Loader in mushroom cards

[Xitro01]

I have a pop-up with a mushroom card with a couple of entities, like so:

- type: custom:mushroom-entity-card
  entity: switch.game_pc
  tap_action:
    action: toggle

The problem is that those entities are PC’s, so when clicked they don’t turn on immediately.
Is it possible to, when clicked, show a loader until it’s on (or off)?

I know that this dashboard already does something similar with /local/loader.svg, so maybe someone could help me out here.

wol to get real state of pc, the loader will spin until it's on (or times out after 20s)

hass-config/packages/computer_imac.yaml

Lines 11 to 37 in 132cbbd

	switch:
	- platform: wake_on_lan
	name: imac_wol
	host: !secret imac_wol_host
	mac: !secret imac_wol_mac
	- platform: template
	switches:
	imac:
	friendly_name: Dator
	icon_template: cil:imac-alternative
	value_template: >
	{{ is_state('switch.imac_wol', 'on') }}
	turn_on:
	- service: browser_mod.notification
	data:
	message: Dator måste manuellt slås på!
	- service: light.turn_on
	target:
	entity_id: light.studio_dator
	turn_off:
	if:
	condition: state
	entity_id: input_boolean.imac_lock
	state: 'off'
	then:
	service: shell_command.imac_off

Hi thanks for your answer, I already have it working with turning the PC's on and off.

I have a pop-up with 4 PC switches, they work now.
But the problem is that when clicked nothing happens until the PC is on.

I would like to use the mushroom-entity-card and also have that loader (with a 20s timeout) when I click on a computer.
Any ideas on how to implement that?

Thanks in advance for your help!

No, I don't understand, haha. Can you go into more detail and upload screenshots?

EDIT: I just reread the title, it's not possible to add a loader in mushroom cards if that's what you mean

I have a pop-up like this:


Clicking a computer 'on' does not give me any feedback, which is annoying as I don't really know if I clicked it correctly or not.

If mushroom cards can't do it, any idea of a nice alternative, that also looks good?

Again: thanks alot!

[matt8707]

you can make custom:button-card look like that

Will look into that, thanks!
