Twitch to Hue

An application to visualise follows and hosts with a Phillips Hue controller and bulb, via Streamlabs.

WARNING This is very rough and ready, it's not user friendly at this point at all.

Building

Build it with maven.

mvn package

Output will be in target/, move it to where ever.

Configuring

Create a file in same directory as the jar called twitchtohue.properties.

hue.address=IP-ADDRESS
hue.token=HUE_TOKEN
hue.lightId=18
hue.onTime=6000
http.port=22222

IP Address

Change the IP-ADDRESS to that of your Hue controllers address, exercise for the reader to identify that, it's too complicated to have written here.

Hue Token

To generate a HUE_TOKEN, connect to http://IP-ADDRESS/debug/clip.html.

In the URL box, replace the content with just /api.

In the Message Body, put {"devicetype":"twitchtohue"}.

Press the Button on your Hue controller, then click POST.

In the response you should see a "username": "HUE_TOKEN"", grab the token without the ".

Light ID

In CLIP, change the URL to /api/HUE_TOKEN/lights (replacing the HUE_TOKEN with the one you just found out).

Clear the Message Body, and click GET.

Assuming you have named your bulbs (what kind of a nerd are you after all?), find the name of the bulb you want, then refer to it's ID number which will be at the start of that bulbs section.

Streamlabs

Go to your alert box in the dashboard, click the Follows section, find Enable Custom HTML/CSS, scroll to the bottom of the code and insert:

<img src="http://localhost:22222/follow/{name}" style="visibility: hidden" />

Go the same for Hosting, use this HTML:

<img src="http://localhost:22222/host/{name}" style="visibility: hidden" />

Running

Start twitchtohue before you stream with:

java -jar twitchtohue-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar

Enjoy.
