Control RGB Light Strip Over Home Assistant

Hi,
I have an rgb light strip that takes commands such as
http://10.x.x.x/on
http://10.x.x.x/off
http://10.x.x.x/set/hexvalue

and you can see the current state with commands such as
http://10.x.x.x/color - returns hex value
http://10.x.x.x/bright - returns brightness

How can I control this with home assistant?

You could try with a RESTful Switch for basic on/off.
Are you able to change they way your LED works to work with MQTT instead? Then you could use MQTT JSON Light… That’s what I did for my LED strip so I get full access to the colours and more effects…

Another way / if you can’t change the LED controller, you could create a few shell commands for on/off and hexvalue (pass the value as a parameter) and a few https://home-assistant.io/components/sensor.rest/. Finally create some inpuit_boolean for on/off and either 3 input_number for your R G B values or an input_text for your hex value. Add a few automations that trigger on change of these inputs.

How can I make it have a color selector like a Phillips hue bulb though?

With MQTT JSON Light is automatic

This is what I get

Unfortunately I don’t think I can change to MQTT. How can I do this with http or shell commands?

Not sure how you can get the colour picker without the “right” light component to be honest. This is now a bit it of my area of “expertise” (if there was one)

Maybe someone else can help?

@lolouk44 Hello!

How can i get that card to my home assistant?

I have a RGB bulb and a RGB led strip and i wanna use that color picker with brightness adjustment!

Thanks!

just click/tap on the light icon
If it’s defined as a light and supports dim/colours it’ll show

Hi, did you solve this? I have a smilar setup with HTTP endpoints that take RGB and HUE values and I’d like the get the RGB color picker to show etc.
