Show actual sunset/rise times in sections card

Configuration Frontend
1

Hey all. I’m finally playing around with the new sections dashboard layout and it’s pretty great. However, I want to show a card with the next sun rise and sun set but it just displays as “in X hours”. On the my old dashboard layout i could add

  • entity: sensor.sun_next_rising
    format: time
    and that would show the actual time (ie: 6:23). But with the new cards I can’t seem to get it to work.

My temporary workaround is just to add an “entity” card. They’re not formatted the same/are a bit bigger than the normal sections cards.

I ended up creating 2 template sensors to show the actual times.

  - platform: template
    sensors:
      nextsunrise:
        friendly_name: 'Next Sunrise'
        value_template: >
          {{ as_timestamp(states.sun.sun.attributes.next_rising) | timestamp_custom(' %I:%M %p') | replace(" 0", "") }}
        icon_template: mdi:weather-sunset-up
      nextsunset:
        friendly_name: 'Next Sunset'
        value_template: >
          {{ as_timestamp(states.sun.sun.attributes.next_setting) | timestamp_custom(' %I:%M %p') | replace(" 0", "") }}
        icon_template: mdi:weather-sunset-down

Having sensors template with

    - name: "my sunrise"
      icon: mdi:weather-sunset-up
      state: "{{ as_timestamp(state_attr('sun.sun', 'next_rising')) |float| timestamp_custom('%-H:%M')}}"

    - name: "Coucher du soleil"
      unique_id: daylight_remaining
      attributes:
        friendly_name: "Coucher du soleil"
      state: >
        {% set now = as_timestamp(now()) %}
        {% set lever = as_timestamp(state_attr('sun.sun', 'next_rising')) %}
        {% set coucher = as_timestamp(state_attr('sun.sun', 'next_setting')) %}
        {% if now < lever %}
          {{(coucher - now)|abs|timestamp_custom('%-H:%M',false)}}
        {% else %}
          0
        {% endif %}

And a mushroom template card with this code below which give duration between actual time and the next sunset or if it’s after sunset, the next sunrise time.

type: custom:mushroom-template-card
primary: >-
  {% set temperature = states('sensor.airqualityext_temperature') | float |
  round (1)%}

  {% if temperature == temperature | int %}

  {% set result = temperature | int %} {% else %} {% set result = temperature |
  round (1) %} {% endif %}

  {{ states ('sensor.time') }} | {{ result }}°C
secondary: |
  {% set remaining_time = states('sensor.daylight_remaining') %}
  {% set sunrise_time = states('sensor.my_sunrise') %}
  {% if is_state('binary_sensor.night', 'off') %}
      Nuit dans {{ strptime(remaining_time, '%H:%M').strftime('%-Hh%M') }}
  {% else %}
      Lever à {{ strptime(sunrise_time, '%H:%M').strftime('%-Hh%M') }}
  {% endif %}
icon: |
  {% if states ('weather.maison') == 'partlycloudy' -%}
    mdi:weather-partly-cloudy
  {%- elif states ('weather.maison') == 'snowyrainy'-%}
    mdi:weather-snowy-rainy
  {%- elif states ('weather.maison') == 'lightningrainy'-%}
    mdi:weather-lightning-rainy
  {%- elif states ('weather.maison') == 'lightningrainy'-%}
    mdi:weather-lightning-rainy
  {%- else -%}
    mdi:weather-{{ states ('weather.maison') }}
  {%- endif %} 
tap_action:
  action: navigate
  navigation_path: /lovelace/meteo
fill_container: true
multiline_secondary: true
icon_color: |-
  {% if is_state('binary_sensor.night','off') %}
     amber
  {% else %}
     #318ce7
  {% endif %}

Thanks!! Very much appreciated! I’ll give that a shot when I get home.
