view specific backgrounds broken?

[Fredfishface]

Hi, Great addon. Your default example (animated backgrounds for all views) works. If I add a view option for a specific path I get the same background for all views. If I add two view specific options, I don't get anything.

Windows 10, chrome, latest version of home assistant.

Doesn't Work:
animated_background:
views:
- config:
default_url: >-
/community_plugin/lovelace-animated-background/background-animations/night.html
entity: sun.sun
path: new
- config:
default_url: >-
/community_plugin/lovelace-animated-background/backgound-animations/fog.html
path: blank

Works:
animated_background:
default_url: /local/animated-background/background-animations/sunny.html
included_users:
- Villhellm
entity: "weather.dark_sky"
state_url:
'sunny': /local/animated-background/background-animations/sunny.html
'partlycloudy': /local/animated-background/background-animations/cloudy.html
'cloudy': /local/animated-background/background-animations/cloudy.html
'mostlycloudy': /local/animated-background/background-animations/mostlycloudy.html
'clear-night': /local/animated-background/background-animations/night.html
'fog': /local/animated-background/background-animations/fog.html

Doesn't Work:
animated_background:
default_url: /community_plugin/lovelace-animated-background/background-animations/sunny.html
included_users:
- Villhellm
entity: "weather.dark_sky"
state_url:
'sunny': /community_plugin/lovelace-animated-background/background-animations/sunny.html
'partlycloudy': /community_plugin/lovelace-animated-background/background-animations/cloudy.html
'cloudy': /community_plugin/lovelace-animated-background/background-animations/cloudy.html
'mostlycloudy': /community_plugin/lovelace-animated-background/background-animations/mostlycloudy.html
'clear-night': /community_plugin/lovelace-animated-background/background-animations/night.html
'fog': /community_plugin/lovelace-animated-background/background-animations/fog.html
views:
- path: gaming
config:
default_url: /community_plugin/lovelace-animated-background/background-animations/sunny.html
entity: "light.game_room"
state_url:
'on': /community_plugin/lovelace-animated-background/background-animations/sunny.html
'off': /community_plugin/lovelace-animated-background/background-animations/night.html

That is not valid YAML. Please post your configs in code blocks with proper formatting. Also if you have the lines

included_users:
  - Villhellm

the config shouldn't work unless the home assistant user you are logged in as is Villhellm.

[Fredfishface]

Leaving in Villhellm would have been a total doofus move :-).
Home Assistant 0.108.6
Frontend version: 20200407.2 - latest

Doesn't work (no backgrounds for any paths):

animated_background:
views:
- path: alarm
config:
default_url: /community_plugin/lovelace-animated-background/background-animations/fog.html

Works (all path backgrounds are sunny):

animated_background:
default_url: /community_plugin/lovelace-animated-background/background-animations/sunny.html

Doesn't Work (all backgrounds are sunny, view path is also sunny - not fog - can be any existing path):

animated_background:
default_url: /community_plugin/lovelace-animated-background/background-animations/sunny.html
views:
- path: alarm
config:
default_url: /community_plugin/lovelace-animated-background/background-animations/fog.html

When I submit, the yaml collapses. All of it is correctly formatted. If there is a trick to entering it here, please let me know.

[Villhellm]

You need to put code in code blocks. Surround the yaml with ``` on the line above and bellow
Ex:
```
animated_config:
default_url: /test
```
becomes

animated_config:
  default_url: /test

[Villhellm]

0.108.6 is not the latest, by the way. Remember it is important to always give actual version numbers as "latest" changes regularly.

[Fredfishface]

Thank you.

Home Assistant 0.109.2
Frontend version: 20200427.1 - latest

Does not work:

animated_background:
views:
- path: alarm
config:
default_url: /community_plugin/lovelace-animated-background/background-animations/fog.html

Does Work:

animated_background:
default_url: /community_plugin/lovelace-animated-background/background-animations/sunny.html

Does not Work:

animated_background:
default_url: /community_plugin/lovelace-animated-background/background-animations/sunny.html
views:
- path: alarm
config:
default_url: /community_plugin/lovelace-animated-background/background-animations/fog.html

[Fredfishface]

I placed the yaml within ```. I'll find another background solution.

[Villhellm]

This is not me being pedantic, spaces are critical in yaml. If I can't see an accurate config I can't accurately tell you what's wrong.

Are you seeing any errors in the browser console?

[Fredfishface]

I didn't believe you were.

No, the console log shows that the default animated background is loaded (which it is).

[Villhellm]

The only other thing I could think to check without more information is make sure that your path is an exact match.

[Fredfishface]

kk. I'll put some debug lines in the js and see where I end up. Thanks.

[Villhellm]

You can also set breakpoints in Chrome and follow it through each step

When I test your two "Does not work" configs and properly format the yaml it works on my machine. Be sure to update the plugin as well, I fixed a bug recently that may have been affecting one of those configs.

[Fredfishface]

Hi, Thanks for that. I found: Error handling response: TypeError: Cannot read property 'enumerateDevices' of night.html:1 undefined at get_devices (chrome-extension://gfhcppdamigjkficnjnhmnljljhagaha/content.js:119:25) at chrome-extension://gfhcppdamigjkficnjnhmnljljhagaha/content.js:100:5 Let you know.

[Villhellm]

Can you try to post your config one more time? Maybe a screenshot if you can't get the formatting to work?

[Fredfishface]

Hi, I believe I managed to post the correctly formated yaml from the raw config editor for the dashboard in https://community.home-assistant.io/t/lovelace-animated-background-based-on-entity-state/132208/36
Apologize for the delay. Work beckoned.

[Villhellm]

Your path: line is not properly indented. It needs to be on the same level as config:

[Fredfishface]

Call me doofus. I'd love to tell you that it still doesn't work but it is fixed :-). Many thanks. In addition I now know how to make custom cards.
