Input_text history listed in a lovelace card

Configuration Frontend
1

Is there a card that can take a input_text history and LIST in lovelace?
The history graph card is not ideal to show each change.

input_text.notified_text

20:16 This happen
20:17 Then then that happen
20:19 Trash was put out

And be able to choose how many are shown at a time. Plus last entry at the top of the list?

Simalar to:

The Last Automations Ran

**Time     Name** 
{% for state in (states.automation
  | selectattr('attributes.last_triggered')
  | sort(attribute='attributes.last_triggered', reverse=true)) [0:40] -%}
  {% if (now() - state.attributes.last_triggered).total_seconds() < 86400 %}
    {%- set t = (as_timestamp(state.attributes.last_triggered) | timestamp_custom('%H:%M', True)) -%}
    {{t}} &nbsp;&nbsp; _{{state.name}}_
  {% endif -%}
{% endfor %}

20:19 Ac Ontime West Minute Counter
20:19 Last Move Liv Rad

I’d love to show a list of the changes to a input_text. entity.

Thank you, Technically that’s what I asked for.
Unfortunately I don’t see any filters to clean it all up and just show the text entry.
The Logbook Card has tons of repeat info.

20:16 This is my text now
20:17 Then this was it
20:19 The text before

No Time stamp would even be better.

  • This is my text now
  • Then this was it
  • The text before

Thanks again !!

Somehow I knew you would recommend the Home Feed Card. For me, in the last year that card is by far the most unreliable. Always missing the labels until I refresh a bunch of times or navigate in and out of the page a few times on any and all of my devices. android, google hub, edge, firefox, apple phones and tablets. No name: / Label

custom


type: custom:home-feed-card
title: null
show_empty: false
scrollbars_enabled: false
max_item_count: 6
entities:
  - entity: binary_sensor.ent_wall_pir
    icon: mdi:radiobox-blank
    name: ThisNameMostlyNeverShowsUp

Any Suggestions?

Thanks for your help!!

I found this thread searching for the same answer as OP, I wanted a history of a input_text’s value in a card without erroneous metadata.
I realise the thread is quite old but here’s the solution I found:

It’s similar to the out of the box logbook card listed by tom_l but gives more customisation with the UI to show/hide elements that I think OP was asking for, meaning you can get a clean output of just the text value with or without timestamps & durations.
