Indigo Domotics

I've just got my hands on an M1 Mini, so transitioning Indigo to python3 is very much on my mind.

Any chance the Nanoleaf plugin will see a compatibility update? viewtopic.php?f=75&t=26470&p=213090#p213090

Every chance !

I am currently working on an update that is transitioning the plugin to work with a new Python 3 Nanoleaf library that is being kept up-to-date. The library the plugin currently uses is five years old and not kept up-to-date. So this update is a bit more involved than a simple Python 2 to Python 3 conversion.

Hopefully the update should be available by the end of next month at the latest.

Thanks!

I'm curious--which is the "kept up to date" python library for Nanoleaf?

And if that library doesn't handle the bulbs, does that mean no chance that nanoleaf bulbs will get added to the plugin?

This is the more recent library I am integrating: nanoleafapi

It does not support Nanoleaf bulbs because the Nanaoleaf API only supports: Aurora [NL22], Canvas [NL29], Shape [NL42], Element [NL52] and Line [NL59].

I did waste my money on buying a bulb only to discover it couldn't be controlled.

So, no, the plugin won't be supporting bulbs, sorry.

On a more positive note, I have largely completed the conversion to Python 3 and am in the process of testing the changes. So should still be on target for the end of the month.

Thanks very much for the info, and all your work! I'm excited to see if the new library makes connectivity less of a PITA than it is currently. Nothing about your plugin--I'm pretty sure this is Nanoleaf's networking problem. But some days it feels like my most run trigger is "Nanoleaf plugin reload when communication lost" :/

I have uploaded the Python 3 version of the plugin as a pre-release to Github: Nanoleaf Controller Version 2022.0.2

I have tested it on MacOS Monterey 12.6 running on both an Intel Mac mini and an Apple Silicon Mac mini.

Please try it out and let me know of any issues.

Awesome! Thanks. I'll install it today. Something to do on a blustery rainy Sunday.

Default python for Monterey seems to be v 2.7.18 and searching the web for sseclient shows me that sseclient is installed by default only on 2.7.9 or greater.

EDIT edit: installed an updated Pip and got sseclient installed, and the plugin is working now. I'll report back after some usage!

Forgot about that.

It will likely be handled automatically in a future version of Indigo but for the moment you need to open a terminal session and enter:

Code: Select all

pip3 install sseclient

Hopefully, that will fix it.

There is no default Python for Monterey as Apple removed Python. At the moment Indigo installs Python 2 and Python3 for its own use. You don't want to and shouldn't install any python versions, if all you are doing is running Indigo. The plugin has been updated to run on the Python3 as installed by Indigo.

Oops I missed that reply from you.

Did it all by myself .

thanks for your work on this.

Hey, great to hear about the update.
Just installed it and so far no problems.

However, it does not detect my Nanoleaf Elements D781.

Earlier in the Thread you mention Elements as well but the plug-in only refers to "Discovering nanoleaf aurora, canvas and shape devices on network", not Elements.
Is that/will that also be supported?

Cheers,
Dietmar

Any news about the Elements bulbs?

Also, and perhaps easier, or maybe impossible: Sometimes my light panels get into a strange state where they're listed in Indigo as "No ack." Could No Ack be added as a status for Nanoleaf devices? that would let me trigger the Unifi actions and Nanoleaf plugin restart that I've noticed will get it back to responding.

Weirdly, and probably because of Bluetooth, when Indigo shows No Ack, the Nanoleaf app can still control the problematic device. And the device even shows as active on my network.

Elemsnts won't be supported as the underlying API the plugin uses can't support them.

I can schedule in taking a look at adding a no-ack state that you can trigger on once I have completed another plugin I am working on.

Much appreciated!

Shame about the elements, but I get why. Maybe an update to the API will enable them.
