📣 Please read — big installation change is coming!

A major quality-of-life improvement is on the way ✨: I’ve found a way to bundle the Lovelace card + the sync integration into a single install 🎉

This means that in v3.0.0 you will need to do a one-time migration 🧰 to ensure nothing gets lost.

No functional changes are included in this update — this is information only to prepare everyone ahead of time.


🔥 What’s changing in v3.0.0?

  • 🧩 The card and the integration will be installed/managed together.

  • 📦 After setup, the integration will automatically install the card into your www folder.

  • 🧠 It will also auto-add the card to Resources (similar to how HACS does it) ✅

  • 🏷️ The integration name will change:

    • Thermostat Pro Timeline SyncThermostat Pro Timeline

🛟 What you MUST do when v3.0.0 releases

1) 💾 Backup your card configuration (IMPORTANT!)

  • Create a backup of your card config/file 🧾
  • Save it under a different name than the card normally uses 🛡️ (to reduce the risk of it being overwritten/deleted)

2) 🧹 Fully remove the old setup

  • ❌ Uninstall the card (make sure it’s completely removed from Home Assistant)
  • ❌ Uninstall the integration

3) 📥 Install the new combined integration

  • ✅ Install “Thermostat Pro Timeline Sync” (name will change to “Thermostat Pro Timeline”)
  • 🔁 Restart Home Assistant

4) ⚙️ Set it up again in Devices

  • Go to Settings → Devices & Services 🧭

  • Set up the integration as you did before ✅

  • Once configured, the integration will automatically:

    • 📁 Install the card into your www folder
    • 🧩 Add it to Resources

5) 🌐 Hard refresh your browser

  • Do a hard refresh of Home Assistant 🔄
  • In Google Chrome: Ctrl + Alt + R ⌨️

✅ After this, you should see the card exactly like before 👀✨


♻️ Restoring your backup (easy method)

To get your old backup working again, the easiest approach is:

  1. 🆕 Create a new backup right away (after reinstall)
  2. 📂 Open the file you saved before uninstalling
  3. 📋 Copy the content
  4. 📌 Paste it into the newly created (likely empty) backup file
  5. 💾 Save

🔁 Home Assistant won’t automatically ask for a restart just because you changed the backup file — but it’s still a good idea to restart anyway ✅ to ensure everything is fully reloaded and applied.

Then you should be able to load your old backup again 🎯


🙏 Final note

I hope this change won’t cause too many issues 🤞💙 — the goal is to make installation and updates much easier for everyone going forward 🚀✨

If you run into anything unexpected during v3.0.0 migration, please open an issue with logs and screenshots 🐞🧠📸
