Feature request for Jinja templating

[iAmRenzo]

I discovered your Bubble Card, I really love it but my dashboard is now filled with Jinja templating. It's an extreme fuss to convert it into conditional JS.
Also Jinja is used throughout Home Assistant.

@Clooos Do you have thoughts on this? I find myself doing a lot of things that Jinja would make much easier that JS often just cannot do (well). Disclaimer, I have no idea what is involved in supporting templates. 🙂

Would love to see this

I'm already familiar with jinja templating from using home assistant, it makes it harder to customize bubble cards as now I have to learn a new language. Also makes converting my mushroom cards much harder since I have to figure out how to translate those jinja templates into conditional js

[Impudicus]

Not only it is harder, homeassistant was made to define a standard for everyone. Make different labels compatible, so "one can rule them all". This shall include, that developers agree on using home assistants jinja templating

If HA was made to define one standard for everyone, this would be part of the API itself imo. And would not be against all contrib integrations to implement it or not.
To me, it doesn't seem that this is going to be part of the core API.

[nagtegaal]

Is there any progress on this at all? Or is this never considered a feature at all to be implemented?

This thread is dead as hell — no responses at all

Hi! This is still in my to-do list but this will needs a lot of works, I'm currently working to have a strong basis with the full pop-up refactoring.

Working on this project is taking a lot of time and I can't progress on everything at the same time, but this will come! 😄
