battery-entity-row

Show battery states or attributes with dynamic icon on entity rows in Home Assistant's Lovelace UI

GH-release GH-downloads GH-last-commit GH-code-size hacs_badge

Rewritten and improved version of cbulock's battery-entity card (deprecated/unmaintained).

NOTE: This is not a standalone lovelace card, but a row element for the entities card. If you need a standalone card or want a lot more customizability, check out maxwroc's battery-state-card.

Installation

Manually add battery-entity-row.js to your <config>/www/ folder and add the following to the configuration.yaml file:

lovelace:
  resources:
    - url: /local/battery-entity-row.js?v=1.3.1
      type: module

OR install using HACS and add this (if in YAML mode):

lovelace:
  resources:
    - url: /hacsfiles/lovelace-battery-entity-row/battery-entity-row.js
      type: module

The above configuration can be managed directly in the Configuration -> Lovelace Dashboards -> Resources panel when not using YAML mode, or added by clicking the "Add to lovelace" button on the HACS dashboard after installing the plugin.

Configuration

This card produces an entity-row and must therefore be configured as an entity in an entities card.

The battery level value is fetched from the entity state, from the attribute battery or battery_level, or from a custom attribute defined with the attribute option. Numeric values (0-100) and some predefined string values (high, normal, low, etc..) are supported as a battery level value.

Name Type Default Description
type string Required custom:battery-entity-row
entity string Required domain.my_entity_id
attribute string battery_level Override battery level attribute
name string friendly_name Override entity friendly_name
secondary_info string last-changed, last-updated or an attribute of the entity.
unit string/bool % Override default unit, or hide with false
icon string Override dynamic battery icon
warning number 35 Level at which the icon will appear yellow
critical number 15 Level at which the icon will appear red
charging bool/object false Indicate charging based on entity state. See charging object for more options.

Currently limited support for secondary_info option with value last-changed.

Charging object
