More page addons #

With more page addons you can still add own pages to Dwains Dashboard, you even can put them in the main navbar! Let’s say you want a page with some statistics or just an extra page with some cards. Then more page addons is the way to go.

More page addons information #

I advise you to create a folder inside dwains-dashboard/addons/more_page/ with the name of the addon (for example statistics) inside that folder create a file called page.yaml and inside that file your lovelace card(s) and use that path as the path for the addon.

A good example is to checkout the hello-more-page addon in dwains-dashboard/addons/more_page/hello-more-page/page.yaml to re-use or inspire you.

Name Type Default Example Description
name string Required Statistics The name of the addon
main_menu boolean Optional 'true' (default: false)  
show_header boolean Optional 'false' (default: true)  
icon string fas:puzzle-piece fas:chart-area The icon of the addon
path string Required dwains-dashboard/addons/more_page/statistics/page.yaml The path to the page of the addon
data object Not required See example below Data you wanna parse to the addon
