Room-Computer

Room-Computer is a simple room controller and is basically a controller for your gadgets. This is a work-in-progress so keep in mind that more features will be added in the future. Check the feature list to view all of the current supported things and stuff.

Installation

git clone https://github.com/E-Almqvist/roomcomputer.git
pip install -r requirements.txt

Then run the installation script ./install.sh. This script will make a symlink to /opt/roomcomputer and link hue_cmd.py to /usr/bin/hue.

Getting started

BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING!: Register a new application and user for your HUE bridge. Follow this guide to get started.

Run the setup.sh script (if you did not run the install script) in order to copy the necessary files to ~/.config/roomcomputer/. If you are planning to create a service for the speech_daemon.py with systemd; then you can specify its configuration file as the first argument: speech_daemon.py /path/to/config/config.json.

Usage

HUE Light presets

You can create presets in the ~/.config/roomcomputer/presets.json file. Follow this syntax (and JSON syntax of course):

{
	"mypreset": {
		"color": [178, 199, 255],
		"brightness": 100
	},
}

The color is in RGB format (8bit) and brightness is also 0-255 (8bit).
