LOL - not sure of the relevance of that to the dashboard, but I certainly agree which is why I created AppDaemon :wink:

In case anyone is wondering, link to the thread to share your dashboards

How did you change the text color in the clock? I tried to change data-color but mine is always purple! the sample page has #ff0000 which is red but it still shows Purpleā€¦ what is the tricks to get White like yours?

910

you can edit clock.scss in widgets for that

911

Yes! thank you, I found that under widgets folder!!

Hi, I got my hadashboard config and it displays data from homeassistant but I canā€™t get the hapush.py to workā€¦hereā€™s the error, can you help me to the right direction to fix this?

My hapush.cfg:

ha_url = "https://[ha-name].duckdns.org"
ha_key = "api_key_goes_here"
dash_host = "192.168.1.111:3030"
dash_dir = "/home/pi/hadashboard/dashboards"
logfile = "/home/pi/hadashboard/hapush/hapush.log"

See,s to be a problem with your SSL setup - can you access HA via the duckdns URL OK?

914

Yeahā€¦ I can hit the duckdns.org domain 100% fineā€¦ and in the ha_conf for Hadashboard, I specified the url there tooā€¦ and it worksā€¦ but just not on hapush.

That is why I got confused.

915

@vnguyen972 Does HAPush work for you if you try connecting through an internal address? (eg 192.168.1.111 if it is on the same machine as HADashboard)

If your HADashboard install and Home Assistant install are on the same subnet (or same computer for that matter, as is the case for many people), you can safely use the internal IP address for ā€˜ha_urlā€™. Also, along the same lines, if all of your traffic is internal (and if you trust your network - (eg: in a home situation vs a dorm or shared living space)), you can try without SSL (just use ha_url = ā€œhttp://192.168.x.xā€)

If there is a reason you need HAPush to connect to Home Assistant via the open Internet, rather than internally, then disregard. Otherwise, you may just be trying to solve a problem that you could just work around, instead.

916

Hey thanks so much for jumping in on this.

I setup SSL so I could access it remotely. For the HADashboard, it doesnā€™t need to, but other times when I am away, Iā€™d like to be able to access it for any reason. Thatā€™s why I setup SSL :slight_smile:

Yeah, I tried the following but it didnā€™t work, I guess once you setup SSL, you canā€™t access without SSL? I am not so sure about that!

ha_url = "http://192.168.1.111:8123"
ha_key =
dash_host = "192.168.1.111:3030"
dash_dir = "/home/pi/hadashboard/dashboards"
logfile = "/home/pi/hadashboard/hapush/hapush.log"

but it keeps saying unable to connect

2017-01-16 11:50:10,323 INFO Reading dashboard: /home/pi/hadashboard/dashboards/example.erb
2017-01-16 11:50:10,332 INFO Reading dashboard: /home/pi/hadashboard/dashboards/main.erb
2017-01-16 11:50:10,377 WARNING Unable to connect to Home Assistant, retrying in 5 seconds
917

So I read more into this and I wrote a test.py just to see if SSEClient works and I canā€™t get it to work, eitherā€¦

if I hit the URL https://192.168.1.111:8123/api/stream?api_password=<pasword_here>, it works, I got a Ping and itā€™s streamingā€¦ on the browser just fineā€¦

but I couldnā€™t get it to work via Pythonā€¦and I checked and I think sseclient is uptodateā€¦ Iā€™m not sure whatelse to doā€¦

918

I think I got it WORKING!

After a lot of reading and researchingā€¦ turns out I have an older version of pyOpenSSL (0.13.1)

so I did

sudo pip3 uninstall pyOpenSSL
sudo pip3 install pyOpenSSL

That would uninstall the older and install the latestā€¦

and it seems to worksā€¦ I could run hapush.py without any errorā€¦

UPDATE: Okay, no error, but I donā€™t see anything printing outā€¦ weirdā€¦ will look into that next.

919

I finally got it working! The pyOpenSSL took most of my time but Iā€™m glad I resolved itā€¦

Now off to learn more about dashboard configurationsā€¦

I need to learn coffee script and more CSS :slight_smile:

I wonder if thereā€™s a resource to learn about those coffee script syntax and stuff.

I want to try to change the text color on Hatemp when the temperature is on certain rangeā€¦ I canā€™t figure out howā€¦ I need more examples :slight_smile:

920

Excellent - glad you figured it out - if you make any cool changes don;t forget to let us know :slight_smile:

921

There is an example of color changing based on value further up the thread. (#510 by @jgon. He linked his code here ). What you are looking to do seems possible, just needs some tweaking for your uses.

Glad you got it working! Now go forth and hack :slight_smile:

922

Thanks. Yesā€¦ that was the one I looked at and inspired the idea but there are so much to learn and figure out so I could modify to my liking :slight_smile:

923

Good Evening!

I am at a complete and utter loss here. I have HaDashboard running and configured appropriately, but absolutely nothing works. I have Darksky running well and it offers a plethora of information in the HASS UI, but does absolutely nothing for HADB. I have properly configured one switch as a test before I went through the trouble of adding the rest, but alas it doesnā€™t do anything, I could click on it all day long but it wouldnā€™t change anything.

I have hapush.cfg configured, and hapush.py running, I have config.ru configured, and ā€˜dashing startā€™ initiated. I feel like there may be a better way to implement this than ~14 hours of configuration and manual loss of all my head hair!

924

Thatā€™s strange.

After my initial setup and ran it for the first time, I ran the example.erb, then I copied it to main.erb and started editing itā€¦ I edited one square at a time by plugging in my HA component. and hit reload to verify if it gets the right info (compared with HA UI)ā€¦ it should be that simple.

For example:hereā€™s my dark sky component:

<li data-row="1" data-col="3" data-sizex="1" data-sizey="1">
  <div data-id="dark_sky_temperature" data-view="Hatemp" data-unit="&deg;F" data-title="Temperature">   </div>
</li>

data-id should be my sensor name without the ā€œsensorā€ as in HA UI shown ā€œsensor.dark_sky_temperatureā€
