Hi, yes, #94 is the correct way to access the API to control lights without the interface. We recently changed the API endpoint names in branch dev_2.2
, but the idea is the same.
thanks for the response. follow up question, if i have multiple led devices (ie MainLED, SecondLED) and only want to address the change in one how would i vary that?
SetActiveEffectForAll
is obviously going to change them all, would i use SetActiveEffectForMainLED
-- using python
@beardfacefacebeard Check out our dev_2.2
branch, there is a complete API documentation with examples. To be able to select a specific device, you should pass the device id as a query, like here:
Also I strongly suggest to build your scripts with the new API endpoints, since the ones in main
branch will not be backwards compatible after the new release.
im really sorry for my ignorance but i have no idea where that is. im fairly new to github and cant find the documentation youre referring to. i feel completely lost. i appreciate your patience
@beardfacefacebeard In the branch selector, choose dev_2.2
and install that version.
After you install it, go to the web interface and on the sidebar there will be the API doc link:
oh, no wonder i was so lost.. thank you. this really is some amazing stuff. i appreciate it all so much.
i have everything running and it all works quite well. the effects are amazing.. but when i implement this into the project i am working on the rpi will not have internet access at all and will operate headless. im not really much for coding but i can do some simple things.. i was hoping to be able to cycle through effects with a tactile button press or a rotary switch if possible. im not sure if this can be easily attained or not, and if not that is ok. thanks for your time, and i appreciate all the work that has already been put into this. it is truly fantastic.
also, noting that this isnt really an issue i just wasnt sure how else to contact/question this. sorry if its not the proper way to go about things.
i just saw this https://github.com/TobKra96/music_led_strip_control/issues/94 and i am wondering if this is the same idea.. sorry for a duplicate question
