Installation

  1. Download xiaomi-vacuum-map-card.js, coordinates-converter.js, texts.js and style.js to /www/custom_lovelace/xiaomi_vacuum_map_card directory:
    mkdir -p www/custom_lovelace/xiaomi_vacuum_map_card
    cd www/custom_lovelace/xiaomi_vacuum_map_card/
    wget https://github.com/PiotrMachowski/Home-Assistant-Lovelace-Xiaomi-Vacuum-Map-card/raw/master/dist/xiaomi-vacuum-map-card.js
    wget https://github.com/PiotrMachowski/Home-Assistant-Lovelace-Xiaomi-Vacuum-Map-card/raw/master/dist/coordinates-converter.js
    wget https://github.com/PiotrMachowski/Home-Assistant-Lovelace-Xiaomi-Vacuum-Map-card/raw/master/dist/texts.js
    wget https://github.com/PiotrMachowski/Home-Assistant-Lovelace-Xiaomi-Vacuum-Map-card/raw/master/dist/style.js
  2. Add the card to resources in ui-lovelace.yaml or in the raw editor if you are using the frontend UI editor:
    resources:
      - url: /local/custom_lovelace/xiaomi_vacuum_map_card/xiaomi-vacuum-map-card.js
        type: module

Calibration

To calibrate this card follow instructions from this guide.

Defining service

You can use a service parameter for example to run a script instead of starting a vacuum directly. Provided service will be run with following parameters:

  • entity_id - id of a vacuum
  • command - one of two:
    • app_goto_target - for Go to target mode
    • zoned_cleanup - for Zoned cleanup and Predefined zones modes
  • params - point or a list of zones (the same value as displayed in debug mode)
WARNING: In the current version of Home Assistant the service vacuum.send_command does not support templates!
To overcome this issue you can use a script and a python script.

Example HA script that can be used with this card is available here.

Hints

  • To find out values for calibration_points you can use the service vacuum.send_command with data:

    {
      "entity_id": "vacuum.xiaomi_vacuum",
      "command": "app_goto_target",
      "params": [25500, 25500]
    }

    Alternatively you can use vacuum.xiaomi_clean_zone:

    {
      "entity_id": "vacuum.xiaomi_vacuum",
      "zone": [[25500, 25500, 26500, 26500]],
      "repeats": 1
    }
  • You can find out coordinates for zones using two methods:

    • Enabling debug in settings, drawing zone in Zoned cleanup mode and holding Start button. Note: this method also works for other modes.
    • Android App FloleVac
  • To add another language modify file texts.js and set the language parameter in cards configuration.

FAQ

  • Can this card show a live map?

    Yes, to show a camera feed as a background set property map_camera in configuration. This only works if you have rooted your device.

  • Does this card require rooted device?

    No, in the basic version it uses a static image as a map. Root is required to create camera that will show a live map.

  • How to create a map?

    You can use any image you want, the easiest way is to use a screenshot from Mi Home/FloleVac.
