System Monitoring - How does yours look?

They do not. I’m sure that is the issue. None of the sensors give the correct information on developers tools. Not sure why this was changed?

I can get most of the information other ways, just does not display as well.

I spoke to soon. I believe most of the sensors do still work, just not in the markdown card. Hacs sensor changed but not sure why this would stop the card?

I’m not sure how to test the whole card in Del tools? When I paste the card there I get TypeError: ‘NoneType’ object is not iterable.

The bottom from | current below works in dev tools.

this is somewhat cryptic…

any jinja template that works in dev tools, works in Markdown.

if you have borked command_line sensors, no template based on that will work.

as you stated, most if this info can be had from the core integrations now. You can still template those nicely, or have them show via other means, no issue there.

it would save you some (maybe most) tailor made sensors, who using the built-in supervisor sensors, so why not give that a try? It would release the system just that extra bit :wink:

Guys you are really spamming this thread, what about opening a new one for your issue.

sure, guess you’re right.

otoh, you started posting thing like this yourself System Monitoring - How does your look? - #1049 by alanmilinovic :wink:

Yea but my scripts and configuration is working. :crazy_face:

Sorry for this. Mine just stopped working with the only change on my part being updating to 2023.4x. I have found the issue (hacs sensor change) and will post a fix once / if I figure it out.
For all those that are interested or helped, my issue was caused by changing Hacs to experimental mode. I did this after 2023.4.2 was released to use the new import macro function.This made the sensor.hacs unavailable.

Thanx so much @Kabala I have successfully done it

I know its too old , but how to get the news section ? can you share some tips ? @elRadix if you happened to achieve it , can you share ? thank you!

use the feedreader as detailed here: Feedreader - Home Assistant

but my goodness you are right, that is old… here is the latest

OMG, that looks wonderful, mind sharing the code ?

sure, herewith, this will however obviously not work as you need to configure the sensors and images and store these in the appropriate sections

you should however just be able to dump the above into your RAW configuration editor and then configure in the UI from there…

Thanks… it works perfectly… Just one think, the sensors used in the ubiquity, mind sharing the yaml file for that. I have most working, but can figure out how you pull the latency avarge…

you will need to check that add-on’s supporting pages and forums as it will all depend on a number of variables, like usg vs udm vs udmpro vs cloud key etc etc etc

I got that part working, it’s just the logic in getting the data for that value. (latency avarge)

Not working

      unifi_status_wan_latency_average:
        friendly_name: 'latency average'
        value_template: '{{ states.sensor.unifi_status_wan.attributes.latency_average }}'     

working

      unifi_status_wan_ip:
        friendly_name: 'WAN IP'
        value_template: '{{ states.sensor.unifi_status_wan.attributes.wan_ip }}'

this?

    internet_latency:
      friendly_name: 'Internet Latency'
      value_template: '{{ states.sensor.unifi_gateway_www.attributes.latency }}'
      unit_of_measurement: ms
      unique_id: internet_latency

You’d want to use state_attr() in your value template.

Spot on… I’m learning new things every day… :smiley: THANKS

yes, you would want to do it this way… I still use the old ways as I have not had time to go back and change all my sensors to use the new way…

If the sensor is not available at startup, you will get error messages in the logs with this.

internet_latency:
    friendly_name: 'Internet Latency'
    value_template: '{{ states.sensor.unifi_gateway_www.attributes.latency }}'
    unit_of_measurement: ms
    unique_id: internet_latency

You should try to avoid states.xxx, it’s better to use states('xxx'). Or in your case, as it is about attributes, you should use state_attr as mentioned by @firstof9.

That would look like this:

internet_latency:
    friendly_name: 'Internet Latency'
    value_template: "{{ state_attr('sensor.unifi_gateway_www', 'latency') }}"
    unit_of_measurement: ms
    unique_id: internet_latency
