hi guys is any one has made a sunrise effect using esphome , im trying to understand the lamba effect without luck
What have got so far.
i get desperate and delete all of it, been trying for hours and a many many effects
If you don’t have an ESPHome configuration to share what you have tried, please at least describe the physical configuration of your device including the type of board you are using and the type of leds as well as any additional circuit components.
As well as a description of what you want this effect to do.
let me explain , im using a esp8266 to turn my light in my aquarium , i want to make a sunrise effect that start with a RGB led strip (ws2812B) from dark blue to white to simulate a sunrise and the after the effect stop turn on a relay in the same esp8266 and turn off the led strip ,
this is one of my test trying to make it work
light:
- platform: fastled_clockless
rgb_order: GRB
pin: GPIO15
num_leds: 200
name: "led pecera"
chipset: ws2812B
id: my_light
effects:
- lambda:

static int state = 0;
auto call = id(my_light).make_call();
call.set_transition_length(3000);

}
call.perform();
state += 1;
if (state == 16){
call.set_effect("None");
state = 0;
// then:
// - switch.turn_on: luz_50
}
switch:
- platform: gpio
name: "luz pecera 50%"
pin: GPIO12
id: luz_50
inverted: true
- platform: gpio

pin: GPIO13
inverted: true
Does the led work in a very simple way, ie without all that effect code?
yes, my problem is after the effect is done and turn off , the transition is still working on the background even when the led is turn off
and getting this error on the log

Hello, this feed is very interesting but sadly it lacks a bit more information for better understanding of what you achieved and how you successfully used the lambda effect 
If you have time to comment on your code that would be great so that I could apply it to my own use case. Thanks in advance !
