I have reuploaded the plugin. It's available in the first post.

Try the newest version and come back if it still fails. There was a change in the API some versions ago that might cause the error you are experiencing.

If I may ask. How does your plugin get the events from the hue bridge ?

Would like to react to events instead of making api calls. ( In case I will be able to create app myself // learning to code atm).

Does your plugin somehow listen to events from the bridge ? Or are you polling the API ? You ...

Is the Pulse command a special Hue Bridge command like colorloop?
Because I would like to change the intensity (from lowest brightness up to highest) and change time (like 10 sec, or 60 sec).

Ahh and btw.:
When I want to set brightness to 100% I have to add the Dim Up command (with 100 at "Dim up ...

My Philips Hue plugin will not work with the IKEA Trådfri bridge. The API is diffrent. But I've seen on the web people using the Philips Hue Bridge with Trådfri lights (without the IKEA bridge). I currently don't have IKEA Trådfri so its hard to make a plugin. If I get my hands on one I will try ...

I got the notification this time, it looks like the last one maybe got stuck in the spamfilter.

New version ready in the first post. Should fix the problem stoffix had and some others. :)

Hi!

Sorry for late reply, the email notification seems to not work anymore.

The error comes because you use lights with no "hue" setting. I only have colored lights, so I have not noticd the error previously. I will look into it.

Oh I see, interesting. What version of Hue do you have? Is it Generation 1, 2 or 3?

Is it "get status as command"?

Hue bridge is gen 2 (there is no gen 3 bridge), most bulbs are gen 1 and some are gen 2.
I have not gotten my hands on gen 3 bulb yet. I have to have use for the bulb to buy one ...

Just got a Hue gen3 starter kit and playing around with your plugin now.

Working pretty well so far! Just wondering, I can't seem to make a cold white. How do I change the Kelvin to 4500?
Using "change to white" makes it lime green and setting the "saturation" to 0 +" brightness" 254 on "change ...

I use the bridge, EG and my own plugin (PhillipsHue), I don't get delays when handeling the lights. I do get delays in handeling events in EG with the remotes. This is because Phillips will only allow pull of data, no push. :(

You mean you get delays when trying to relay message thru Philips' own ...

This is very exciting news! I hope they work with the Hue Bridge (and my plugin for the Hue Bridge). If its only stand alone its not very usable, but if it could be integrated into centrally controlled systems it would be great. Cheaper lightbulbs!

Phillips Hue has light strips, they can be controlled with the PhillipsHue plugin. But Hue is a bit expensive.

That seems to be a correct response.

The "Keyerror" is due to that I suddenly realized that the "non-colored" lights don't have a hue and sat setting. A temporary fix was to catch the error, I will in a future version handle this differently.

It seems like you have a "fake" button imitating the ...

It sort of works :-) The state.change every 10 seconds is gone, but...

Upon pressing a button on the dimmer switch, the plug-in outputs a very angry log in red characters :-)
