Vedetta 0.5.0 · Telaio

🎉 Vedetta 0.5.0 · Telaio

Telaio is Italian for frame. The frame of Vedetta has been rebuilt — and on top of it come new windows, new small joys and a lot of care. This is a big, happy update. Thank you to everyone who sent a report and an export: several fixes in this version come straight from them.

What's new

• 🗂️ Search methods, in three tabs. Initial, Associative and Deep, each with its functions in panels by risk and counters that follow your switches. Every change is saved in order, even if you click fast.
• 👁️ Ignored devices, redone. A fixed-size window, the three dots on every row with Restore and the new Forget (the app forgets what it remembers about the device), a round + to ignore by hand, and Restore all / Forget all. Every action has a 5-second countdown: the pressed item becomes Undo with a colour sliding across it, and a notice says what happened.
• ⌨️ Guided typing for MAC and IP addresses: the colons appear by themselves, and in an IP the right arrow writes the dot.
• 🧭 Two different devices at one address. When the router hands the same address to two devices that are on in turn (a laptop and a console), the card keeps the name you chose — always — and Vedetta now says so, with the reasons. It stays silent when it cannot be sure.
• ⭐ A small invitation, once. After a few days, a star on the menu button invites you to star the project. It is just a link, shown once in the life of an installation; nothing is sent anywhere, and the option star_hint: false switches it off.
• ⚡ Speed buttons with their times (10 s, 30 s, 1 min) and the version in the menu.
• 🧱 Tidier code under the hood (frontend in parts, backend in packages) and a long stress test on a real Home Assistant.

Help it get better

A device recognised wrongly or not found? Report it (attach the encrypted export, it is safe to post) or say hello in the Discussions. And if Vedetta named your devices right, a ⭐ helps others find it. 💙
