I would like to use this card with template with the custom button-card. but really donāt know how to do it (i saw several examples about it in this thread, but without success).
Can somebody helps me?
type: custom:auto-entities
show_empty: false
card:
type: entities
filter:
template: |-
{{ states.light | selectattr('state', 'eq', 'on') |
map(attribute='entity_id') | list
}}
else:
type: markdown
content: all lights off
this is the basic format of doing something like that, you need to set the card_param
- type: custom:auto-entities
card:
type: grid
title: Threshold buttons battery template
columns: 4
card_param: cards
filter:
template: >-
[{% set threshold = states('input_number.battery_alert_level')|float(0) -%} {%-
for s in states.sensor|selectattr('entity_id','search','battery_level')
if s.state|float(0) > threshold -%}
{{
{
'type': 'custom:button-card',
'entity': s.entity_id
}
}},
{%- endfor %}]
sort:
method: state
numeric: true
bottom line: you need to add the card_type settings inside the template
of course, always check the documentation Template filters Ā· thomasloven/lovelace-auto-entities Wiki Ā· GitHub which has a nice example too
I used the same code, but recently it stopped working, the background color and font color do not change, is it the same for you?
Itās still working fine for me.
Is there a way to use auto-entities with the new badges? I doubt it but just asking in case anyone found out a way.
ā-No way āā
I would like to have a list of unavailable entities with a heading. Then hide the whole card, including heading, when empty. I canāt seem to get it quite right.
This shows and hides the heading correctly (tested with filters I know are empty), but for some reason no entities appear when there should be results:
type: custom:auto-entities
card:
type: vertical-stack
cards:
- type: heading
heading: test
icon: mdi:fridge
heading_style: title
filter:
include:
- attributes:
device_class: battery
state: unavailable
options:
type: tile
card_param: cards
show_empty: false
This shows the entities and the heading correctly, but when empty still shows the heading:
type: custom:auto-entities
card:
type: vertical-stack
filter:
include:
- type: heading
heading: test
icon: mdi:fridge
heading_style: title
- attributes:
device_class: battery
state: unavailable
options:
type: tile
card_param: cards
show_empty: false
Anyone have any ideas?
The code is wrong, you cannot merge 2 lists:
If you need to create a list of cards containing a FIXED card + DYNAMIC cards - you need to add that fixed card inside the āfilterā like here:
type: custom:auto-entities
card:
type: vertical-stack
filter:
include:
- domain: sun
options:
type: heading
heading: test
icon: mdi:fridge
heading_style: title
- attributes:
device_class: battery
state: unavailable
options:
type: tile
card_param: cards
show_empty: false
Thanks for the speedy reply.
I still have the heading when the filter is empty. Is there anyway to hide the heading card when my filter returns no results?
What do I need to add to make the card show entities from the group that ālast changedā within the last 3 minutes? ā¦ and show the last change time?
type: custom:auto-entities
card:
type: entities
title: All Indoor Motion Sensors
filter:
template: >
{{ expand('binary_sensor.motion_all_inside')| map(attribute='entity_id')|
list }}
thx!
For this you will have to use a ātemplateā option and compose a list of cards MANUALLY dependently on a presence of required entities.
I mostly follow, I thinkā¦ Using your example I changed Entity to ābinary_sensor.motion_all_insideā and adding a line to pull in āstate.last_changedā attribute.
but it doesnt workā¦ is this pulling all entities out of the Group? (like Expand does?)
When I put in the code in the card it says it saves but it doesnt - its empty. Asks me for a new selection when I edit it again.
I tried your exact template, just changed the Entity to the group entity Iām usingā¦
type: custom:auto-entities
show_empty: false
card:
type: entities
filter:
template: >-
{% set ns = namespace(entity_and_area=[]) -%}
{%- for entity in binary_sensor.motion_all_inside -%}
{%- set entity_id = entity.entity_id -%}
{%- set area = area_name(entity.entity_id) -%}
{%- set entity_and_area = ({'entity_id':entity_id,'area':area}) -%}
{%- set ns.entity_and_area = ns.entity_and_area + [entity_and_area] -%}
{%- set last_changed = state.last_changed(entity.entity_id) -%}
{%- endfor -%}
{%- set sorted_list = (ns.entity_and_area) | rejectattr('area','eq',none) | sort(attribute='area') -%}
{{ sorted_list | map(attribute='entity_id') | list }}
Is it possible to hide the auto-entities card when there are no visible entities (they are excluded)?
show_empty:
Default is true.
Has anybody got some examples to get me on my way with filling a auto-entities with data from a ToDo List (To-do list - Home Assistant)
I have no experience in using the template function with a action call to import the data into the auto entities. Is it even possible?
Iāve just spent some time creating a list of the firmware versions of all my Shelly devices. So I thought it was worth sharing.
The key thing is the line 9ff (āoptionsā).
See š¹ Auto-entities - Automatically fill cards with entities - #164 by thomasloven
type: custom:auto-entities
card:
title: Shelly Firmware Versions
type: entities
filter:
include:
- integration: shelly
entity_id: "*firmware*"
options:

attribute: installed_version
exclude:

method: attribute

I have my list displaying the correct entity ids as the heading using this.entity_id but am trying to figure out how to instead display the device name (in lieu of the entity id) in the following code. Any ideas?
- type: custom:auto-entities
card:
type: grid
columns: 1
square: false
card_param: cards
filter:
include:
- area: Attic
entity_id: sensor.*temperature_measurement*
options:
type: heading
heading_style: subtitle
heading: this.entity_id
You may get a device name from some entity_id only by using jinja.
