Setting RGB bulb colours?

[davidchatting]

Hi - I've had quite a lot of success using ikea-tradfri with Node-Red - thanks!

One thing I would like to do is to set the RGB values on the bulbs and perhaps the transition rate - what would it take to add that? With some pointers I could work on it myself.

Cheers,
David

As far as I am aware, the Trådfri bulbs only take three colours. If there is now a full-colour version, I haven't seen it yet.

The colours I use are:

    colours = {
      white: 'f5faf6',
      warm: 'f1e0b5',
      glow: 'efd275'
    };

The current colour of a bulb may be retrieved from the bulb.colour property and set via the bulb.setColour() method. Is this what you meant or is there an RGB bulb that I've missed?

As far as setting the transition time, I'll leave this open and look at it in the near future.

Hi - yes, I have one of these > https://www.ikea.com/gb/en/p/tradfri-led-bulb-e27-600-lumen-wireless-dimmable-colour-and-white-spectrum-opal-white-00408612/

It's not full RGB, but has a larger palette than the previous bulbs.

OK. I hadn't noticed that they were multi-coloured. I will buy one next week and play with it.
