Domoticz

Hey there,

I read through all the hue-related wiki entries and forum posts but everyone is talking about how to write a script that sends http requests to the hue bridge...

I don't care about any of that, and I see that the Hue color is supported in the latest stable of Domoticz just fine. All I want to know is how to control the color via LUA script.

I know how to send brightness changes (commandArray[Light]="Set Level 100") but how do I change the color in the same manner? I see the web interface of domoticz supports this already, so surely this should also be exposed to lua scripting, no?
Any clues would be appreciated!

Have you try this for dimming ?

Nothing is explain for color, on my side i create some scène with specific color, a scène/groupe can be activate via JSON

Dimming works without any tricks, just "Set Level 100" without any need for using the REST API. It's just the colors I was wondering about.

Right now I'm using the REST API of the Hue bridge. It works, but of course it's yet another external configuration dependency in the LUA code...

ok sorry, don't understand you try to set "saturation/hue"

Did you find any solution to this?

Yeah I use curl to hit the rest api of the Hue controller. Not great but it does the job.

function hueAlarm()
os.execute('/usr/bin/curl -s -H "Accept: application/json" -X PUT --data \'{"alert": "lselect", "bri":255, "hue":0, "sat":255}\' http://'..hueip..'/api/'..hueusername..'/lights/'..huelight..'/state;')
end

function hueDisarm()
os.execute('/usr/bin/curl -s -H "Accept: application/json" -X PUT --data \'{"alert": "none", "bri":100, "hue":14910, "sat":144}\' http://'..hueip..'/api/'..hueusername..'/lights/'..huelight..'/state;')
end

function hueArm()
os.execute('/usr/bin/curl -s -H "Accept: application/json" -X PUT --data \'{"alert": "none", "bri":255, "hue":25500, "sat":255}\' http://'..hueip..'/api/'..hueusername..'/lights/'..huelight..'/state;')
end
