I’m running HA 107.7 with emulated_hue working fine in a docker environment. Since there are many breaking changes moving to the current version, I decided to build new using an rpi4.
I have most of it working, however, getting emulated_hue working is going nowhere. If I try to do the automated install, I get to the point where it asks me to press a button on the bridge, yet I read somewhere else that the emulated hue is always “pressing the button”, but it fails at this point.
I looked at http::80/description.xml and there is plenty there, but looking at /api/v2/lights just shows “{}” empty brackets.
I’ve checked that the *.py files match those on the latest github repository, but I can’t get it to recognize my lights. Configuration file currently looks like this:
emulated_hue:
# type: alexa
host_ip: 192.168.0.202
listen_port: 80
expose_by_default: true #<- tried true and false
exposed_domains:
- light #<- tried with and without this
entities:
light.alexa_virtual:
name: "Alexa Virtual Light"
hidden: false
light.security_check:
name: "security check"
hidden: false
light.office:
name: "My Office Light"
hidden: false
I’ve tried several variations of commenting out certain lines as I’ve discovered while reading other’s plight trying to get it to work.
Is there some secret sauce that I’m missing or does it not work the same as in 107.7? I’m really stumped on this and I thought I knew all the tricks building my first HA system and failing on many levels but finally succeeding. It’s been running several years. But I have run out of ideas on this emulated hue integration. It seems to be there, but does not recognize my lights (real or virtual).
Thanks for any help you can lend.
