@tonimahoni As I don’t own TRÅDFRI yet I can’t tell you much about the light quality. Certainly, it is possible to write a plugin for TRÅDFRI. The TRÅDFRI gateway will be required for this which costs about 30 Euros.
Note, there are also some alternatives to TRÅDFRI like “Milight” which is already supported by pimatic. A set of 4 RGBW bulbs, a remote, and the wifi gatway is available at Amazon for about 70 Euros. You can get it cheaper if you order it from china via bangood or aliexpress, but this has long delivery times and you need to be careful with tax and customs regulations.

I don’t think hue / lightify will work with TRÅDFRI . See also https://developers.meethue.com/content/philips-hue-and-ikea-trådfri

The Ikea bridge can control hue lights. There is a python library to control the Ikea bridge.
https://github.com/ggravlingen/pytradfri Maybe someone can Translate it / look how it works and make a nodejs library.
In my opinion the Ikea Tradfri has great potential, due to the fact that the Gateway also Control Hue-Bulbs. I think it’s time to develop a new Plugin.
But I’m out, cause no programming skills!
looks like this is the first javascript attempt: https://github.com/Hypfer/node-tradfri

Did you try it? It is just what the guy posted on the aforementioned thread 24 hours ago.

This library appears to be in the early stages, the underlying coap-dtls implementation in particular. I am not sure why people start reinventing the weel over and over given that there are coap and dtls implementations out there.

i wrote a crappy python implementation based on a github ikea tradfri implementation. Its a server and an observer. The server can switch bulbs (simple curl requests) and the observer checks for external (remote/app) changes and pushes them to pimatic via api.
Currently working with 11 bulbs and 2 Groups. Can set Mood(for groups), Color, brightness, state and checks reachability.
it would be very fine if someone writes a native pimatic implementation. but this works so far…
@Felix-Haverkamp
See here … I’m working on it
Pimatic plugin tradfri
@kosta GREAT!
please implement some more features and i will test it hardcore, have enought bulb to make a performance test. in my own implementation i had problems with to many requests.
Yeah. Nice to hear. I have just two bulbs now for one week.
I am working with full speed on new features.
[Ikea-Lampen sollen in Hue integriert werden
Laut der Internetseite 9to5Mac.com soll das Update die Trådfri-Lampen auch in das Philips-Hue-Lampensystem integrieren. Die Ikea-Lampen sollen nach der Aktualisierung in der Hue-App sichtbar sein.](https://www.golem.de/news/smarte-lampen-ikeas-tradfri-wird-kompatibel-mit-echo-home-und-homekit-1708-129428.html)
But it looks like you need the gateway for the firmware update unfortunately

honestly, my first thought was “there must be hitch somewhere” - that’s just me

@mwittig it is not only you. But it is written that the bulbs delivered from beginning of Autumn should have the new firmware on it. But how you can decide/see which is new which is old…
It is time for a new service in the forum updating the bulbs
Bugfixing Ikea withdrawed the update and returned to their desks
Hue Integration should be possible.

Good News I tested it today…I ordered from eBay a tradfri package for omly a third of the original price and updated to the newest firmware and what should I say… everything is fine and great…it works with hue bridge the Ikea bulbs
P.S.: to get the connection to the hue bridge the distance must be very very close 1cm or so…
