custom element does not exist #23

xdenneboom commented 3 years ago

I have tried both a HACS install and a manual install. can't get around the "type does not exist" issue that many others seem to have. How did anyone else even get this card working?

This may be caused by my wrong description Please check the configuration

type: custom:thermostat-card
entity: climate.gong_zuo_jian_kong_diao
small_i: true
title: room
xdenneboom commented 3 years ago

no, it's not.

I do this, and the card works fine

type: thermostat
entity: climate.living_room

the moment I change the type to 'custom:thermostat-card' it immediately gives the error that this type does not exist.

I just accidentally found out how to fix this for any interested. You also need to install the Dark Thermostat; after that this works.

thanks for the tip. I installed dark-thermostat. It still gave problems for this card afterwards. Seems the developer here has abandoned the project. dark-thermostat seems to be the alternative. I'll use that one.

You might have sorted the isue by now but as I came across the issue myself today I have found that there is what might be a typo in the installation guidelines ?

THere is a "-" dash symbol before "type" which needs to be deleted.

A working card for me :

type: custom:thermostat-card entity: climate.kitchen_better_trv title: Kitchen no_card: false step: 0.5 highlight_tap: false chevron_size: 50 pending: 3 idle_zone: 2

I had this error and for me it was incorrect resource URL. For hacs users, it might need to be this instead of what is in the instructions:
