Announcement: HADashboard v2 Beta!

yeah, i’ve ran into this before, guess I should have learned by now not to use it when developing/tweaking things and just use it to run completed things which its great at.

Check the perms on /home/homeassistant/appdaemon_dashboard/appdaemon/conf/compiled

AD (and the user you are running it as) will need write permissions to that directory.

I’m running it as my pi user. pi is the group and owner and the permissions on the directory are 755.

You have to give it write rights to compile and everything under it. Who owns compile directory and children.

Can anyone else verify if the navigate widget icons work properly? I have the following:

dashboard:
  widget_type: navigate
  title: Dashboard
  url: http://amazon.com
  icon: fa-home

With that I seem to get the default “cog” icon regardless of the icon setting.

I was looking for what Rene provided. I guess I worded it poorly, I wasn’t looking for an empty widget, but a way to space out the entities on each line.

Thanks @ReneTode and @aimc for the quick responses!

Great project, easy installation , no issues on ubuntu 16.
Quick question, is there support for zwave locks yet?

I don;t have one myself but I was planning on adding a lock widget in beta2 - you can test it for me :wink:

Making some progress here!! This is v2 Beta… I have a couple types that widgets don’t exist yet for so they are just filled with labels for now.

I’ll be happy to.
Thanks

Trying to configure an input_slider. It shows up and changes the slider in HA. However it doesnt show the value of the slider? is it supposed to?

Yes, in big blue numbers - I think there may be a bug in it and I have reworked it a little for beta 2, so give it another try then, although it does work fine on my system. Are you defining max, min or step for it?

Here is my HADashboard config:

basement_slider:
  widget_type: input_slider
  title: Basement Temp
  units: "°F"
  increment: "1"
  entity: input_slider.basement_thermo

here is my HA config:

input_slider:
    basement_thermo:
        name: Basement Thermo
        icon: mdi:temperature-fahrenheit
        initial: 66
        min: 55
        max: 75
        step: 1

Can you check your java console for errors please?

Where would I find that?

Modified theme here, still a work in progress…

It depends on your browser - you should be able to google it. On Chrome, it’s under thr “dotted” menu, under “more tools/Developer Tools”

Cosmetic Question:

Is it possible to use the Material Design Icon set, as well as Font Awesome?

Would it be a big change, or something I could config my way through?
