2025.2: Iterating on backups

Upgraded to 2025.2.1 (I skipped 2025.2.0) having authentication errors with Litter Robot integration.

State values are only showing up as Unavilable after doing the upgrade, so I think the issue is with the update

I do not think this is a coincidence - Walkersway has reported the same problem 4 days ago - 2025.2: Iterating on backups - #58 by Walkersway

I have the same issue,
expecially with gas and solar,
but only in the morning, in the afternoon it’s ok.
I see the issue best on IOS, but also in the webinterface the with is different.


but less obvious.

By the afternoon, you probably have enough hourly readings for it to be able to correctly work out the bar widths?

that’s why I think,
But almost all days have 24 hours.
on yearly basis there are 2 exceptions, So I’m not sure if it is really needed to calculate the with dynamically.
and if it needs to be calculated dynamically, IMHO it should be calculated based on all hours, not only base on the once where there are actually values.
Still I think the energy dashboard is really cool.

Have successfully setup automatic backups on onedrive location. Was using previously onedrive backup add-on. Wondering why process time with new integrated backup is almost three times longer than with onedrive backup add-on (8 minutes vs 3 minutes)

I noticed, that the graph in the energy dashboard now shows addditional/alternative sources (like solar power) on top of the bar. AFAIR in previous versions it showed it at the bottom of the bar.

Is that configurable?

Context:
From a visibility/clarity perspective, I find it more intuitiv to show it at the bottom as the correlation with the solar production chart directly underneath was immediately obvious.
Unfortunately I do not have a screenshot how it was before …

Cheers, Daniel.

Yeah that has been noticed a few times but no one has opened a front end issue to get it fixed. See: Energy dashboard - flip bars - #2 by tom_l

Nobody reacted.
So, the question is still here.
Lots of efforts were spent for this migration, some old functionality is still broken, some already fixed, some cannot be fixed due to own issues in Echarts.
(not to mention that Echarts works slower)
Hopefully Echarts.js will give more useful features which are not available in Charts.js. Can only guess.

Perhaps you missed all 20+ of the WTHs asking for updated history plots with more functionality.

Perhaps I checked if this functionality is possible with Chart.js.

Most of it wasn’t.

Then a simple explanation from a dev team could be sufficient.
And note that this migration caused a speed degradation.

If you want this type of detailed information you have to get it from the PR or the developer who made the change.

This is such an odd and IMHO kind of immature take from you :man_shrugging:t2: - really bizarre.

The person who implemented the echarts PR is a NabuCasa employee.

I didn’t realize he was hired onto NC, when did that happen?

That wouldn’t matter. Changes are still reviewed and accepted. So b/c should see the value.

And if I google the differences. I see chart is more lightweight. But echart is more powerful.
Probably this will give more possibilities on entity timelines selecting more then 24hours.

Just from listening to the release party, it was said that while the effort for now was to just mostly replicate existing functionality for charts, they have big plans for the future to use new features (and new chart types) that echarts supports. It wasn’t elaborated exactly what those would be.
