Fibaro RGBW Controller not visible as light

[alexander-vitishchenko]

Hi @kaugustyn,

That's right, I planned to implement RGBW integration later, but if you need RGBW support - I can possibly implement it this week.

Luckily, I have Fibaro RGBW Controller 2 installed at home, so it's only about investing my time without buying a new device(s).

@kaugustyn by the way, where should we post the link to HC3 <-> Home Assistant integration, so it becomes available to a broader community?

I've just added a topic at Fibaro Community Forum and wonder if this is gonna help, or there are better alternatives in place

[kaugustyn]

Fibaro community AS community is great and helpful, product has great potential, but... Fibaro as an company behind all HW/SW stuff is a "little bit" conservative . I think it need to take time till community will test it and start to adapt and use, and mainly because many of them did wrote own connectors, scenes, integrations ect. I saw your post and get solution to the test, but I am on beginning of my way to switching to HA an many thing are news to me.

So probably second best place will be HA forum in Hardware or Third party integrations section, and many of us have HC2/HC3 to update our toys as Fibaro did not share firmawe updates out of their solution. MQTT is a great solution here :)

Anyway, for me this improvement is not so much important, so please take your time and do it as "best effort" - I will test it for sure whenever it will be available

Thanks. and regards from PL :)

Hi @kaugustyn

I've just released Fibaro RGBW device support - feel free to check it out and let me know if it works well for you!

By the way - I've implemented passwordless mode to access Fibaro HC3. So you can remove these two redundant QA variables - "hc3Username" and "hc3Password"

Got inspired by another developer at Fibaro forum who apparently works on a similar integration

• I've additionally announced the QuickApp at Home Assistant forum (Third party integrations) - https://community.home-assistant.io/t/fibaro-home-center-3-hc3-integration/351615

Hi
I have done update but will test on morning. Also commented your post on HA forum, so hope it will help a little to promote your solution.

Please let me know once you do the testing. It works for me, but your setup and use-cases could be different.
