I was not satisfied with the features and the quality of the Hue plugin so I created this ALTHue plugin. in the same vein as ALTUI, this is the Alternate Edition of the Hue Plugin.
First version is 0.1 and It supports pairing with the hub, creating Hue lamps ( including RGB ) and Hue Motion sensors and make them all appear as Vera devices , ready for your scenes. these are true Vera devices , so using same device types , same device variables and same device Upnp actions.
Install and Setup instructions can be found here : ALTHue/ALTHue Philips Hue plugin.pdf at master · amg0/ALTHue · GitHub

Plugin ID on MCV store is : 9066
Easy install
choose one of the methods below
[ul][li]published in the Vera Store [url=http://apps.mios.com/plugin.php?id=9066]MiOS Apps
[li]published in ALTUI Alt App Store[/li]
[li]direct install by opening your browser on http://:3480/data_request?id=action&serviceId=urn:micasaverde-com:serviceId:HomeAutomationGateway1&action=CreatePlugin&PluginNum=9066&Version=36981 and ignore any error message, wait for luup reload, refresh browser[/li][/ul]
Note: .svg files from Icons folder must be uploaded on:
UI7 => /www/cmh/skins/default/img/devices/device_states
UI5 => /www/cmh/skins/default/icons
on UI5 : you need to install dkjson.lua in /usr/lib/lua/ on your vera manually ( winscp )
Additional step for UI5
manually upload files from ALTHue/UI5 at master · amg0/ALTHue · GitHub in your plugin folders.
These are device files ( xml json ) that must override the one installed by the plugin and the store. the reason is that UI5 does not support some color selection features we use in it.
UI5 is a nice to have, it is not really supported any more ( untested )
Supported devices ( not limited to, but seen working )
