esp32_lamp
esp32_lamp lets you toggle Philips Hue lights with a pushbutton and an ESP32 microcontroller.
It works on a simple model: you specify a room and a scene. When you press the button, if any lights in that room are on, they all get turned off; if none of them are on, they get set to the specified scene.
Getting Started
You'll need to create a file called secret.h with a few #define statements.
Define all of these as string literals:
#define SSID "Your Wi-Fi SSID"
#define PWD "Your Wi-Fi password"
#define BRIDGE "IP address or hostname of your Hue bridge"
#define API_USERNAME "Username for Hue API"
#define ROOM "ID of the room to control"
#define SCENE "ID of the scene to set lights to"esp32_lamp has these dependencies:

- https://github.com/arduino-libraries/ArduinoHttpClient

In esp32_lamp.ino, adjust INPUT_PIN and LED_PIN for your ESP32 board.
INPUT_PIN must support INPUT_PULLUP mode.
Attach a normally-open pushbutton between INPUT_PIN and ground on your ESP32 board. Plug in the board and program it. When the LED stops blinking, it's connected. Push the button to toggle the state of the lights in the specified room.
