Not sure if this is possible with HA, but since everything is possible, let’s give it a try!
I want to set a date range in HA frontend, so I need some input button which allows me to enter a date.
The application is as follows: I have a Raspberry Pi digital picture frame which is connected to Home Assistant via MQTT to turn it off and on and to exchange some data (https://www.thedigitalpictureframe.com/control-your-digital-picture-frame-with-home-assistents-wifi-presence-detection-and-mqtt/). Now I want to extend the functionality to include a filter which would specify the date range for pictures that are shown. This would require me to input the values in HA somehow. I know how to pass them on, convert and whatever to my picture frame but I have no idea how to enter a date in Lovelace frontend. Any ideas, tipps that can get me started on the right track?
Hi Nick, great plugins, by the way! Anybody out there who doesn’t use at least one of those?
What I am trying to do is to have an input panel that allows me to enter a date range in the HA frontend. A bit like the alarm panel where you enter digits.
