Set RGBW values via script (JSON)?

[Triangle]

Hi, I would like flash my Hue lights in a certain color when a sensor reached a defined level (for instance CO-2 level). After the flashing i'd like to return the Hue status from before flashing.
In order to do this I have to save the Hue state; via JSON I can retrieve the dim-level, XOffset and YOffset. Next step would be a series of "set" commands to do the flashing and ending with the original state. Setting the dim-level is possible via JSON but is there any way to set the colors (XOffset and YOffset)?

Allthough it's not exactly what you want there is already some native Hue support for this:

You can create a bash script with something like this:

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash

curl -H "Accept: application/json" -X PUT --data '{"alert":"lselect"}' http://<Bridge ip address>/api/<HUE_api_user>/lights/1/state

This will make 1 light blink in the last selected color for that light.

I was looking for the same. It is described here: viewtopic.php?f=4&t=5302&hilit=json+rgbw

Although the JSON command results in an error

Code: Select all

{
   "status" : "ERR"
}

it does work fine.
