state-switch
|
||||
============
|
||||
|
||||
Allows you to display different cards depending on the state of an entity, the currently logged in user or the current device-browser combination
|
||||
|
||||
This card requires [card-tools](https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-card-tools) to be installed.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
> Note in the animation above that the two browser windows have two different users logged in, which changes the rightmost card.
|
||||
|
||||
## Installation
|
||||
|
||||
Please read and follow this guide: [Lovelace Plugins](https://github.com/thomasloven/hass-config/wiki/Lovelace-Plugins)
|
||||
|
||||
## Options
|
||||
|
||||
| Name | Type | Default | Description
|
||||
| ---- | ---- | ------- | -----------
|
||||
| type | string | **Required** | `custom:state-switch`
|
||||
| entity | string | **Required** | Controlling entity id, `user` or `browser`
|
||||
| states | object | **Required** | Map of states to cards to display
|
||||
| default | string | none | State to use as default
|
||||
|
||||
The `entity` parameter can take three different types of value
|
||||
|
||||
### Entity\_id
|
||||
If the `entity` parameter is set to an entity id, which card is displayed will depend on the state of that entity.
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
- title: state-switch-card

|

|
||||
Note that the words `on` and `off` are magic in yaml, so if the entity is e.g. a switch, you need to quote the keys in the `states:` mapping:
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
states:
|
||||
"on":
|
||||
type: markdown
|
||||
content:>

Light is on

||||

type: markdown
|
||||
content:>
|
||||
Light is off
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### user
|
||||
If the `entity` parameter is set to `user`, which card is displayed will depend on the currently logged in users username.
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
cards:
|
||||
- type: custom:state-switch

### browser
|
||||
If the `entity` parameter is set to `browser`, which card is displayed will depend on the device-browser combination which is currently displaying the page.
|
||||
|
||||
This "browser ID" is in the form of a 16 character string with a dash in the middle and is unique, random and persistent for the browser.
|
||||
|
||||
If the `default` parameter is **not** set, the default behavior will be to display a small card containing the browser ID.
