Iframe state card for Home Assistant
KNOWN PROBLEMS: CSS and code could be better arranged, scalling on page zoom/resize could be better.
- Download
/www/custom_ui/state-card-iframe.html
to<your-hass-configuration-dir>/www/custom_ui/
(create the folder structure if you don't have it - mind the permissions) - Add it to your
configuration.yaml
:
frontend:
extra_html_url:
- /local/custom_ui/state-card-iframe.html
- Create one or more template sensors, binary_sensor(s), input_text(s) etc. in your
configuration.yaml
. E.g.:
sensor:
- platform: template
sensors:
iframe:
value_template: iframe
iframe2:
value_template: iframe
- Add your sensor to a group.. E.g.:
group:
group_iframe:
name: ' ' > in this format the iframe will not have a name above
entities:
- sensor.iframe
group_iframe2:
name: 'Name' > with a name
entities:
- sensor.iframe2
- Customize your newly created sensor in the
customize
section or yourcustomize.yaml
file:
The scale, height and scale should create the right size for the iframes. Iframes are a bit finicky to work with and sometimes the content they show don't scale properly.
- All options are mandatory!
customize:
sensor.iframe:
custom_ui_state_card: state-card-iframe
config:
height: 490 > in pixels, height of the iframe (more work needed)
width: 108 > in %, width of the iframe (more work needed)
scale: 1 > scales up or down the content of the iframe (it affects both the height and the width)
