csgo-c4-hue-node

These scripts will change the colors of your Philips Hue lights based on the C4 bomb status in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive.

CS:GO C4 Hue Lights

The Python version can be found here: csgo-c4-hue

Features

Installation

  1. Copy gamestate_integration_c4_hue.cfg to your CS:GO cfg directory.

    OS X: /Users/<username>/Library/Application Support/Steam/SteamApps/common/Counter-Strike Global Offensive/csgo/cfg

    Windows: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Counter-Strike Global Offensive\csgo\cfg

  2. Install Node.js and npm if your machine doesn't have them.

  3. Run npm install

  4. Edit csgo-c4-hue.js and fill in the values for your hue bridge IP and hue user.

    Example:

    var HUE_BRIDGE_IP = '192.168.1.100'
    var HUE_USER = '1a2a3a4a5a6a7a8a9a0a'

Usage

Run node csgo-c4-hue.js and node csgo-c4-hue-server.js while playing CS:GO.

The csgo-c4-hue-server.js script will be receiving the gamestate data from CS:GO and it will write the bomb status to the file named bomb_status.

The csgo-c4-hue.js script will be reading the bomb_status file every 250 ms and will change the hue lights depending on what is in that file.

How to make a hue user

You can make a new user by going to the API Debug Tool: http://<your hue bridge ip>/debug/clip.html

For the url input box, enter /api.

For the message body, enter {"devicetype":"csgo_c4#user"}

Now you can press the link button on the bridge and then click the POST button in the API Debug Tool.

You should see a success message along with "username": "<long random character string>" in the command response area.

The long random character string is what needs to be copy/pasted into csgo-c4-hue.py.
