Control Philips Hue using VVVV

[Marko_Stj]

Hello everybody,

Currently I’m planing to control a few Philips Hue Bulbs using VVVV.
I am still in the learning process of developing and stumbled about the following forum entry:

HTTP Post doesn't have BODY pin? (help with Philips Hue)

ok next attempt :) seems as if the content-length property doesn’t need to be set - so modified that part that it can deal with both cases. oh and open up a tty node if your requests fail. should give you a little more info what’s going on. i’ve also added a new enum to the node “Method”, where you can select whether it’s a GET/POST/etc. request method. so be careful to set that one to POST in your case. HttpPostRaw_1.zip (3.4 kB)

Unfortunately I cannot get the Patch postet there up and running.
Does anybody have Philips Hue implemented in their Project and can provide me a Patch, which offers an PUT option to the Hue API.

My goal is to control the bulbs using an Color Box in the end.

Thank you!

I’d look for a c# library and import it, there are probably nuget packages ready to install.
Sounds more easy than patching low level http requests…
