Since I saved your API when you foolishly shared it earlier, I changed all of your scene numbers and your lights should now be cycling thru Halloween and Valentine's Day themed scenes. I hope your wife enjoys!
I did similar automation for Christmas Tree but in Node Red and threw a random number generator in the mix so it's not just a simple cycle. That's when I discovered I can't activate the shape-mapping scenes on my tree from any 3rd-party option.
That sounds interesting...I'll need to look at that option. Only issue would be I don't want to end up w/it randomly spending 5 hours on one scene...if it's possible to set an upper limit then I think I'll copy you on that.
I'd really like to have a rule that would parse through external files that listed the scenes I wanted to cycle through depending on the season...set up the rule to use the appropriate file/scenes depending on the time of year. But I have no idea if RM can do that...need to do some reading.
Correct! It does not work using an HTTP POST using Postman directly to the API nor using the Alexa Govee Skill. Using those methods, I can change to the simpler scenes just fine but not the shape-mapped ones.
I don't know if it's related, but the "Like device" groups in the Govee app can only use local BT to connect to the lights, which just seems dumb for a "cloud" app. It's frustrating AF to not have more control over the sequencing and synchronization of the light sets. For "smart" lights, it sure is dumb.
Oh it was just me whining about stuff again...really it's @mavrrick58 who needs you to write an app that does below so people like me will stop bothering him.
However, thanks in part to an app you already wrote (mind reader!) File Manager Device, I (tah-dah!!) created a rule that does the core of above, allows me to cycle through a set of scenes on my Net lights in a recurring loop until I turn things off.
So, I'm encountering a weird issue, and honestly, I can't tell if it's a Govee Integration V2, a Room Lighting issue, or just an internal brain fart of some sort.
I have Govee lights (H7075) working within habitat. I can change colors, adjust brightness, and etc. via the device page with no issues...
But, it seems like when I put them into Room Lighting app, it seems to not take the "Level" setting, and always sets the level to 100...
The cause of this is the fact that the Govee API uses RGB while Hubitat uses HSL or Hue, Saturation, level. Depending on what i researched Level didn't always mean brightness.
Either way when you select a color with a color picker and it is converted to RGB and the brightness is already accounted for in the RGB value. So to prevent the brightness from being applied twice the driver sets the brightness value of the device to 100 it does sound a little off but it.
I guess I could change the driver to always use a level value of 100 when doing the conversion and then set the brightness value after, but would need to test it. That would atleast give the expected brightness value
Either way the conversion back and forth between RGB and HSL isn't perfectly smooth
Looks for a text file in the File Manager as input. Format is similar to what you had above, but without quotes. Third field is the number minutes to pause between records (if omitted defaults to 5).
Just playing with it while my wife is in a store looking at stuff... Very cool! One thing I think would be nice in the future is the ability to have themselves automation start up\stop based on a switch turning on\off.
One thing I noticed is that the time setting prompt kept popping up even before I tapped on any of the time setting fields.
@mavrrick58 - this looks like a great enhancement to your integration!
Thanks, I've been a little worried cuz she's a hard core career person, but she has turned the corner and is really happy to not be going to work today.
Hi, I am struggling to load a different LAN scenes file into a Floor Lamp 2. The original file did not match the availability in the Govee app. However, the file GoveeLanScenes_Lyra_Pro.json matches them perfectly. I updated the settings to this file, saved, initialized, and hit sceneLoad ... multiple times, but the new scenes do not load. I also looked at the app's Govee Scene Management menu, but I wasn't sure what to do. (I tried Extract Scene with the group name in my app, but nothing happened.)
Sorry, as I'm probably missing something obvious. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
Can you attempt to do this again and capture the logging so i can see the error. When i get a chance i will test a fresh install on one of my dev hubs.
I really need the logs to make sure i am seeing what the problem is. There are a few reasons it could have a problem. It may be the Floor Lamp 2 just needs a bit of setup as this ia the first time i know a user is using it. It should be possible to use a different file and if i need to askist the code to link to the Lyra Pro's scene file it is a easy adjustment.
