hi folks, has anybody successfully configured HADashboard to control the Nest thermostat? I would like to be able to change the temp via HADashboard. Thanks!
anybody? thanks
HADashboard v1 doesn’t have a thermostat. v2 which is just entering beta will have one soon so that would be a good place to start.
Excellent, looking forward to v2. Thanks!
Has this come to be yet? I don’t see one in the widgets set in the GitHub repo…
Thanks for the fast response!
So that was what I was actually using, but it doesn’t seem to control it - meaning that I can’t turn it up or down, nor does it show the set point. On the home assistant page I can click on it and change the temperature, while on my dashboard it shows a plus and minus, but they don’t do anything:
I am pointing to the same entity as in HA:
Is the problem because I have it set in auto mode (which works fine with HA)?
Thanks
EDIT:
when I adjust the cool temperature with HA this message is generated:

While clicking on the plus in HAD it shows:

, source=components/climate/nest.py>It looks like NEST thermostats work differently to the ZWave thermostats I wrote this widget to control - I don’t have Nest so I’m not sure how to test this …
I might try to take a look at some point if time allows, and I need to play around with the sonos as well.
There is likely an added twist with the nest because I have them in “auto” mode - they have both heating and cooling set points, so there are two different target temperatures.
I spent some time yesterday evening looking through the HADashboard Widget Development docs. I have the skills, but also too many hobbies 
so not much time

Please. This is a must for me. Thanks
