Installation

Via Home Assistant Community Store (Recommended)

  1. Install HACS
  2. Search & Install Plotly Graph Card.

Manually

  1. Go to Releases
  2. Download plotly-graph-card.js and copy it to your Home Assistant config dir as <config>/www/plotly-graph-card.js
  3. Add a resource to your dashboard configuration. There are two ways:
    1. Using UI: Settings → Dashboards → More Options icon → Resources → Add Resource → Set Url as /local/plotly-graph-card.js → Set Resource type as JavaScript Module. Note: If you do not see the Resources menu, you will need to enable Advanced Mode in your User Profile
    2. Using YAML: Add following code to lovelace section.
        - url: /local/plotly-graph-card.js
          type: module

Attribute values

Plot the attributes of an entity

type: custom:plotly-graph
entities:
  - entity: climate.living
    attribute: temperature
  - entity: climate.kitchen
    attribute: temperature

Statistics support

Fetch and plot long-term statistics of an entity

for entities with state_class=measurement (normal sensors, like temperature)

type: custom:plotly-graph
entities:
  - entity: sensor.temperature
    statistic: max # `min`, `mean` of `max`
    period: 5minute # `5minute`, `hour`, `day`, `week`, `month`, `auto` # `auto` varies the period depending on the zoom level

for entities with state_class=total (such as utility meters)

type: custom:plotly-graph
entities:
  - entity: sensor.temperature
    statistic: state # `state` or `sum`
    period: 5minute # `5minute`, `hour`, `day`, `week`, `month`, `auto` # `auto` varies the period depending on the zoom level

automatic period

The option auto makes the period relative to the currently visible time range. It picks the longest period, such that there are at least 100 datapoints in screen.

type: custom:plotly-graph
entities:
  - entity: sensor.temperature
    statistic: mean
    period: auto

It is equivalent to writing:

type: custom:plotly-graph
entities:
  - entity: sensor.temperature
    statistic: mean
    period:
      0m: 5minute
      100h: hour
      100d: day
      100w: week
      100M: month # note uppercase M for month. Lowercase are minutes

step function for auto period

type: custom:plotly-graph
entities:
  - entity: sensor.temperature
    statistic: mean
    period:
      0s: 5minute
      24h: hour # when the visible range is ≥ 1 day, use the `hour` period
      7d: day # from 7 days on, use `day`
      6M: week # from 6 months on, use weeks. Note Uppercase M! (lower case m means minutes)
      1y: month # from 1 year on, use `month

Note that 5minute period statistics are limited in time as normal recorder history is, contrary to other periods which keep data for years.

show_value:

Shows the value of the last datapoint as text in a scatter plot.

Warning: don't use it with bar charts, it will only add an extra bar and no text

Examples:

type: custom:plotly-graph
entities:
  - entity: sensor.temperature
    show_value: true

Often one wants this to be the case for all entities

defaults:
  entity:
    show_value: true

If you want to make extra room for the value, you can either increase the right margin of the whole plot like this:

layout:
  margin:
    r: 100

Or make space inside the the plot like this:

time_offset: 3h

Offsets

Offsets are useful to shift data in the temporal axis. For example, if you have a sensor that reports the forecasted temperature 3 hours from now, it means that the current value should be plotted in the future. With the time_offset attribute you can shift the data so it is placed in the correct position. Another possible use is to compare past data with the current one. For example, you can plot yesterday's temperature and the current one on top of each other.

The time_offset flag can be specified in two places. 1) When used at the top level of the configuration, it specifies how much "future" the graph shows by default. For example, if hours_to_show is 16 and time_offset is 3h, the graph shows the past 13 hours (16-3) plus the next 3 hours. 2) When used at the trace level, it offsets the trace by the specified amount.

type: custom:plotly-graph
hours_to_show: 16
time_offset: 3h
entities:
  - entity: sensor.current_temperature
    line:
      width: 3
      color: orange
  - entity: sensor.current_temperature
    name: Temperature yesterday
    time_offset: 1d
    line:
      width: 1
      dash: dot
      color: orange
  - entity: sensor.temperature_12h_forecast
    time_offset: 12h
    name: Forecast temperature
    line:
      width: 1
      dash: dot
      color: grey

Graph with offsets

Now line

When using offsets, it is useful to have a line that indicates the current time. This can be done by using a universal function that returns a line with the current time as x value and 0 and 1 as y values. The line is then hidden from the legend.

type: custom:plotly-graph
hours_to_show: 6h
time_offset: 3h
entities:
  - entity: sensor.forecast_temperature
    yaxis: y1
    time_offset: 3h
  - entity: ""
    name: Now
    yaxis: y9
    showlegend: false
    line:
      width: 1
      dash: dot
      color: deepskyblue
    x: $ex [Date.now(), Date.now()]
    y: [0, 1]
layout:
  yaxis9:
    visible: false
    fixedrange: true

Graph with offsets and now-line

Duration

Whenever a time duration can be specified, this is the notation to use:

Unit Suffix Notes
Milliseconds ms
Seconds s
Minutes m
Hours h
Days d
Weeks w
Months M 30 days
Years y 365 days

Example:

time_offset: 3h

Extra entity attributes:

type: custom:plotly-graph
entities:
  - entity: sensor.temperature_in_celsius
    name: living temperature in Farenheit # Overrides the entity name
    unit_of_measurement: °F # Overrides the unit
    show_value: true # shows the last value as text
    customdata: |
      $fn ({states}) => 
        states.map( () => ({ extra_attr: "hello" }) )
      # customdata is array with the same number of values as x axis (states)
      # use statistics instead of states if entity is based on statistic   
    texttemplate: >- # custom format for show_value
      <b>%{y}</b>%{customdata.extra_attr}<br>
      # to show only 2 decimals: "%{y:.2f}"
      # see more here: https://plotly.com/javascript/hover-text-and-formatting/
      # only x, y, customdata are available as %{} template

    hovertemplate: | # custom format for hover text using entity properites name and unit_of_measurement
      $fn ({ getFromConfig }) =>
      ` <b>${getFromConfig(".name")}</b><br>
      <i>%{x}</i><br>
      %{y}${getFromConfig(".unit_of_measurement")}
      <extra></extra>` # <extra></extra> removes text on the side of the tooltip (it otherwise defaults to the entity name)

Extend_to_present

The boolean extend_to_present will take the last known datapoint and "expand" it to the present by creating a duplicate and setting its date to now. This is useful to make the plot look fuller. It's recommended to turn it off when using offsets, or when setting the mode of the trace to markers. Defaults to true for state history, and false for statistics.

type: custom:plotly-graph
entities:
  - entity: sensor.weather_24h_forecast
    mode: "markers"
    extend_to_present: false # true by default for state history
  - entity: sensor.actual_temperature
    statistics: mean
    extend_to_present: true # false by default for statistics

filters:

Filters are used to process the data before plotting it. Inspired by ESPHome's sensor filters. Filters are applied in order.

type: custom:plotly-graph
entities:
  - entity: sensor.temperature_in_celsius
    filters:
      - store_var: myVar # stores the datapoints inside `vars.myVar`
      - load_var: myVar # loads the datapoints from `vars.myVar`

      # The filters below will only be applied to numeric values. Missing (unavailable) and non-numerics will be left untouched
      - add: 5 # adds 5 to each datapoint
      - multiply: 2 # multiplies each datapoint by 2
      - calibrate_linear:
        # Left of the arrow are the measurements, right are the expected values.
        # The mapping is then approximated through linear regression, and that correction is applied to the data.
        - 0.0 -> 0.0
        - 40.0 -> 45.0
        - 100.0 -> 102.5
      - deduplicate_adjacent # removes all adjacent duplicate values. Useful for type: marker+text
      - delta # computes the delta between each two consecutive numeric y values.
      - derivate: h # computes rate of change per unit of time: h # ms (milisecond), s (second), m (minute), h (hour), d (day), w (week), M (month), y (year)
      - integrate: h # computes area under the curve in a specific unit of time using Right hand riemann integration. Same units as the derivative
      - integrate:
          unit: h # defaults to h
          reset_every: 1h # Defaults to 0 (never reset). Any duration unit (ms, s, m, h, d, w, M, y).
          offset: 30m # defaults to 0. Resets happen 30m later

      - map_y_numbers: Math.sqrt(y + 10*100) # map the y coordinate of each datapoint. Same available variables as for `map_y`
      # In the filters below, missing and non numeric datapoints will be discarded
      - sliding_window_moving_average: # best for smoothing
          # default parameters:
          window_size: 10
          extended: false # when true, smaller window sizes are used on the extremes.
          centered: true # compensate for averaging lag by offsetting the x axis by half a window_size
      - exponential_moving_average: # good for smoothing
          # default parameters:
          alpha: 0.1 # between 0 an 1. The lower the alpha, the smoother the trace.
      - median: # got to remove outliers
          # default parameters:
          window_size: 10
          extended: false
          centered: true
      - trendline # converts the data to a linear trendline // TODO: force line.shape = linear
      - trendline: linear # defaults to no forecast, no formula, no error squared
      - trendline:
          type: polynomial # linear, polynomial, power, exponential, theil_sen, robust_polynomial, fft
          forecast: 1d # continue trendline after present. Use global time_offset to show beyond present.
          degree: 3 # only appliable to polynomial regression and fft.
          show_formula: true
          show_r2: true
      # The filters below receive all datapoints as they come from home assistant. Y values are strings or null (unless previously mapped to numbers or any other type)
      - map_y: 'y === "heat" ? 1 : 0' # map the y values of each datapoint. Variables `i` (index), `x`, `y`, `state`, `statistic`, `xs`, `ys`, `states`, `statistics`, `meta`, `vars` and `hass` are in scope. The outer quoutes are there because yaml doesn't like colons in strings without quoutes.
      - map_x: new Date(+x + 1000) # map the x coordinate (javascript date object) of each datapoint. Same variables as map_y are in scope
      - fn: |- # arbitrary function. Only the keys that are returned are replaced. Returning null or undefined, leaves the data unchanged (useful )
          ({xs, ys, vars, meta, states, statistics, hass}) => {
            # either statistics or states will be available, depending on if "statistics" are fetched or not
            # attributes will be available inside states only if an attribute is picked in the trace
            return {
              ys: states.map(state => +state?.attributes?.current_temperature - state?.attributes?.target_temperature + hass.states["sensor.temperature"].state,
              meta: { unit_of_measurement: "delta" }
            };
          },
      - resample: 5m # Rebuilds data so that the timestamps in xs are exact multiples of the specified interval, and without gaps. The parameter is the length of the interval and defaults to 5 minutes (see #duration for the format). This is useful when combining data from multiple entities, as the index of each datapoint will correspond to the same instant of time across them.
      - filter: y !== null && +y > 0 && x > new Date(Date.now()-1000*60*60) # filter out datapoints for which this returns false. Also filters from xs, states and statistics. Same variables as map_y are in scope
      - force_numeric # converts number-lookinig-strings to actual js numbers and removes the rest. Any filters used after this one will receive numbers, not strings or nulls. Also removes respective elements from xs, states and statistics parameters

Debugging
  1. Open your browser's devtools console
  2. Use console.log or the debugger statement to execute your map filter step by step
    type: custom:plotly-graph
    entities:
      - entity: sensor.temperature_in_celsius
        statistics: mean
        filters:
          - fn: console.log # open the devtools console to see the data
          - fn: |-
              (params) => {
                const ys = [];
                debugger;
                for (let i = 0; i < params.statistics.length; i++){
                  ys.pushh(params.statistics.max); // <--- here's the bug
                }
                return { ys };
              }
Using the hass object

Funcitonal filters receive hass (Home Assistant) as parameter, which gives you access to the current states of all entities.

type: custom:plotly-graph
entities:
  - entity: sensor.power_consumption
    filters:
      - map_y: parseFloat(y) * parseFloat(hass.states['sensor.cost'].state)
Using vars

Compute absolute humidity

type: custom:plotly-graph
entities:
  - entity: sensor.wintergarten_clima_humidity
    internal: true
    filters:
      - resample: 5m # important so the datapoints align in the x axis
      - map_y: parseFloat(y)
      - store_var: relative_humidity
  - entity: sensor.wintergarten_clima_temperature
    period: 5minute
    name: Absolute Hty
    unit_of_measurement: g/mÂł
    filters:
      - resample: 5m
      - map_y: parseFloat(y)
      - map_y: (6.112 * Math.exp((17.67 * y)/(y+243.5)) * +vars.relative_humidity.ys[i] * 2.1674)/(273.15+y);

Compute dew point

type: custom:plotly-graph
entities:
  - entity: sensor.openweathermap_humidity
    internal: true
    period: 5minute # important so the datapoints align in the x axis. Alternative to the resample filter using statistics
    filters:
      - map_y: parseFloat(y)
      - store_var: relative_humidity
  - entity: sensor.openweathermap_temperature
    period: 5minute
    name: Dew point
    filters:
      - map_y: parseFloat(y)
      - map_y: >-
          {
            // https://www.omnicalculator.com/physics/dew-point
            const a = 17.625;
            const b = 243.04;
            const T = y;
            const RH = vars.relative_humidity.ys[i];
            const α = Math.log(RH/100) + a*T/(b+T);
            const Ts = (b * α) / (a - α);
            return Ts; 
          }

internal:

setting it to true will remove it from the plot, but the data will still be fetch. Useful when the data is only used by a filter in a different trace. Similar to plotly's visibility: false, except it internal traces won't use up new yaxes.

type: custom:plotly-graph
entities:
  - entity: sensor.temperature1
    internal: true
    period: 5minute
    filters:
      - map_y: parseFloat(y)
      - store_var: temp1
  - entity: sensor.temperature2
    period: 5minute
    name: sum of temperatures
    filters:
      - map_y: parseFloat(y)
      - map_y: y + vars.temp1.ys[i]

Entity click handlers

When the legend is clicked (or doubleclicked), the trace will be hidden (or showed alone) by default. This behaviour is controlled by layout-legend-itemclick. On top of that, a $fn function can be used to add custom behaviour. If a handler returns false, the default behaviour trace toggle behaviour will be disabled, but this will also inhibit the on_legend_dblclick handler. Disable the default behaviour via layout-legend-itemclick instead if you want to use both click and dblclick handlers.

type: custom:plotly-graph
entities:
  - entity: sensor.temperature1
    on_legend_click: |-
      $fn () => (event_data) => {
        event = new Event( "hass-more-info")
        event.detail =  { entityId: 'sensor.temperature1' };
        document.querySelector('home-assistant').dispatchEvent(event);
        return false; // disable trace toggling
      }

Alternatively, clicking on points of the trace itself.

type: custom:plotly-graph
entities:
  - entity: sensor.temperature1
    on_click: |-
      $fn () => (event_data) => {
        ...
        // WARNING: this doesn't work and I don't understand why. Help welcome
      }

There is also a double click plot handler, it works on the whole plotting area (not points of an entity). Beware that double click also autoscales the plot.

type: custom:plotly-graph
entities:
  - entity: sensor.temperature1
on_dblclick: |-
  $fn ({ hass }) => () => {
    hass.callService('light', 'turn_on', {
      entity_id: 'light.portique_lumiere'
    })
  }

See more in plotly's official docs

Universal functions

Javascript functions allowed everywhere in the yaml. Evaluation is top to bottom and shallow to deep (depth first traversal).

The returned value will be used as value for the property where it is found. E.g:

name: $fn ({ hass }) => hass.states["sensor.garden_temperature"].state

or a universal expression $ex (the parameters and arrow are added automatically):

name: $ex hass.states["sensor.garden_temperature"].state

which can also take a block:

name: |
  $ex {
    return hass.states["sensor.garden_temperature"].state
  }

Available parameters:

Remember you can add a console.log(the_object_you_want_to_inspect) and see its content in the devTools console.

Everywhere:

  • getFromConfig: (path) => value; Pass a path (e.g entities.0.name) and get back its value
  • get: (path) => value; same as getFromConfig
  • hass: HomeAssistant object; For example: hass.states["sensor.garden_temperature"].state to get its current state
  • vars: Record<string, any>; You can communicate between functions with this. E.g vars.temperatures = ys
  • path: string; The path of the current function
  • css_vars: HATheme; The colors set by the active Home Assistant theme (see #ha_theme)

Only inside entities

  • xs: Date[]; Array of timestamps
  • ys: YValue[]; Array of values of the sensor/attribute/statistic
  • statistics: StatisticValue[]; Array of statistics objects
  • states: HassEntity[]; Array of state objects
  • meta: HassEntity["attributes"]; The current attributes of the sensor

Gotchas

  • The following entity attributes are required for fetching, so if another function needs the entity data it needs to be declared below them. entity,attribute,offset,statistic,period
  • Functions are allowed for those properties (entity, attribute, ...) but they do not receive entity data as parameters. You can still use the hass parameter to get the last state of an entity if you need to.
  • Functions cannot return functions for performance reasons. (feature request if you need this)
  • Defaults are not applied to the subelements returned by a function. (feature request if you need this)
  • You can get other values from the yaml with the getFromConfig parameter, but if they are functions they need to be defined before.
  • Any function which uses the result of a filter, needs to be placed in the YAML below the filter. For instance, name: $ex ys.at(-1) where the filter is modifying ys.
  • The same is true of consecutive filters - order matters. This is due to the fact that filters are translated internally to function calls, executed in the order they are parsed.

Adding the last value to the entitiy's name

type: custom:plotly-graph
entities:
  - entity: sensor.garden_temperature
    name: |
      $ex meta.friendly_name + " " + ys[ys.length - 1]

Sharing data across functions

type: custom:plotly-graph
entities:
  - entity: sensor.garden_temperature

    # the fn attribute has no meaning, it is just a placeholder to put a function there. It can be any name not used by plotly
    fn: $ex vars.title = ys[ys.length - 1];
title: $ex vars.title

Histograms

type: custom:plotly-graph
entities:
  - entity: sensor.openweathermap_temperature
    x: $ex ys
    type: histogram
title: Temperature Histogram last 10 days
hours_to_show: 10d
raw_plotly_config: true
layout:
  margin:
    t: 0
    l: 50
    b: 40
  height: 285
  xaxis:
    autorange: true

custom hover text

type: custom:plotly-graph
title: hovertemplate
entities:
  - entity: climate.living
    attribute: current_temperature
    customdata: |
      $fn ({states}) =>
        states.map( ({state, attributes}) =>({
          ...attributes,
          state
        })
      )
    hovertemplate: |-
      <br> <b>Mode:</b> %{customdata.state}<br>
      <b>Target:</b>%{y}</br>
      <b>Current:</b>%{customdata.current_temperature}
      <extra></extra>
hours_to_show: current_day

Default trace & axis styling

default configurations for all entities and all yaxes (e.g yaxis, yaxis2, yaxis3, etc).

type: custom:plotly-graph
entities:
  - sensor.temperature1
  - sensor.temperature2
defaults:
  entity:
    fill: tozeroy
    line:
      width: 2
  yaxes:
    fixedrange: true # disables vertical zoom & scroll

layout:

To define layout aspects, like margins, title, axes names, ... Anything from https://plotly.com/javascript/reference/layout/.

Home Assistant theming:

Toggle Home Assistant theme colors:

  • card-background-color
  • primary-background-color
  • primary-color
  • primary-text-color
  • secondary-text-color
type: custom:plotly-graph
entities:
  - entity: sensor.temperature_in_celsius
ha_theme: false #defaults to true

Raw plotly config:

Toggle all in-built defaults for layout and entitites. Useful when using histograms, 3d plots, etc. When true, the x and y properties of the traces won't be automatically filled with entity data, you need to use $fn for that.

type: custom:plotly-graph
entities:
  - entity: sensor.temperature_in_celsius
    x: $ex xs
    y: $ex ys
raw_plotly_config: true # defaults to false

config:

To define general configurations like enabling scroll to zoom, disabling the modebar, etc. Anything from https://plotly.com/javascript/configuration-options/.

disable_pinch_to_zoom

disable_pinch_to_zoom: true # defaults to false

When true, the custom implementations of pinch-to-zoom and double-tap-drag-to-zooming will be disabled.

hours_to_show:

How many hours are shown. Exactly the same as the history card, but more powerful

Fixed Relative Time

  • Decimal values (e.g hours_to_show: 0.5)
  • Duration strings (e.g hours_to_show: 2h, 3d, 1w, 1M). See Durations

Dynamic Relative Time

Shows the current day, hour, etc from beginning to end. The options are: current_minute, current_hour, current_day, current_week, current_month, current_quarter, current_year It can be combined with the global time_offset.

autorange_after_scroll:

Removes all data out of the visible range, and autoscales after each replot. Particularly useful when combined with Range Selector Buttons

type: custom:plotly-graph
entities:
  - entity: sensor.garden_temperature
autorange_after_scroll: true

refresh_interval:

Update data every refresh_interval seconds.

Examples:

refresh_interval: auto # (default) update automatically when an entity changes its state.
refresh_interval: 0 # never update.
refresh_interval: 5 # update every 5 seconds

localization:

The locale is directly taken from Home Assistant's configuration, but can be overridden like this:

config:
  locale: ar

** Home Assistant custom Number and Date format will be ignored, only the language determines the locale **

When using hours_to_show: current_week, the "First day of the week" configured in Home Assistant is used

deprecations:

no_theme

Renamed to ha_theme (inverted logic) in v3.0.0

no_default_layout

Replaced with more general raw_plotly_config in v3.0.0. If you were using it, you most likely can delete it and add this to your yaxes defaults:

defaults:
  yaxes:
    side: left
    overlaying: "y"
    visible: true
    showgrid: true

offset

Renamed to time_offset in v3.0.0 to avoid conflicts with PlotlyJS bar offset configuration.

lambda

Removed in v3.0.0, use filters instead. There is most likely a filter (or combination) that will give you the same result, but you can also translate an old lambda to a filter like this:

lambda: |
  (ys,xs) => {
    ...
    return {x: arr_x, y: arr_y};
  }
# becomes
filters:
  - fn: |
    ({ys,xs}) => {
      ...
      return {xs: arr_x, ys: arr_y};
    }

and

lambda: |
  (ys) => ys.map(y => y+1...etc...)
# becomes
filters:
  - map_y: y+1...etc...

entities/show_value/right_margin

Removed in v3.0.0, use show_value: true instead and if necessary, set the global time_offset or layout.margins.r to make extra space to the right.

significant_changes_only

Removed in v3.0.0, non significant changes are also fetched now. The bandwidth savings weren't worth the issues it created.

minimal_response

Removed in v3.0.0, if you need access to the attributes use the 'attribute' parameter instead. It doesn't matter which attribute you pick, all of them are still accessible inside filters and universal functions

Development

  • Clone the repo
  • run npm i
  • run npm start
  • From a dashboard in edit mode, go to Manage resources and add http://127.0.0.1:8000/plotly-graph-card.js as url with resource type JavaScript
  • ATTENTION: The development card is type: custom:plotly-graph-dev (mind the extra -dev)
  • Either use Safari or Enable chrome://flags/#unsafely-treat-insecure-origin-as-secure and add your HA address (e.g http://homeassistant.local:8123): Chrome doesn't allow public network resources from requesting private-network resources - unless the public-network resource is secure (HTTPS) and the private-network resource provides appropriate (yet-undefined) CORS headers.
