Changelog

3.0.3

README and docs only; the panel is unchanged since 3.0.2.

  • A 40-second demo video, playing on the docs home page; the README header links to it.
  • New docs page Best experience: make HaCasa Nova your start page, hide the sidebar, wall tablet tips. Linked from the README.
  • The Cards page in the docs shows a picture of every card.

3.0.2

  • The README now displays properly inside HACS: one logo image that reads on light and dark backgrounds instead of a light/dark switch HACS cannot show, plain notes instead of GitHub-only alert boxes, and absolute links.

3.0.1

The HaCasa logo is back (#159).

  • The original HaCasa logo by Fredrik Persson is used again: in the panel (top left), the README and the docs site.
  • New icon hacasa:logo, registered by the panel, for the sidebar (sidebar_icon: hacasa:logo) or anywhere else Home Assistant takes an icon. Load the file with frontend: extra_module_url so the icon is there at startup; see the installation guide.

3.0.0 · HaCasa Nova

The HaCasa reboot. A complete rewrite as a Home Assistant panel, built on the Homio design by iamtherufus. Nothing from v2 carries over; v2 lives on the legacy branch.

  • One file, hacasa-nova.js, usable as a sidebar panel (panel_custom) or as a dashboard card (custom:hacasa-nova-card). No other frontend dependencies.
  • Rooms built from Home Assistant areas, with photos, temperature and humidity.
  • Home view with greeting, weather, notification line, status pills, quick actions and home cards.
  • Cards for lights, switches, smart plugs, power strips, appliances, media, climate, covers, fans, locks, vacuums, humidifiers, sensors, cameras, groups, scenes, light scene presets and Jinja template cards.
  • Built-in Sensors, Energy, Automations, Cameras and System pages.
  • Setup wizard, settings page and per-card settings, stored per Home Assistant user.
  • Search, presence, alarm keypad, doorbell camera popup, modes, idle screen.
  • English and Dutch.

Known issues

Tracked in #158. The main ones:

  • Template cards, your own notification lines and the System page's host info need an administrator account; for other users they stay empty without a hint (#144).
  • The font is loaded from Google Fonts (#145).
  • Automatic room mode shows at most 9 rooms (#146).
  • Built-in page addresses are Dutch (/instellingen, /sensoren …) and an area with the same name can't be opened (#147).
  • The dashboard card only works in a Panel view (#148).
  • Rooms without a photo cause a burst of 404s in the browser console (#149).
  • The plug timer runs in the browser and stops when the panel closes (#150).
