      @michael5r You have just made my day. After messing about for the best part of a day trying to get the module working, your post has made this module spring to life! I installed via Magic Mirror Package Manager and the folder name had upper and lower case naming. Im going to get a beer now!! lol…

        Hey guys,

        first off, great module @michael5r, thanks a lot. Unfortunately I have issues getting it to work as soon as I use the displayFilter attribute. Using the default works perfectly fine and shows all my lights. As soon as I only have one specific light in the displayFilter-array, I can only see “Loading…” on my mirror. Config looks fine (below) and logs are identical with default and specified.

        Side Note: The light I am calling is “Kugel” which is not an original Hue but Ikea Tradfri. Additionally I have other lights called “Kugel 30er” “Kugel 40er” and “Kugel 60er”. Could this be the source of failure?

        Works:
        hue_lights_all.jpg

        Doesn’t work:
        hue_lights_kugel.jpg

        Thanks for help in advance.

          I set this up and everything was working wonderfully. I shut down my pi and installed it into my frame with the same screen and now this module is not working but nothing has changed. It loads but I cannot see the module on my MM screen

            Hello,

            I am currently running in some problems setting up this module.
            I accidently wiped my running mm2 installation and had to start from scratch.
            Before that it was running just fine with this module.

            If it is relevant I first pulled the module inside the “MagicMirror” folder and ran “npm run install” there.
            I then removed it again, navigated to the modules and pulled it there via git.

            I checked my hue developper account and my user is working
            I also checked the IP of my bridge because this had changed before when we had an power outage.
            I can ping the IP from my raspi.

            I already removed it from the modules folder and pulled it again via git.

            My mirror is up and running.
            As soon as I put the mmm-hue-lights module settings in the config I just get a black screen. The console gives me the following information and error messages:

            my config of the module currently looks like this (I tried working without the additional settings) at the moment only the obligatory ones IP and user:

            		{
            		module: "mmm-hue-lights",
            		position: "top_left", // pick whichever position you want
            		config: {
            			bridgeIp: "xxxxxx",
            			user: "xxxx",
            			//updateInterval: 1000,
            			//initialLoadDelay: 0,
            			//displayType: "grid",
            		////	displayFilter: ["all"],
            			//minimalGrid: true,
            			//displayMode: "lights",
            			
            			 ////... and whatever else configuration options you want to use
            			}
            		},

              {
                  			module: "mmm-hue-lights",
                  			position: "top_right",
                  			config: {
                      		bridgeIp: "XXXXXXXXXXX",
                      		user: "XXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
                  			updateInterval: "1000",
              			hideOff: "false",
              			displayMode: "groups",
              			displayType: "list",
              			minimalList: "true",
              			coloredList: "true",
              			hideFilter: ["home-away"],
              			alignment: "right",
              		        }
              		},
              

              Try this which is working on mine, download the Module again to see if that is the issue copy and past mine in then change it to what you want

                  @sdetweil Thank you.

                  I totally did NOT see the missing module ‘request’ right at the Beginning.
                  Now the mirror starts… the module is stuck on loading but I will figure it out ;D
