Showing Camera in Sidebar? about hass-config HOT 4 CLOSED

At the end of the day the sidebar is also made out of button-cards (https://github.com/custom-cards/button-card).
Button cards have the entity_picture option to show pictures/images instead of icons and/or text on the button card.

Hope this helps!

Hey @tnusch ,

thank you for that, but where should i put the Card in ?

from hass-config.

Everything goes into ui-lovelace.yaml, regardless if you choose to replace the 4 tiles in the main dashboard (e.g. hemma section) or the sidebar. The ui-lovelace.yaml file is grouped into the corresponding sections (sidebar, media etc) which you can individually change.

If you need an own template for your button card, ideally you put it under /button_card_templates/

Hey @tnusch, first of all, thank you for that. I just have the problem that it is displayed so small and I don't know how to fix it.

I have created a camera.yaml as a template, the content is:
camera:
template:
- settings
show_icon: false
show_name: false
show_state: false
show_label: false
show_entity_picture: true
show_live_stream: true
tap_action:
action: more-info
styles:
card:
- background: transparent
- border-radius: 12px
- box-shadow: none
- width: 100%
- height: auto

Unfortunately, it is displayed very small and not centered, as shown in the picture. Even in the dashboard itself, I tried, but I always encounter the problem with the size. And the frame in the background.

Do you perhaps have a tip for me?
