Hue Hub - Link Every Restart #1053

Closed patrickoleary1977 closed 2 years ago

The plugin works great. However, every time I restart Homebridge I have to relink the Hue hub by pressing the button. Otherwise, its exactly what I need. Thoughts?

PEBCAK Problem exists between chair and keyboard.

I have the same issue - probably also PEBCAK, but I don't see what I am doing wrong. How did you fix it?

ItsaBastI commented 2 years ago

Ok, I fixed it, too. Here's how: After you linked Hue Hub to DeCONZ (after you "pushed" the button in the Phoscon UI) there will be a line like this in the log:

[deCONZ] Phoscon-Gateway: created user - please edit config.json and restart homebridge "platforms": [ { "platform": "Hue", "users": { "00000000000000": "99999999999" } } ]

You may have to scroll up through the log to find this line - this was my fault, I didn't scroll up far enough.

copy "users" and the data, don't forget the "," after "Hue"

find "Plattform": "Hue" in the configuration, add the colon and paste the data.

Save. Restart.
