Not extracting attribute values #55

Closed Gamelauncher closed 3 years ago

Gamelauncher commented 3 years ago

I have a sensor with some attributes but whatever I do, I don't get the correct values displayed.

Screen Shot 2020-10-31 at 12 16 55

      - id: alarm_events_feed
        type: "custom:home-feed-card"
        title: Events
        show_header_toggle: false
        compact_mode: true
        entities:
          - entity: sensor.event_c2be08
            name: Events
            content_template: '{{ state }}'
            include_history: true
            max_history: 5
            remove_repeats: false

I've tried setting to the content_template to '{{ states.sensor.event_c2be08.attributes["time"] }}' but it won't display anything, not even with '{{state}}'.

Any idea on how I can extract the attribute values?

Have you tried

content_template '{{time}}'

I'm having a similar problem, but I haven't worked with just times before, so not sure if it will work or not, but the idea is here for the record. John

Full Jinja templating ins't supported in the content_template, but in 0.6.0 I added the attribute option so you can use an attribute instead of the state for an enity. So you would use something like

  - id: alarm_events_feed
    type: "custom:home-feed-card"
    title: Events
    show_header_toggle: false
    compact_mode: true
    entities:
      - entity: sensor.event_c2be08
        name: Events
        attribute: time
        content_template: '{{ state }}'
        include_history: true
        max_history: 5
        remove_repeats: false
