LVGL Text Sensor

The lvgl text sensor platform creates a Text Sensor from an LVGL textual widget and requires LVGL to be configured.

Supported widgets are label and textarea. A single text sensor supports only a single widget; in other words, it’s not possible to have multiple widgets associated with a single ESPHome text sensor component.

Configuration variables

• widget (Required): The ID of a textarea widget configured in LVGL, which will reflect the state of the text sensor.
• All other variables from Text Sensor.

Example:

text_sensor:
  - platform: lvgl
    widget: textarea_id
    name: "Textarea 1 text"

ℹ️ Note

Widget-specific actions (lvgl.label.update, lvgl.textarea.update ) will trigger correspponding component updates to be sent to Home Assistant.
