Control a device's intensity, currency and percentage on the dashboard

Thanks for the clarification — I realize I absolutely hadn’t understood the initial request :sweat_smile:

I’m completely in favor of adding features related to electric vehicles to Gladys! This is a need that will clearly grow, and I think native support would make perfect sense in Gladys.

That said, a well-detailed feature request should be created, because as it stands I really hadn’t grasped the objective.

@Terdious, would you be willing to take the lead on defining this feature?

Since I don’t have a car, I’m not the best person to draw up the specifications, but I can gladly help with the implementation.

You’re right!!

So even though I’m far from comfortable writing specs, I’m lucky to have a friend I code with on another (personal) project who just bought a Tesla Model 3 and we actually started a dev (Tessie) last week that requires a spec on this side beforehand. We’re meeting tomorrow so we’ll look into it!!

For info, I installed Home Assistant (HA) two weeks ago for solar monitoring (and to be able to start charging the Model Y and calibrate the charging current according to solar surplus). They have a module for solar management that is very well developed; if you haven’t seen it already, it would be great if we could have a call so I can show you — it’s disarmingly simple and we’d really like to see that kind of thing in Gladys!!

Totally up for a short spec! :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

If I may offer a few usual tips:

  • Create a new thread to start from a clean slate
  • Think in terms of “electric car” in the broad sense, not just Tesla — make it as generic as possible
  • And try to keep it simple at first! Better a basic but functional first version that we can expand later.

Totally down! :slight_smile:

It doesn’t help anyone, but I’m excited too because next week I’m switching to electric (Hyundai), so if I can find some little things in Gladys that would be great! :+1:
