Hue2MQTT

Python Hue to MQTT Bridge.

This is a forked version to include build and packaging for Calaos-OS

What and Why?

Hue2MQTT lets you control your Hue setup using MQTT and publishes the current state in real-time.

  • Python 3.8+ with type hints and asyncio
  • Uses the excellent aiohue library to communicate with Hue.
  • Control your lights using MQTT
  • Receive live events (i.e button pushes, motion sensors) in real-time.
  • No polling your Hue Bridge for changes
  • IPv6 Support

Configuration

Hue2MQTT is configured using hue2mqtt.toml.

# Hue2MQTT Default Config File

[mqtt]
# use host.docker.internal to connect to mqtt broker installed on docker host
# host = "host.docker.internal"
host = "::1"
port = 1883
enable_tls = false
force_protocol_version_3_1 = true

enable_auth = false
username = ""
password = ""

topic_prefix = "hue2mqtt"

[hue]
ip = "192.0.2.2"  # or IPv6: "[2001:db0::1]"
username = "some secret here"

If you do not know the username for your bridge, find it using hue2mqtt --discover.

Running Hue2MQTT

Usually, it is as simple as running hue2mqtt.

Usage: hue2mqtt [OPTIONS]

  Main function for Hue2MQTT.

Options:
  -v, --verbose
  -c, --config-file PATH
  --discover
  --help                  Show this message and exit.

Bridge Status

The status of Hue2MQTT is published to hue2mqtt/status as a JSON object:

{"online": true, "bridge": {"name": "Philips Hue", "mac_address": "ec:b5:fa:ab:cd:ef", "api_version": "1.45.0"}}

If online is false, then all other information published by the bridge should be assumed to be inaccurate.

The bridge object contains information about the Hue Bridge, if available.

Getting information about Hue

Information about the state of Hue is published to MQTT as retained messages. Messages are re-published when the state changes.

Lights

Information about lights is published to hue2mqtt/light/{{UNIQUEID}} where UNIQUEID is the Zigbee MAC of the light.

e.g hue2mqtt/light/00:17:88:01:ab:cd:ef:01-02

{"id": 1, "name": "Lounge Lamp", "uniqueid": "00:17:88:01:ab:cd:ef:01-02", "state": {"on": false, "alert": "none", "bri": 153, "ct": 497, "effect": "none", "hue": 7170, "sat": 225, "xy": [0, 0], "transitiontime": null, "reachable": true, "color_mode": null, "mode": "homeautomation"}, "manufacturername": "Signify Netherlands B.V.", "modelid": "LCT012", "productname": "Hue color candle", "type": "Extended color light", "swversion": "1.50.2_r30933"}

Groups

A group represents a group of lights, referred to as Rooms and Zones in the Hue app.

Information about lights is published to hue2mqtt/group/{{GROUPID}} where GROUPID is an integer.

hue2mqtt/group/3 {"id": 3, "name": "Lounge", "lights": [24, 21, 20, 3, 5], "sensors": [], "type": "Room", "state": {"all_on": false, "any_on": false}, "group_class": "Living room", "action": {"on": false, "alert": "none", "bri": 153, "ct": 497, "effect": "none", "hue": 7170, "sat": 225, "xy": [0, 0], "transitiontime": null, "reachable": null, "color_mode": null, "mode": null}}

Sensors

Sensors represent other objects in the Hue ecosystem, such as switches and motion sensors. There are also a number of "virtual" sensors that the Hue Hub uses to represent calculated values (e.g daylight), but these are ignored by Hue2MQTT.

Information about sensors is published to hue2mqtt/sensor/{{UNIQUEID}} where UNIQUEID is the Zigbee MAC of the device.

e.g hue2mqtt/sensor/00:17:88:01:ab:cd:ef:01-02

Switch

{"id": 10, "name": "Lounge switch", "type": "ZLLSwitch", "modelid": "RWL021", "manufacturername": "Signify Netherlands B.V.", "productname": "Hue dimmer switch", "uniqueid": "00:17:88:01:ab:cd:ef:01-02", "swversion": "6.1.1.28573", "state": {"lastupdated": "2021-07-10T11:37:58", "buttonevent": 4002}, "capabilities": {"certified": true, "primary": true, "inputs": [{"repeatintervals": [800], "events": [{"buttonevent": 1000, "eventtype": "initial_press"}, {"buttonevent": 1001, "eventtype": "repeat"}, {"buttonevent": 1002, "eventtype": "short_release"}, {"buttonevent": 1003, "eventtype": "long_release"}]}, {"repeatintervals": [800], "events": [{"buttonevent": 2000, "eventtype": "initial_press"}, {"buttonevent": 2001, "eventtype": "repeat"}, {"buttonevent": 2002, "eventtype": "short_release"}, {"buttonevent": 2003, "eventtype": "long_release"}]}, {"repeatintervals": [800], "events": [{"buttonevent": 3000, "eventtype": "initial_press"}, {"buttonevent": 3001, "eventtype": "repeat"}, {"buttonevent": 3002, "eventtype": "short_release"}, {"buttonevent": 3003, "eventtype": "long_release"}]}, {"repeatintervals": [800], "events": [{"buttonevent": 4000, "eventtype": "initial_press"}, {"buttonevent": 4001, "eventtype": "repeat"}, {"buttonevent": 4002, "eventtype": "short_release"}, {"buttonevent": 4003, "eventtype": "long_release"}]}]}}

Light Sensor

{"id": 5, "name": "Hue ambient light sensor 1", "type": "ZLLLightLevel", "modelid": "SML001", "manufacturername": "Signify Netherlands B.V.", "productname": "Hue ambient light sensor", "uniqueid": "00:17:88:01:04:b7:b5:20-02-0400", "swversion": "6.1.1.27575", "state": {"lastupdated": "2021-07-10T12:28:17", "dark": true, "daylight": false, "lightlevel": 14606}, "capabilities": {"certified": true, "primary": false}}

Controlling Hue

Lights and Groups can be controlled by publishing objects to the hue2mqtt/light/{{UNIQUEID}}/set or hue2mqtt/group/{{GROUPID}}/set topics.

The object should be a JSON object containing the state values that you wish to change.

{"on": "true"}

Docker

Included is a basic Dockerfile and docker-compose example.

Connections to Docker Host

To establish a MQTT-Connection to the Docker Host (localhost is the docker instance) use host.docker.internal inside hue2mqtt.toml

host = "host.docker.internal"
