popup-card
==========

# This is deprecated - Use [browser_mod](https://github.com/thomasloven/hass-browser_mod) instead

Replace the more-info dialog of one entity with a custom lovelace card

![popup-card](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1299821/48152470-4b530700-e2c4-11e8-8a4d-d6a2121fc4c5.png)

# Breaking changes!
popup-card is *no longer a card*. See usage instructions below.

# Installation instructions

This card requires [card-tools](https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-card-tools) to be installed.

For installation instructions [see this guide](https://github.com/thomasloven/hass-config/wiki/Lovelace-Plugins).

The recommended type of this plugin is: `js`

> Note: By adding `?debug` after the url (`&debug` if you already have `?track=true`) popup-card will print some extra information to your browser console when you open a more-info dialog. This may or may not be helpful if you run into problems.

### If you are using [custom\_updater](https://github.com/custom-components/custom_updater):
```yaml
resources:
- url: /customcards/github/thomasloven/card-tools.js?track=true
  type: js
- url: /customcards/github/thomasloven/popup-card.js?track=true
  type: js
```

# Usage instructions

First of all, there are a few things you need to know about what this plugin is and is *not*.

Normally, when you click e.g. a line in an [entities card](https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/entities/), the `more-info` dialog for that entity is opened. Using this plugin, a card of your choosing can be displayed *instead*.

Things to note:

- This will replace *every* more-info dialog for the chosen entity on the same view. There is no way to open the popup-card when clicking one thing, and the normal more-info dialog when clicking another - *In the same view*. However:
- The opened card doesn't need to be related to the chosen entity in any way.
- By default - if everything is working - you will not see *any difference*. Until you open the card by clicking something else, nothing will pop up.
- That means that the popup-card does *not* magically appear by itself. You need to supply the means to open it. (I'm really rubbing this in at this point, but you wonuldn't believe the ammount of questions I get about this)
- This is *not* a card and should *not* be configured as if it is.

Still with me? Ok. Let's go.

There are two ways to define a popup-card. Either per-view, or globally.

### Per-view configuration

To define a popup-card in a certain view, add a `popup_cards:` section to the views configuration:

```yaml
views:
  - title: My view
    icon: mdi:home-assistant
    popup_cards:
      # popup-card configuration goes here
    cards:
      - type: entities
        ...etc...
```

Popup-cards defined in this way will replace the more-info dialogs only in the current view.

### Global configuration

To define a popup-card in *all* views, add a `popup_cards:` section to the root of your lovelace configuration:

Popup-cards defined in this way will replace the more-info dialogs in all views.

It's possible to mix global and per-view popup-card configurations.
Per-view takes precedence.

## Popup-card configuration
Whether per-view of global, a popup-card is defined in the following form:

```yaml
  <entity id>:
    title: <title>
    large: <true/false>
    style:
      <styles>
    card:
      <card>
```

### `<entity id>`
The entity id of the entity whose more-info dialog is to be replaced, e.g. `light.bed_light`, `device_tracker.my_phone`, `sun.sun`, `sensor.dummy_sensor_1`.

### `<title>`
Required

The heading title of the popup. This is required

### `<large>`
Optional. Default: `false`

If `true` the popup will be a bit wider.

### `<styles>
Optional. Default: none

Dictionary of CSS styles to apply to the more-info-dialog root.

### `<card>`
Required

The specification of the card to pop up.

E.g:
```
type: entities
entities:
  - light.bed_light
  - type: custom:time-input-row
    entity: input_datetime.on_time
  - type: custom:time-input-row
    entity: input_datetime.off_time
  - input_boolean.weekdays_only
```

## Repeating cards

If you would like the same card to replace the more-info dialog for multiple entities, you can add a redirection to your popup card configurations on the form:

```yaml
  <entity id 1>: <entity id 2>
```

If a popup-card has been defined for `<entity id 2>`, it will now replace the more-info dialog for both `<entity id 1>` and `<entity id 2>`.

# Example configuration

```yaml
title: My awesome lovelace interface
resources:
  - url: /customcards/github/thomasloven/card-tools.js?track=true
    type: js
  - url: /customcards/github/thomasloven/popup-card.js?track=true
    type: js
views:
  - title: My view
    icon: mdi:home-assistant
    popup_cards:
      light.bed_light:
        title: Bedside lamp settings
        card:
          type: entities
          entities:
            - light.bed_light
            - type: custom:time-input-row
              entity: input_datetime.on_time
            - type: custom:time-input-row
              entity: input_datetime.off_time
            - input_boolean.weekdays_only
    cards:
      - type: entities
        entities:
          - light.bed_light
          - light.ceiling_lights
          - light.kitchen_lights
```

# FAQ

### Can a popup-card be opened programatically, e.g. by a Home Assistant automation?

No, but this can be done using [browser-commander](https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-browser-commander).

### Can the size or position of the popup be changed?

The only way to change the size is the `large` option, which does the same thing as clicking on the title.

### Can I remove the title or the X for closing the dialog?

No, but you can set an empty title `title: " "`

### Why do I need to override a more-info dialog? Can't you just make it pop-up?

Well... yes, actually you can, by using [browser-commander](https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-browser-commander) and something with a call-service tap_action.

### Why can't I open the more-info dialog of an entity from the popup-card.

Limitations of Home Assistant.
