Cololight custom integration

Hey,

I have been working on a custom integration to support Cololight devices in Home Assistant.

Custom integration, along with documentation, can be found here.

Supported devices include:

  • Cololight Hexagon
  • Cololight LED Strip

Commands to the devices are all over UDP, keeping the taffic local on the network.

Also created a python pycololight library, which is used to send commands to the devices.

Feedback always welcome :v:

I’ve been using this for a couple weeks. Works 1000% better than the native app. Thank you

Hi there,

I like this integration. Is there a way to use the effect modes from the documentation?

Hey @JPvHofe,

Are you able to explain a little more?

Which “effect modes from the documentation” are you referring to?

Hi @Machuca,

There shouldn’t be any need for a code.
When adding a device, you only need to provide host (IP address), and a name for the device in Home Assistant.

When I try to add it, I see this message. Sorry, it is in Spanish

It looks like you’re trying to add the device via HomeKit integration.

This is a custom integration that needs to be installed, and doesn’t operate via HomeKit. You can follow one of the installation methods to add it to Home Assistant.
