That’s great
Hi @HarryBoo, vehicle info doesn’t have its own thread, but it’s linked to the component thread. If you have any questions, you can send me a message, or feel free to create an issue on the repo
Hello,
I am having difficulties accommodating the entities that my BMW provides.
- It outputs the status of individual doors or locks as attributes of higher-level entities (entity: “binary_sensor.bmw530d_lids”, whose attributes: “leftFront: CLOSED”, “leftRear: CLOSED”, “rightFront: CLOSED” etc.), but I cannot output attributes in a group of indicators. Or have I overlooked something?
- The BMW offers button entities that trigger immediate actions (“button.bmw530d_activate_air_conditioning”). Here, too, I have not succeeded in assigning this to the buttons on the button cards of this card.
Regards and thanks for this card,
Eckart
Hi, because it’s a binary sensor, you have to go through the template. You can easily find out the state for each attribute via template editor, but I think you will have on/off … something like this…
{{ iif(is_state_attr('sensor.6z1_2359_lock','doorstatusrearright', true), 'Locked', 'Closed') }}
{{ states['sensor.6z1_2359_lock'].attributes.doorstatusrearright }}
For the button, each integration has a different design. I don’t know if you are using the official bmw integration, but according to the documentation I have no idea what the button is supposed to do. Some require script/automation for trigger service. Try to set tap action as toggle.
I would like to use the minimap, but my car integrations doesn’t create a device_tracker
, instead I created a sensor
. Is there any chance to use a sensor
for the minimap (I added the latitude and longitude attributes to the sensor)?
why not create a device tracker manually using lat and lon from the sensor?
device_tracker:
- platform: template
devices:
my_custom_tracker:
source_type: gps
latitude: "{{ states('sensor.my_latitude_sensor') | float }}"
longitude: "{{ states('sensor.my_longitude_sensor') | float }}"
gps_accuracy: "{{ states('sensor.my_gps_accuracy_sensor') | int }}"
battery_level: "{{ states('sensor.my_battery_sensor') | int }}"
gps_accuracy and battery_level are optional
Because I was pretty sure, it’s not possible the create a device with a template.
Solved it, by creating an automation and using the device_tracker.see
action
Thank you so much for this amazing work, I love it!
Now … hear me out
I know you intended this as a vehicle status card… but it’s an amazing card for pets too
This is my cat. Indicators are the daily stats, the buttons are actions to clean litter box / add food / open cat door …
I’m using Tractive tracker, petkit feeder and automatic litter box, pet libro water fountain
(Map display is much better I just zoomed in to hide my address )
