ESP-WIFI-NEOPIXEL-CONTROL

NodeMCU script to control NeoPixel ws2812b led strips.
Control colors, brightness and some effects with HTTP or MQTT calls.

Video of Script in Action

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9A8iUpCb1MI
Alexa control in the video is not part of this description.

Config

The http server gets initialzed on port 5001, this can be changed in the code.
You should change the following variables to your needs:
- wifi_ssid
- wifi_password
- mqtt_server
- mqtt_user
- mqtt_password
- OTA_hostname
- OTA_password
- PixelCount



MQTT VERSION

The MQTT version uses 3 topics:
home/ledcontroller/ -> you will receive status changes on this topic
home/ledcontroller/set -> control effects, brightness, animation, color on this topic
home/ledcontroller/log -> receive log messages and errors on this topic

Control LED effects

Send JSON commands to the MQTT SET topic to change the effect and brightness:

Set animation FUN:

{"animation":"fun"}

Possible values: off, beam, fun, cylon, pulse, fire, aqua

Set brightness (0-100):

{"brightness":20}

Set static color with predefined color values:

{"animation":"colorred"}
{"animation":"colorblue"}
{"animation":"colorgreen"}
{"animation":"colorwhite"}
{"animation":"colorblack"}

Set static color with RGB values:

{"animation":"color","color":{"r":200,"g":200,"b":10}}

Set all at once:

{"animation":"color","brightness":34,"color":{"r":200,"g":200,"b":10}}

Note: color values only get considered when animation=color is selected

Status of LED controller

During startup and in case an effect changes the controller sends a status message to the MQTT topic. The status in a JSON message and looks like the following. The "uptime" value are the milliseconds since the controller was started, "uptimeH" are the hours since it was started. The "brightness" value is the percent value between 0 and 100, brightnessraw is the actual set value between 0 and 255 
{
  "uptime":143248,
  "uptimeH":0,
  "animation":"fun",
  "brightness":34,
  "brightnessraw":86,
  "color":{
    "r":9,
    "g":49,
    "b":9
  }
}

SITEMAP

RULES

import java.awt.Color

rule "LED controller Brightness"
when
Item Light_L_Digiledstrip_Bright received command
then
logInfo( "FILE", "RULE: LED controller Brightness triggered")
publish("openhab2","home/ledcontroller/set","{brightness:" + Light_L_Digiledstrip_Bright.state + "}")
end


rule "LED controller Color"
when
Item Light_L_Digiledstrip_Color received command
then
logInfo( "FILE", "RULE: LED controller Color triggered")
var hsbValue = Light_L_Digiledstrip_Color.state as HSBType
var Color color = Color::getHSBColor(hsbValue.hue.floatValue / 360, hsbValue.saturation.floatValue / 100, hsbValue.brightness.floatValue / 100)


var String redValue   = String.format("%03d", ((color.red.floatValue / 2.55).intValue))
var String greenValue = String.format("%03d", ((color.green.floatValue / 2.55).intValue))
var String blueValue  = String.format("%03d", ((color.blue.floatValue / 2.55).intValue))
logInfo("FILE", "RED: "+ redValue + " GREEN: "+ greenValue +  " BLUE: "+ blueValue + "")


publish("openhab2","home/ledcontroller/set","{animation:color,color:{r:" + redValue + ",g:" + greenValue + ",b:" + blueValue + "}}")
end

3D Printed Case

See included STL file for a case for the Node MCU V2 (small version)

WIFI VERSION (legacy)

Start Effects

Effects were mainly taken from the standard NeoPixelBus example library and slightly changed 
http://[ip]:5001/control?animationid=fun
http://[ip]:5001/control?animationid=beam
http://[ip]:5001/control?animationid=fire
http://[ip]:5001/control?animationid=aqua
http://[ip]:5001/control?animationid=pulse
http://[ip]:5001/control?animationid=cylon

Set Predefined Colors

http://[ip]:5001/control?animationid=colorred
http://[ip]:5001/control?animationid=colorblue
http://[ip]:5001/control?animationid=colorgreen
http://[ip]:5001/control?animationid=colorblack
http://[ip]:5001/control?animationid=colorwhite

Set Custom Colors

You can add an RGB color code (9 digits) at the end of the color command to set a custom color 
http://[ip]:5001/control?animationid=color255255255

Set Brightness

Value is a percent value between 0 and 100) 
http://[ip]:5001/control?brightness=20

Turn LED Strip off

http://[ip]:5001/control?animationid=off

Get current status as JSON with

http://[ip]:5001/control?status

The returned message is the same as in the MQTT version
