 hexa | yep | 23:11:15 |
 continous | I'm gonna go try and fail horrible until I succeed by sheer luck. | 23:12:22 |
| hexa | enjoy 😄 | 23:31:01 |
 Ekleog | Hmm how do y'all configure multiple dashboards? I've been trying to add mine in environment.etc and refer to them from my hass config, but they… seem to always be exactly type: original-states, so I guess it's not actually reading them? | 23:53:21 |
| hexa | just services.home-assistant.lovelaceConfig | 23:55:35 |
| hexa | * just services.home-assistant.lovelaceConfig | 23:55:40 |
| hexa | I have both declarative setups as well as imperative ones | 23:56:00 |

| Ekleog | hmm so how do you do multiple dashboards with a single lovelaceConfig? | 00:01:18 |
| Ekleog | My understanding was you're supposed to do something like this to get multiple dashboards:
lovelace.dashboards = {
lovelace-volets = {
mode = "yaml";
title = "Volets";
icon = "mdi:window-shutter-open";
filename = "/etc/home-assistant/volets.yml";
};
};
| 00:01:53 |
| Ekleog | unless there's some way to have multiple dashboards with a single big yaml file? but I've been unable to figure any such way out :/ | 00:02:48 |
| Ekleog | oh fu i'm so stupid | 00:15:26 |
| Ekleog | my file is named volets.yaml not volets.yml | 00:15:33 |
| Ekleog | but wth home-assistant not even logging that the file does not exist ._. | 00:15:43 |
| Ekleog | * but also wth home-assistant not even logging that the file does not exist ._. | 00:15:50 |
| continous | I'm done, it's working, how should I submit the package pull request? I've literally never submitted a package lol | 00:19:23 |
| continous | Actually I'll just go look at the github maybe they'll have a guide | 00:20:04 |
| hexa | start here https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/README.md#quick-start-to-adding-a-package | 00:24:53 |
| hexa | and feel free to link the PR here | 00:25:04 |
| hexa | services.home-assistant.lovelaceConfig = {

views = [

lounge

| 00:26:07 |
| hexa | basically a list of views 😄 | 00:26:17 |
| hexa | cc Ekleog | 00:26:20 |
| hexa | and a view is basically
workshop = {
title = "Workshop";
cards = [ {
type = "vertical-stack";
cards = [ {
type = "area";
area = "workshop";
}
(mkRoomSensor "c02a8b")

type = "entities";
entities = [
"button.wake_workshop"
{ type = "divider"; }

(mkShellyPlugS "workshop_powerstrip_right" "Powerstrip Rechts" "mdi:power-socket-eu")
(mkShellyPlugS "workshop_amp" "Amp" "mdi:speaker")
];
} ];
} ];
};
| 00:26:45 |
| hexa | * and a view is basically
workshop = {
title = "Workshop";
cards = [ ... ];
};
| 00:27:07 |
| hexa | I do reference them, because otherwise the nesting drives me crazy | 00:27:27 |
| Ekleog | hexa: oh ok yea so you only get views, not actual dashboards — I got a few views already but I want more than my phone's UI can reasonably display, so I'm testing out multiple dashboards with fewer views on each dashboard now 😄 | 00:36:41 |
| Ekleog | thank you for the details! | 00:36:49 |
| hexa | ah, ok | 00:40:07 |
