Hi there! I think Pawsistant is a great idea and will be useful for keeping track of pet events. I installed it using via HACS using a custom repository. After restarting, I was able to install the Pawsistant integration on my system and create an entry for my pet.
I ran into difficulties trying to get the pawsistant-card working. It was not available in my system (either in the dashboard editor or manual yaml editing).
To get the pawsistant-card to be available to use I did the following:
I created a pawsistant-card directory in my /config/www/community directory
I copied the pawsistant-card.js file from the /config/custom_components/pawsistant/frontend directory to the directory created in step 1
I manually added the following lines to the end of the lovelace:resources: section of my configuration.yaml file
After restarting my home assistant instance, I could now add the pawsistant-card to a dashboard and configure with the pet name I created when installing the integration.
Just a heads up for you to consider improving in a new release and a workaround for using the current version.
I have a suggestion to consider adding to a future version. Right now there are separate Poop and Pee buttons/events. I know that in some circumstances tracking both separately is important (after surgery, etc.) but for my everyday use I would prefer to have a “Take Outside” (or “Excretion” ) button/event instead of the separate ones. Perhaps you could consider an option when adding a pet to check to indicate you would prefer a single excretion tracking action?
