Scintillon
Scintillon is a Philips Hue compatible smart home app that lets you control your Hue lighting using your Sailfish OS phone.
Scintillon is a QT app for use with Sailfish OS.
Summary
If you have a Philips Hue Hub and some lights attached you can use Scintillon to control them. Your phone has to be connected to the same local network as the Hue Hub, the app doesn't currently support connection via the Philips cloud.
As well as controlling the colour and brightness of individual lights it will also allow you to create and apply groups and scenes, configure sensors and switches, set alarms and countdown timers to trigger changes to your lights, and add new lights to your network.
This is a preliminary beta release, so it's likely to be buggy and hasn't been vigorouslly tested. Hopefully that'll change and the bugs will be ironed out, along with new features being added, over the coming months.
Build from source
The source is available from GitHub. If you want to build the application from source, you'll need the Sailfish SDK installed.
Once you've cloned the repository locally, there are a couple more steps to follow.
- Edit the
apps/apps.pro
file to replace theSUBDIRS += qtcontrols2
line withSUBDIRS += sailfish
- Execute the
generate.sh
script from the directory it's contained in to create the graphics needed in various resolutions.
You can then load the shine.pro
project file into the Sailfish SDK and build it as normal.
