lawn-mower-card v1.1.7

Lawn Mower Card

Based on https://github.com/denysdovhan/vacuum-card and https://github.com/bhuebschen/lawn-mower-card

Lawn Mower card for Home Assistant Lovelace UI

By default, Home Assistant does not provide any card for controlling lawn mowers. This card displays the state and allows to control your robot.

Installing

HACS

This card is available in HACS (Home Assistant Community Store) as a custom repository.

Just add the https://github.com/cociweb/lawn-mower-card repository.

Manual

1. Download lawn-mower-card.js file from the latest-release.
2. Put lawn-mower-card.js file into your config/www folder.

3. Add reference to lawn-mower-card.js in Lovelace. There's two way to do that:

   1. Using UI: Configuration → Lovelace Dashboards → Resources Tab → Click Plus button → Set Url as /local/lawn-mower-card.js → Set Resource type as JavaScript Module. Note: If you do not see the Resources Tab, you will need to enable Advanced Mode in your User Profile

   2. Using YAML: Add following code to lovelace section.

      resources:
        - url: /local/lawn-mower-card.js
          type: module

4. Add custom:lawn-mower-card to Lovelace UI as any other card (using either editor or YAML configuration).

Usage

This card can be configured using Lovelace UI editor.

1. In Lovelace UI, click 3 dots in top left corner.
2. Click Configure UI.
3. Click Plus button to add a new card.
4. Find Custom: Lawn Mower Card in the list.
5. Choose entity.
6. Now you should see the preview of the card!

Sorry, no support for actions, shortcuts and stats in visual config yet.

Typical example of using this card in YAML config would look like this:

type: custom:lawn-mower-card
entity: lawn_mower.lawn_mower
battery: sensor.lawn_mower_battery
show_toolbar: true
show_shortcuts: false
actions:
  start:
    service: lawn_mower.start_mowing
    service_data:
      entity_id: lawn_mover.sedat
stats:
  default:
    - entity_id: sensor.lawn_mower_bladeslifetime
      unit: '%'
      subtitle: Blades
    - entity_id: sensor.lawn_mower_lensbruh
      unit: '%'
      subtitle: Lens brush
  mowing:
    - entity_id: sensor.lawn_mower_area_mowed
      subtitle: Area mowed
      unit: m²
    - entity_id: sensor.lawn_mower_mwingtime
      unit: minutes
      subtitle: Mowing time
shortcuts:
  - name: Mow backyard
    service: script.startmow_backyard
    icon: mdi:mower-on
  - name: Mow frontyard
    service: script.startmow_frontyard
    icon: mdi:mower-on

Here is what every option means:

stats object

You can use any attribute of lawn mower or even any entity by entity_id to display by stats section. You can also combine attribute with entity_id to extract an attribute value of specific entity:

actions object

You can defined service invocations to override default actions behavior. Available actions to override are start, pause, resume, stop, locate and return_to_base.

shortcuts object

You can defined custom scripts for custom actions i.e mowing specific areas and add them to this card with shortcuts option.

Theming

This card can be styled by changing the values of these CSS properties (globally or per-card via card-mod):

Styling via theme

Here is an example of customization via theme. Read more in the Frontend documentation.

my-custom-theme:
  vc-background: '#17A8F4'
  vc-spacing: 5px

Styling via card-mod

You can use card-mod to customize the card on per-card basis, like this:

type: 'custom:lawn-mower-card'
style: |
  ha-card {
    --vc-background: #17A8F4;
    --vc-spacing: 5px;
  }
  ...

Animations

I've added some animations for this card to make it alive. Animations are applied only for image property. Here's how they look like:

Supported models

This card relies on basic lawn-mower services, like pause, start, stop, return_to_base, etc. It should work with any robot lawn mover, however I can physically test it only with my own robot lawn mower.

If this card works with your lawn mower, please open a PR and your model to the list.

• EcoVacs GOAT G1, GOAT G1-800, GOAT G1-2000, GOAT GX-600

• Tuya based lawn-mowers (with tuya-local or localtuya)

This project is heavily inspired by:

• Benedikt Hübschen — the first idea to reuse the vacuum-card as a lawn-mower card

Huge thanks for their ideas and efforts 👍
