Make Philips Hue take the colour of the Eurovision country that's currently on

Eurovision Hue controller

Scrapes the live blog, updates your Hue light colours according to the country most recently mentioned in that live blog.

Requires a modern Ruby. Install RVM: https://rvm.io/rvm/install and then rvm use 3.0.1 or something.

Install dependencies with Bundler

bundle

If you have issues installing Nokogiri at this point, follow the instructions at http://www.nokogiri.org/tutorials/installing_nokogiri.html#mac_os_x and try again.

You will also need to install ImageMagick: https://www.imagemagick.org/script/binary-releases.php. (If you get Terrapin::CommandNotFoundError, ths is probably why).

If you haven't yet, you'll need to register with the Hue bridge (only first time):

bundle exec lights discover -s
bundle exec lights register

Alternatively, if the first fails to discover your bridge, and you know the IP address, bundle exec lights config -i <IP ADDRESS>.

Now start the script:

bundle exec ruby eurovisionhue.rb

Docker

This can be built/run using docker and the included Dockerfile.

Build with:

docker build -t eurovisionhue .

Run initial config:

echo "{}" > ~/.lightsconfig
docker run --rm -it -v ~/.lightsconfig:/app/.lightsconfig eurovisionhue bundle exec lights discover -s
docker run --rm -it -v ~/.lightsconfig:/app/.lightsconfig eurovisionhue bundle exec lights register

Run with:

docker run --rm -it -v ~/.lightsconfig:/app/.lightsconfig eurovisionhue

Last.FM mode

deprecated, this needs rework

This also supports polling Last.fm and using your most recent track's album art as the colours to use. You need to have a last.fm API key:

LASTFM_USER=lastfm-user LASTFM_API_KEY=012344556 bundle exec ruby lastfmhue.rb
