WebSocket API Google Charts for Home Assistant > 0.100

A small project of mine to compare in real time diverse sensor values values using Google Charts.

Features

  • Can be used standalone of HASS;
  • Uses the new (as of Dec 2019) Long-Lived Access Token auth system;
  • Can be embedded as in iframe in lovelace;
  • Updates in real time;
  • Sortable by name or value;
  • Chart type can be changed on the fly (3 default options: column, bar, piechart - more can be added: read the comments in the state-card-gchart.html file);
  • Supports one more more entities (recomended to compare: power, temperature, humidity, mold etc.).
  • Could be also use as a weather forecast (disabling some of the options might be needed).
  • Highly customizable (styling, axes types, annotations etc.). Visit Google Charts for more information and options (ColumnChart, BarChart, PieChart).

Hi,
i’m trying to use this with my home-assistant installation.
i’m running Home-Assistant on Ubuntu Server with VirtualEnv and getting this error in the ui:
http://192.168.0.220:8123/bower_components/google-apis/google-legacy-loader.html” 404 not found.
What am i missing?

Thanks,

Very nice @covrig what are you using to measure the energy consumption of all the entities?

I am using the InfluxDB platform plus the InfluxDB Sensor. Cheers.

Weird. Sounds like a issue with your installation. A bit difficult to debug without access to your machine.
Is this the only problem you have with your setup?

What javascript_version do you have in your frontend section? My platform won’t work on all versions.

What hardware are you using to measure the usage? This is a cool idea

Well, any hardware configuration is possible.
I am using a bunch of ZWave sockets (Aeotec, Fibaro).

i was using VirtualEnv above ubuntu 16,
i have now installed a new and fresh Ubuntu 18 and reinstalled Home Assistant/
i’ll give it a try again.
Cheers,

Hey - I am keen to get the pie chart to display within Lovelace - but I can only see the ‘groups’ method for choosing elements for display.

Is this ready for lovelace, and if so - what is the ‘card type’?

Hello. Sadly, it isn’t ready for lovelace.
It is hard keeping up with the frequent changes in HASS (every other update breaks some custom tools). I will wait a bit until the situation normalizes and then update it. Sorry.

That’s really cool, I’ve been trying to do something similar with chart.js but have did not manage to get the HA data into JSON data. Would it work with a mysql (mariaDB) database?

Why don’t you install InfluxDB and Grafana? You can create all the charts you want. Or you would like something in the HASS interface?

I did get Grafana working but I’m after something a little more integrated with the UI, with realtime updates, etc. I’m still using the Old UI also so I’ll give this a try. I’ve just found that there is a mysql sensor I can use to I should be able to get MariaDB to work also.

I updated the code to work with the new Long-Lived Access Token auth system.
