    Here is what it shows for Type. I didn’t even think to check. But perhaps if you are filtering out group types, you could add a category for Rooms in the future? Otherwise it shows them as a LightGroup.

      Yeah, that confirms my assumption.

      My intention with the groups was just to show rooms, though - I just don’t have any of these multisource groups myself, so I never realized they were also being shown.

      I pushed an update to the module that filters out anything that doesn’t have a type of room - if you pull it, your list should shrink to a more manageable size :)

      If you’d like to have the ability to filter these groups - just in case you do want to show ones marked LightGroup - just post it as an issue on GitHub and I’ll build a real filtering functionality.

        Just wanted to announce that there’s a new version of this module out!

        I added functionality to support Paviro’s MMM-PIR-Sensor module meaning that this module can now be suspended & resumed based on movement detected through a PIR sensor (or whatever else you’re using for motion detection).

        Check out the release notes here:

          @michael5r I’m having a issue with the hue lights and MMM-Remote-Control, when viewing it from that app the hue module comes up with an error, it says
          Hue API Error: Error: read ECONNRESET
          it still changes when you turn on a bulb but would go back to the Error shortly after. When I use VNC to view it as long as I haven’t used mmm remotre control to view it, it works perfectly any ideas?

            @dazza120 That seems odd - let me check it out & see if I can replicate.

              Hi,

              I installed the module today with my Deconz gateway (not Hue).
              Everything works fine but I´m not able to use my defined groups.
              Lights are working great but the Hue bridge uses rooms and not groups, I think thats my problem.
              The Deconz gateway uses only lights and groups.

              The module MMM-Hue works great with the Deconz gateway but it´s basic. The new module looks much better.
              Is there a way to fix this problem?

              Regards,

              Christian

                Sure - open up the mmm-hue-lights.js file and go to line 670.

                You’ll see a comment saying for the groups, let's immediately filter out anything that doesn't have a type of 'Room' and a code block that looks like this:

                Object.keys(data.groups).forEach(function(key) {
                    var itemType = data.groups[key].type.toLowerCase();
                    if (itemType !== 'room') {
                        delete data.groups[key];
                     }
                });
                

                If you delete or uncomment that code block, it will no longer filter out anything that isn’t a room.

                    Hi,

                    is there a way to get lights or groups sorted by name?

                      @christian Not currently - I’m just displaying them in the order that the API spits them out.
