What it shows

The sun entity tells you where the sun is, and what it does next. Its view is a short list below the state row, which says whether the sun is Above horizon or Below horizon.

  • Rising and Setting: the next sunrise and sunset, each with how long until it happens on the left, and the time on the right. Whichever comes first is listed first.
  • Elevation: how high the sun is above the horizon, in degrees.
  • Azimuth: the compass direction of the sun, in degrees.

The sun above sets in a few hours, so Setting comes before Rising.

Design notes

  • The times follow the time format of the user, like 24 hour or AM and PM.
  • Sorting by what comes next keeps the most useful line at the top, so you never read tomorrow's sunrise before tonight's sunset.
  • The sun has no newer more-info design, so the dialog shows the state row at the top, like the person view.

In code

The view is more-info-sun in src/dialogs/more-info/controls/more-info-sun.ts.
