Input Echo Hub...

[nitrohaiza]

Hi there,

I have a question. How can I control a device from the outside? I set process and output at the hub. That means I would send my request at the entrance to the hub. Is that correct?

Thanks a lot.

Can anyone tell me, what i must write?

Sorry my language is German. Not so easy for me.

I am having the same issue. Can´t get the Hub recognize the input message.
"Process Input" setting is set to "process"
Here is my try of the function in front of the hub (same setup as yours):

@nitrohaiza / @flowerbob, did you manage to resolve it?

Yes
But for my purpose I still need the rgb value input for the hub so right now only brightness and state are fed into the hub.
I take the message coming from home assistant (current state node) and feed it trough a function
into the hub.

function code:

var bri =msg.data.attributes.brightness;
var name =msg.data.attributes.friendly_name;
var state = msg.data.state;
var onstate;
if (state == "on") {
   onstate= true;
} else {
   onstate= false;
}
var Msg = {
    "nodename": name,
    "bri" : bri,
    "on" : onstate,
}
var newMsg = { payload: Msg };
return newMsg;
}

RGB input is implemented as part of #15, but it is still not released, so it has to be available in the next version.

RGB input support has been released in v0.1.10
