Set-PhillipsHue

Windows PowerShell cmdlet to set the hue, brightness, saturation, effect, and power state of Phillips Hue light bulbs.

I was able to implement this in C# in order to convert RGB values into XY values.

Script assumes you've set a PHILIPS_HUE_URI environment variable to:

http://<Hue Bridge Uri or IP Address>/api/<Philips Hue API Key>/lights

Quick Start

After you have set your PHILIPS_HUE_URI environment variable you can use Windows PowerShell (not PowerShell Core) to make this script available to you by running the following commands.

Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process -Force;
[System.Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [System.Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol -bor 3072;

Example

Let's say you have a connected light named Hue Blow. It's already turned on, but you want to change the color to blue, set the saturation to 254, and set the brightness to 254. To accomplish that, you would run the following command.

Set-PhilipsHue -LightName 'Hue Blow' -Color blue -Brightness 254 -Saturation 254
