Random colour?

[fluffypony]

Is it possible to set a light / group to a random colour? I currently use a python script for this, and I'd like to move the functionality to HS3 + JowiHue. My python script just sets the hue for the group to a random number between 0 and 65535, so doesn't have to be fancier than that

Fluffypony,

I am just jumping in shortly so I do not have time to work out a real sample. But check the docs of the JowiHue plugin.It should be in the docs directory at your homeseer installation. You will find a PDF wit all possibilities of the plugin, including scripting (vb.net scripting).
This might put you on track?

Eventually I can get you a sample to randomize the hue setting later.

Thanks

Wim

I really should try reading the documentation more often Thanks for pointing me in that direction, I'll take a look at it later today!

For anyone that comes across this in future, this is the script I wrote to handle this:

Sub Main(ByVal Parm As Object)
Dim staticRandomGenerator As New System.Random

Dim i As Integer = staticRandomGenerator.Next(0, 65535)

If hs.PluginFunction("JowiHue", "", "SetLightsHueSat", {True, "GROUP NAME", Nothing, i, Nothing, 100}) Then
	hs.WriteLog("HueScript", "GROUP colour successfully changed")
Else
	hs.WriteLog("HueScript", "GROUP colour failed to change, check log for details")
End If

End Sub
