Announcement: HADasboard beta4 - Release Candidate!

Looks like your indentation is off - target should be directly under feed, and rss_update should be at the same indentation level as rss_feeds, like this:

AppDaemon:
  rss_feeds: 
     - feed: http://rss.cnn.com/rss/cnn_topstories.rss
       target: cnn
  rss_update: 600

This is just a copy-paste glitch :slight_smile: I do have correct indentation in config. My apologies for misleading.

Do the errors show up as soon as you load the dash or afterwards? Also, Do you initially get feed information?

It seems that these errors are showing up every 6 minutes which correlates with rss_update value. Initial load doesn’t generate errors but no data either.

Thanks, will try once I get it working (so far can’t start it)

I followed all the steps but I get this error.

python3 -m appdaemon.appdaemon -c home\pi\appdaemon_dashboard\appdaemon\conf
Traceback (most recent call last):

config.read_file(open(config_file_conf))
TypeError: invalid file: None

Any idea?

conf dir is wrong.

i guess you have a Linux environment then you should use / and not
and start with /

but replacing the conf dir with just “-c conf” should work also

I might need to pick your brain on how to set this up later! (If you don’t mind).

I’ve always wanted this but don’t really know how to set this up. I thought I had to make the hostname of my server(s) the same as my external domain. And also modify the local domainname in my router. But I can do everything from the DNS?

Yes but that is only necessary if you are connecting to HASS via SSL.

Sorry if this is the wrong thread, but a feature suggestion for a future version of HADashboard: Integrate HA Floorplan (https://github.com/pkozul/ha-floorplan).

It would be more of a reinvention than an integration but it is already on my list

We never thought you were the only one to keep happy Rene, you need to keep Robert and me happy too. :slight_smile:
And as for your wife not knowing us, we would be happy to talk with her and include her in our teasing you anytime. :slight_smile:

Sure no problem. You should be able to, as DNS is just a lookup.
You just need to setup your router to push your local DNS as the main/only DNS server to your lan clients. Then your DNS server will intercept anything from your lan. DNS is just a lookup service, configure it with your external domain internally and route that to your server ip. Then just make sure that you add your isp’s dns ips as forwarding servers so that anything that doesn’t resolve locally (wan websites) get routed to the normal external dns servers.

In theory you should be able to do the same with your hosts file, but I haven’t tried that as I run a local DNS server…

I’m trying to get mine running but it keeps telling me dashboards are disabled?

Here’s what i’m running and the output:

python3 -m appdaemon.appdaemon -c /home/homeassistant/.homeassistant/appdaemon
_dashboard/appdaemon/conf/

please show your config.

Config is:

AppDaemon:
logfile: STDOUT
errorfile: STDERR
threads: 10
HASS:
ha_url: http://192.168.1.18:8123
ha_key: my_password

Apps

hello_world:
module: hello
class: HelloWorld

you need some extra parts

HADashboard:
  dash_url = http://192.168.1.18:5050

for additional options read the file DASHBOARD.md in the appdaemon directory.
