up the card, I'm happy.

polar kelp Jan 16, 2021, 10:01 PM

#

No, it's correct. I think I know what may have happened, but not quite why, and it's something for the frontend team to consider.

hey guys, quick question about naming entities... its getting a bit crowded, so I started to prefix everything with the area they appear in: Kitchen Panel Light, Kitchen Speaker, and so on - this doesn`t look very good in overview cards ofc - but helps with identifing pretty clearly what light or window it is... how do you handle that or is there a best practice to follow, because Im not totally happy with the current setup! 😆

polar kelp Jan 16, 2021, 10:25 PM

#

If you design your frontend manually, you can change the display name of everything.

twin quiver Jan 16, 2021, 10:26 PM

#

polar kelp If you design your frontend manually, you can change the display name of everyth...

its not a question on how to do it - as i already renamed everything - its a question about, how do you handle many entities, areas and keeping track of everything

polar kelp Jan 16, 2021, 10:27 PM

#

I mean you can e.g. do this for a kitchen overview card: ```yaml
type: entities
entities:

entity: light.kitchen_ceiling
name: Ceiling
entity: light.kitchen_window
name: Window```

#

Then it won't be so crowded

twin quiver Jan 16, 2021, 10:29 PM

#

I know. I am already doing that but with auto-populating entities based on area on the specific area pages.. but my overview shows all active light or open windows and stuff like that... and when naming everything prefix with the area - names get too long. See here: https://imgur.com/a/yzRKZ4Z

polar kelp Jan 16, 2021, 10:29 PM

#

Also, the display name from the backend and the entity_id is entirely unrelated. You can have several lights known just as Ceiling, but they have entitiy_ids light.kitchen_ceiling, light.bedroom_ceiling etc.

twin quiver Jan 16, 2021, 10:30 PM

#

yeah, but naming everything the same - wont help me differentiate it on the overview panel 😄

polar kelp Jan 16, 2021, 10:30 PM

#

Yeah, I'm afraid there's not really a good solution to that problem.

twin quiver Jan 16, 2021, 10:30 PM

#

it does sound confusing 😄

polar kelp Jan 16, 2021, 10:31 PM

#

That card on the right looks to me like it's an entity-filter or auto-entities, right?

twin quiver Jan 16, 2021, 10:31 PM

#

yes

polar kelp Jan 16, 2021, 10:32 PM

#

In that case, you could maybe make light groups for every room, and have that card just display the groups instead of all lights. Then you'd know where there were lights on, even if you don't know exactly which ones.

#

Alternatively, this seems to be all the hype nowadays https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5y6rhwr5Y8c (and is what I personally use for overview)

twin quiver Jan 16, 2021, 10:34 PM

okay, thanks for the input, will think about that and watch the video 😄

frail iron Jan 16, 2021, 10:38 PM

#

I noticed the markdown card supports hyperlinks, could these feed a parameter to a homeassistant script?

polar kelp Jan 16, 2021, 10:40 PM

#

My gut feeling says no

#

Maybe via the REST api, but I don't think so https://developers.home-assistant.io/docs/api/rest

frail iron Jan 16, 2021, 10:48 PM

#

yeah I tried to creata a call to /api/services/myscript and I just get a blank UI window back with no execution

#

oh better, now I get a method not allowed

#

has to be a POST ofc

#

yeah, not doable. only way to post is a form and thats not supported from markdown

#

would be very cool though if there was some syntax in markdown that allowed for service calls

frail iron Jan 16, 2021, 11:32 PM

#

maybe anyone got some other clever ideas how to do some interactions on an attribute in the frontend? https://1drv.ms/u/s!AuIVw8SdOxQOiPI6D668-jIxphhaag?e=6ugcF4 I have so far a button to delete the last entered attribute but thats about all I could imagine right now

#

could be done in a website card if there is a service which forced update of said card?

Hey folks. I'm hoping I'm asking in the right channel. I've been trying to figure out why my calendar won't show up on my dashboard when I cast my dashboard to my chromecast.

#

I've tried both the stock calendar card as well as atomic calendar revive. The stock calendar card returned an empty calendar with no events. Revive gave me a small hint but saying "The calendar can't be loaded from Home Assistant component"

#

Tracking down where that error is thrown and looking at what is common between the two cards (big supposition that they are failing in the same way but I have to work with what I have) I see that they are both making calls to the API to get the events, and using a promise.all to collect them.

#

Does anyone know of other modules that I can try that follow this pattern? I'm trying to narrow down where the issue is in the process but without being able to replicate in browser only on chromecast my normal methods are a bit cut down.

polar kelp Alternatively, this seems to be all the hype nowadays <https://www.youtube.com/w...

I started working on this but I have already 14 views and maybe i'm only halfway done, the annoying part is to duplicate all the navigation from the top menu into the cards themselves

#

on the PC it makes little sense since I can see about 30 icons on the top menu at all times

#

on the phone its only 5 at a time so the top menu is now so cluttered with views its basically unusable

frail iron Jan 17, 2021, 1:01 PM

is the 3 vertical dots on the light card a new thing? how do I turn it off... nothing mentioned here and also doesn't show here - https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/light/

rich eagle Jan 17, 2021, 1:11 PM

#

Not new, but old screenshots on the linked doc page.

#

They provide access to the additional light controls, such as color, color temp, etc.

#

So why would you want to "turn them off"?

tranquil cave Jan 17, 2021, 1:37 PM

Hi! I am new to HA.
I have a few questions that i dont find an aswer that matches my competence and i hope that someone could point me in the right direction.
Since i am about to "sell" the idea about having a couple of screens around the house to my wife i need to give it some features that she finds interesting.
I have a few TP-Link HS110 outlets. They work perfect, but i cant find the energy sensor in lovelace. It shows in developer tools and seems to give the right numbers, How do i get the sensor to show?
I`d like to have some newspapers in lovelace, Does not mather if it is a www-site or feed, i have read somewhere that most newspapers block something (iframe?) is there a work around?
Also something that makes it so i can monitor weather from more than one location.

So you defined a templated sensor for the energy or are you talking about the attribute of the TP-Link "main" entity?

tranquil cave Jan 17, 2021, 2:05 PM

#

rich eagle So you defined a templated sensor for the energy or are you talking about the at...

Thanks for replying @rich eagle I have not yet done anything except installing tp-link integration,
It found the outlets and thats where i am 🙂

rich eagle Jan 17, 2021, 2:07 PM

#

Okay, then by default you have the devices now in HA and each device is represented by an entity. This entity has various attributes:

current_power_w: '3.48'
total_energy_kwh: '0.650'
voltage: '228.5'
current_a: '0.05'
today_energy_kwh: '0.055'

#

You can display those directly in an entities card. But if you want them to be in a proper sensor card with graph and all, you need to break out the relevant attributes into their own entities.

#

E.g. in my YAML configuration:

sensor:
  - platform: template
    sensors:
      tp_link_heat_pump_amps:
        friendly_name_template: "{{ states.switch.tp_link_heat_pump.name }} Current"
        value_template: '{{ states.switch.tp_link_heat_pump.attributes["current_a"] | float }}'
        unit_of_measurement: 'A'

#

That creates an entity for the current current of the outlet and you can then display that in a sensor card.

tranquil cave Jan 17, 2021, 2:10 PM

#

I guess i do have to put all my outlets in configuration.yaml?

rich eagle Jan 17, 2021, 2:14 PM

#

Only the derived template entities. The "main" ones are automatically created by the TP-Link Kasa Integration.

tranquil cave Jan 17, 2021, 2:15 PM

#

One of my outlets has entity "switch.uttag_1" is this correct then:
sensor:

platform: template
sensors:
tp_link_effekt:
friendly_name_template: "{{ states.switch.uttag_1 }} Current"
value_template: '{{ states.switch.uttag_1.attributes["current_a"] | float }}'
unit_of_measurement: 'A'

#

I just copy/pasted your lines and changed the entity

rich eagle Jan 17, 2021, 2:16 PM

#

Looks like it, yes

tranquil cave Jan 17, 2021, 2:16 PM

#

Perfect, thanks, i`ll test it right away.

#

Sorry to bother you again @rich eagle
Now i can see the sensor in lovelace, but it looks like this:

rich eagle Jan 17, 2021, 2:21 PM

#

The .name was missing in my friendly_name_template example.

#

Updated above.

tranquil cave Jan 17, 2021, 2:27 PM

#

I`ll try it 🙂 thanks.
But just to make shure, I do have to do this for every outlet that i want to be able to check current on?

#

And aslo, if i want to see the powerconsumption, wattage etc? Do you have any easy lines for that aswell?

#

I found something online, now i think i`ll figure it out. Thanks for leading me in the right direction!
Much appreciated!

Hi all, did a release update yesterday to 2121.1 and now my Fibaro dimmers don't react to the lovelace-cards anymore. Can't switch them on/off anymore and cannot control the dimlevel either. What changed......?
Besides the update I did not do anything. But for the Fibaro dimmers, now I cannot do what I did before the update. The UI-card looks different, asking an (optional) action to hold and an (optional) action on double click. But whatever I choose, not the desired action.
All nodes are complete. Any suggestions?

The only "workaround" I can currently think of, is to create a custom theme that sets the --secondary-text-color to the card background color and assign that to your light cards.

Then the dot icon would still be there functionally, but "invisible".

hi, don't know why, but from time to time, I can't access my frontend (not via name and not via IP) I'm getting "Unable to connect to Home Assistant.", after a couple of mins I'm able to login again. I look at the logs I don't see anyhting that can point to the issue.

#

Any recommendation how to debug it?

#

is there a logging settings for login?

frail iron Jan 17, 2021, 6:23 PM

#

are the view urls unique per dashboard?

#

I think im ready now with my in-dev dashboard and wanna move it over to default

#

but for some reason I cannot press save after pasting into the raw config editor

#

if there is no error but it doesn't save the raw config editor - what could be wrong?

#

its 946 lines so not too extreme

#

ok, its the markdown cards that are breaking the copy/paste

#

so if you use templates in your markdowns then you cant copy/paste into the raw editor

#

ill submit on github with example

rich eagle Jan 17, 2021, 6:41 PM

Sounds like a bug.

frail iron Jan 17, 2021, 6:44 PM

the issue submission checklist can be helpful 🙂

median harbor Jan 17, 2021, 6:48 PM

#

Is this right channel to ask about the built in cards?

#

I wanted to ask about the logic for ‘- type buttons’ in the entities card vs the logic for the button card.

#

I am super new and was super confused trying to use buttons in entity to call service. Basically couldn’t get it to work. Seems the call-service is not fully supported nor is is the action types syntax.

#

Is that intended? If so could I raise a GitHub issues to make logic support the same?

#

Basically my ask is to support all the features of button consistently in the buttons array type in entities card.

rich eagle Jan 17, 2021, 6:54 PM

#

That indeed seems weird. Tickets sounds good to me.

median harbor Jan 17, 2021, 6:54 PM

#

Cool, will do, I think it is by design. I have good scenario and can provide examples.

rich eagle Jan 17, 2021, 6:56 PM

#

Although, they might serve different purposes.

median harbor Jan 17, 2021, 6:58 PM

#

Indeed, I eventually worked around it using a horizontal card for the 3 buttons, just was 3 hours of banging my head against my expectations 🙂

#

Hmm can’t post url or image, sigh, can’t show.

#

://imgur.com/a/H8nmqlS

#

Just add the http as needed.

rich eagle Jan 17, 2021, 7:04 PM

#

Looks nice nonetheless.

median harbor Jan 17, 2021, 7:05 PM

#

The 3 buttons could not be replicated in buttons class of the entities card. Thanks. Yeah I am super impressed with HA it has grown so much since I last looked at it a few years ago.

#

This approach also avoids needing to create scripts or automation to interface with harmony integration.

median harbor Jan 17, 2021, 7:07 PM

#

rich eagle Looks nice nonetheless.

Thanks 🙂 it’s part of my first ever dashboard.

rich eagle Jan 17, 2021, 7:08 PM

#

I just had a first look at the code: The buttons do have at least some of the actions logic already in place. Need to debug to see where it stops.

median harbor Jan 17, 2021, 7:12 PM

#

Yeah, that’s what was confusing. I also found one variant where something insisted on a name for a button but the buttons card doesn’t. But I would have to repro fresh as this was all 11pm to 3am work (after wife had gone to bed). I can pm code if needed. But probably better if I log examples in an issue on gh.

rich eagle Jan 17, 2021, 7:15 PM

#

Yes, log the issue. But I just tested and I can successfully set actions for the buttons in buttons even though the docs do not mention that yet.

#

So it might be more scenario specific. I tested with more-info and url.

median harbor Jan 17, 2021, 7:34 PM

#

Will do. Mine was call-service and tried it as a - type: call-service and as on press action (sorry forgot syntax, on iPad at mo).

rich eagle Jan 17, 2021, 7:38 PM

#

Will need to test that then. I just created a PR that will update the docs for buttons plus a second one coming since I found a small inconsistency in the frontend thanks to you "forcing" me to test buttons 😜

jaunty frost Jan 17, 2021, 8:04 PM

#

Hi, I startied using HA casted on my Google nest, awesome experience. However I find that the sliders and toggles are a bit small. Anyone can recommend a lovelace integration that gives me "thicc" buttons?

rich eagle Jan 17, 2021, 8:21 PM

#

You are not looking for an "integration" but either some "custom cards" or some "themes" (not sure if themes can influence the sliders and toggle sizes though)

Yes, this is the correct place here. I just wanted to make you have the correct terminology 🙂 .

median harbor Jan 17, 2021, 8:39 PM

#

also i assume the reason that show_state didn't work with my entities (and threw error in the code validator) is there is no state with a service-call aka nothing to measure state from?

#

oh, or am i supposed to use state_color instead, i missed that in the docs at 2am, sorry

#

also, (gosh i am PITA) why does the entities button https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/entities/#button require a name when a button in the button card doesnt? (want me to log that too 🙂 )

jaunty frost Jan 17, 2021, 8:53 PM

Thinking about that a bit more: Not sure if the name should be optional, since we do not officially allow an entity here (since for that we already have buttons).

median tangle how can i run a script using the tap action on the glance card?

Never tried it myself, but with "call-service" you should be able to execute a script, since each script is also a service.

median tangle Jan 17, 2021, 10:30 PM

#

i did that, i used:

  - entity: script.stereo_power
    name: Power
    icon: 'mdi:power'
    tap_action:
      action: call-service
      service: script.stereo_power
```and nothing happened when i pressed it

alright people I've been trying to recover and old hass.io RPi 3 for a few hours and I need help

it's hass.io with home assistant 88.1

#

i lost the password

#

i have the Pi on a monitor with a keyboard, and my ha command doesn't allow using auth

median harbor Jan 18, 2021, 5:15 AM

#

weird i guess you have the other options on https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/locked_out

#

you signed in as root at the console right?

vapid tapir Jan 18, 2021, 5:15 AM

#

yes

#

is version .88 too old to have auth available in the CLI?

#

i know the user name

#

so I was hoping to just do the password reset

median harbor Jan 18, 2021, 5:16 AM

#

dunno, can you upgrade it with the ha commands?

vapid tapir Jan 18, 2021, 5:17 AM

vapid tapir Jan 18, 2021, 5:18 AM

#

I can stop HA, but then I have no idea how to access the file system

#

since SMB or whatever is password protected

#

so I can't delete the auth files

#

how can I delete those files from CLI?

median harbor Jan 18, 2021, 5:28 AM

you do know at the ha prompt if you type login you will get full linux root access?

also what does it say when you try to auth at the ha prompt

remember you don't need to type ha

vapid tapir Jan 18, 2021, 5:29 AM

then it says "login:"

#

i type root

median harbor Jan 18, 2021, 5:30 AM

yeah and then you should see ha > on screen and a blinking line cursor

#

that is know as a command prompt or prompt

vapid tapir Jan 18, 2021, 5:31 AM

#

yea, but it's the 'hassio >` CLI

#

however, I did just type login a second time

#

and now I have # linux access

median harbor Jan 18, 2021, 5:32 AM

#

and at hassio > when you type say auth --username what did it say?

vapid tapir Jan 18, 2021, 5:33 AM

#

no command

#

i think this version is too old to have auth in the CLI

#

i will have to delete the files

median harbor Jan 18, 2021, 5:34 AM

and you tried ha auth --username too ?

(i am using docker/supervised)

on older systems it might be in ~/.homeassistant

vapid tapir Jan 18, 2021, 5:39 AM

just like i typed it

dawn acorn Jan 18, 2021, 6:04 AM

vapid tapir Jan 18, 2021, 6:05 AM

i dunno, not really a linux user

i -all is easier to remember

lol

dawn acorn Jan 18, 2021, 6:06 AM

-l is long list format and -a is all

so it is the same as ls -a -l -l

Hi, quick question. Is it possible to trigger an event using tap_action. The only reference I can find on the forum is to trigger an automation that triggers an event as action.

frail iron Jan 18, 2021, 10:56 AM

#

willow arrow Hi, quick question. Is it possible to trigger an event using tap_action. The onl...

whats the usecase? events are fired automatically generally, user input is an action

#

actions generate events

#

so why would you want an event when you can have an action 🙂

willow arrow Jan 18, 2021, 11:01 AM

#

I have a single automation that is triggered by an event to switch on/off/dim lights in a room.
That automation first selects the appropriate brightness and colour temperature before actually turning on the light.
So to prevent putting the exact same logic behind the tap_action, it would be ideal to be able to 'trigger the event', so that the automation picks it up.

I can do it using another automation. I just can get it to work with a 'tap_action'

#

The idea is that if I ever need to change the logic in the automation, I only have to change it one time (re-use existing code )

#

So I want my action to be an 'event trigger' basically

frail iron Jan 18, 2021, 11:04 AM

#

add another trigger to your automation

#

then you don't need the redo the whole logic?

willow arrow Jan 18, 2021, 11:05 AM

#

Yes, but I need external for my automation

#

external input *

frail iron Jan 18, 2021, 11:06 AM

#

i suggest ask in #automations-archived

#

I do everything in node red, since a flow makes more sense to me 🙂

willow arrow Jan 18, 2021, 11:07 AM

#

But to answer my question. It's not possible to simply trigger an event as a 'tap_action'?

frail iron Jan 18, 2021, 11:08 AM

#

nop, if you use the GUI you see a dropdown of what is possible

willow arrow Jan 18, 2021, 11:08 AM

#

That's a shame... Thanks for your time 🙂

frail iron Jan 18, 2021, 11:08 AM

#

with a call service you can do anything that is possible in HA though

#

in your case, what you probably want is a script not an automation

Hey guys. short question. i tried to integrate a lovelace card for my xiaomi vacuum via HACS. followed those steps and it seems to be set up correct. I cant add it to the dashboard tho.
https://github.com/benct/lovelace-xiaomi-vacuum-card

#

it shows up at Configuration -> Lovelace Dashboards -> Resources panel

got it by now.

clear abyss Jan 18, 2021, 12:55 PM

#

another short question: got problems with an image path i wanna use for a card. the original path is /config/www/img/vacuum.png
i tried image: /config/www/img/vacuum.png , image: /local/www/img/vacuum.png, image: /local/img/vacuum.png

I just don't know how i get it to work correctly.

karmic tiger Jan 18, 2021, 12:56 PM

#

This would be the correct mapped path:
image: /local/img/vacuum.png

#

Is this the first time you've used the www folder?

clear abyss Jan 18, 2021, 12:57 PM

#

i just started using home assitant in general ^^

karmic tiger Jan 18, 2021, 12:57 PM

#

When you create the www folder, you need to restart HA for it to map it to /local

clear abyss Jan 18, 2021, 12:58 PM

#

why did your path work. did i have a typo? seems like the last one i tried before

#

anyways! Thanks

Hello All! I'm trying to figure out how to show the users who accessed the ELK-M1 keypad in the Logbook card, can anyone help with this? I already enabled the global setting 35 as mentioned in https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/elkm1/

willow arrow Jan 18, 2021, 1:31 PM

@frail iron In case you care 🙂 - I created a small generic script that will trigger the event. So my lovelace sends executes the script with two variables (which switch is being sent and which button that switch - basically the two variable parts of the deconz_event) and the script translates that to the deconz_event I'm looking for. Thanks again for your time earlier on!

so i just went out for 2 hours and i was still loading when i got back. how long does it normaly take?

#

nvm i closed the loading window and tried again and it worked

#

do i need to restart HA befor i use it?

Hi - I'm new to Discord and to Home Assistant, so please bear with me... I've installed HA on a brand new Pi3 Model B+ from an image on a brand new 32GB SD card. It starts up and runs OK for, say 30 mins to an hour, then the supervisor function just hangs and I can no longer access supervisor/logs/file editor/SSH etc. The lovelace overview continues to work however. Using the configuration checker gives the error message "no configuration.yaml file", but I don't know if this is a symptom or a cause of the problem. I can't SSH in to the Pi either, so can only crash it by power down to reset, after which HA will restart and run again for no more than about 30mins before the supervisor hangs again. Does anyone have any ideas what could be causing this? All the installation logs that I've seen during set up, don't suggest that there are any errors in installation or configuration. Is there an equivalent of a safe mode start up that could be used to try to eliminate possible causes? Thanks for your advice!

#

If there's a better topic to post this on, please do let me know

Anyone have a clue how I could add this as a card to lovelace? Basically it's a single SVG file, which acts as a proper analog clock

polar kelp Jan 18, 2021, 1:57 PM

#

@sudden lotus I think hacs has some guide on what to do if a plugin doesn't work. Or you could try this https://github.com/thomasloven/hass-config/wiki/Lovelace-Plugins#common-problems

That's a bit outdated, though...

Can I create multiple room cards in 1 dashboard view, but then link each card to only show if that room is selected?This is for a mobile ui.

near meadow Jan 18, 2021, 4:13 PM

if you look at zsarnett youtubes. you can create multiple Views (one for each room for example), and then have a card that allows you choose which view to switch to

feral rivet Jan 18, 2021, 4:15 PM

yea i took a look at it , but was curious if it was necessary to have a view for each room.

I'm writing new frontend card that I want to listen for websocket messages and then take an action. Is there an easy frontend helper api for interacting with the WS layer? (I've already implemented my backend in python as a component.) Sorry if there is an obvious answer but I've looked and have been getting lost in the frontend source code.

polar kelp Jan 18, 2021, 6:50 PM

#

There’s some functions in the hass object.

distant juniper Jan 18, 2021, 6:55 PM

#

I see in your lovelace-card-tools you mention subscribeEvents(). But looking at hass, or hass.connection, I don't see that. Has it changed? Moved elswehere? Or is there a different hass object and I'm using the wrong one somehow?

distant juniper Jan 18, 2021, 7:11 PM

#

In fact, I'm looking at the frontend code provide_hass.ts and I see a bunch of nice helpers. but when I look at hass.connection, I don't see them all. Weird. I'm pretty confused from all this!

karmic tiger Jan 18, 2021, 9:23 PM

Lovelace won't limit you. The capabilities of your network and and image processing will.

how about live cams, same deal?

karmic tiger Jan 18, 2021, 9:24 PM

They still go via your network, right?

broken compass Jan 18, 2021, 9:26 PM

my network is pretty good as i have no issues there (gig network), and homeassistant is dockerized on an r710 with plenty of resources. i can see all my cams (12 in total) but i can only enable live views on 4 of them. and all my cams are streaming from blueiris as mjpeg

but I thought Hacs would add that automatically

#

I thought it was the purpose of Hacs

karmic tiger Jan 18, 2021, 9:49 PM

The purpose of HACS is to download stuff and put it in the right place. It doesn't mean it does everything for you.

Go follow the instructions.

I'm trying to setup a card on my Lovelace that lists all rooms with lights on and an image at the bottom (saying turn off all lights) to be Able to turn off all the rooms currently on.

I have them setup as a light entity called light.all_lights

This is the code i have got for the footer image (but doesn't work) not sure if there is an easy solution

Footer:
Type: picture
Img: 'x.png'
Service: light.turn_off
Data:
Entity: light.all_lights

#

^ so with that the image is all fine, just the actual service is the issue

#

Also would it be best to set them up as a scene and implement that into it?

unkempt fable Jan 19, 2021, 3:13 AM

#

Disregard my question I have fixed it.

Incase its of any benefit to anyone else the code from after img i used was:

Tap_action:
Action: call-service
Service: scene.turn_on
Service_data:
Entity_id: scene.all_off

One time upon hold release (PR to make that clearer in the docs just created)

That's correct. The internal functionality is unfortunately a bit underdocumented, but at least there's this: https://developers.home-assistant.io/docs/api/websocket. Also, feel free to ask for help in #devs_frontend-archived.

hi. when I use the history-graph card for my thermostat, I automaticly see info for 3 attributes (?). (current temperature, target temperature and heating) I can click on them and the it strikes the name and hides that data, but I can't find a way to do this by default. I only want to see 2 of the three results on my lovelace. Am i missing something?

#

exclude: target_temperature doesn't seem to work

mossy pier Jan 19, 2021, 9:09 AM

#

Why is it that while adding YAML to a card i the UI, I have to add "call-service" to the action, while in the automation and script part, adding this breaks the the code.

action: call-service service: media_player.play_media

#

versus:

`action:

service: media_player.play_media`

#

I find it very confusing that the YAML syntax rules differ from one part of HA to the next.

polar kelp Jan 19, 2021, 9:31 AM

#

They are not meant to be the same. There's e.g. lots of actions that cannot be performed from a lovelace card, and there's some things that can't be done in an automation. The similarity is incidental.

sly pulsar Jan 19, 2021, 9:33 AM

I would like to set up buttons with custom (non-msi) PNG images.
I have tried this with the custom button-card, following examples in the forum, but I can't get the card to do anything other than display the default entity icon. I can't get styles to work either, so it looks a lot like I'm just getting a basic button instead of a custom one.

I'm a newbie at this, so I expect I'm doing something basic wrong, but have yet to figure it out after a lot of searching for clues.

I have button-card.js in my www folder.

I have the Lovelace Dashboard Resources set to /local/button-card.js

Here's the relevant portion of my yaml. It's not what I would use in the final form, but one I have to test how this works (or not!) https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/KGDsGXtPbM/

Hi everyone, I have "Roku-Card" (https://github.com/iantrich/roku-card) installed via HACS, and was able to add it fine to my normal lovelace dash, however on the mobile app, it won't work.

Not sure how to find what objects and what protocols it uses, I wouldn't think so since it's just supposed to be loading a js module from the already SSL'd www folder

On nabu, open the page, open chrome console, refresh and look for errors

@dawn acorn Which Nabu page? It works on a computer, just not mobile app, so scenarios are: 1) Working on NabuCasa instance via desktop 2) Working via Android Home Assistant when configured locally only, not if navigating via NabuCasa.

Weird, I just started using hass and it seemed obvious to use grid to create tiles. Guess it is new?

I mix grids and entities and combine into vertical or horizontal stack to get grouping consistency on different form factors of the same dashboard. Otherwise card reflow is a little unpredictable.

Yes, you can. At the right time, navigate the DOM tree (careful about shadowroots) and inject the code you want. Can absolutely be done, and your idea on how to do it is a good one.

#

You'll want to start by checking that the custom cards are properly referenced in Config > Lovelace Dashboards > Resources. If they're not, add them by following the instructions for that custom card.

#

If they are and you still have the problem, you'll need to clear your browser's cache (Ctrl+F5 should do the trick).

polar kelp Jan 20, 2021, 6:29 PM

coral thicket Jan 20, 2021, 6:29 PM

yeah, that's what I thought

polar kelp Jan 20, 2021, 6:30 PM

#

Or you could get the hass object from document.querySelector("home-assistant").hass and extract the state of the sensor from there.

You'll still need to make sure it's replaced once per minute, though.

atomic canopy Jan 20, 2021, 6:35 PM

I'm have trouble getting the thermostat card working completely. I use MQTT discovery for it, and some of the features work fine. However, the mode seems to be missing - the dropdown for the mode in the detail screen is blank. "Preset" has "None","Run","Hold" (note the added "None"). "Fan" has "Auto","On" (OK).

Here's what the MQTT discovery payload has in it:

"modes":["Auto","Off","Cool","Heat"]
"fan_modes":["Auto","On"]
"hold_modes":["Run","Hold"]

Any ideas?

The entire frontend is one big piece of data, really, but it's split into chunks so you don't have to download all of it at once.

#

It's nearly impossible to know what's in which chunk, though, because it's highly optimized, obfuscated and compressed.

#

You may want to check out browser_mod. That gives you a sensor for which view a certain browser is currently displaying.

Hey 👋 everyone. Quick question is their anyway to show a fan button on the thermostat control card 🤷🏻‍♂️ I love the card but it seems to be missing a fundamental feature on the UI being the fan speed. It’s not intuitive to the user to click the three dots to set it from low to high etc. I suspect I have just configured it incorrectly as it would seem strange that I’m the first person to have the issue 🤷🏻‍♂️

twin tusk Jan 21, 2021, 9:43 AM

#

yes

sudden lotus Jan 21, 2021, 9:43 AM

#

yes but i think in the wrong place but i cant fine a thing saying where to put it

twin tusk Jan 21, 2021, 9:43 AM

#

i add them through interface (config-lovelace-resources)

sudden lotus Jan 21, 2021, 9:44 AM

#

that did it thanks

#

im suprised HACS cant/dosent do that for you

twin tusk Jan 21, 2021, 9:44 AM

#

🙂

#

https://i.imgur.com/xJ7LnbL.png

#

well...after first card from hacs i learned the lesson :))

#

so i add them...hacs basically installs the files locally...and do not put into resources

sudden lotus Jan 21, 2021, 9:47 AM

#

so is this the only way to add them to resaurces or can you add a willed card path or something like that?

#

it wouldent take many custom cards for that process to be unfesably long

#

#

@reef plume maybe this is more helpful to have https://github.com/nervetattoo/simple-thermostat

reef plume Jan 21, 2021, 9:49 AM

#

Yeah I tried that one too but it doesn’t have a button to allow the end user to adjust the fan speed

#

I’m surprised it’s not in the default thermostat card to be honest. I thought maybe you needed some yaml code to enable it?

twin tusk Jan 21, 2021, 9:51 AM

#

it depends of what u phisically have. i have an air conditioner and works putting fan in 3 speed mode

#

check entity in dev - states to see if you really have fan mode

reef plume Jan 21, 2021, 9:56 AM

#

Yup I do

#

Fan_modes (auto, high, medium, low) is a state attribute of climate.upstairs_ac

#

Climate.upstairs_ac also has a hvac_mode of fan_only.

twin tusk Jan 21, 2021, 9:59 AM

#

then the simple-thermostat card should list that

reef plume Jan 21, 2021, 10:06 AM

#

The simple card gives me an up and down button to set the temperature and buttons along the bottom to set the operation mode. But no button to set the fan speed. Unless I have to add some yaml code to make them appear 🤷🏻‍♂️

twin tusk Jan 21, 2021, 10:08 AM

#

does look like https://i.imgur.com/auVCsYz.png

#

?

reef plume Jan 21, 2021, 10:20 AM

#

Yup

#

How would you set the thermostat to cool, 19, low fan speed?

twin tusk Jan 21, 2021, 10:25 AM

#

not sure i get it....turn on cool mode, 19 degrees , then low fan

#

my status is fan_only ...meaning i control only fan speed....but never i am bothering with that...i need cold or heat.....life is simple

reef plume Jan 21, 2021, 10:31 AM

#

My thermostat is for a reverse cycle wall mounted ac unit in a bedroom. At night you don’t want the fan speed on high or auto because it makes too much noise and will wake you up. Hence why the user may want to turn the air conditioning on and set both the temperature and the fan speed. With the default thermostat card we can set the temperature and mode to cool. But to set the fan speed to low we have to click the three dots and change from auto to low. With the simple card their is also no button or control to set the fan speed (not the hvac mode) and no three dots 🤷🏻‍♂️

#

Sounds like most people just leave their ac units on auto fan speed and set the temperature.

hello I was wondering if someone can help me with trying to add an HACS card to lovelace?

#

i believe I have followed the directions and the card is red and says no card type configured

#

then lists the text for the card

twin tusk Jan 21, 2021, 3:29 PM

#

u put it in config-lovelace-resources ?

azure hawk Jan 21, 2021, 3:35 PM

#

yes and no

#

I started with a survelance card and it said to put files in www folder

#

then backed off and trying to add a button-card from hacs

#

i get same result in both cases

#

in the survelance card examples it said to create a ui-lovelace.yaml and add a resource and a view with text similar to the text i add for the card

#

HACS added an entry for both cards in Configuration->lovelace->resources

#

so when I add Manual card
I add this text

type: 'custom:button-card'
entity: switch.ac
icon: 'mdi:air-conditioner'
color: 'rgb(28, 128, 199)'

#

allows me to save

#

but the card says No card type configured

type: grid
columns: 4
cards:

type: button
entity: media_player.sonos_keuken
icon: 'mdi:speaker'
name: Keuken
show_state: false
tap_action:
action: call-service
service: media_player.media_play_pause

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

Don't forget you can edit your post rather than repeatedly posting the same thing.

For over 15 lines you must use a code share site such as https://paste.ubuntu.com/ or https://www.hastebin.com/.

Hi-- I'm trying to solve a problem (misunderstanding?) with a use-case similar to @azure hawk (last night): New HACS install (seems to be working), installed button-card, have found button-card.js in the file system (/config/www/community/button-card/button-card.js), added a lovelace javascript module resource (using Configuration->Lovelace Dashboards + Resources tab), cleared browser cache and restarted Home Assistant. After doing these things, adding a card of type "custom:button-card" produces a message "Custom element doesn't exist: button-card". Do my steps seem right? Anybody see anything I did wrong? Advice? Thanks!

#

Am I defining the resource correctly-- that is, should it in fact contain the full path to button-card.js?

karmic tiger Jan 22, 2021, 10:51 PM

#

Replace /config/www with /local.

@karmic tiger Thanks! Will try right now.

Tell your 3rd grid columns: 1. You only defined it for the other two.

wild echo Jan 22, 2021, 10:54 PM

#

@karmic tiger Thanks so much! custom:button-card as a type now works!

mortal gazelle Jan 22, 2021, 10:55 PM

wild echo <@363445247323144192> Thanks! Will try right now.

because i needed 3 colums there, but added it, no change

rich eagle Jan 22, 2021, 10:57 PM

Why three columns? The only content in that grid is the horizontal-stack. If that should use the full width of your iframe, then this grid needs to know it should only render as one column.

mortal gazelle Jan 22, 2021, 10:59 PM

#

yes but it seems that my iframe is to small.. 1/3th.
I put 6 button cards in 3rd grid and puts them al in in normal place

rich eagle Jan 22, 2021, 11:00 PM

#

I thought this is what you wanted? Spread the buttons below the iframe?

mortal gazelle Jan 22, 2021, 11:01 PM

#

spread the buttons?

rich eagle Jan 22, 2021, 11:02 PM

#

"Spread" as in "use the whole width" so the cards become bigger. I thought your problems were the too small cards / icons since they did not use the whole width?

mortal gazelle Jan 22, 2021, 11:05 PM

#

this noob needs more info on the spread

Add columns: 1 in line 15. That's it.

mortal gazelle Jan 22, 2021, 11:12 PM

#

and what with the weather forcast..

#

looks like line 15 worked.. need to search why now it dit that

rich eagle Jan 22, 2021, 11:13 PM

#

If you do not specify a columns it defaults to 3 as stated in the docs.

#

So by default is only uses 1/3 of the space. That is why your horizontal-stack was so small and as a result the elements in the stack were so small.

mortal gazelle Jan 22, 2021, 11:14 PM

#

you are a life saver.. found the weather forcast in the same way

You only want to change it for this one card? You can just assign a theme to it then. However, when the media player is playing the coloring will be overwritten by the media (if things like album cover are provided by the entity).

Sometimes when I click on an entity the page kinda freezes, anyone else had this issue?

#

I'm on an rpi4 4GB, has a fan and radiators so cooling is definitely not an issue, RAM or CPU never go above 50%

#

Figured it might be a frontend issue

What is your template using for the value? The remaining attribute?
EDIT: Ah, I see the issue now. The frontend behavior is a bit inconsistent here.

You could always use a custom card and apply a CSS transformation rule.

hello guys, is there a better way and or version to show a state graph. Basically showing a light status on/off through the day and trying to see if there is a better/more visually appealing option out there.

I have done a little research on this subject and havent found any other options, just seeing if there is a better way.

languid topaz Jan 23, 2021, 6:12 PM

@proud lodge You may want to consider mini-graph-card (https://github.com/kalkih/mini-graph-card)... That page has an example of showing binary sensor states for something like on/off over time.

I'm trying to call a scene that has been created by Tuya integration by pressing a button but I am having trouble getting it to work. If I run the scence via Developer Service Tools then the scenes work. Could someone take a look at the code for the button and advise what I'm doing wrong, I've tried both the friendly name and ID as entity:

type: button
name: Dog
icon: 'mdi:dog'
icon_height: 120px
tap_action:
action: call-service
service: scene.turn_on
entity: scene.ittndyovaganenl3
hold_action:
action: call-service
service: scene.turn_on
entity: scene.jfewzf6hnok4i5at

rich eagle Jan 23, 2021, 9:08 PM

Your tap_action and hold_action are incorrect.

#

Should be:

tap_action:
  action: call-service
  service: scene.turn_on
  service_data: 
    entity_id: scene.ittndyovaganenl3

#

I'm in fact surprised that your YAML did not raise an error in the editor?
EDIT: Well it shows an error to me in the editor, so probably to you as well?

coarse wigeon Jan 23, 2021, 9:18 PM

#

That fixed it, Thanks 🙂
The only message I was getting was the one below, which I assumed was just saying I need to edit it in Show Code Editor:

UI editor is not supported for this config:
Key "tap_action" is not supported by the UI editor.You can still edit your config in YAML.

rich eagle Jan 23, 2021, 9:19 PM

Yes, it is misleading. I am checking the code right now to potentially adjust that.

You'll probably want a #templates-archived for that.
