LightifyMe

This library gives you the power to communicate with your Osram Lightify light bulbs. You can control their brightness, color, status and get the metadata such as bulb temperature, name and so on. The library was built with .NET Core 2.1 so you can easily use it on your Mac or Linux machine.

Usage

Initialize your gateway

The gateway is used to communicate with your bulbs, you use it for every action you want to execute on any bulb.

var gateway = new GatewayController();
await gateway.Init("gateway_local_ip");

There are various methods to obtain your gateway ip address, the easiest one being by checking your router home panel where all the connected devices are displayed.

Fetch all light bulbs

var bulbs = gateway.GetBulbs();

Keep in mind that the data isn't updated by some magic handler behind the controller. You fetch the bulb data at time x and if you want an update you must fetch it again. This is the only solution available right now with this library.

Turn on and off a bulb

gateway.TurnOn(bulb); // Turn on your light bulb
gateway.TurnOff(bulb); // Turn off your light bulb

These two functions will update your bulb object status. So the property IsOn will be flipped according to the case;

Mass turn on/off

gateway.TurnAllOn(); // Turn all the available lightsbulbs on
gateway.TurnAllOff(); // Turn all the available lightsbulbs off

If you've already fetched your light bulb objects before, keep in mind this function won't update your objects IsOn property like the independent functions!

Change color

var color = Color.FromArgb(255, 123, 182, 83); // Or Color.DodgerBlue
gateway.SetColor(bulb, color);

This function will update your light bulb Color property aswell.

Change brightness

var brigthnessPercentage = 48; // Must be between [0; 100]
gateway.SetBrightness(bulb, brigthnessPercentage);

This function will update your light bulb Brightness property aswell.

Status

Keep in mind this library is still young and experimental so things might broke.
