My Lovelace Plugins

Since head expect only one thing, and not a list, you should remove the dash.

any feedback on those questions?

  1. Is there a way to use auto-entity card with media control or custom miniplayer cards? (ex: display all media-player.plex* playing in mini player or media control cards, works fine in entity mode)

  2. Could you show us an example of the lovelace code to combine auto-entity with fold entity? Tried a few ways but cannot make this work…

  3. Is it normal it doesn’t show up in the custom updater card?

  4. Is there a sort option for auto-entity cards?

Thanks in advance, love yours cards|

Very nice! Could we get the Lovelace yaml snippet to make the screen shot you attached? Struggling to nest this inside the folding-entity like you display.

  1. Not at this point. Adding several cards in a bunch is a bit tough, due to the layouting and stuff…
  2. I’ve added the code to the end of the readme on github (ping @jwelter, too)
  3. As discussed right between your two messages, the custom tracker updates once per day.
  4. Not yet. I’ll make sure to add one, though.

Thanks, this is great stuff!

card-loader

Some people have experienced problems with custom cards that wrap other custom cards (such as putting mini-media-player in vertical-stack-in-card.

I haven’t experienced this myself, so I can’t test this, but I believe card-loader could be used as a workaround until the card developers fix it.

Thanks for that… I would never in a million years have stumbled on that code. Cheers.

Hi Thomas -

Does this support putting a attribute on the second_line display? For example battery_level for zwave devices for the battery check would be helpful?

Hi Thomas,
Your custom cards are absolutely awesome! May I ask about feature request:

  • Say, I have monster-card that filters out some entities.
  • I’d like to apply a custom popup-card on each of these entities
  • In popup I’d like to display:
    – history-graph card displaying current entity’s state changes with custom interval (10 days)
    – useful-markdown-card displaying text containing current entity’s attributes

Config might be smth like this:

 -  type: custom:monster-card
    card:
      type: entities
    filter:
      include:
        - entity_id: sensor.prefix*

  - type: custom:popup-card
    entity:
      - <same entities defined in monster. filtered with wildcard?>
    card:
      type: vertical-stack
      cards:
        - type: history-graph
          hours_to_show: 240
          entities:
            - <entity_id displayed in the popup>
        - type: custom:useful-markdown-card
          content: 'More details: [[ sensor.<entity_id displayed in the popup>.attributes.Attribute ]]'

Hope explanation abode makes sense. What could you advice?

@cjsimmons I will not “hijack” @thomasloven 's thread, if you want more info about it please open an issue in one of the repos for it :slight_smile:

You could try this: https://github.com/MizterB/lovelace-secondaryinfo-entity-row/tree/master

That’s an interesting project.

Unfortunately monster-card (or my reimplementation auto-entities) can’t be used to create one card per entity due to layouting concerns.

If I were to do it, I’d probably try to make some kind of jinja script that could design the popup-cards automatically based on a for-loop over all entities, run it in /dev-template and then copy the results into the lovelace config.

@thomasloven - can fold-entity-row be made to ‘fold’ or ‘un-fold’ from code?

For example, I have more than one instance of using a schedule when an input_boolean is on.
It would be great to be able to keep the schedule part of the UI ‘folded’ or ‘un-folded’ based on the state of the input_boolean.

I usually recommend that people use the conditional card instead.

Yeah, I thought of that. A conditional folding card would be cool though :wink:

EDIT: Just in case you want to know exactly why I’d like it here is what I am working on right now…

It would be great if turning on the Boolean unfolds the entites.

Thanks for looking and whatever, I am loving your cards…

Great plugin! i do have a request tho… for the fold-entity-row

Is it possible to align the items under the fold as the same as the rest outside of it?

I hope you know what i mean by looking at the pics…

IMO i think it will look a lot neater. Especialy when controlling from mobile

Do you know how to get rid of this error (started when I switched from the markdown card to the useful-markdown-card):
element.setconfig is not a function

All the cards on the page produce the same error. Error go away but then come back after a few browser refreshes.

Maybe this is another clue: the padding option does nothing and sometimes the padding automatically switches between 0px and what looks like 16px.

I move the card’s resource URL call from the bottom to the top and now the errors went away:

resources:
  - url: /local/custom-lovelace/useful-markdown-card/useful-markdown-card.js?v=0
    type: js
  - url: /local/custom-lovelace/mini-media-player/mini-media-player.js?v=0.9.8
    type: module
  - url: /local/custom-lovelace/tracker-card/tracker-card.js?v=0
    type: js
  - url: /local/custom-lovelace/compact-custom-header/compact-custom-header.js?v0
    type: js
  - url: /local/custom-lovelace/monster-card/monster-card.js?v=1
    type: js
  - url: /local/custom-lovelace/vertical-stack-in-card/vertical-stack-in-card.js?v=0.0.9
    type: js

The padding issue still exists.

That’s because of a problem in vertical-stack-in-card. I made a special card specifically for dealing with that: My Lovelace Plugins

@thomasloven Am I right in believing that fold-entity-row doesn’t use unit_of_measurement when it displays an input_number?

I ask because it doesn’t show up for me.

EDIT: There must have been some sort of cache issue going on because it appears now :roll_eyes::thinking:
