Implement sensors

[alexyao2015]

Sensors endpoint isn't currently supported. This results in Hue essentials effects stored on the bridge not functioning.

[marcelveldt]

What exactly does a sensor have to do with effects ? What sensor is it missing exactly ? Adding some sensors from HASS should be pretty easy I guess.

[alexyao2015]

It seems that hue essentials uses some sensor stuff to get effects working on the bridge only without having to use the phone. If you try adding those effects, you will see what I mean.

[alexyao2015]

Seems like HueLabs also uses the same sensors trick for effects.

Once this issue has been resolved, it may be possible to add support for simple Routines. This could maybe be achieved by converting them to Home Assistant automations. See further: https://github.com/hass-emulated-hue/core/discussions/103

[ktown007]

The Home Assistant sensors did not import to Alexa, I was thinking to trigger some Alexa routines based on real or virtual HA sensors. The sensors do not show in the json. Do they export automatically or is there come configuration required?

Let me know if there is more info needed.

[Madd0g]

will it be possible to support triggering routines on the echo with the sensors feature? I'd love to be able to trigger echo routines based on HA entities

HI! how can I control hue emulation with echo device?
