Hi,
I’m splitting my configuration into mutiple file/card so it’s easier to share my custom dashboard with people.
But I can’t find a way to pass an entity through different file.
Here a sample of code of what I would like to do
FileA.yaml
views:
- type: custom:grid-layout
title: home
cards:
- type: custom:mod-card
variables:
climate_entity = climate.entity
card: !include FileB.yaml
FileB.yaml
type: custom:button-card
entity: variables.climate_entity
so when someone want to duplicate my dashboard, he just have to change the entity(climate_entity) in FileA and if I update the code in FileB the user is not impacted.
Here is a list of things I tried:
- &anchor = work only into one file
- using template to reference the information = become really complexe for entity like climate or weather
- custom: button-card = can’t pass an entity as variable
- input_text
Any idea is more than welcome.
