right config directory

[pilot1981]

Hi, I have HASSIO version 0.91, but I don't find this directory: /conf/custom_widgets folder

It's the same create this one?

/config/custom_widgets

I have to declare it anywhere?

regards

Yes, it is the right directory to put the folder and files in. It should be the same folder where appdaemon.yaml is. I am not using hassio so I am not sure about the folder structure there.

thanks for quick reply!

so the result in my HASSIO could be this:

• /config/custom_widgets/basevacuum folder
• /config/custom_widgets/vacuum.yaml file
• /config/custom_css/img folder
• /config/custom_css/img folder

?

or you suggested:

• /config/appdaemon/conf/custom_widgets/basevacuum folder
• /config/appdaemon/conf/custom_widgets/vacuum.yaml file
• /config/appdaemon/conf/custom_css/img folder
• /config/appdaemon/conf/custom_css/img folder

?

Hi, I found and tested successful the right directory in HASSIO v 0.91.0:

/config/appdaemon/custom_widgets/basevacuum folder /config/appdaemon/custom_widgets/vacuum.yaml file /config/appdaemon/custom_css/img folder

in this way no error are found in log file, but when I go in the dashboard I receive this error:

Unable to find widget type 'vacuum'

what else it's wrong?

[tjntomas]

The appdaemon folder in hassio appears to be /config/appdaemon so your last post is correct.

[tjntomas]

Did you restart appdaemon?

[pilot1981]

yes, I understood I have to write a more complete dashboard file as this one in Roomba.dash file:

title: Roomba widget_dimensions: [120, 120] widget_margins: [5, 5] columns: 8

label: widget_type: label text: My vacuum cleaner

vacuum: widget_type: vacuum entity: switch.roomba title: Roomba 521

layout:

• vacuum(3x2)

vacuum_widget_style: $background_style vacuum_title_style: $style_title

Now I have a problem to find entity object, but this isn't problem of your code..I let you know when all work fine to finish integration...

sorry a warning in my logs:

2019-04-06 00:02:33.949349 WARNING Variable definition not found in CSS Skin variables: $vacuum_title_style 2019-04-06 00:02:33.950146 WARNING Variable definition not found in CSS Skin variables: $vacuum_widget_style

you know how to solve?

[tjntomas]

vacuum_widget_style: $background_style vacuum_title_style: $style_title

These entries need to be in a custom skin in the variables.yaml file. If you don't have a custom skin, make a new folder in custom_css and name it default. Then copy variables.yaml and dashboard.css from here. Then edit the variables.yaml file and add the vacuum_widget_style and vacuum_title_style lines to the file.
