After installation of the file what is the user supposed to do to get the dashboard? Could you please add that information to the readme?

mkaiser commented 2 years ago

The Dashboard shown in the screenshot in the readme.md was manually added.

  1. Create a new dashboard (or use the standard one)
  2. Click "Add new Card" and select "Entities"
  3. Add the sensor values you want to display. I (more or less randomly) divided them into momentary power, energy, battery and other.

Another approach is to copy my dashboard using the "raw configuration editor" (top right, the 3 dots)

Cool, thanks for the answer. Could you please add this file to the repository and the instructions to the readme for other people to see in the future?

johschmitz commented 2 years ago

When trying to copy your dashboard code I am getting:

YAMLException: duplicated mapping key (7:7) 4 | type: entities 5 | entities: 6 | entity: sensor.mppt1_voltage 7 | entity: sensor.mppt1_current -----------^ 8 | entity: sensor.mppt2_voltage 9 | entity: sensor.mppt2_current

Which version of HA are you using? When you copy the code from GitHub and use the "raw configuration editor" to paste it does it work for you?

mkaiser commented 2 years ago

hi @johschmitz,

sorry for my late reply.

It was my fault. When i copy my github snippet from above the identation gets lost.

Please try this file. Is it working? When it works, I'll add it to the git-code

Sungrow_Dashboard.txt

johschmitz commented 2 years ago

I recommend to call it sungrow_dashboard.yaml not .txt. I can try it later but I think if it works for you, you should already go ahead and add it.

johschmitz commented 2 years ago

Adding the content of your txt file to my dashboard yaml (starting with - title) worked for me, so you could add it as a .yaml file to the repository.

mkaiser commented 2 years ago

Done. Thanks for your feedback!
