Can you please post the logs of the AppDaemon add-on? Wanna make sure that AppDaemon works.

Can you please show your appdaemon.yaml file as well?
it’s empty, I probably got it wrong but it says in the installation part, that everything will be preconfigured.
https://github.com/hassio-addons/addon-appdaemon/blob/v0.2.5/README.md#installation
Installation
The installation of this add-on is pretty straightforward and not different in comparison to installing any other Home Assistant add-on.
Search for the "AppDaemon 4" add-on in the Supervisor add-on store and install it.
Start the "AppDaemon 4" add-on
Check the logs of the "AppDaemon 4" add-on to see if everything went well.
ℹ️ Please note, the add-on is pre-configured to connect with Home Assistant. There is no need to create access tokens or to set your Home Assistant URL in the AppDaemon configuration.
This automatic handling of the URL and token conflicts with the AppDaemon official documentation. The official documentation will state ha_url and token options are required. For the add-on, however, this isn't needed.
Can you please try putting the following into your appdaemon.yaml file?
appdaemon:
latitude: 52.379189
longitude: 4.899431
elevation: 2
time_zone: Europe/Amsterdam
plugins:
HASS:
type: hass
http:
url: http://127.0.0.1:5050
hadashboard:
admin:
api:
With your details for latitude, longitude etc.
I think normally it should automatically create an appdaemon.yaml file during install, but I’m not sure as I’m not using the add-on myself.
i added the config, here is the new log

Here are two screen shots, one of the appdaemon.yaml and one off my config for the dimmer switch.
Unfortunately it’s still now working.
there is an update for appdaemon, i’ll do it and restart homeassistant.
I just checked how HA is receiving the deconz_event and noticed that the name of the switch (dimmer_switch) was wrong.
I updated it but with no success.
Listening form deconz_event:
New config in apps folder:
Oke this looks good, can you please show the log again after you added the yaml config for the dimmer switch?
here is the log again:

If I’m right it is correct, that the “dimmer_switch” entity is not showing up here, due to the event handling of HA?
The event id seems to be correct.
I just saw that the module name in the dimmer config is incorrect. It should be like this:
dimmer_all_lifx:
module: hue_dimmer_switch_deconz
class: HueDimmerSwitch
entities:
switch: dimmer_switch
light: light.all_lifx
Just for your information, the smooth dimming works only with lights integrated with Deconz, the smooth dimming will not work for your Lifx bulbs, the rest will work like turn on/off, calling service etc
unzz, thx.
I would’ve probably never found it.
sad, that i cant do dimming for the lifx bulbs, that was actually my main intension.
https://github.com/Burningstone91/Hue_Dimmer_Deconz
FYI: In your advanced example config the “deconz” is missing too for the module.
Take a look at ControllerX, it’s also an AppDaemon app, but more sophisticated than mine. I don’t know how smooth the dimming is there, you need to check yourself.
Yeah, I just saw that after I corrected your code, thanks for the info.
The thing is, I probably won’t continue with this app (I’ll continue to use it in my system however), because it only supports Deconz and from the feedback I read, people are quite happy qith Cobtroller X, that I mentioned above.
I just tried it and it works quite well, the dimming is not as smooth as i was hoping for but still great and more than enough for daily use. Thx for the tipp.

Just a question i probably already know the answer to; the Hue Tab (zigbee green power) won’t be able to do this, right? You need a battery powered switch for this?
Do you use deconz? What kind of lights do you use and are they connected through deconz as well?
