[Feature] Make ha-chroma work with openrazer / Polychromatic on Linux

Open rcampbel3 opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

The idea

Linux users with Chroma devices depend on https://polychromatic.app/

Polychromatic is a frontend for OpenRazer that enables Razer devices to control lighting effects and more on GNU/Linux.

Specific device(s)?

Yes

Hello, @rcampbel3,

This integration relies on remote communication with the Chroma SDK via the local network. I didn't find whether OpenRazer has anything similar.

Unfortunately, if this is not possible then either Home Assistant should be on the same machine as Chroma devices, or an additional module should be programmed for OpenRazer to support network control.

Hi!

I tried ha-chroma with this: https://github.com/captin411/python-chroma-rest-server but it doesn't worked. Instead I got this error:

But I think this is what @rcampbel3 has searched for.

By the way: I had to change the port and the ip in the run.py

Could you take a look at this? @Vaskivskyi

Thank you very much.

Best Regards Nico
