RGB support

[JohanLeirnes]

RGB and RGBW support is needed. Somthing like this may help?

There seem to bee alot of HSB(HSV) to RGB converters out there. Maby this can help: https://gist.github.com/eyecatchup/9536706

I have been playing around with this issue a couple of days now. I got this working with good results. Please see PR https://github.com/home-assistant/homebridge-homeassistant/pull/85

Oh nice.. tried to install yours the crude way of just copy pasting your git onto my computer but im getting this error when trying to start my homebridge now

Error: Cannot find module 'request'

How would one go about installing your modified homebridge-homeassistant? :D Or should i just wait for the PR to be commited :D

[tobre6]

I'm sure there is something else wrong, because I changed basically only light.js accessory file. Try to replace that.

[JohanLeirnes]

Ok will try

Hmm well it seems it has issues with siri. When changing color manually it only sets them to a maximum of 255. But after issuing a change color command with siri it tries to change color beyond that spectrum resulting in nothing.

After chatting to siri and asking her to change to color to red (nothing happend and after that i cannot change color of the lamp:

To get it working again i need to power cycle the lamp in home.

[JohanLeirnes]

Also the corresponding colors to the hue with some saturation is well not accurate :P

[tobre6]

I confirmed siri issue. I will look into this. But colors corresponding to real life is tricky. It depends on the leds and hardware. :)

But at least it is a start. :)

[JohanLeirnes]

Another way of doing this would be to have a mqtt scetch that reports both RGB and HSV values of the lamp and using the HSV values here on the homebrige plugin and the rgb ones on HASS.

This scetch has all that but i am unable to compile it due to some iram issues.

https://github.com/ge0rg/WiFI-RGBWW-module

[JohanLeirnes]

But that would be only for mqtt and not for all RGB/RGBW/RGBWW lamps :D

[JohanLeirnes]

here is the debug when askin siri to change color to pink:

[JohanLeirnes]

The difference in chaning color manually and asking siri to do so is that siri sends 4 commands (on, brightness, hue and saturation) and when only changing colors only hue and saturation is sent.

I'm using this sketch on my hardware: https://github.com/tobre6/mqtt-h801

I will investigate siri issue.

[tobre6]

I fixed siri issue.
