This component allows you to track and control various light bulbs.
|
|
|
|
It has [4 built-in light profiles](https://github.com/balloob/home-assistant/blob/master/homeassistant/components/light/light_profiles.csv) which you're able to extend by putting a `light_profiles.csv` file in your config dir.
|
|
|
|
It supports the following platforms:
|
|
|
|
* `hue` for Philips Hue
|
|
* `wink` for Wink
|
|
|
|
Preferred way to setup the Philips Hue platform is through the [the discovery component]({{site_root}}/components/discovery.html). For the Wink light platform enable [the wink component]({{site_root}}/components/wink.html).
|
|
|
|
If you want to enable the light component directly, add the following lines to your `configuration.yaml`:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
light:
|
|
platform: hue
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
<p class='note'>
|
|
The light component supports multiple entries in <code>configuration.yaml</code> by appending a sequential number to the section: <code>light 2:</code>, <code>light 3:</code> etc.
|
