filter custom attributes on More-info dropdown

[Mariusthvdb]

please consider adding the option to filter custom attributes from the more-info dropdown.

We can now easily create custom attributes (eg to facilitate templates using selectattr()) which don't need to be in the frontend dropdown at all. Those attributes are really only needed in the backend.

Core attributes are now filtered here:

frontend/src/util/hass-attributes-util.ts

Line 87 in 7bc2708

hassAttributeUtil.LOGIC_STATE_ATTRIBUTES = {

and it would be really nice to be able to set some custom attributes to be added to that list in a customize_glob:

hide_attributes:
  - integration # see https://community.home-assistant.io/t/is-there-a-way-to-determine-what-integration-an-entity-belongs-to/247069/5
  - zone
  - has_battery
  - package
  - etc

or notice why Petro does: https://community.home-assistant.io/t/add-bring-back-friendly-name-to-template-sensors/305717/14

for #hacktoberfest ;-)

With "dropdown" you mean the collapsible/expandable section at the bottom of the more-info dialog?

Not sure if that is something for vanilla frontend or not better suited for a custom UI element...

[Mariusthvdb]

Yes thats what I meant. Obviously I’ve been trying that in custom-ui custom card, without success … hence my request to the dev team.

seems appropriate with the core support for attributes_templates et all.

[Mariusthvdb]

is there any chance we could get an additional attribute in that list to hide from displaying in the attributes dropdown panel?

it would make life for customizing much easier, and the frontend way prettier ;-)
