Hue Lights discussion

Thanks jakey12. I'll add that one too.

Oh, and Marco, I'll also add your Ikea light to the next release as well.

Thanks a lot

Do you plan to give the user to add manually the lamp/bulb in a more friendly way so that you do not need to deliver a new release entry time?

Hi Marco.

No, no plans for that at this time. That kind of change to the plugin would require a significant rewrite of a lot of code which I don't have time to do. The plugin is available on GitHub at https://github.com/nsheldon/Hue-Lights-Indigo-plugin/tree/Indigo-7-API-2.0-support for others to work on if desired, though. If someone else were to do that work, I'd include it in the distributed version.

As I will be using it and will need to have 2 gateways, I will take a shot at it.

but 2+ gateways is my priority

-- add a field in Devices:
gatewayNumer
then add that to any device and in config add an option to add more than one gateway.

then in send / get data it will need to select the proper ip address

Version 1.7.64 Posted

• Added support for the Ikea FLOALT panel WS 60x60 color temperature LED panel.

Another ZigBee from GLEDOPTO please Nathan, if you're so minded:

Hi Nathan,

just to let you know, there's a LEDVANCE version of the "Osram Garden Pole RGBW Mini" light - the ID is "Gardenpole Mini RGBW Z3"

I added it manually to the "supportedDevices" file but it would be great if you could add this into the next version as well.

Thanks!

Guido

Thanks Nick. I'll add that to the next release.

Ooh - another GLEDOPTO LED strip controller. This '5-in-1' controller actually has five identities as it can control five different types of strip. So it identifies differently (but with the same unique id) depending on mode:

I now have a version 90% ready that supports up to 10 hue hubs (I am well beyond 50 bulbs) but still in testing.

I have been using version 1.7.63 to add the software mods.

Nathan, is there any pgm changes after that version or only additional light bulbs .. in supportedDevices.py
(I have several light bulbs that were not in the supported list - original philips hue. It looks like they are just changing model numbers for fun.)

Then I could easily merge my version with yours.

I still need to clean up some rough corners

Karl

ps
This have to a well written plugin, that I could easily modify.
though adding multiple hue hubs needed some structural changes in the dicts.
all are now like: lightsDict[hubnumer][old structure], then loop over hubNumber etc..

Hi Nick.

Thanks. I'll add those to the next patch release as well.

Hi Karl.

Thanks for doing all that work! And no, there have been no changes to anything but the supportedDevices.py file since version 1.7.63, so merging my small changes with your larger changes should be painless. Once you're ready to release your changes, we should probably ask others with more than one Hue hub to beta test it for a bit before merging the changes to the final release version. Thoughts?

I now have a version 90% ready that supports up to 10 hue hubs (I am well beyond 50 bulbs) but still in testing.

I have been using version 1.7.63 to add the software mods.

Nathan, is there any pgm changes after that version or only additional light bulbs .. in supportedDevices.py
(I have several light bulbs that were not in the supported list - original philips hue. It looks like they are just changing model numbers for fun.)

Then I could easily merge my version with yours.

This have to a well written plugin, that I could easily modify.
though adding multiple hue hubs needed some structural changes in the dicts.
all are now like: lightsDict[hubnumer][old structure], then loop over hubNumber etc..

I am thinking to buy a second hub or maybe switch to Hubitat (I would have a second Z-Wave controller too)

Nathan,
I am ready to hand out / over the plugin.

I have added
1. some device types
2. added in config and device edit and actions a field to set the hub number 0...9
3. added some pint to log menu items like print overview of all lights, groups, sensors, print dict for specific device, to show the whole definition of new devices
something like this:

3. added the hub number to the address field like (ID 5) to (ID 1-5)
4. and did some minor code changes .. small bugs / inconsistencies eg int(..., None) to int( ...,-1) as int(None) does not work


how do you want to proceed?
send you my version, post it, on GitHub ...

I still need to add a list of changes to code and supported devices I added.

It should convert the old format with a fixed hub number automatically, but I have only tested that once

Hi Marco.

I am thinking to buy a second hub or maybe switch to Hubitat (I would have a second Z-Wave controller too)

The Hue hub and the Hubitat provide very different features. The Hue hub is very limited compared to the Hubitat Elevation C7. In fact, I recently set up and tried out a Hubitat Elevation C7, using it with the Hue hub and a number of Z-Wave devices. It's a solid Z-Wave controller and more reliable compared to the old Aeotec Z-Stick I've been using with Indigo. It has a built-in ZigBee interface as well, but I didn't pair any ZigBee items with it directly, so I can't speak to it's ZigBee functions. It isn't limited to ZigBee 3.0 products like the Hue hub is though. It also has a bit more powerful processor for automations than the aging design of the Hue hub (even the 2nd gen Hue hub), so the Hubitat can handle more complex automations and more devices than the hue hub. The Hubitat isn't as flexible as Indigo, though, so if you have a wide variety of integrations (basically, anything that uses a serial or non-HTTP API), the Hubitat won't work well. But it's still much more flexible than the Hue hub. Just keep in mind that even though Hue bulbs use ZigBee for communication, they only work with the Hue hub, so if you have Philips or Signify branded lights, they will only work with the Hue hub (AFAIK anyway). Hue sensors, like the motion sensors and the various buttons and switches, however, can work with other ZigBee controllers.

Hi Karl.

Nathan,
I am ready to hand out / over the plugin.

I have added
1. some device types
2. added in config and device edit and actions a field to set the hub number 0...9
3. added some pint to log menu items like print overview of all lights, groups, sensors, print dict for specific device, to show the whole definition of new devices
...
3. added the hub number to the address field like (ID 5) to (ID 1-5)
4. and did some minor code changes .. small bugs / inconsistencies eg int(..., None) to int( ...,-1) as int(None) does not work

Great! Thanks for doing all that!

I don't actually use GitHub very often, but maybe you could push your changes up to the GitHub repository. I can then pull it and (try to) merge it with the minor changes I've made (just added new device support). I think we'll need to ask folks here who have more than 1 Hue hub to test. I don't have multiple hubs to test with. We can coordinate more through private messages as well, so we're not flooding others on this thread with communications.

nathan,

here the files on my dropbox
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/qdt63j5w5ko10nd/AAD70mD0FiBOw0DJ3oZNQOXRa?dl=0
1. zipped plugin
2. diff output of old and my version for all py and xml files, including the supporteddevices

i have left the version number as is

my email is karlwachs at me com
