Charts on dashboard

[josecarlos]

Hi, I want to know how I have to do to put a graph to show temperature data in the panel, as a widget.

[fabaff (Fabian Affolter)]

Not possible at the moment. Some people are using the file camera platform to display graphs which were generated by a third-party tool. It’s a hack…

Wall Mounted Dashboard (now known as HADashboard)

I really love the stock HA UI for hand held devices both on tablets and phones, but as my eyes grow dim with age, I find it to be hard to get useful information from across a room, and also for some reason trying to hit the small links for scenes and scripts with my palsied trembling hands is difficult. And there is also the issue of all that bright light hurting my poor eyes at night … When I was using Smart Things for my automation, there was a community project created by a user called Flori…

Thank you very much for your answere , but it would be a interesting function for Home Assistant.

Any chance this gets added soon?

[Stewface (Stewart)]

Love the idea that would be awesome

[ReneTode]

it is possible with an addition in HADashboard V1, but that is gonna be replaced completely with HADashboard V2.
and i am glad to say that graphs are coming soon!

[nsoares (Nuno)]

Is this Graphs feature already available ?

[ReneTode]

nope.
but it will come.
dashboard V2 is running stable for a long time and i already have created several custom widgets, so graphs are now on the top of my list.

[nsoares (Nuno)]

Fantastic! Put it out there!!!

[ReneTode]

as soon as i have completely moved from appdaemon 2 to appdaemon 3.0 beta i will take time for that

Any update on graphs for HA Dashboard? The history graph is available in the home assistant GUI, so wondering why we cant have the same graph on a dashboard?

[ReneTode]

because it needs to be programmed?
because the dashboard doesnt have the same access to history as HA does?
there is a custom widget on the forum which uses influxdb

Graph widget for influxdb

I just started to publish some of my widgets. The first one is a graph widget that plots graphs of entities and uses influxdb as data source. This means that you need to have influxdb installed and configured in Home Assistant. See details here: https://www.home-assistant.io/components/influxdb/ The reason I am not reading the history from Home Assistant is that I wanted to be able to write more complex SQL queries, and using influxdb as data source is also much faster.

The Graph Widget for influxdb is really good. A little difficult to set up (especially newcomers to HA and AppDaemon like me who don’t know the directory structure for CSS and custom widget files etc…) but well worth the effort. See attached picture…it looks great! A big advantage of this approach is the graphs are superconfigurable… tjntomas has done a great job creating many configurations you can change in the dashboard yaml file. The javascript is fairly easy to follow too if you need to fine tune things (like I changed the select first(value) to an average to get an hourly average instead of the first temperature for the hour). Great job Thomas!
