Hi everyone,
I wanted to share a Home Assistant integration I’ve been developing called Advanced History.
It provides a Home Assistant-style History panel, but uses the excellent Statistics Graph Chart Card for graph rendering. The aim is to retain the familiar Home Assistant experience while providing the much more powerful chart configuration and visualisation options available in this card.
Some of the features currently included are:
- Home Assistant’s native target picker for selecting areas, devices and entities
- Energy-style date navigation and period comparison
- Configurable numeric and state-timeline graphs
- Optional replacement graphs in entity More Info dialogs
- Visual and YAML chart editors
- Bookmarks for saving and restoring complete charts
- Recent chart history, undo and redo
- Separate defaults for the History panel and More Info graphs
Statistics Graph Chart Card remains a separate required dependency and is loaded at runtime—the integration does not bundle or redistribute it.
A very special thank you to cataseven for creating Statistics Graph Chart Card and for allowing and supporting its use in this project.
You can find screenshots, installation instructions and further information in my Home Assistant Community post:
Feedback and testing are very welcome. The project is still under active development, so I’d particularly appreciate hearing about unusual entity types, large history ranges or chart configurations.
