issues while developing for PHILIPS HUE

I am making an application using meethue api for apple.

I don't have any device (bridge) to check the output. How can I proceed my development using my simulator.

Is their any way from which I can test or know how my app is working without having bridge.

Solution

  • You can make use of a hue emulator.

    For example, the Hue-emulator by SteveyO is a simple .jar file which can be run using the command:

    java -jar HueEmulator-v0.2.jar

    After this, the following request can be used to check whether the emulator is running:

    http://localhost:8000/api/newdeveloper

    The full bridge config should be returned.
