When using brand set to openevse the card doesn't display any data except the charger status.
Card config:

type: custom:charger-card
entity: sensor.openevse_charging_status
brand: openevse

Hi, it was added as a test and the card is still a release candidate. I depend on someone with EVSE charger to debug and propose template values or I'll have to remove it (bevause I have no clue how it looks).

The card is now fully customizable (even if you have selected a template, it can be modified). So it should be easy to fool around with different settings without knowing code.

I'm able to test it out, just need some pointers.

Sounds good. I think the easiest way is if you read up on the readme, see especially the 'advanced' part. This will explain what is possible to customize today. Then you could go to the card config, but remember to select 'Show code editor' so that the card config is shown in YAML.

Even if the EVSE-setup doesn't work today, you should be able to use it as a template to get you started. I think it should also work if you select Easee as template and then start modifying sensors to what you have in your installation.

I could have left the card only with the possibility to edit manually, but since I know this is not always the best for non-advanced YAML'ers, the idea I have with these templates is that by knowing the basic structure of each integration, we can make it a bit easier for people in the future. However, this requires that someone gives input on each integration.

Try it out and see if you get a hold of it. If you struggle with something specific, I can try to give some advice. Also, if you want, you could post a complete list of the entities/sensors belonging to the EVSE integration and I can try to make something as a starting point.

Perhaps @jcsogo would like to chime in too, he did some early testing (see #19) and requested the EVSE some time back.

I haven't migrated yet to the new rewritten card, but what I have quickly looked in the code makes sense. I am using @firstof9 integration, so it should work. But please make sure that you have the default "sensor.openevse_charging_status" as you're defining in the config, as the code will rip the _charging_status part to get the 'openevse' string. If you've named it differently, then you have to pass that sensor to the config.

That's right, the card is using the main sensor to figure out (best guess) the rest of the sensors. But if someone has completely renamed it, the card should work anyway, but will rely on manual configuration of course.

Does my card config look right?
I didn't rename any of my entities they're all the defaults.

Well, not really. Once openESVE is selected together with a main entity it should "translate" the config to something like the below example. Could be more or could be less (I think less, we didn't put to much info in the openEVSE example which is just a work-in-progress). Try to select Easee and modify the example below, or perhaps easier to copy the example and modify it manually to fit your sensors.

What the card does when selecting a brand and a main entity is to (try to) figure out CHARGERNAME and replace it in sensornames. So if you send a list of your entities, I can try to update openEVSE to fit more what is there.

PS! The example may look overwhelming, and you don't need all of it. But if you study, I think you see the structure more or less. The readme should hopefully explain more or less what each detail means too.

Edit:
The current selection has a weird graphical glitch:

Starting to look good! I am aware of the glitch you see in current selection dropdown, there is a problem in my css that I didn't manage to fix yet. See #21 as well.

PS! You would probably want to add a service to the current selection too so that you can actually change it?

Looking good! Does it seem to work as you expected? @jcsogo: Does this cover your needs and expectation as well? If you both I agree, I can update the openEVSE template to reflect this solution.

@tmjo I couldn't get the "disconnected" state using the "not connected" sensor state to work it always used "default" for some reason.

Sorry, I didn't follow. You mean the state text below the charger image doesn't follow your sensor.openevse_charging_status?

When sensor.openevse_charging_status state was not connected the card was using the default entry for the stats section, which is why I removed the disconnected entry from statetext.

I hope this clears up what I was trying to convey.

Has the openEVSE template been updated?
I am using the custom integration to get openEVSE talking to Home Assistant as it seems MUCH better than the default integration.

No idea, I've been using what I've posted and it's been working fine.

Hi!

I'd love to add support for this charger, but kindly read the wiki on how-to. Let me know if anything is unclear and I'll update it or try to explain.

Cheers!
