MMM Hue Lights is not updated

[sdetweil]

@JoeFranz I always seem to have to push the button on my hue bridge whenever i add a new app to talk to those lights

[JoeFranz]

@sdetweil Ok, I don’t really understand. Does that mean the module no longer works with the new MM version?
It’s the mmm-hue-lights module, not Mitch’s MMM-Hue.
Then I’ll try that :-)

[sdetweil]

@JoeFranz I don’t know. never tried it.

@JoeFranz Does your bridge have the same IP address? It could be that the IP for the bridge has changed. I added a fixed IP for my bridge to the router so that it never changes.

[JoeFranz]

@mumblebaj
Yes, the bridge still has the same address. It works for about 1-2 hours after starting, but then the display no longer updates :-(

@JoeFranz You could try my MMM-PhilipsHue module.

Unfortunately I am not sure what the issue is with the one you are using. Are you seeing any errors for the module popup anywhere?

[JoeFranz]

@mumblebaj
No errors are displayed :-(

[JoeFranz]

@mumblebaj How can I display errors?

[mumblebaj]

@JoeFranz Depends on how you start your mirror. If you use npm start then you can check in the console window. If you pm2 then you can do pm2 logs and check the logs for any errors. You can also check the Developers Window, press Ctrl + shift + i keys together and check the console tab. You can filter by typing the module name in the filter box and check if there are any errors shown there. Or as suggested, you could give my module a try and see if that works for you.

@mumblebaj No errors are shown anywhere :-(
