🍄 Newly Added: Mushroom Styling 🍄

I've been really enjoying Paul Bottein's beautiful Mushroom card collection, so I've added new styles to make the card feel at home in your mushroom garden. Jump to Configuring the Mushroom Style for examples.

Examples of mushroom-styled cards

The card is also well tested. There are 24 tests, and they've helped me catch a few bugs already. 🐞

Installation

Timer Bar Card is available from HACS, the Home Assisstant Community Store.

If you don't have HACS installed, follow the manual installation instructions.

Configure the Card

The card displays Home Assistant timers with minimal configuration.

YAML ConfigurationTimer Bar Card

type: custom:timer-bar-card
entities:
  - timer.alarm
  - timer.alarm_two
  - timer.alarm_three

Turn On a Switch for Some Time, Then Turn it Off

Cat with a box

This is a common use case of the card, so here's a full example of how you can create a button on your dashboard to turn on a switch entity, count down ten seconds, then turn the entity off. This takes a few different components in Home Assistant: The Timer Bar Card, a Script, and an Automation (optional)

While the script is shown in YAML mode, you can alternatively create it in the visual editor (the Scripts tab in the same area as Automations).

Card ConfigurationScript Configuration

type: custom:timer-bar-card
entities:
  - switch.cat_toy
duration:
  script: script.switch_on_10s
tap_action:
  action: call-service
  service: script.switch_on_10s
hold_action:
  action: more-info

alias: Turn the switch on then off
sequence:
  - service: homeassistant.turn_on
    data: {}
    target:
      entity_id: switch.cat_toy
  - delay: "00:00:10"
  - service: homeassistant.turn_off
    data: {}
    target:
      entity_id: switch.cat_toy
mode: single # also consider restart

In this example, the switch's id is switch.cat_toy and the script's id is script.switch_on_10s.

The card is given two actions: clicking/tapping it will calll the script, and holding it will bring up the switch entity's information. The script uses the Call Service action to turn on and off the switch.

⚠️ Make sure that if you're creating the script from the UI, you do not rename the delay action. The delay needs to have the duration at the end of its name (e.g. delay action 0:01:12)—this is how the card knows how long the timer is. You shouldn't need to rename the action in most cases, except if the duration is really small (sometimes the automatic name is delay for 10 seconds which does not parse).

The script's name is parsed because finding its true duration would require the card to independently access the Home Assistant API rather than using the shared state. I'm trying to keep this simple.

Using a script has several advantages:

  • It does not interfere with manual operation of the switch.
  • You can create multiple buttons to turn the same switch on for different amounts of time.
  • If you create a new script for each button, the timer bar will only show on the button that was pressed.

However, you may wish to ensure that even under manual operation, the switch is never turned on for more than ten seconds. In this case, you can add an automation that is trigggered when switch.cat_toy's state changes to on and that calls the script.turn_on service with entity script.script_on_10s.

Simplifying with only an Automation + Card

If both the automation and the button are going to keep the switch on for the same amount of time, you can simplify the setup and not use a script. Add the delay and switch off services to the automation (or set the automation to only trigger when the switch is on for 10s) and change the card's duration: script option to duration: fixed: "00:00:10". Also change the tap action to either call the switch's turn on service or toggle the switch. If you change the automation's delay in the future, make sure to update the card too.

📦 Working with New Integrations

Visual Depiction of how the options work together

The diagram above shows the minimal configuration you'll need to make the card show the timer. For each of these properties, you'll need to find an entity (doesn't have to be the one you're displaying in the card) that has this information in its state or attributes. The only exception is Guess Mode, which is an option you set on the card to make it guess when the timer is active in lieu of configuring an Active State.

⏰ There is an option missing in this diagram: Remaining Time. Some integrations have a Remaining Time attribute, but the attribute does not update every second like a countdown! This is to reduce the strain on your Home Assistant: Lot of entities updating every second could slow it down.

However, some integrations do update a Remaining Time attribute (or create an entity whose state is the Remaining Time and update its state every second). For these, you can use (Remaining Time + one of Start Time/Duration + Guess Mode or Active State) or (Remaining Time + Active State)

The Developer Tools are a great resource for viewing states and attributes.


Developer Tools Screenshot

📝 In the screenshot above, Duration and End Time are the attributes duration and finishes_at, and the state active can be used as the Active State.

Here's all the options you can use in the configuration. I recommend setting debug: true while setting up the card to help work through any problems.

YAML option Type Description Default
active_state string
/list
State(s) used to indicate a timer is running active, on, manual,
program, once-program
pause_state string
/list
State(s) used to indicate a timer is paused paused
waiting_state string
/list
State(s) when a timer is scheduled for later † waiting
state {fixed: string} Explicitly specify a state without an entity. -
state_attribute string Use an attribute when calculating the above. -
guess_mode bool Attempt to guess mode=active. ‡ false
start_time timeprop How the timer's start time is found {attribute: start_time}
end_time timeprop How the timer's end time is found {attribute: end_time}
duration timeprop How the timer's duration is found {attribute: duration}
remain_time timeprop How the timer's remaining time is found {attribute: remain_time}
debug bool Show debugging info in card false
timeprop = { attribute: string, units: "duration"|"hours"|"minutes"|"seconds" = "duration" }
         | { entity: string, attribute?: string, units="duration" } | { script: string }
         | { fixed: number, units="duration" } | { state: any, units="duration" }

† requires a start_time attribute to calculate when in the future the timer will start.
waiting_state and pause_state will still have an effect, but the card will disregard active_state if it can guess the timer mode.

To recap, set active_state to the state of your entity while the timer is running (usually all lowercase). If the state changes as the timer runs (for instance if the state is the number of seconds left in the timer), check if any of the attributes indicate whether the timer is running. If so, use active_state together with state_attribute, otherwise, set guess_mode: true and make sure you have two of start_time/end_time/duration set.

Specifying timers without an entity

For advanced usage, you can specify all properties of a timer directly, without using an entity. In this case, the entity field is optional, and is only used to open the more-info popup when clicked.

To do this, pass {fixed: <value>} for the state property and any 2 of the time/duration properties above. This mode ignores the *_state fields; the fixed: value must be exactly active, paused, or waiting.

Configuration of time properties (start_time, end_time, etc)

These examples all use duration, but they are applicable for all of the time properties: start_time, end_time, and remain_time as well.

1. My entity has an attribute that looks like duration (for example, timespan). Supply the following configuration:
type: custom:timer-bar-card
entities:
  - switch.my_switch
duration:
  attribute: "timespan" # If your your duration attribute looks like 0:10:00.
debug: true
2. My duration isn't in the 0:10:00 format! I need to use different units!

Use the units property and specify seconds, hours, or minutes. The default value of units is duration, which expects the hh:mm:ss (duration/remaining) or 2021-09-07T20:24:13+00:00 (start/end time) format.

duration:
  attribute: "timespan" # Should look like 10 or 10.0
  units: minutes
debug: true
3. My duration comes from another entity

Assume there's a duration slider with id input_number.slider1. The available units are the same ones as above. You can also combine entity and attribute together if you need to fetch an attribute from a different entity!

type: custom:timer-bar-card
entities:
  - switch.my_switch # ID of the switch, which provides the active/idle status
duration:
  entity: input_number.slider1
  units: minutes # Since the slider state is a number like 10.0
debug: true
4. My duration comes from the entity's state

Set duration: { state: true }. This is less common for duration, but some integrations give the End Time as an entity with format like 2021-09-07T20:24:13+00:00 (you don't need units for start/end time).

duration:
  state: true
debug: true
5. A script determins when the entitty turns off

The duration will be fetched from the length of the Delay action in the script. For this to work, the Delay action must not be renamed or configured with the alias property in the YAML.

duration:
  script: script.my_script_id
debug: true
6. Ugh. I know what the duration is but it's nowhere in Home Assistant

If there's no state or attribute in Home Assistant which shows your duration, you can give the duration to the card. The units also work here, if you don't like using the hh:mm:ss format.

type: custom:timer-bar-card
entities:
  - switch.my_switch
duration: { fixed: 0:05:00 } # 5 min
debug: true

Once the card is working properly, you can safely remove debug: true. It doesn't affect any of the functionality.

Still unclear? Don't know if you can make your entity work with the card?

🧡 Please create an issue and tell me the entity so I can improve these instructions! ❤️️

header_secondary string Optional Show additional information under header_entity ‡ -

† If you specify header_entity, the name option will no longer have any effect.
‡ See the secondary_info parameter in the entities documentation for a list of possible values.

Actions

You can also use actions with this card to trigger services or perform actions in the dashboard when the card is clicked. The action configuration options are hold_action, tap_action, and double_tap_action.

Examples

Receding progress bar

By default, the progress bar will expand. If you'd like the bar instead to shrink (as if it were counting down, rather than counting up), reverse the bar direction and invert the percentage:

Screenshot

bar_direction: rtl # omit this for a left-aligned progress bar
invert: true

This example uses the bar_radius option to round the edges of the progress bar. I like my progress bars advancing from left to right, but you can keep the bar aligned to the left by omitting bar_direction: rtl.

Screenshot

entities:
  - sensor.s14_station_status
  - sensor.s15_station_status
  - sensor.s16_station_status

  - manual
  - program
bar_width: 35%
compressed: true
filter: true # So only the running and scheduled stations are shown

Be sure to check out the Irrigation Unlimited and RainMachine examples if you use a different irrigation controller.

Using active_state, end_time, etc: The sun integration

I adore this example because it uses so many configuration options at once to create a timer I never would have dreamed of until #71. The sun entity has two states: above horizon or below horizon. The configuration defines only an end_time, letting the card pick up when the sun entity last changed states as its start times. The translations option provides alternate text to show when the timer is not running.

    active_icon: mdi:fire
    bar_height: 12px
  - elapsed: 70%
    bar_foreground: red
    active_icon: mdi:fire-alert

For each modification, you have the option of using remaining or elapsed to filter based on the time left or total time remaining in the timer. You can also use percentages (40% = 40% of duration) or durations (0:00:10 = 10 seconds). See my comment here for a more detailed example!

All modifications that match are applied, with the last modification having precedence. This means you'll likeley want to list them in increasing order of durations/percentages if using elapsed and decreasing order if using remaining, so that styles are overridden as the timer progresses farther.

Do note that remaining: 1% is equivalent to elapsed: 99%, and that for a 10 second timer remaining: "00:00:01" is equivalent to elapsed: "00:00:09".

Show only progress bar

Screenshot

type: custom:timer-bar-card
entities:
  - timer.alarm
layout: full_row  # hides the name and icon, but not time remaining
text_width: 0px # hide the time remaining

You can also choose to hide only the entity name with layout: hide_name.

Rename Entities and Statuses

Screenshot

Want to change the names of the entity statuses because they are in the wrong language or they just aren't cool enough for you? You can do that! Need to use different settings for each entity? You can do that too (replace the entity id with a YAML dict where the entity key is the ID, then you can add any other configuration option you like to change it for that entity).

You can also use these per-setting entities to rename invidual rows of the card, override the icon for a row, or in fact change almost any setting available in the card.

type: custom:timer-bar-card
entities:
  - timer.alarm
  - entity: timer.alarm_two
    name: "Alarm Two"
    icon: mdi:circle
    translations:
      idle: Gas, gas, gas!

P.S. If you'd like to change the text shown when the timer is active, then check out the format option!

Use with Paper Buttons Row

Screenshot

The card supports usage with the amazing Paper Buttons Row element! You can add extend_paper_buttons_row to your configuration to add buttons to the side of the card!

Not all options (namely hide_badge and hide_state) are not supported. Please create an issue if you need these.

type: custom:timer-bar-card
entities:
  - timer.alarm
extend_paper_buttons_row:
  position: right
  buttons:
    - icon: mdi:party-popper

Use Templates in Configuration

The card by itself does not support using templates to customize the name and icon. However, using a plugin like the Templatable Configuration Card or Card Templater, you can customize the name of entities, the icons, or any configuration option in the card.

I like the latter card since it uses the same templating format as Home Assistant, but the latest release (as of June 2023) with important fixes is still in beta and it takes longer to render the templates. This delays the rendering of the timer card enough to trigger the alert about the time being out of sync. Thefore, I recommend you use the former card unless you do not have the time to learn its unique templating language.

Mushroom Style

🍄 These styles require the Mushroom Card collection to be installed.

To enable the mushroom style, you'll need to configure the card with entity rather than entities and add the mushroom option. You can show multiple cards side by side using the Grid Card.

Setting mushroom: changes some of the card defaults, including rounded corners and the bar color, to reduce the amount of configuration you need to make the card look mushroomy. Nevertheless, you can still customize these options!

Timer Bar CardCard Configuration

type: custom:timer-bar-card
entity: timer.alarm_two
mushroom:

Under the mushroom option you can supply the options you'd normally give the mushroom card. Not every timer bar card configuration option is supported here (such as the layout option), and not every mushroom option is supported as well. What you get instead is a Frankenstein baby of both cards.

Timer Bar CardCard Configuration

duration:
  fixed: '00:10:00'
invert: true
bar_direction: rtl
bar_width: 60%
mushroom:
  layout: vertical
  color: green

You can also configure these Mushroom options:

  • primary_info and secondary_info can be any of name, state, last-changed, last-updated, or none to change the information shown on the card.
  • You can also leave these unconfigured and alternatively display custom text by editing name (primary info) and format (secondary info). Combine with templates to mimic mushroom-template-card.
  • icon_type can be icon (default) or none (no icon).
  • icon_color sets both bar + icon color just like the color option. It's there to be consistent with the original Mushroom options.
  • fill_container makes the card expand to the surrounding grid.

Manual installation

  1. Download timer-bar-card.js from the latest release and move this file to the config/www folder.
  2. Ensure you have advanced mode enabled (accessible via your username in the bottom left corner)
  3. Go to Configuration -> Lovelace Dashboards -> Resources.
  4. Add /local/timer-bar-card.js with type JS module.
  5. Refresh the page? Or restart Home Assistant? The card should eventually be there.

Using in your own custom cards

If you're publishing a custom card for Lovelace and would like to use the timer bar card inside of it, you can install the card via NPM as a dependency:

npm install --save lovelace-timer-bar-card

To avoid conflicts with the timer-bar-card-entity-row element this plugin defines, you'll need to give your custom element a different tag name.

import { fillConfig, TimerBarEntityRow } from 'lovelace-timer-bar-card/src/timer-bar-entity-row';

// Assign the tag <my-card-timer-bar-entity-row> to the entity row element
window.customElements.define('my-card-timer-bar-entity-row', TimerBarEntityRow);

// Use like this
const config = fillConfig({
    // extra customization on top of default config
});
return html`<my-card-timer-bar-entity-row
              .config=${config} .hass=${hass}
            ></my-card-timer-bar-entity-row>`;

For an example of using the timer bar card as a dependency, you can view the source code of the OpenSprinkler card.

Themes? Multicolored icons? Where?

The green and reddish-orange theme (which I called Earth) as well as the gradient theme can be found here. Neither are polished and both need work.

For multicolored icons, you can use this super-duper-hacky frontend module here until some form of support officially lands in Home Assistant. I would not rely on my module. Its purpose is merely to produce pretty screenshots.

Troubleshooting

Sync Issues

Home Assistant Time: All Home Assistant timers, automations, etc. are run using the local time of whatever device is running Home Assistant, be it a Raspberry Pi, virtual machine, etc. If the timer will do something important at 5 PM, it will happen whenever your Home Assistant device thinks 5 PM is.

App Time: One often views the Home Assistant dashboard on another device like a phone or tablet. These devices have separate clocks, and often they are synced using the Network Time Protocol. If the syncing is set up correctly, the two clocks will never drift more than 10 or so milliseconds apart.

Home Assistant does not provide any API to figure out what it believes the time to be. Instead, the card reads the time from the app (Home Assistant App or browser) to calculate how much time remains in a timer. Any discrepancies between the two times will affect the accuracy of the card. If the clocks are more than one second out of sync, the card will display an incorrect amount of time remaining.

If the Home Assistant and App Times are more than 0.5 seconds out of sync, the card will display a warning to alert you of the problem. In this case, I suggest you first visit a website such as time.is or use the command line to compare each device's time to a trustworthy source (such as time.is or Google's server). Usually, one device will have an accurate time while the other won't. Make sure the inaccurate device has NTP correctly set up (here's a guide for Raspberry Pi). For other devices, the system preferences will often have a setting like "Set time and date automatically" that should be enabled).

sync_issues: fix

You can also simply disable the card's warning using the following configuration option:

sync_issues: ignore
