Hue and nanoleaf

Hardware

Has anyone created any color loops or synchronized Phillips hue and nanoleaf? I haven’t done much with the color of bulbs an ha but I’m going to start working on that. Just didn’t want to repeat the effort if it’s done.

I’ve got the hue to do the color loop but it seems the aurora component doesn’t support that right now.

There’s an Aurora component! I’ve been keeping my eye out for one, but haven’t found it. Can you share more details?

I found color loops as an option when I added hue bulbs to my frontend. Sounds like you found that too.

yea it works great.

just add that file to your custom components and it will show up like another like. I also had to do a:
‘pip3 install --upgrade nanoleaf’
and then it worked. I then just created a script with two hue strips and a nanoleaf I wanted to color loop. Works perfect!

colorloop_bar:
  alias: Color Loop Bar
  sequence:
    - service: light.turn_on
      data:
        entity_id:
          - light.aurora
          - light.baredge_strip
          - light.barback_strip
        effect: colorloop
        brightness: 180
        transition: 5

I’ll check in to it. I’m running Hass.io so I may be restricted if the PIP command is a requirement. fingers crossed!

Funny… my Aurora is in my “bar” area… Must be popular there!

I’m anxious to get this working, but I am a bit clueless on how to generate the auth code. Instructions state:

Then, call the Setup class like so:

from nanoleaf import setup
token = setup.generate_auth_token(“192.168.1.129”)

What environment am I typing these commands or how to I execute them. I took a stab and put the setup.py on my Mac desktop and tried to run it in Terminal, but got: “from: can’t read /var/mail/nanoleaf”

Any guidance is appreciated.
