fauxmo-jellyfish

A fauxmo plugin to control JellyFish Lighting.

Enables Amazon Echo (Alexa) control (on/off state and pattern for one or more zones) of JellyFish Lighting via an emulated Belkin WeMo switch and the JellyFish controller websocket.

Usage

Tested on a Raspberry Pi 4 Model B, Python 3.9.2, JellyFish controller version 030015, and fauxmo v0.6.0. Setting a static IP for your JellyFish controller and Raspberry Pi is strongly recommended.

1. Install Python: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -y install python3 python3-pip
2. Clone this repo: git clone https://github.com/Synse/fauxmo-jellyfish.git && cd fauxmo-jellyfish
3. Install Python dependencies: pip3 install -r requirements.txt
4. Update config.json with the plugin path, your JellyFish controller_ip, pattern (optional, default is current/last pattern), and zones (optional, default is all zones)
5. Start fauxmo: fauxmo -c config.json
6. Say Alexa discover devices and wait for discovery to finish

Turn lights on/off with "Alexa turn on JellyFish Lights" and "Alexa turn off JellyFish Lights".

Note: Device discovery may fail if "light" or "switch" doesn't appear in the device name; you can rename the device in the Alexa app after it's discovered.
