Hadashboard V2 Competition

Sorry (for you), but this does make me feel a bit better. At least it’s not just me.

Facing the same problems but if u don’t :fire: 10 commands in 10 seconds it runs well for me

i guess that its just something i got used to.
cheaper product needs to be handled with gloves. if you dont stress it to much it works like a charm. (like any female :stuck_out_tongue: )

Awesome Theme, when will you publish it? :slight_smile:

after two day and trying to use cgi command it didnt react … i restarted appdaemon and it arted to work again … i might need to restart appdaemon daily ?

it runs all the time here (days after another)
might be helpfull to check your logfiles if something went wrong.

I think u mean appdaemon logfiles? Will check this in 3 days

I’m trying to make skins work, but nothing happens. I’ve placed hygge-skin in: /home/pi/appdaemon_dashboard/appdaemon/conf/custom_css

Isn’t this the correct directory? Do I have to do anything else? I’ve tried rebooting.

HAdashboard works fine without skin, but http://IP:3030/main?skin=hygge just shows the regular dash.

What am I doing wrong?

did u put it into a folder ? show me ls -l /home/pi/appdaemon_dashboard/appdaemon/conf/custom_css

the skin should be in a subdir (if you havent that already)

so the files (variables.yaml and dashboard.css) must be in:

/home/pi/appdaemon_dashboard/appdaemon/conf/custom_css/hygge

Thanks for fast replies!

Here’s the dirs:

pi@raspberrypi:~/appdaemon_dashboard/appdaemon/conf/custom_css $ ls -l /home/pi/appdaemon_dashboard/appdaemon/conf/custom_css
total 4
drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 May 29 11:58 hygge
pi@raspberrypi:~/appdaemon_dashboard/appdaemon/conf/custom_css $ ls -l /home/pi/appdaemon_dashboard/appdaemon/conf/custom_css/hygge
total 28
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 2974 May 29 11:58 dashboard.css
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 May 29 11:58 img
-rw-r–r-- 1 root root 1071 May 29 11:58 LICENSE
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1987 May 29 11:58 README.md
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 8586 May 29 11:58 variables.yaml
pi@raspberrypi:~/appdaemon_dashboard/appdaemon/conf/custom_css $

this is very hard to read.
next time please post it as codeblock.

but i think your problem is filerights.

you run appdaemon as user pi (unless you use sudo)
the filerights are for root.

i dont know any commandlines for that, but i use winscp to set the filerights.

like "sudo chown -R pi:pi /home/pi/appdaemon_dashboard/

Used thundergreen’s command line and now pi is the owner… Rebooted… No luck. I still get the “normal” skin when using http://IP:3030/main?skin=hygge.

This is just suppouse to work? No alterations to any conf files needed?

if all other settings are standard, then this should work.

but i think i see where your problem is.
do you use HAdashboard V1 (the one on the homeassistant site)?
that dashboard cant work with skins.

i ask that because you use port 3030 which was for the old dashboard and the new uses standard 5050.

Nice catch, Rene.

That might be… how do I check which version I’m on? I’ve tried git pull origin like it said to update and get “Already up-to-date”. See below…

pi@raspberrypi:~/appdaemon_dashboard/appdaemon $ git pull origin
remote: Counting objects: 41, done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (13/13), done.
remote: Total 41 (delta 28), reused 41 (delta 28), pack-reused 0
Unpacking objects: 100% (41/41), done.
From https://github.com/acockburn/appdaemon
   9feb3f9..3fc2dc0  appdash    -> origin/appdash
Already up-to-date.

pi@raspberrypi:~/hadashboard $ git pull origin
Already up-to-date.

I’m suppouse to install the V1 first and then update?

HADash is a separate thing entirely - it uses a version of AppDaemon as it’s base as opposed to the old framework.

You install it as a seperate program and then shutdown the old V1 dash.

The HISTORY.md file in the /appdaemon_dashboard/appdaemon directory should tell you what version you are on.

what you have is appdaemon. whit git pull origin you pull the original appdaemon.
see the place where you pull it from:

that doesnt contain Dashboard at all.
and you installed the dashboard V1 seperately.

if you want to have the dashboard V2 you need to read this topic for instructions:

but you need to create completely new dashboards or a different (more easy) way

There you go! Thanks guys. I don’t know where I went wrong, thought I was following those instructions when I installed. Now skins work!
Thanks for being patient :smiley:
