Configuration

All options can be configured in the Home Assistant editor. But you can find more details and the YAML in the documentation below.

Main options (YAML + description)

Name Type Requirement Supported options Description
type string Required custom:bubble-card Type of the card
card_type string Required button, cover, empty-column, horizontal-buttons-stack, media-player, pop-up or separator Type of the Bubble Card, see below
styles object list Optional Any CSS stylesheets Allows you to customize your Bubble Card CSS, see styling



Pop-up

readme-pop-up

This card allows you to convert any vertical stack into a pop-up. Each pop-up is hidden by default and can be opened by targeting its link (e.g. '#pop-up-name'), with any card that supports the navigate action, or with the horizontal buttons stack that is included.

Important

This card must be placed within a vertical stack card at the topmost position to function properly. To avoid misalignment with your view, place vertical stacks/pop-ups after all other dashboard cards. In a section view (recommended), you can place them anywhere. It should be called from the same view to work.

Tip

Pop-up trigger

This feature allows you to open a pop-up based on the state of any entity, for example, you can open a "Security" pop-up with a camera when a person is in front of your house. You can also create a toggle helper (input_boolean) and trigger its opening/closing in an automation.

Opening a pop-up when a binary_sensor is on
type: custom:bubble-card
card_type: pop-up
hash: '#kitchen'
name: Security
icon: mdi:video
trigger_entity: binary_sensor.front_door_motion
trigger_state: 'on'
trigger_close: true

Different ways to close a pop-up

They are many ways to close a pop-up. For instance, you can swipe from the pop-up header to the bottom, by doing a long swipe inside the pop-up to the bottom, by pressing Escape on desktop, by removing the hash in the URL or by simply pressing the close button.

Pop-up initialization fix

If you notice that pop-up content appears upon page load, consider installing this fix as an additional module.

Installation

You can do this by adding bubble-pop-up-fix.js to your configuration.yaml like so:

frontend:
  extra_module_url:
    - /hacsfiles/Bubble-Card/bubble-pop-up-fix.js

If you didn't install it with HACS, change the path accordingly. Then, clear your browser cache.

For Android Home Assistant Companion App users, you can close the app, then clear the app cache. If it's still not working, you can close and restart the app again.

For iOS Home Assistant Companion App users, you can go to your Home Assistant settings, then navigate to Companion App > Debug > Clear Frontend Cache (or something similar), then refresh the page or restart the app.

For previous users of the Optimized mode, you will need to replace your type: custom:bubble-pop-up with this in YAML mode:

type: vertical-stack
cards:
  - type: custom:bubble-card
    card_type: pop-up

  2. This vertical-stack must be before all your other cards in your view order
  3. Now add a Bubble Card with the Pop-up type
  4. Just fill in the Hash input and the ones you need
A pop-up
type: vertical-stack
cards:
  - type: custom:bubble-card
    card_type: pop-up
    hash: '#kitchen'
    name: Kitchen
    icon: mdi:fridge
    entity: light.kitchen
A button to open the pop-up

    margin_top_desktop: calc(100vh - 400px)



Horizontal buttons stack

readme-horizontal-buttons-stack

This card is a good companion to the pop-up card, allowing you to open the corresponding pop-ups. It also allows you to open any page of your dashboard. In addition, you can add your motion/occupancy sensors so that the order of the buttons adapts according to the room you just entered. This card is scrollable, remains visible, and acts as a footer.

Important

This card has to be the last one in your view (after every card and pop-up). It can't be inside any stack.

Button

readme-button-without-sub-buttons

This card allows you to control your entities and can be customized in many ways. To access color / control of an entity, simply tap on the icon.

Tip

What are the differences between all the button types?

  • The button switch is the default one. By default, it toggles an entity and its background color changes based on the entity’s state or the color of a light.

  • The button slider can control the brightness of a light, the volume of a media player, the position of a cover, and it also supports input numbers. Its background color can change based on the color of a light.

  • The button state is perfect for displaying information from a sensor or any entity. When you press it, it will show the "More info" panel of the entity. Its background color does not change.

  • The button name is the only one that doesn't need an entity and allows you to display a short text, a name or a title. You can also add some actions to it. Its background color does not change.

Card layouts

My-Bubble-Card-dashboard

Bubble Card fully supports the Home Assistant section view, you can change the card layout to make the card bigger and also change the number of columns or rows the card should occupy in your section view (only on the cards that support that option). These layouts are also supported in all other view types.

Available card layouts

Layout Description
normal The regular layout (not optimized for the section view)
large A larger layout (optimized for the section view)
large_2_rows A larger layout with 2 rows of sub-buttons (optimized for the section view)

Example

Tap, double tap and hold actions

You can also use Home Assistant default tap actions, double tap actions and hold actions on the cards that supports this option. For example, this allows you to display the “more info” window by holding a button icon or running a service when a sub-button is pressed.

Action options

Options (YAML + description)

Name Type Supported options Description
action string more-info, toggle, call-service, navigate, url, fire-dom-event, none Action to perform
target object Only works with call-service. Follows the home-assistant syntax
navigation_path string Any path of your dashboard Path to navigate to (e.g. '#kitchen' for opening a pop-up) when action defined as navigate
url_path string Any link URL to open on click (e.g. https://www.google.com) when action is url
service string Any service Service to call (e.g. media_player.media_play_pause) when action defined as call-service
data or service_data object Any service data Service data to include (e.g. entity_id: media_player.kitchen) when action defined as call-service
confirmation object See confirmation Display a confirmation pop-up (not a Bubble Card one), overrides the default confirmation object

Example

A button to open a pop-up
type: custom:bubble-card
card_type: button
button_type: name
name: Kitchen
icon: mdi:fridge
button_action:
  tap_action:
    action: navigate
    navigation_path: '#kitchen'



Styling

You can add custom styles in the editor or by adding styles: | in YAML without using card-mod which allows you to modify the CSS style of all the cards.

Tip

To understand which style classes can be modified, you can take a look at the src/cards folder in this repository. In each card folder, you will find a file named styles.ts. These files contain all the applied styles.

You can also find a lot of examples on the Home Assistant forum by doing a bit of searching.

The Bubble theme for Home Assistant (like on the screenshots) can be found here.

Important

Please note that you will have to add !important; to some CSS styles that are already defined (see examples below).

Examples

Changing the font size of any Bubble Card
styles: |
  * { 
    font-size: 16px !important;
  }
Changing the background color of a single button in an horizontal buttons stack
styles: >
  /* Selector for the '#kitchen' button */
  .kitchen > .color-background {
    background-color: blue !important;
  }
Changing the background color of a button
styles: | 
  .bubble-button-card-container {
    background: rgba(12,120,50,0.5) !important;
  }

To change the color when it's on take a look at the style templates below.

Changing the color of a button slider
styles: |
  .bubble-range-fill { 
    background: rgba(79, 69, 87, 1) !important;
    opacity: 1 !important;
  }
Changing the line color of a separator
styles: |
  .bubble-line {
    background: var(--primary-text-color);
    opacity: 0.1;
  }
Changing the color of an icon
styles: |
  .bubble-icon {
    color: white !important;
  }

For an horizontal buttons stack icon.

.kitchen > .bubble-icon {
  color: grey !important
}
Changing the background color of an icon container
styles: |
  .bubble-icon-container {
    background: rgb(230, 128, 41);
  }
Changing the size of the sub-buttons (perfect for the large layout)
styles: |
  .bubble-sub-button {
    height: 48px !important;
    min-width: 48px !important;
  }
Changing the background color of the second sub-button
styles: |
  .bubble-sub-button-2 {
    background-color: blue !important;
  }
Changing the size of an icon

For the main icon.

styles: |
  .bubble-icon {
    --mdc-icon-size: 26px !important;
  }

For the sub-button icons.

styles: |
  .bubble-sub-button-icon {
    --mdc-icon-size: 26px !important;
  }
Using a picture rather than an icon in a sub button
sub_button:
  - icon: none
styles: |-
  .bubble-sub-button-1 {
    background-image: url("/local/pictures/your_picture.jpg");
    background-size: cover;
  }

Just upload this picture in a “pictures” folder (or the name you want) in the Home Assistant “www” folder.

    margin-right: 0px !important;
  }

Sub-buttons-everywhere


Templates

Advanced users can add templates in JS directly in their custom styles (Bubble Card doesn’t support Jinja templates). For example, this allows you to dynamically change an icon, the name or the color of an element, to show or hide an element conditionnaly (like a sub-button), or almost anything based on a state, an attribute and more.

Tip

More information about JS templates here. My advice is to always take a look at your browser console to be sure that everything is working correctly.

Available variables and functions

Variables

You have access to these variables in most cards:

  • state will return the state of your defined entity.

  • entity will return your entity you defined like switch.test in this example.

  • icon can be used like this to change the icon icon.setAttribute("icon", "mdi:lightbulb").

  • subButtonIcon[0] can be used like this to change the first sub-button icon subButtonIcon[0].setAttribute("icon", "mdi:lightbulb"), [0] is the first sub-button icon, [1] the second...

  • card will return the card element in the DOM.

  • hass is an advanced variable that allows you even more control, for example you can return the state of light.kitchen like this hass.states['light.kitchen'].state or an attribute like this hass.states[entity].attributes.brightness.

  • this will return a lot of usefull informations about your setup and dashboard, only use this if you know what you are doing.

Functions (getWeatherIcon)

You have access to all the global JS functions, but you have also access to:

  • getWeatherIcon can be used to return a weather icon based on a state that return the weather. For example, you can can do this ${subButtonIcon[2].setAttribute("icon", getWeatherIcon(hass.states['sensor.weather_forecast_daily'].attributes.forecast[0]?.condition))} to change the third sub-button icon to today's weather icon, .forecast[1]?.condition is for tomorrow...

    You will have to create a template sensor for that. Here is what you can add in your configuration.yaml:

      - trigger:
          - platform: time_pattern
            hours: /2
        action:
          - service: weather.get_forecasts
            data:
              type: daily
            target:
              entity_id: weather.home
            response_variable: daily
        sensor:
          - name: Weather Forecast Daily
            unique_id: weather_forecast_daily
            state: "{{ now().isoformat() }}"
            attributes:
              forecast: "{{ daily['weather.home'].forecast }}"

Examples

Changing the background color of a button that is red when it's off and green when it's on
type: custom:bubble-card
card_type: button
entity: switch.test
name: Test
styles: |
  .bubble-button-background {
    opacity: 1 !important;
    background-color: ${state === 'on' ? 'blue' : 'red'} !important;
  }
Changing the background color of a button based on an entity for the horizontal buttons stack
styles: |
  .kitchen > .color-background {
    background-color: ${hass.states['light.kitchen'].state === 'on' ? 'blue' : 'red'} !important;
  }
Showing/Hiding a sub-button conditionnaly

This one is showing the first sub-button only when my vacuum is stuck.

styles: |
  .bubble-sub-button-1 {
    display: ${hass.states['vacuum.downstairs'].state === 'error' ? '' : 'none'} !important;
  }

This one is showing a sub-button when the battery is below 10%. Usefull with a sub-button that shows "Low battery".

styles: |
  .bubble-sub-button-1 {
    display: ${hass.states['vacuum.downstairs'].attributes.battery_level <= 10 ? '' : 'none'} !important;
  }
Changing an icon or sub-button icon conditionnaly

This one is changing a button icon only when a vacuum is stuck.

styles: |
  ${icon.setAttribute("icon", hass.states['vacuum.downstairs'].state === 'error' ? 'mdi:alert' : 'mdi:robot-vacuum')}

This one is changing the first sub-button icon only when a vacuum is stuck.

styles: |
  ${subButtonIcon[0].setAttribute("icon", hass.states['vacuum.downstairs'].state === 'error' ? 'mdi:alert' : 'mdi:robot-vacuum')}
Changing an icon or sub-button icon color conditionnaly

This one is changing a button icon color based on its state.

styles: |
  .bubble-icon {
    color: ${hass.states['light.your_light'].state === 'on' ? 'green' : 'red'} !important;
  }

This one is changing a sub-button icon color based on its state. .bubble-sub-button-1 is the first sub-button, replace 1 if you want to change another sub-button icon.

styles: |
  .bubble-sub-button-1 > ha-icon {
    color: ${hass.states['light.your_light'].state === 'on' ? 'green' : 'red'} !important;
  }
Animating a fan icon conditionnaly

This one is rotating a button icon when a fan is on.

styles: |-
  .bubble-icon {
    animation: ${hass.states['fan.you_fan'].state === 'on' ? 'slow-rotate 2s linear infinite' : ''};
  }
  @keyframes slow-rotate {
    0% { transform: rotate(0deg); }
    100% { transform: rotate(360deg); }
  }
Templating a button name

This one is changing a button name/state with "It's currently sunny" depending on your weather.

styles: |
  ${card.querySelector('.bubble-name').innerText = "It's currently " + hass.states['weather.home'].state}

If you want to template the state (.bubble-state) don't toggle show_state: true just toggle show_attribute: true without any attribute.

Advanced example: Changing the color of a sub-button when a pop-up is open
styles: |
  ${window.addEventListener('location-changed', () => { 
  card.querySelector('.bubble-sub-button-1').style.backgroundColor = this.location.href.includes('#kitchen') ? 'blue' : '';
  })}
Advanced example: Templating a separator name based on a state translated to your language

You can use hass.formatEntityState(state) to transtale a state and hass.formatEntityAttributeValue(state, "attribute") to translate an attribute.

This one is changing the name and the icon based on the weather, "Nuageux" means "Cloudy" in French.

image

type: custom:bubble-card
card_type: separator
icon: mdi:weather-cloudy
sub_button:
  - entity: sensor.outside_temperature
    icon: mdi:thermometer
    name: Temperature
    show_state: true
    show_background: false
styles: >
  .bubble-line {
    background: white;
    opacity: 1;
  }

  ${card.querySelector('.bubble-name').innerText =
  hass.formatEntityState(hass.states['weather.maison'])}

  ${icon.setAttribute("icon",
  getWeatherIcon(hass.states['weather.maison'].state))}



Custom components conflicts

⚠️ For now there are some features that are not working with:

  • Kiosk mode, but this is fixed in Kiosk mode v6.0.1
