Home Assistant Map generation

[creatvty]

Hi,

so as the map is now generated by the lovelace-valetudo-map-card I have the issue, that I can not access the PNG itself anymore. I used to have an automation active that would send the generated map via telegram bot. If I am not mistaken, this is currently not possible because the lovelace-valetudo-map-card is not storing the map anywhere but generating it on the fly. Is there any way of accessing the map in the generated format like before?

Kind regards

Map to png rendering isn't part of Valetudo anymore since.. 0.6? I think

You need to run this companion service
https://github.com/Hypfer/Icantbelieveitsnotvaletudo

which will render the map and push it to another mqtt camera entity.

Thanks for your quick reply. I was a little confused that the vacuum is providing the camera.map entity directly and lovelace-valetudo-map-card was rendering the map from this data. Whereas Icantbelieveitsnotvaletudo is providing the camera.robot_rendered_map entity. Also I had a small mistake in my config of Icantbelieveitsnotvaletudo. That's why it did not send the rendered map.
