Surveillance-card: semi not working with HACS

[tommyjlong]

I use HACS to track and update this card. When upgrading to 0.0.4 (using HACS), each thumbnail now contains two semi-transparent circles, but I'm not sure what this is all about. One appears to be for taking a snapshot, and I think the other is for recording. I'm getting an error in Chrome Inspect saying it can not find record.svg and snapshot.svg. HACS did not pickup these svg files. I did download them into the directory where HACS stores the surveillance-card, but this didn't work. The error seems to be the javascript code expects these files to be located in www(or local)/surveillance-card/ but this is not where HACS keeps the surveillance-card.

same issue. HACS didn't even seem to download the images. Had to grab them manually.

Thanks for pointing out where they were expected. For now, this workaround of creating a symlink where it was expected got the images to show up:

root@freenas: www # ln -s community/surveillance-card/ .
root@freenas: www # ls -l

would you mind explaining how you went about doing this?

Not sure understand your confusion with the steps above. The "www" directory is located within your Home Assistant configuration directory. The ln -s community/surveillance-card/ . is what creates the symlink. The example above was done on a FreeBSD jail where HA is running. The steps would be identical on Linux. Hope that helps.

FWIW when I "reinstall" the this plugin it actually deleted the SVG files. Put another way I am able to manually download the files using the wget commands per the readme.md and then do a "reinstall" via the add-ons place and the it wil actually deletes the svg files I manually downloaded

@niemyjski - Any thoughts here ?

[niemyjski]

I've seen this too but I haven't had time to look into it. I wonder if there is something excluding svg's from being copied? I would think we would just be using font icons that are built into HA. Can someone submit a pr for this?

[MisterTFM]

Same issue, using HACS, it didn't download the *.svg files.

[niemyjski]

Can you please submit a pr that resolves this issue

I just resolved this issue in the latest commit
