Home Assistant Lovelace Card to control https://github.com/Aircoookie/WLED solution to "controlling WS2812B RGB LEDs with an ESP8266 over WiFi"

WLED Hassio Lovelace Card

First of all big thanks to Aircoookie and his incredible work at the WLED repo, without it this wouldn't be possible!

Installation Guide

1. Set up MQTT Broker for WLED (restart after setting it)

Guide: https://www.home-assistant.io/addons/mosquitto/

2. Download libs and put them into config/www/lib on your hassio/config

• https://robinparisi.github.io/tingle/
• https://iro.js.org/introduction.html

3. Clone repo and put it under www/wled_control/

4. Add this to ressources in config/lovelace.ui.yaml

  - url: /local/lib/tingle.min.css
    type: css
  - url: /local/wled_control/static/wled.css
    type: css
  - url: /local/wled_control/static/effects.js
    type: js
  - url: /local/wled_control/static/fastLEDPallete.js
    type: js
  - url: /local/lib/tingle.min.js
    type: js
  - url: /local/lib/iro.min.js
    type: js
  - url: /local/wled_control/wled_control.js
    type: module

3. Add the custom card like this

Note: IP is needed to load the initial state of WLED since we don't save the state in hassio all communication with the led will happen by MQTT-Messages

- type: custom:wled-control-card
        topic: "wled/[MQTTCHANNEL]"
        ip: "[WLEDIP]"
        title: WLED Strip
