[Compatibility other HACS] Custom-template-card and auto entities

[OpenGrowBox]

Hello dear Team,
I noticed that the bubble card not work with Templates as far as i noticed.

If I want to build a card with 3 custom components.

1. custom config-template-card (selects from a select sensor the current Room creates a var)
2. auto-entitys( with includes area - ${room) for all entity in that room )
3. bubble-card ( if you use here the Room as String, it works. )

Like this one works with String as Area:

type: custom:config-template-card
variables:
  - ogb_room: states['select.ogb_rooms'].state
entities:
  - select.ogb_rooms
card:
  type: custom:auto-entities
  card:
    type: grid
    columns: 1
    square: false
  card_param: cards
  filter:
    include:
      - area: "FlowerTent"
        domain: light
        options:
          type: custom:bubble-card
          card_type: button
          button_type: button
          show_attribute: false
          show_last_changed: true
          icon: mdi:light-switch
          show_state: true
    exclude: []
  sort:
    method: state
    reverse: true
  show_empty: true

type: custom:config-template-card
variables:
  - ogb_room: states['select.ogb_rooms'].state
entities:
  - select.ogb_rooms
card:
  type: custom:auto-entities
  card:
    type: grid
    columns: 1
    square: false
  card_param: cards
  filter:
    include:
      - area: ${ogb_room}
        domain: light
        options:
          type: custom:bubble-card
          card_type: button
          button_type: button
          show_attribute: false
          show_last_changed: true
          icon: mdi:light-switch
          show_state: true
    exclude: []
  sort:
    method: state
    reverse: true
  show_empty: true

If you need a room sensor for current all rooms to select, you can use the opengrowbox-ha integration for no need to itself.

Also, if try to get that over templates in auto-enties I also don't get any result.

Looks like it's relating to the template engine

Or is the problem related to my YAML ? Maybe someone have an idea.

Thank you! 🍻

Combining 3 custom-components, that is some challenging stuff.
I can't follow completely why do you assume this is a bubble-card problem?

Hello,

If I use normal entity card as example, it works fine.

See here

type: custom:tabbed-card
tabs:
  - card:
      type: custom:config-template-card
      variables:
        ogb_room: states['select.ogb_rooms'].state
      entities:
        - select.ogb_rooms
      card:
        type: vertical-stack
        cards:
          - type: custom:auto-entities
            card:
              type: entities
              name: Other Options
              title: |
                Room Optionen
            filter:
              include:
                - area: ${ogb_room}
                  domain: select
              exclude:
                - name: "*Select*"
                - name: "*Own*"
                - name: "*GLS*"
                - name: "*Light*"
    attributes:
      label: Modes
      icon: mdi:auto-mode
layout_options:
  grid_columns: 4
  grid_rows: auto

What I think is that the card can't work with hat array/list of entities if they are from a var.

I just want to get the list / array of entities dynamic with in the bubble card.

Tried many things, what I found is that problem is with $vars. As I work with "Strings" and tell the "area" as String

Bubble card can display me the entities but not from the var.

Hope that helps to understand what I mean.

Thanks

Maybe I'm doing something wrong.
But I'm unable to get variables working directly.

Through some hack-around you are able to open the JavaScript-debugger in the developer-tools.
Even there I was not able to read the variable "BEAR" directly.

The following did work though.
So I still think this is not a bubble-card problem.

type: custom:config-template-card
variables:
  - states['input_text.help_house_testtext']
  - BEAR: light
entities:
  - ${(() => {return vars[0].entity_id; })()}
card:
  type: custom:auto-entities
  card:
    type: grid
    columns: 1
    square: false
    something: ${(() =>{ console.log('log1'); return vars[1].BEAR;})()}
  card_param: cards
  filter:
    include:
      - domain: ${(() =>{ console.log('domainlog'); return vars[1].BEAR;})()}
        options:
          type: custom:bubble-card
          card_type: button
          button_type: state
          show_attribute: false
          show_last_changed: true
          show_state: true
    exclude: []
  sort:
    method: state
    reverse: true
  show_empty: true
