🔹 Card-mod - Add css styles to any lovelace card

ASNNetworks · April 7, 2021, 1:01pm

One thing I remembered: with card-mod 3.0 the syntax has changed. While the old syntax still works like Thomas mentioned in the changelog, I now wonder if using the old syntax could somehow cause a performance hit.

Old:

style:
  ... stuff here ...

New:

card_mod:
  style:
    ... stuff here ...

Since I use the old syntax, I figured maybe this can cause this. If it’s unknown, I’ll re-create a dashboard with some elements using the new syntax and load 3.0. And then compare that with old syntax on 3.0 and use the performance tab. A lot of people still use the old syntax, so I find it odd no-one else has mentioned or experienced this performance hit.

But could be I’m way off and the syntax has no influence (I’m not experienced enough to make that assumption). I want to prevent wasting a lot of time in testing stuff that has no effect ofcourse.

I gonna ask some probably silly questions (sorry for broken English).

I have HA on RPi 3 (docker).
My HA setup includes 3 dashboards (for HA itself, for testing things, for testing card-mod), each dashboard includes lots (~10…20) of views.
This is all edited in UI, not in yaml files (I know nothing about yaml-mode, it is in my plans).
And I use an old card-mod syntax in most cases (99%).

Every time when I work with Inspector (Chrome, Win10x64) with views with card-mod, I observe a high CPU load on my PC (~40% load for Chrome).
Sometimes I have to restart Chrome since it becomes too slow.
When I do not use Inspector - it works quite fine.
And I usually use Inspector only for testing card-mod.
Q1: Is it normal for Chrome to become so slow when using an Inspector?
If not - should I change something in Chrome’s settings?

Also, as I understand, a code for some particular view works only when I open this view in my browser.
And some part of this code works on RPi, some part - on my PC.
That means that I can have lots of views in my HA setup, and it will not make my HA slower - unless I open some very complex view. But - this is just my opinion, my knowledge about HA internal structure is very poor.
Q2: Since I have a separate dashboard with ~20 views for testing card-mod - may it slow down my HA when I do not open this dashboard?

Meanwhile - a small Animation for bar-card:

The progress is moving if the battery is charging.

type: 'custom:bar-card'
title: animation
columns: 1
entities:
  - entity: sensor.battery_life360_ildar_iphone_5s
    direction: right

style: |
  bar-card-row bar-card-card bar-card-background bar-card-targetbar {
    {% if is_state('binary_sensor.battery_charging_life360_ildar_iphone_5s','on') %}
    animation: filling 5s linear infinite;
    {% endif %}
    --bar-percent: 0 !important;
  }
  @keyframes filling {
    0% {
      --bar-target-percent: 0;
    }
    10% {
      --bar-target-percent: 10%;
    }
    20% {
      --bar-target-percent: 20%;
    }
    30% {
      --bar-target-percent: 30%;
    }
    40% {
      --bar-target-percent: 40%;
    }
    50% {
      --bar-target-percent: 50%;
    }
    60% {
      --bar-target-percent: 60%;
    }
    70% {
      --bar-target-percent: 70%;
    }
    80% {
      --bar-target-percent: 80%;
    }
    90% {
      --bar-target-percent: 90%;
    }
    100% {
      --bar-target-percent: 100%;
    }
  }
  bar-card-row bar-card-card bar-card-background bar-card-markerbar {
    display: none;
  }

More examples are described here.

Hi Guys,

I wonder if you can help me I am in the process of setting up my card for my air fresheners im 90% there but I can’t seem to figure out how to style the text input highlighted below:

using the following I have been able to change the font size:

--paper-input-container-shared-input-style_-_font-size: 12px;

but I can’t work out how to change the colour and justify the text to the right hand side. Any ideas?

You’ll probably need to shadow-root into it.

Styling an "input-text" row inside the Entities card:

Update (21.06.22): the post is updated with styles for MDC controls; old styles (see at the bottom of the post) do not work since 2022.3.

Colored name:
Two methods are available:
– using a CSS variable;
– using a CSS property with a detailed DOM navigation.

Notes:
1.The 1st method - the name’s color changes if an input field is selected (from " --mdc-text-field-label-ink-color" to “--mdc-theme-primary”).
2.The 2nd method - allows to change a color permanently (whether the input field is selected or not).

code

          - entity: input_text.test_text
            name: Colored name (method 1)
            card_mod: &ref_card_mod_red_text_host
              style: |
                :host {
                  --mdc-text-field-label-ink-color: red;
                }
          - entity: input_text.test_text
            name: Colored name (method 2)
            card_mod: &ref_card_mod_red_text_dom
              style:
                ha-textfield $: |
                  span#label {
                    color: red;
                  }
          - entity: input_text.test_text
            name: default

How to style several rows:

Note that a common style may be overwritten for some particular entity.

code

      - type: entities
        title: Colored name for all entities
        card_mod:
          style:
            .card-content:
              div:
                hui-input-text-entity-row $ hui-generic-entity-row ha-textfield $: |
                  span#label {
                    color: orange;
                  }
        entities:
          - entity: input_text.test_text
            name: Cannot be overwritten
            card_mod:
              style: |
                :host {
                  --mdc-text-field-label-ink-color: red !important;
                }
          - entity: input_text.test_text
            name: Overwritten style
            card_mod: &ref_card_mod_overwritten_text
              style:
                ha-textfield $: |
                  span#label {
                    color: red !important;
                  }
          - entity: input_text.test_text
            name: Colored name (common)

Colored icon:
Two methods are available:
– using a CSS variable;
– using a CSS property with a detailed DOM navigation.

code

      - type: entities
        title: Colored icon for some entity
        entities:
          - entity: input_text.test_text
            name: 'Colored icon (method #1)'
            card_mod:
              style: |
                :host {
                  --paper-item-icon-color: red;
                }
          - entity: input_text.test_text
            name: 'Colored icon (method #2)'
            card_mod:
              style:
                hui-generic-entity-row $: |
                  state-badge {
                    color: red;
                  }      
          - entity: input_text.test_text
            name: default

How to style several rows:

Note that a common style may be overwritten for some particular entity.

code

            ha-card {
              --paper-item-icon-color: cyan;
            }
        entities:
          - entity: input_text.test_text
            name: Overwritten color
            secondary_info: last-changed
            card_mod:
              style: |
                :host {
                  --paper-item-icon-color: red;
                }
          - entity: input_text.test_text
            name: Colored icon (common)
          - entity: input_text.test_text
            name: Colored icon (common)

Some other styles for an icon - resized icon, hidden icon:

code

      - type: entities
        title: Other styles for icon
        entities:
          - entity: input_text.test_text
            name: resized icon
            card_mod:
              style: |
                :host {
                  --mdc-icon-size: 40px;
                }
          - entity: input_text.test_text
            name: hidden icon
            card_mod:
              style:
                hui-generic-entity-row $: |
                  state-badge {
                    display: none;
                  }

Colored value:
Two methods are available:
– using a CSS variable;
– using a CSS property with a detailed DOM navigation.

code

      - type: entities
        title: Colored value
        entities:
          - entity: input_text.test_text
            name: colored value (method 1)
            card_mod:
              style: |
                :host {
                  --mdc-text-field-ink-color: red;
                }
          - entity: input_text.test_text
            name: colored value (method 2)
            card_mod:
              style:
                ha-textfield $: |
                  .mdc-text-field__input {
                    color: red !important;
                  }
          - entity: input_text.test_text
            name: default

Colored field’s background:

code

      - type: entities
        title: Colored background
        entities:
          - entity: input_text.test_text
            name: colored background
            card_mod:
              style: |
                :host {
                  --mdc-text-field-fill-color: lightgreen;
                }
          - entity: input_text.test_text
            name: default

Colored underline:
The underline had 3 possible states:
– a default (static) state;
– the input field is hovered by a mouse;
– the input field is selected by a mouse.

There are CSS variables for each state.
In the example below:
– the 1st row is modded by using these CSS variables;
– the 2nd row is modded by changing CSS properties with a detailed DOM navigation;
– the 3rd row has transparent underlines.

                :host {
                  --mdc-text-field-idle-line-color: red;
                  --mdc-text-field-hover-line-color: cyan;
                  --mdc-theme-primary: magenta;
                }
          - entity: input_text.test_text
            name: colored underline (method 2)
            card_mod:
              style:
                ha-textfield $: |
                  .mdc-line-ripple::before {
                    border-bottom-color: orange !important;
                  }
                  .mdc-line-ripple::after {
                    border-bottom-color: magenta !important;
                  }
          - entity: input_text.test_text
            name: no underline
            card_mod:
              style:
                ha-textfield $: |
                  .mdc-line-ripple::before,
                  .mdc-line-ripple::after {
                    border-bottom-style: none !important;
                  }
          - entity: input_text.test_text
            name: default

Making the name hidden or more compact:
Since the row has a bigger height than other entity rows, we may want to make a row more compact.
First, we need to customize the row’s height.
Next, there are 2 options for a name & a value:
– remove the name;
– place the name and the value closer to each other.

code

  - type: entities
    title: Hidden/compact name
    entities:
      - entity: input_text.test_text
        name: custom
        card_mod:
          style:
            ha-textfield $: |
              .mdc-text-field {
                height: 40px !important;
              }
              .mdc-text-field__input {
                align-self: center;
              }
              span#label {
                display: none;
              }
            .: |
              ha-textfield {
                height: 40px;
              }
      - entity: input_text.test_text
        name: custom
        card_mod:
          style:
            ha-textfield $: |
              .mdc-text-field {
                height: 40px !important;
              }
              .mdc-text-field__input {
                align-self: end;
              }
            .: |
              ha-textfield {
                height: 40px;
              }
      - entity: input_text.test_text
        name: default

How to disable an input_text row:
Two methods are available:
– the row is displayed as disabled;
– the row only has a read-only input field.

code

  - type: entities
    title: Locked input_text
    entities:
      - entity: input_boolean.test_boolean
        name: Lock input_text
      - entity: input_text.test_text
        name: disabled
        tap_action:
          action: none
        card_mod:
          style: |
            :host {
              {% if is_state('input_boolean.test_boolean','on') %}
                --mdc-text-field-ink-color: var(--disabled-text-color);
                --mdc-text-field-label-ink-color: var(--disabled-text-color);
                --mdc-text-field-idle-line-color: var(--disabled-text-color);
                --paper-item-icon-color: var(--disabled-text-color);
                pointer-events: none;
              {% endif %}
            }
      - entity: input_text.test_text
        name: read-only
        tap_action:
          action: none
        card_mod:
          style: |
            :host {
              {% if is_state('input_boolean.test_boolean','on') %}
                pointer-events: none;
              {% endif %}
            }

            pointer-events: none;
          {% endif %}
        }

Also, you may remove color options to make the row clearly visible but “read-only”.

Thank you so much, was really pulling my hair out over this one.

DaveInPA · April 9, 2021, 3:26pm

I’m super noob but simply want to reduce the size of the fonts in my card. Have it working in some cards but can’t see to get it working in this horizontal card. In my codef i’m just applying it for now in 2 of the cards in the stack. I’d also like to control the font size of the horizontal stack card itself (the title).

Appreciate any help to get me started…

type: horizontal-stack
title: Living Room
cards:
  - type: button
    tap_action:
      action: toggle
    entity: scene.living_room_hang

    name: Fireplace
    card_mod:
      style: |
        ha-card {

        }

DaveInPA · April 9, 2021, 7:51pm

Thanks! I tried all kinds of combinations but can’t seem to get it formatted or added to my code properly.

So does this “custom:mod-card” type snippet go at the top of the card before my horizontal stack code?

In meantime i’ll spend more time understanding how the custom:mod-card fits into all of this…

maxym · April 9, 2021, 8:00pm

card mod is extention to existing cards. it allows to style html entities inside the card. you use it by adding style attribute to every card definition.

However sometimes card-mod cannot reach some outer html objects (styling allows to apply styles to children items while some cards has outer objects unavailable to card-mod). mod-card creates a container with your card inside. This way your whole card turns into mod-card’s child element, allowing to style it from mod-card level

Ildar_Gabdullin · April 10, 2021, 10:16am

Some examples of using "::before", "::after" & "content":
Note: may be used with many Lovelace cards (I hope).

NOTE:
Do not forget to add a "card_mod:" keyword before "style:" (new in card-mod 3).

Prefix & suffix:

type: entities
entities:
  - entity: sun.sun
  - entity: sun.sun
    style:
      hui-generic-entity-row $: |
        .text-content.pointer:not(.info) {
          color: red;
        }
        .text-content.pointer:not(.info)::before {
          content: "XXX - ";
          color: magenta;
        }
        .text-content.pointer:not(.info)::after {
          content: " (elevation {{state_attr(config.entity,'elevation')}})";
          color: orange;
        }
  - entity: sensor.iphone_5s_battery_level
    style:
      hui-generic-entity-row: |
        .text-content {
          color: red;
        }
        .text-content::before {
          content: "Level: ";
          color: red;
        }
        .text-content::after {
          content: " ({{states('sensor.iphone_5s_battery_state')}})";
          color: magenta;
        }

+ undocumented feature for "secondary_info":

type: entities
entities:
  - entity: sun.sun
    secondary_info: true
    style:
      hui-generic-entity-row:
        $: |
          .info .secondary {
            color: red;
          }
          .info .secondary::before {
            content: "Elevation: ";
            color: red;
          }
          .info .secondary::after {
            content: "{{state_attr(config.entity,'elevation')}}";
            color: magenta;
          }

“Undocumented” means that you can use also "secondary_info: bla_bla_bla" instead of "secondary_info: true", it will create a "div" element anyway.

Math operations:

type: entities
entities:
  - entity: sensor.cleargrass_1_co2
    style:
      hui-generic-entity-row: |
        .text-content {
          color: red;
        }
        .text-content::before {
          content: "{{states(config.entity)|int/10}} (divided), ";
          color: magenta;
        }

Replacing a value:

For the Entities card it is enough to set a transparent color for the element keeping the state:

type: entities
entities:
  - entity: sensor.network_throughput_in_eth0_mbits
    name: Network throughput
  - entity: sensor.network_throughput_in_eth0_mbits
    name: Network throughput
    style:
      hui-generic-entity-row: |
        .text-content::after {
          content: "{{states(config.entity)|float*1024}} KBit/s";
          color: var(--primary-text-color);
        }
        .text-content {
          color: transparent;
        }

But for the Glance card I have to set a zero font-size:

type: glance
entities:
  - entity: sensor.network_throughput_in_eth0_mbits
    name: Network throughput
  - entity: sensor.network_throughput_in_eth0_mbits
    name: Network throughput
    style: |
      :host div:not(.name)::after {
        content: "{{states(config.entity)|float*1024}} KBit/s";
        font-size: var(--mdc-typography-body1-font-size, 1rem);
      }
      :host div:not(.name) {
        font-size: 0px;
      }

One more example for “input_boolean” entity:

type: glance
entities:
  - entity: input_boolean.test_boolean
    name: default
  - entity: input_boolean.test_boolean
    name: modded
    style: |
      :host div:not(.name)::after {
        content: "{% if is_state(config.entity,'on') -%}
                  switched ON
                  {%- else -%}
                  switched OFF
                  {%- endif %}";
        font-size: var(--mdc-typography-body1-font-size, 1rem);
      }
      :host div:not(.name) {
        font-size: 0px;
      }

For "multiple-entity-row" it is much tricky:

The original value must be transparent & placed on the next line whose height must be set to 0px:

type: entities
entities:
  - type: 'custom:multiple-entity-row'
    style: |
      .entities-row div.entity:nth-child(1) div::before {
        color: orange;
        content: {%if is_state('sun.sun','above_horizon') -%} "Rise and shine\A" {%- else -%} "Sleep well\A" {%- endif %};
        line-height: var(--mdc-typography-body1-line-height, 1.5rem);
      }
      .entities-row div.entity:nth-child(1) div {
        color: transparent;
        line-height: 0px;
      }
    entity: sun.sun
    entities:
      - entity: sun.sun
        name: xxx
        styles:
          width: 60px
      - entity: sun.sun
        name: xxx
        styles:
          width: 60px
    unit: ''
    icon: ''
    toggle: false
    show_state: false
    state_header: ''
    state_color: false

For badges inside "picture-elements" card:
This trick may be useful since there is no possibility to display any text for the entity’s name (BTW, for badges displayed on the top of views this possibility is present - a “name” property).

type: picture-elements
image: /local/images/blue.jpg
style: |
  ha-card { height: 130px !important; }
elements:
  - type: state-badge
    entity: sensor.cleargrass_1_co2
    style:
      top: 18%
      left: 10%
  - type: state-badge
    entity: sensor.cleargrass_1_co2
    style:
      top: 18%
      left: 30%
    card_mod:
      style:
        ha-state-label-badge:
          $:
            ha-label-badge:
              $:
                .badge-container: |
                  .title {
                    color: transparent;
                    line-height: 0px !important;
                  }
                  .title::before {
                    color: var(--primary-text-color);
                    content: "New name\A";
                    line-height: normal;
                  }

I’m trying to use style my markdown-card with the help of card-mod.
But whatever I am trying, nothing wil change the format of the markdown-card.
What am I doing wrong?

      - type: markdown
        style: |
          ha-card {
            font-size: 20px;
            font-family: Quicksand;
            height: 30px;
            background: none;
          }
          ha-markdown {
            padding: 0px 0px 0px 8px !important;
            border-left: 3px solid var(--accent-color);
          }

You need to shadow-root for that, I think.

Klex1404 · April 13, 2021, 6:37pm

How would I do that?
Nothing is working. Is the markdown card even stylable?

Ildar_Gabdullin · April 13, 2021, 6:39pm

This is what I got with your code:

Is it what you expect?
If yes - may be you do not have card-mod installed.
If no - what is wrong?

Klex1404 · April 14, 2021, 7:41pm

It is working now, thanks.
The verification of the code helped me to look elsewhere.
It seemed there was issue with my hacs key for github.
Thanks for your help.

An example of using "card-mod" for "multiple-entity-row" to display a "last-changed" for items:

Described here

Same method may be used to display ANY text below items.
Even for icons:

code

      - type: custom:multiple-entity-row
        entity: sun.sun
        show_state: false
        entities:
          - entity: sun.sun
            icon: true
            name: false
          - entity: sun.sun
            icon: true
            name: false
          - entity: sun.sun
            icon: true
            name: false
        card_mod:
