Unfortunetly this require some small customization to run in on MacOS. I recommend to run it in docker container or ubuntu machine in virtual box
OK, I finally get it running succesfully on VirtualBox on Mac with Ubuntu. Now it able to find the Emulator in Hue iOS app, but asking to press the Link button, I click on the Activate Web UI from diyhue but it nothing happened, what's wrong?
Hmm, I hope you connect that Ubuntu VM directly to mac network adapter, because it needs his on mac + ip on your network. Try to wipe hue app data, maybe while you play it cache a certificate that need to be deleted.
I forget, be sure you generate the certificate while the network is properly setup because the generated cert is based on mac address of the main interface. So better delete the cert in /opt/hue-emulator/cert.pem, run again the installation script and wipe the hue app data (on iPhone reinstall the app)
Thanks! it works now I just rerun the install script and reinstall iOS hue app. Does this emulator work with MacOS Hue Sync app?
yes, you may face one issue if hue entertainment broadcast remain on. Keep in mind that only ESP8266 are in realtime sync, for others you may see a 0.5 sec delay
Thanks, I get it all working now but after I reboot my system it seem failed to connect. Especially the link button things. Any easy solution? I'm actually bought several Yeelight V2 RGB bulbs, and few strip plus arriving tomorrow just to mimic Hue bridge so I can use those awesome Hue third-party app like DJLight etc.
Can be multiple reasons, check if something else is listening on the ports used by hue-emulator. Perform the debugging specified in Wiki. Probably you can see what is the issue by executing:
cd /opt/hue-emulator && sudo ./HueEmulator3.py
. Paste here the error if is not something you can't understand.
I typed the cmd you list above and I get a lot of:
"GET /api/config HTTP/1.1" 200 -
I was trying use Ambee app on iOS to find the emu bridge, until it prompt me to press the link button, I press on the web UI "Activate" button but it can't add it, and it go back to the searching stage, why's that?
There's no any app using the port 80.
I have no clue what happened but i believe is possible the mac address or something at vm network level changed. Try from you mac (not ubuntu vm) the command curl https://{vm ip}/api/nouser/config -v -k
. The verbose will show the CN of the certificate. Check if the prefix and suffix is identical with the mac address of the VM. Also check if the ip from the command output json is the one that the vm is currently using.
I checked with the command curl thing on Mac and it all seem working fine. They both have the same MAC address and correct CN & IP no. (in my case which is 192.168.0.133) Here's the verbose: `
GET /api/nouser/config HTTP/1.1 Host: 192.168.0.133 User-Agent: curl/7.54.0 Accept: /
< HTTP/1.1 200 OK < Server: nginx < Date: Thu, 13 Dec 2018 11:19:44 GMT < Content-type: application/json < Content-Length: 227 <
Now I able to get my Light DJ app working, but I can't connect with iControlHue app, it used to be fine before, what else can I try?
Also a newbie question, how to update the repo in Ubuntu? Thanks
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade. For ios app's i cannot provide too much support because i don't use.
Sorry I may not say correctly, how to update diyhue repo ? I typed the code it seem update Ubuntu itself?
If you used the easy installer, Delete everything in the /opt/hue-emulator
folder apart from cert.pem
and the config file. Then re-run the easy install script. If you did a manual install. Delete your existing install, but backup your cert.pem
and config. Then reinstall following the same steps you used to install it the first time. After that just replace cert.pem
and the config with your backed up versions. For docker just stop and remove the running container, pull the latest image and then container again with the same command you used to start it the first time.
@cheesemarathon the easy installer script preserve config.json and cert.pem files, so only the execution of this script is needed to upgrade the hue emulator code.
Ah! Even easier!

Hi, I'm a total newbie and I tried my very best to install but still failed. Here's my log when I perform:
