Tray Emergency Hue

Background

Tray Emergency Hue is a hacky little app I threw together to make use of my Philips Hue lights for alerts. When you press a specific button, it makes the light blink red and pops up a Windows notification. It's not perfect, but it works for my setup. Use it at your own risk!

Environment Variables

To configure the application, you need to set up the following environment variables:

  • HUE_BRIDGE_IP: The IP address of your Philips Hue Bridge.
  • HUE_APP_KEY: The key for accessing the Philips Hue API.
  • HUE_LIGHT_ID: The ID of the Hue light you want to control.
  • HUE_ON_BUTTON_RID: The ID of the button that triggers the alert.
  • HUE_OFF_BUTTON_RID: The ID of the button that stops the alert.

Usage

  1. Clone the repository.
  2. Set up the environment variables as described above.
  3. Run the application.

Enjoy your new alert system!
