It is possible to customize bulb colors by altering the source code. If you are comfortable in a text editor, the bulb color settings for each power zone are set in public/js/constants.js
An easy way to determine the proper color value is to load the configuration settings for your lights by visiting https://bridgeipaddress/api/bridgeusername/lights
. From there you will see all of the lights associated with your bridge. You can pull up an individual light by appending the light's number on the end (example: https://bridgeipaddress/api/bridgeusername/lights/5
). As you change the hue values using the Philips Hue app, refresh the page. The value that you can use in constants.js
can be found under "hue"
.
