Configuration Options

This Strategy needs you to configure it for it to work!

Take a look at the Configuration Documentation for the required options!

Click for Configuration Options

option	description	type	required	default	example
presets	The presets for which there will be buttons which load the history of the specified (filtered) entities.	Array	yes	-	presets: - icon: mdi:motion-sensor title: Occupancy filter: include: - type: entity comparator: match value: binary_sensor\..*_occupancy - icon: mdi:light-bulb title: Lights (but not Living Room) filter: include: - type: domain value: exclude: - type: area value: living_room

So valid YAML for this could look like this:

---
strategy:
  type: custom:log-view-strategy
  config:
    presets:
    - icon: mdi:motion-sensor
      title: Occupancy
      filter:
        include:
        - type: entity
          comparator: match
          value: binary_sensor\..*_occupancy
    - icon: mdi:light-bulb
      title: Lights (but not Living Room)
      filter:
        include:
        - type: domain
          value:
        exclude:
        - type: area
          value: living_room
icon: mdi:test
path: test
title: Test

I used all available options in this example. You don`t need to do this! Take a look at the required fields for what you need!

Log Preset

Defines the Button on the side and which entities will be loaded in the Log Card when the Preset Button is clicked.

Define as many Log Presets as you want.

Filter

Filters can be defined for fine-grained control which entities should be matched. You can use both include and exclude as keys. Both are optional.

filter:
  include:
    - ...
  exclude:
    - ...

Both accept the same types and syntax.

An entity needs to match all include filters to be included but it needs only to match one of the exclude filters to be excluded!

The filter object looks like this.

option	description	type	required	example
type	The type of filter to determine the value or just specify the filter	Object	yes	type: state
comparator	The comparator to use to compare the left value (the value in the entity described by the type) and the right value (the user specified value)	Object	no	comparator: equal
value	The user specified value	unknown	no	value: on

So valid YAML for this could look like this:

---
type: state
comparator: equal
value: true

Filter Type

These are the options for filter type.

Click for Configuration Options

option	description	example
entity	Filter on the entity_id of the entity. entity_id not Entity Name or Display Name! Some ways to find it explained here	- type: entity comparator: equal value: sensor.test123
domain	Filter on the domain of the entity.	- type: domain comparator: equal value: sensor
device	Filter on the parent device_id of the entity. device_id not Device Name or Display Name! Some ways to find it explained here	- type: device comparator: equal value: 98b750a482bbf28ea959269981813219
area	Filter on the area_id of the entity. area_id not Area Name or Display Name! Find at "https://YourHA/config/areas/dashboard". Edit Area = shows area_id	- type: area comparator: equal value: living_room
integration	Filter on the integration of the entity. Needs to be the id of the integration not the name! More on how to find it here	- type: integration comparator: equal value: mqtt
label	Filter on the label of the entity. Needs to be the id of the label not the name! More on how to find it here	- type: label comparator: equal value: sort_1
state	Filter on the state of the entity.	- type: state comparator: equal value: on
attribute	Filter on an attribute of the entity. Needs a special value structure with another object with key + value, where key is the desired attribute	- type: attribute comparator: equal value: key: volume value: 100
disabled_by	Filter on the disabled_by state of the entity. Possible Disablers here	- type: disabled_by comparator: match value: .*
hidden_by	Filter on the hidden_by state of the entity. Possible Hiders here	- type: hidden_by comparator: match value: .*
entity_category	Filter on the category of the entity.	- type: entity_category comparator: equal value: diagnostic

Filter Comparator

These are the options for filter comparator.

option	description	example
equal	Check if the selected type value of the entity and the passed value are equal.	- type: state comparator: equal value: on
match	Check if the selected type value of the entity matches against the passed regexp value. Regexp can be tested here	- type: entity comparator: match value: .*_occupancy
in	Check if the selected type value of the entity is in the list of defined values. value needs to be an array!	- type: state comparator: in value: - on - off
greater_than	Check if the selected type value of the entity is greater than the defined value. Works only on numeric type values and defined values!	- type: state comparator: greater_than value: 5
lower_than	Check if the selected type value of the entity is lower than the defined value. Works only on numeric type values and defined values!	- type: state comparator: lower_than value: 5
is_null	Check if the selected type value of the entity is null. Does not need a value defined! Exception is type: attribute as it needs key for attribute name!	- type: state comparator: is_null
is_numeric	Check if the selected type value of the entity is numeric. Does not need a value defined! Exception is type: attribute as it needs key for attribute name!	- type: attribute comparator: is_numeric value: key: volume
