Hello everyone,
I’m excited to introduce my new custom integration “Gramps Web for Home Assistant” ! It allows you to bring your genealogical data from Gramps Web directly into Home Assistant — and it also includes a dedicated dashboard integration that displays upcoming family events in a clean, ready‑to‑use UI. You can find the dashboard project here: 
GitHub - EdgarM73/gramps-dashboard-ha: Dashboard template for the gramps-ha integration
This makes it easy to keep track of birthdays, death anniversaries, and jubilees right from your Home Assistant dashboards.
Features
Sensors for upcoming birthdays, death anniversaries, and jubilees
Image entities for individuals (enabled by default starting with version 2026.01.01)
Link entities pointing directly to the corresponding person in Gramps Web
Simple configuration through the Home Assistant UI
Authentication using username and password
Configurable number of displayed events
Perfect for dashboards, reminders, and automations related to your family history.
