Dashboard

The openHAB dashboard is a landing page for the user where all openHAB UIs can be found. The Dashboard also supports links to external services. Links can be added to the dashboard by editing the $OPENHAB_CONF/services/dashboard.cfg configuration file.

Parameter Name Type Description
<unique-name>.link-name String Name which is shown in the openHAB dashboard.
<unique-name>.link-url String URL to external service.
<unique-name>.link-imageurl String URL to image which is shown in the dashboard.

Where <unique-name> is link unique identifier (see examples).

Link-url support following special words:

Special word Replaced to
{HOST} host name including possible port number
{HOSTNAME} host name

Image

A png image of 350px width and 200-250px height are recommended.

The imageurl property can either be a direct HTTP link or data URIs according to RFC2397. If data URIs are used, browser should support them as well. All five major browsers (Chrome, Firefox, IE, Opera and Safari) support data URIs. See e.g. https://www.base64-image.de to convert images to base64 coded data.
