Hadashboard V2 Competition

i decided not to recreate the skin, but to tell you how you can make it yourself. first in your appdaemon basedirectory find the directory appdaemon/assets/css copy the directory default and give it the name you want your new skin to have in the new made directory create a directory with the name img find any jpg file you like as your background (google?) and copy it to the img directory in your skin directory find the file named.variables.yaml change the line background_style: "background-co…

i think its the place where you did place the directory
the dir conf is no base dir from the server. assets is the base dir.

Hey Bit-River,
Which weather component are you using? I have been looking around for something like that.

Question: If I have a skin with a fixed image as a background, ie a link to a file on the HASS machine, what happens if another script (eg one that obtained a new image from somewhere) changed that image, ie put a new image there with the same filename. Would the background change automagically in the dashboard, or is some sort of reload needed?

No, you would either need to force a reload in the browser, or have some Javascript running to pick up the new file and apply it - wouldn’t be hard to do though.

You can do this by adding a meta refresh tag in the head includes section in variables.yaml for the skin.

Are you thinking the JS should always be recompiled and force or recompile should then only act on the CSS?

I was thinking it could be a separate flag. dash_force_compile = 1 would force everything, dash_force_compile = 2 would do just the JS. But I am sure that @aimc has a better idea. Maybe even to move the force compile argument to the dash level.

That’s the weather widget built into Dash.

Looks like he has modded it a bit though …

In honor of the new Beta 2 Thread

I am closing this thread - we can continue discussions in the new thread.

Yes, it looks like he removed the rain and humidity and changed the title on Apparent Temp.
