It is designed for embedded operating systems with very limited resources (successfully tested on the old and outdated wifi router "Linksys WRT54GL").

Hue-shell runs on many shells (sh, dash, ash, bash) and many UNIX operating systems (Linux, MacOS X, FreeBSD, OpenWrt). Hue-shell works well in a small BusyBox environment. Out of the box Hue-shell runs on many single-board computer like Raspberry Pi, Cubieboard, BeagleBone etc.

Installation

sudo sh -c "OPT=install; $(curl -fksSkL http://raw.github.com/Josef-Friedrich/Hue-shell/master/install.sh)"

To install Hue shell manually please read the documentation on the project page.

hue-shell's Issues

SenseHAT turns all lights on when you press the joystick

I have a SenseHAT attached to a Raspberry Pi, where I use hue-shell to control lights. I use the SenseHAT's joystick to turn a video surveillance system on or off. When pressed it triggers (or emulates) a key pressed (ENTER) button event.

When I press the button, all lights are turned on, regardless I shut down the hue service (with hue stop). I've disabled the hue service (with systemctl disable hue-shell.service and hue-detect-bridge.service and hue-detect-lights.service) with same result.

When I press the button I can see this on the log file:
[hue] HTTP_REQUEST: PUT PATH: groups/0/action DATA: {"on":true}

I don't know why it triggers a PUT to all lights.

Thanks
Alfonso

Problem bei Restart des Clients

Hi,

ich übersehe vermutlich etwas Grundlegendes, aber wenn ich den Raspberry auf dem hue-shell installiert ist neu starte, dann wechseln alle zu diesem Zeitpunkt eingeschalteten hue-Lampen die Farbe. Erst werden sie auf den Standard-warmweiß-Ton gestellt und wechseln dann ein wenig durch und schalten final (nachdem der Raspberry wieder hochgefahren ist) auf rot.

Was mache ich hier falsch bzw. was muss ich ändern um dieses Verhalten abzuschalten?

`huescene-breath` not working

huescene-breath not working if hueservice-detect-lights not running

hue get erzeugt nichtkonformes JSON

Bei der Ausgabe von hue get werden die Kommas entfernt und ist somit nicht mehr verarbeitbar.

Lights are set to red when DNS disappears

I've got a confusing issue, where sometimes all the lights that are currently ON turn red. It seems to be related to the network -- specifically DNS -- dropping.

I had originally thought that it was running a scene upon dropping and reconnecting from the hub, but I tried to disable that, and it is still happening.

DEFAULT_SCENE='hueload-random'

The only scene is 'default.scene', which looks like it might set things red, but to try to debug this issue before, I had tried inserting an 'exit' in default.scene before it does anything.

However, it still set the lights red when the DNS server rebooted.

sudo usage

I haven't checked the whole script but i'm pretty sure this script doesn't necessarily need sudo. Could you please provide an option to enable/disable the usage of sudo?

Support randomly generated bridge usernames (required from Feb 2016)

I'll just refer to the official documentation from Philips regarding this:

http://www.developers.meethue.com/documentation/important-whitelist-changes

Please be aware that in the coming months it will no longer be possible to create custom whitelist entries on the Hue bridge. The randomly generated bridge username must be used instead.
It is anticipated this change will be rolled out to the public in February 2016.

This means that if you have developed a Hue Library or have a Hue app in the market which uses a custom whitelist username the bridge authentication will start failing after this date. So of course, if this is the case for your app/library it is strongly advised for you to update your app/library in the coming months to use the randomly generated bridge username.
