v0.5.19
Highlights
New debug card mode
A diagnostics view that turns bug reports into a one-click affair. Set mode: debug or pick Debug / Diagnostics in the visual editor and the card renders a complete overview of:
- Card, Home Assistant and browser versions
- ha-evcc integration status (entity count, detected vs. configured prefix)
- All discovered charge points, split into core and optional feature coverage, with the exact list of missing entity suffixes
- Site features (core + optional)
- Orphan entity groups loadpoint-like devices missing
charge_power, usually meters or non-standard names that prevent discovery - The current card configuration
- Loaded translation files
A Copy report button copies a Markdown-formatted summary to the clipboard, ready to paste straight into a bug report. An optional Mask names toggle anonymises loadpoint, vehicle and title strings before copying. No live state values or sensor data are included.
When the card shows "No loadpoints found", the empty state now offers an Open debug mode shortcut that preserves your original configuration in the report.
Plan strategies. Continuous charging & Preconditioning
The plan block (visible in loadpoint, compact and plan modes) gained two new controls that surface when ha-evcc 2026.5+ exposes the corresponding entities:
- Continuous charging toggle. Keeps the charge running without interruption once started
- Preconditioning select. Pre-heats/cools the battery before reaching the target SoC (off / minutes / hours / all)
Pending action indicators
The loadpoint header now shows live countdown chips when EVCC has scheduled a pending phase switch or PV-charging change e.g. "Switching to 3-phase in 0:42" or "PV charging on in 1:15". The chip disappears automatically once the action is executed. Requires the phase_action
and pv_action sensors from ha-evcc 2026.5+.
Now in the default HACS repository
hass-evcc-card is now listed in the default HACS repository. Installation is a one-step download from HACS. No custom repository setup needed. README and badge have been updated accordingly.
Other changes
- README rewritten with the new HACS-Default installation flow, the
debugmode section, and an updated configuration table - Bug-report issue template gained an optional Debug report field
- New translation keys added across all 8 supported locales (de, en, es, fr, hr, nl, pl, pt)
- Internally, loadpoint entities are now classified as core vs. optional. The debug report uses this to show only meaningful gaps and to ignore indexed features (PV strings, batteries, phases) where the count varies naturally by hardware
