Advanced Installation

For most users, the installation instructions in the Getting Started section will install the card successfully. In some rarer situations, additional steps may need to be taken.

Manual resource management

For most users, HACS should automatically add the necessary resources. Should this auto-registration not work you will need to complete one additional step.

Lovelace in "Storage Mode" (default)

Navigate:

Three dots menu -> "Edit Dashboard" -> Three dots menu -> "Manage resources" -> "Add Resource"

URL: /hacsfiles/frigate-hass-card/frigate-hass-card.js
Resource type: JavaScript Module

Lovelace in "YAML mode" (rare)

You would seemode: yaml under lovelace: in your configuration.yaml if this applies to you.

Add the following to configuration.yaml:

lovelace:
  resources:
    - url: /hacsfiles/frigate-hass-card/frigate-hass-card.js
      type: module

Restart Home Assistant.

Manual installation

Download the frigate-hass-card.zip attachment of the desired release to a location accessible by Home Assistant. Note that the release will have a series of .js files (for HACS users) and a frigate-hass-card.zip for the convenience of manual installers.
Unzip the file and move the contents of the dist/ folder to any subfolder name you'd like, e.g. frigate-card is used in the below example.
Add the location as a Lovelace resource via the UI, or via YAML configuration such as:

lovelace:
  mode: yaml
  resources:
    - url: /local/frigate-card/frigate-hass-card.js
      type: module

Unreleased versions

You can install any unreleased version of the card by leveraging the GitHub Actions artifacts that are generated on every revision. See a video walkthrough installing the latest revision of the release-4.1.0 branch.
