Yes, you need hacs (installation guide here: https://hacs.xyz) and than you just need to search for this in the Frontend section in hacs. It should show up pretty high with the name “Dark Thermostat”
Thanks @ciolosm. I have installed HACS though am seeing a message that HACS is waiting for HA. Is this normal? Also the side bar icon hasn’t seemed to attach:
UPDATE
Ignore, I have just read that it can take up to 1 hour for HACS to fully finish the start up process.
@ciotlosm I must be missing something here as HACS only seems to work for Frontend. I get no where with the Interactions. Am I missing something?
When I click on repository it takes me to Github integration (https://github.com/hacs/integration)
What happens if you click the tabs on top?
Explore & Add Repositories (lower right)?
But Dark Thermostat is Frontend, not Integration…
Once added you will see an entry in Config, Lovelace, Resources…
LOL! We all have those!
FYI: In the future just reboot your system and HACS comes right up…
Hello
Is there a simple way to change the colors ? Or this will be added in the future ?
In a clear background the black when idle is not so fun !!
Patou
Hi guys,
i want to control my devolo z-wave thermostat. All works find bit after setting my temp it blacks out until i click it again for setting a temp. Any way to let the number displaying all the time?
Thank you!
Have some issues whith coloring. My thermostat has 3 hvac_action: off, idle, heat
I’d like to have the following coloring:
- Dark when hvac_action is “off”
- Blue when hvac_action is “idle”
- Orange when hvac_action is “heat”
But I have dark when the hvac_action is “off” or either “idle” and orange when it is “heat”
What I do wrong? My code:
type: 'custom:thermostat-dark-card'
title: Bedroom
entity: climate.nappali_thermostat
chevron_size: '100'
step: '0.5'
pending: '2'
idle_zone: '2'
highlight_tap: true
hvac:
states:
'Off': 'off'
Cooling: idle
Heating: heat
attribute: hvac_action
name: Nappali

Hello. How do you change from the visual interface the value 19 and 22? Thanks
Hello everyone. I am wanting to change the orange and light blue color that it shows according to the state. Is this where I should change the colors? Thank you very much
.dial {
user-select: none;
--thermostat-off-fill: #555;
--thermostat-idle-fill: #222;
--thermostat-path-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.3);
//--thermostat-heating-fill: #e36304;
--thermostat-heating-fill: #555;
//--thermostat-cooling-fill: #444;
--thermostat-cooling-fill: #555;
--thermostat-path-active-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.8);
--thermostat-path-active-color-large: rgba(255, 255, 255, 1);
--thermostat-text-color: white;
--thermostat-toggle-color: grey;
--thermostat-toggle-off-color: darkgrey;
--thermostat-toggle-on-color: lightgrey;
}
For me the colors dont even work. The heating states are the states of the climate entity. They are not mapped to an attribute.
So what is the correct way to solve this? I could manage a template sensor for the state. But I think thats overkill. Is there a way to make the card look for the state instead for an attribute?
I’m having trouble with this card. I have Mysa smart thermostats (for electric baseboard heaters). They expose a climate entity through Home Kit. The problem I have is when toggling the state of the thermostat. When the thermostat is in heating mode, I then click the ‘power’ button at the bottom it turns off the thermostat as expected. However when I press the ‘power’ button again it does not turn the heater back on. I do not have this issue with the built in thermostat card.
I have tried using the custom hvac states in the documentation however that doesn’t work either. My only guess is that these thermostats only control a heater however the climate entity has all four states; ‘heat’, ‘cool’, ‘heat_cool’, ‘off’ even though only ‘heat’ and ‘off’ mean anything to the thermostat.
It looks like this project hasn’t had any activity in a few years, is there possibly another fork of this card that has been improved on? Thanks!
Is it possible to install this in the docker version ?
