Philips Hue api v2

[gjniewenhuijse]

Has anyone already made any code for the Philips Hue api V2?

Why the v2 api? because i want to trigger dynamic scenes and thats not possible in the v1 api.

Please correct my code is you see improvements.

Code:

Can anyone help me to setup an evenstream connection?

Migration Guide to the new Hue API - Philips Hue Developer Program (meethue.com)

The V2 API supports proactive notifications on changes through Server-Sent Events (SSE) under the /eventstream endpoint:

curl --insecure -N -H 'hue-application-key: <appkey>' -H 'Accept: text/event-stream' https://<ipaddress>/eventstream/clip/v2

Events have an id, timestamp, type (‘update’, ‘add’, ‘delete’, ‘error’), and data field which contains the changed properties of the resource in the same format as a GET response on the same resource type. The following is an example event stream that would result from turning a light on and off:

id: 1617322504:0
data: [{"creationtime":"2021-04-02T00:15:04Z","data":[{"id":"4413c8fd-6643-48b5-ad02-59453edf8a61","id_v1":"/lights/1","on":{"on":true},"type":"light"}],"id":"19845c30-2e4c-4205-a7b4-8bd496f3407d","type":"update"}]

id: 1617322505:0
data: [{"creationtime":"2021-04-02T00:15:05Z","data":[{"id":"4413c8fd-6643-48b5-ad02-59453edf8a61","id_v1":"/lights/1","on":{"on":false},"type":"light"}],"id":"bea68344-a36c-4bfd-a658-97830e4e2b1a","type":"update"}]

On HTTP1.1, you will need a separate connection for the SSE request and regular requests, but we recommend using HTTP2 to multiplex them over a single connection which is more resource efficient.

Currently there is a 1 second rate limit on the amount of event containers the Bridge will send. If the same property has changed twice within that timeframe, you only get the last state. If multiple resources have changed within that timeframe, you will get multiple events grouped in a single container.

You can adapt this code for your use case: https://forum.logicmachine.net/showthrea...1#pid15941
Add headers to initial request lines and change APPKEY to the actual application key:

Code:

1234567

sock:send(   'GET ' .. path .. ' HTTP/1.1\r\n' ..   'Host: ' .. host .. '\r\n' ..   'Accept: text/event-stream\r\n' ..   'hue-application-key: APPKEY\r\n' ..   '\r\n' )

i think i do something wrong because the output of the lines is the same as the bridge html source what i see in the browser

Code:

123456789101112131415161718192021222324252627282930313233

if not sock then   host = 'my bridge ip'   port = 80   path = '/eventstream/clip/v2'   appkey = 'mysecretappkey'   sock = require('socket').tcp()   sock:settimeout(10)   res, err = sock:connect(host, port)   if res then     sock:send(       'GET ' .. path .. ' HTTP/1.1\r\n' ..       'Host: ' .. host .. '\r\n' ..       'Accept: text/event-stream\r\n' ..       'hue-application-key: ' .. appkey .. '\r\n' ..       '\r\n'     )   else     log('connect failed: ' .. tostring(err))     sock:close()   end end line, err = sock:receive() if line then   log('line: ' .. line) else   log('receive failed: ' .. tostring(err))   sock:close()   sock = nil end

Maybe some extra headers are needed. What do you get in the output?

same url in the browser

[admin]

It can return 404 if the appkey is incorrect.

[gjniewenhuijse]

It can return 404 if the appkey is incorrect.

but its the same appkey as i use for the normal connection from the other example. And there it works.

with curl the code is:
curl --insecure -N -H 'hue-application-key: <appkey>' -H 'Accept: text/event-stream' https://<ipaddress>/eventstream/clip/v2

I see https.. Do the example also setup a https connection? and is this to port 80 or 443?

[admin]

Does it work for you with curl? HTTPS is 443 but some extra code is needed for the raw socket to use encryption: https://forum.logicmachine.net/showthrea...903#pid903

[gjniewenhuijse]

Does it work for you with curl? HTTPS is 443 but some extra code is needed for the raw socket to use encryption: https://forum.logicmachine.net/showthrea...903#pid903

yep, curl for windows code works:
curl --insecure -N -H "hue-application-key: sameapiuserasbefore" -H "Accept: text/event-stream" https://myipaddress/eventstream/clip/v2

and thx, the raw socket example works also.

working code for evenstream

Code:

12345678910111213141516171819202122232425262728293031323334353637383940414243444546

if not sock then   host = 'fillyourip'   port = 443   proto = 'tlsv12'   path = '/eventstream/clip/v2'   appkey = 'fillyouruser'   require('ssl')   sock = require('socket').tcp()   sock:settimeout(10)   res, err = sock:connect(host, port)   if res then     sock = ssl.wrap(sock, proto)       res, err = sock:dohandshake()     if res then       sock:send(         'GET ' .. path .. ' HTTP/1.1\r\n' ..         'Host: ' .. host .. '\r\n' ..         'Accept: text/event-stream\r\n' ..         'hue-application-key: ' .. appkey .. '\r\n' ..         '\r\n'       )         else         log('handshake failed: ' .. tostring(err))       end   else     log('connect failed: ' .. tostring(err))     sock:close()   end end line, err = sock:receive() if line then   --log('line: ' .. line)   if line:find(': hi') then     log('connection ok: ', line)   elseif line:find('data:') then     --status = line:split(':')[2]     log('data', line)   end else   log('receive failed: ' .. tostring(err))   sock:close()   sock = nil end

[gjniewenhuijse]

parsing the output is another thing:

line output: data: [{"creationtime":"2022-02-03T13:35:32Z","data":[{"id":"f2ef58b3-818e-45ea-a291-325e8eeb97bc","id_v1":"/lights/10","on":{"on":false},"owner":{"rid":"0120cec8-b58e-4206-a409-2bd99055af55","rtype":"device"},"type":"light"}],"id":"49142b93-3da7-49dc-9ad6-10809df8fe9d","type":"update"}]

Code:

12

line = string.sub(line,8,-2) -- remove "data: [" and the last ] character line = json.pdecode(line)

This works

But the second output combines more lines, how to decode this line?
line output: 
data: [{"creationtime":"2022-02-03T13:35:32Z","data":[{"id":"728be63c-dc61-42b1-9a84-54daeff76046","id_v1":"/groups/0","on":{"on":false},"type":"grouped_light"}],"id":"b201d09a-0ab2-4a60-b72f-3a099841ebbc","type":"update"},{"creationtime":"2022-02-03T13:35:32Z","data":[{"id":"33b4f136-c59e-4270-83af-814c4f5ba856","id_v1":"/groups/18","on":{"on":false},"type":"grouped_light"}],"id":"e2860e1b-ebd0-40b0-81ed-f1c0b27163a3","type":"update"},{"creationtime":"2022-02-03T13:35:32Z","data":[{"id":"7a8f900c-c312-403a-bf73-9d2fcb005489","id_v1":"/groups/19","on":{"on":false},"type":"grouped_light"}],"id":"1cc814e9-9210-4e75-92c0-29a543c32dcb","type":"update"}]

I would like to contribute on this and started with the Hue discovey by changing the script i found from https://forum.logicmachine.net/showthrea...4#pid24214
Below the modified version that gives all the Hue Bridge information with most important the IP address.

Code:

123456789

hue = io.readproc('avahi-browse _hue._tcp') lines = hue:split('\n') for _, line in ipairs(lines) do   ip, port, name, descr = unpack(line:split('\t'))   if descr then     log(ip, port, name, descr)   end end

Hi @gjniewenhuijse,

Have you been able to make any progress on using api V2? like you, I need to use dynamic scenes and motion sensors.

thanks you
