Check out my latest post in the "Dev.-Blog"!!

💡 wiz_light - V 0.4.0 (out for testing)

One short note: If you have multible (>5) bulb connected to the HASS, please try to bring all online if you restart the HASS service/container. Becuase on older HASS version the startup can be slowed down if multible bulbs are offline.

There is an issue with bulb when these are offline on start up and swichted on if HASS is started. The bulbs will stay in "not available". This seems so be a bug 😉. To fix that you have to switch the entry to "disabled" and than back to "enabled" via the UI (small ⚙️ in the upper left corner of the UI card).

There are changes in the bulb detection function. I can't test all possible bulb types in real because I have only two of them 😉. TW (Tunable White) bulbs seems tho had some issues with the effects. Should be fixed in the current branch.

💪 Change Log

New in 0.4.: The bulb type and featerus will be autodetected.
New in 0.4.: Fixing some other small issues. Updat to pywizlight 0.4.5
Working ConfigFlow: Now the bulbs can be configured via UI
Devices Registration: The Bulb now shows up as "Light" device
[BETA] The colors now "correct" regarding the HS to RGB-CW conversation in the WiZ app. Thanks to @brettonw for incredible work!(should be tested with non-RGB and non-Kelvin bulbs!! )
Poll Service: Now it is possible to trigger a status update from the bulb via HASS service. This can be helpful for automations (e.g. motion detectors).
DNS and IPs Support: The bulbs can now be added with an DNS name or ip.
Bulb Library Moved: The "YAML" file was removed (because of a policy from HASS dev) and moved to the pywizlight repo..
Tones of other fixes, improvement and removed typos 😉

Still missing but "Work in Progress":

Registration of the bulb to HASS via UDP API. There are features to register the HASS to the bulb to send UDP packages to the HASS if the state of the bulb was changed. This will made the Poll Service obsolete.
A User Documentaion based on HASS Docs. (with screen shots etc.) will be added (soon 😉)

Fix "Unavailable" Bug

To fix bulbs which are stuck in a "unavailability" if they are offline at startup:

What is declined or rejected:

Change of the speed of the transition from on to off and off->on. This is not supported via the UDP API and can only be configured via WiZ App.
Custom Effekts will not be implemented in the HASS integration becaus of missing feature in HASS.

Install for testing

Loggon to your HA or HASS with SSH
Got to the HA custom_components directory within the HA installation path (if this is not available - create this directory).
Run cd custom_components
Run git clone https://github.com/sbidy/wiz_light within the custom_components directory
Run mv wiz_light/custom_components/wiz_light/* wiz_light/ to move the files in the correct diretory
Restart your HA/HASS service in the UI with <your-URL>/config/server_control
Add the bulbs to your configuration.yaml - You can not add the bulbs in the HA UI!! (configFlow is missing)

HA config

You can now use the HASS UI to add the devices/integration.

To enable the platform integration after installation add

light:
  - platform: wiz_light
    name: <Name of the device>
    host: <IP of the bulb>
  - platform: wiz_light
    name: <Name of the device#2>
    host: <IP of the bulb#2>

If you want to use the integration as switch

switch:
  - platform: wiz_light
    name: <Name of the device>
    host: <IP of the socket>
