node-red-yeelight

Interact with yeelight lamps on local network. Select each lamp by their id and send them custom commands.

Dependency

• dgram 1.0.1
• net 1.0.2

Instalation

Install dependency before

npm install dgram net

Clone the repository.

git clone git@github.com:Azuxul/node-red-yeelight.git

Then go to your node red directory and install the package

cd ~/.node-red
npm install /path/to/repo

Or you can do everything in the same directory

cd ~/.node-red
git clone git@github.com:Azuxul/node-red-yeelight.git
npm install ./node-red-yeelight

Usage

You need to configure the node by entering the correct lamp id (ex: 0x000000000abc1234) and the command method (ex: set_power).
You can also set up the lamp name (internal to the node, not the yeelight lamp name) to access the last command method params as a node red global variable (with the name “main_lamp” for the method set_power, the variable is “main_lamp.set_power”).

To use the node you need to pass arguments throw node red msg payload as an array. For example, with the method set_power msg.payload should be equals to :

msg.payload = [state, 'smooth', 500]

For more information on commands methods and arguments use the Yeelight WiFi Light Inter-Operation Specification Manual or check Yeelight developer website.

This package has been fully tested with Yeelight color model (firmware version 70), Node-RED v0.20.7 and Node.Js v10.16.3.
