A different take on designing a Lovelace UI

My Popup Card for the camera looks like this:

action: fire-dom-event
browser_mod:
  command: popup
  title: Kamera
  style:
    hui-grid-card:
      $hui-entities-card$: |
        #states {
          padding-bottom: 0 !important;
        }
      $hui-history-graph-card$ : |
        .content {
          padding: 1.8em 2em 1.8em 2em !important;
        }
      $hui-glance-card$ : |
        .entities.no-header {
          padding-top: 0 !important;
        }
      $: |
        button-card {
          justify-self: center;
          margin: 0.8em 0 2.5em 0;
          width: 100%;
        }
        #root {
          grid-gap: 0 !important;
        }
        hui-map-card {
          height: 99.5% !important;
        }
  card:
    type: grid
    columns: 1
    square: false
    cards: 
      - type: picture-entity
        entity: camera.blink_miccam1
        show_name: false
        show_state: false


      - type: entities
        show_header_toggle: false
        entities:
          - entity: script.camera_stream
            name: Kamera auslösen
            icon: mdi:cast

Did this help?

I cant change the color of my lights anymore. Have anybody an idea why?

imne · December 8, 2021, 12:12am

can you please share your yaml for this ui

maverik80 · December 8, 2021, 3:13am

thank you very much, it was a beginner mistake

Hey @Mattias_Persson,

I’ve tried to update my person automation as you did in your last update.
But you have only 2 people in your house. I have four. Did I do this right here?

- id: '8423590985012'
  alias: Person Home
  initial_state: true
  trigger:
    - platform: state
      entity_id:
        - person.paul
        - person.nathalie
        - person.juliette
        - person.julien
      from:
        - home
        - away
      to:
        - home
        - away
  action:
    - choose:
      - conditions: >
          {{ trigger.entity_id == 'person.paul' }}
        sequence:
        - service: mqtt.publish
          data:
            topic: homeassistant/persistence/paul
            payload_template: >
              {{ now() }}
            retain: true
        - service: mqtt.publish
          data:
            topic: homeassistant/persistence/juliette
            payload_template: >
              {{ now() }}
            retain: true
        - service: mqtt.publish
          data:
            topic: homeassistant/persistence/julien
            payload_template: >
              {{ now() }}
            retain: true
      default:
        - service: mqtt.publish
          data:
            topic: homeassistant/persistence/nathalie
            payload_template: >
              {{ now() }}
            retain: true

I don’t understand the default: thing going on.

The way I did it, I don’t have the time in the button anymore. I did change everything else accordingly.
Thanks

Hello @Se7enair ! How did you manage to add cameras on your setup?

soylant · December 8, 2021, 7:20pm

@Mattias_Persson
Hello,

I’m looking to get a count of open doors like what was done for the lights in the Sidebar.
How can I do it?

Mattias_Persson · December 8, 2021, 10:39pm

I’ve added “append” so you can add your door list there

{%- set media_players = [
            states.media_player.sony_bravia_tv
          ] %}
          
          
{%- set lights_on = lights | selectattr('state','eq','on') | list %}
          {%- set lights_name = lights | selectattr('state','eq','on') | map(attribute='name') | join(', ') %}
          
          
{%- set switches_on = switches | selectattr('state','eq','on') | list %}
          {%- set media_players_playing = media_players | selectattr('state','eq','playing') | list %}
          {%- set append = switches_on + media_players_playing %}
          {%- set switches_name = append | map(attribute='name') | join(', ') %}
          
          
{%- if (lights_on | length == 0) and (switches_on | length > 0) -%}
            {{ switches_name | regex_replace(',([^,]*)$',' och\\1') }} är på

            {{ lights_name }} och {{switches_name }} är på

            {{ lights_name }}, {{ switches_name | regex_replace(',([^,]*)$',' och\\1') }} är på

Mattias_Persson · December 8, 2021, 10:40pm

Nope, try curl command in terminal first and make note of any errors

Mattias_Persson · December 8, 2021, 10:44pm

No, away is wrong and you need trigger.entity_id for each person

https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/scripts/#choose-a-group-of-actions

It just means “else” and it’s optional

Mattias_Persson · December 8, 2021, 10:44pm

Everything up-to-date?

Mattias_Persson · December 8, 2021, 10:46pm

Are you going to share your secrets.yaml? It’s done manually

Mattias_Persson · December 8, 2021, 10:49pm

type: picture-entity is its own card and is not a valid for type: entities. You can however use the “internal” name type: custom:hui-picture-entity-card [source] (or hui-element)

I’d skip entities altogether and if you need other cards group them in a vertical-stack

chezpaul2 · December 8, 2021, 11:00pm

I did change all instances of your “not_home” to “away” so it should work, right?

Mattias_Persson · December 8, 2021, 11:04pm

chezpaul2 · December 8, 2021, 11:04pm

You have trigger identity for 2 people. I just made it 4. Does that not work?

Mattias_Persson · December 8, 2021, 11:09pm

That part is correct but the action you’ve posted is “if person.paul changes state update timestamp of paul, juliette and julien”

I saw that some guys here were using the thermostat-popup-card by DBuit.
There are some issues with it and because the repo is not well maintained I added two pull request to the original repository.

Additionally I adjusted some styles. If you want your thermostat popup to look like the screenshot below, feel free to use the URL of my fork when installing via HACS:
