You need to create it as a package. See the these docs on how to setup packages
Thanks for the reply!
So to elaborate a little, I have a single packages folder as per the docs already
(packages: !include_dir_named packages) as I am currently using a few packages… Do i just copy the yaml’s from “garden_v2” to the packages folders?
OR
Do I have to have the packages subfolder setup
( packages: !include_dir_merge_named packages/), and copy the folder “garden_v2” to the packages folder?
Thanks in advance
Sorry, just saw it was answered higher up 
@klogg: you did an amazing work on this - much appreciated! Since days I am fiddling around to get it working, and localized it to German. Still some grey hairs not being able to set the name of irrigation cycle 3 though. Cycles 1-2 have a starttime which also acts as a button to set the name of the cycle. Cycle 3 does not have it… how would I set it?
Any hints on how to do it would be great!
Excellent point!!
That is a complete oversight on my part, sorry. I will make some changes later today. In the meantime the cycle name is stored in input_text.irrigation_cycle3_name so you can just change it through the Dev Tools, States page.
I plan to upload an amended version today. It is mostly containing a few small cosmetic tweaks and some slight refinements to the Lovelace code. Plus of course a fix for the omission found by @Schimmelreiter!
It also reorganises some of the Lovelace files into folders to make it more easy to see what is going on (IMO ). So if you have already taken a copy of the package as it is now and want the latest version please bear that in mind if you have made any of your own customisations.

Excellent! Thanks for the tip - I am still a newbie to HA and was not aware of being able to change input_text in the dev tools…

I have just uploaded a the latest version of Version 2 (still considered a preview).
Its new home is https://github.com/kloggy/HA-Irrigation-Version2
For anyone interested in Version 1 I have uploaded the version I am currently using which includes all fixes and updates I have made. Its new home is: https://github.com/kloggy/HA-Irrigation-Version1
The old repository is still there but should be considered an archive and at some point in the future I will probably delete it.
@klogg: one more thing to add: for configuring the user 1 and user 2 to obtain notifications, there are two steps missing in the config files: in the package “garden_v2” the file garden_globals.yaml has to get extended at the end of the section by the following lines…:
#================
#=== Input Texts
#================
input_text:
.
.
.
notifications_user1_name:
name: User Name1
min: 0
max: 10
notifications_user2_name:
name: User Name2
min: 0
max: 10
I hope this is of any help for others?! Then it is possible to set those settings in the UI. Otherwise it shows “entities missing”…
Yes you’re (half) right. This needs to be added to the readme file. I can’t won’t add this to the package as it is something I use throughout my config so whilst as you say those input texts do need to be defined somewhere, they are strictly speaking not part of the irrigation system.
But yes, I should add it to the readme.
@klogg This is some really amazing work. I’m currently on 108.8 and having a real hard time getting lovelace to work properly. This is how i specified to include the custom card modules
lovelace:
mode: yaml
#
# Add-On for lovelace
#
resources:
- url: /hacsfiles/stack-in-card/stack-in-card.js
type: module
- url: /hacsfiles/lovelace-card-mod/card-mod.js
type: module
- url: /hacsfiles/button-card/button-card.js

type: module
- url: /hacsfiles/vertical-stack-in-card/vertical-stack-in-card.js
type: module
I’ve created a ui-lovelace.yaml file and the only information i specified was
views:
- !include lovelace/view_garden_version2.yaml
Packages, i’ve only copied garden_v2 and have defined this to be used in config.yaml
Reloading HA results to this. I had a look through the directories you’ve uploaded but can’t find the section_status_header.yaml file
Ooopss… My bad.
I must have forgotten to press the Commit button.
All the files are in the folder lovelace/includes_garden/status now.
Really sorry about that. I’m blaming lockdown…
@klogg this lockdown is horse crap!!! Thanks bud. Am i on the right track with the implementation??
I’m not asking spoon feed me but i’d REAAALLLY like to get this going. Any help would be amazing!
Yeah, I think so 
The stumbling block seems to be getting the files in the right folder structure. They need to mirror how I have them on github. (Unless of course you go through and change all the !include statements to reflect how you want to set it up) .
There are a few other things that need to be configured to suit you such as weather sources.
I’m Happy to help if you have any specific issues.
@klogg haven’t changed a single line. Just trying to get lovelace to actually display the picture you added on Github.Thanks man i really appreciate it.
@klogg Ok here’s what i have on a brand new HA install. I used the folder structure as is and haven’t edited any of the files. All i’m hoping to achieve is only to at least get LoveLace to load up.
108.8
- Installed hacs and added the custom integration and cards you mentioned. After adding each one i’m being presented to add them to lovelace
Here’s my full config.yaml file
homeassistant:
packages: !include_dir_named packages
default_config:
frontend:
themes: !include_dir_named themes
lovelace:
mode: yaml
tts:
- platform: google_translate
group: !include groups.yaml
automation: !include automations.yaml
script: !include scripts.yaml
scene: !include scenes.yaml
I copied the lovelace directory as is
I copied the package directory to packages
I created a ui-lovelace.yaml file to include view_garden_version2.yaml
When reloading HA - System goes into recovery mode. Also Loading error log doesn’t load any logs
Looking at the log file from File Editor

I have moved the prerequisites into a separate page on GitHub to make it more useful.
Please check you have followed everything there.
Two easy starters though:
I suspect your DarkSky weather sensor doesn’t match mine. This was mentioned in a forum post above but I have now detailed it in the readme.
It also looks like you haven’t defined the correct font.
@klogg Thank you so much for taking the time to read through my comments.
Here’s what i have. I’ve been through the prerequisites and the only thing i haven’ done is the notifications
- HACS cards installed and defined as indicated on each of the respective install pages.
- Oswold font set
- dark_teal theme set
- Darksky have been added however not too sure if these are 100% correct:
- platform: darksky
api_key: <apikey>
forecast: 1
monitored_conditions:
- summary
- temperature
- temperature_max
- temperature_min
- cloud_cover
- humidity
- pressure
- minutely_summary
- hourly_summary
- daily_summary
- SmartWeather - Used their demo station as a test. Is it required to have 5 different stations? Not sure what will happen if i only specify one and not the other 4.
https://swd.weatherflow.com/swd/rest/stations/690?api_key=20c70eae-e62f-4d3b-b3a4-8586e90f3ac8
Showing up like this
Overall:
- System IDLE is unkown
- Morning Afternoon and Manual is Unkown - Where is this being defined or being pulled from?
Because the file “view_garden_v2.yaml” must be in the /config directory. And also the two directory “includes” and “includes_garden” must be in te /config directory.
