Pulsarr Requests Card

🖼️ Lovelace Card for Streamlined Media Approval

---

Overview

The Pulsarr Requests Card is a custom Lovelace card for Home Assistant, designed to visually display and manage pending media approval requests fetched by the companion custom integration and jamcalli's Pulsarr Real-time Plex watchlist monitoring and content acquisition tool, which Seamlessly sync Plex watchlists with Sonarr and Radarr.

It transforms the raw JSON data from the sensor.pulsarr_enhanced_requests entity into an attractive, actionable list showing media posters, titles, request details, and most importantly, provides one-click Approve and Reject buttons by utilizing the integration's service call.

Key Features

• Visual Display: Shows rich metadata including posters, titles, and ratings fetched by the integration.
• One-Click Actions: Directly calls the pulsarr_enhanced_requests.process_request service to approve or reject items without leaving the dashboard.
• Real-time Updates: Requests disappear from the list automatically once processed.
• Configurable Style: Allows customization of the title, button colors, and background for seamless integration with your dashboard theme.
