# music-light
`luz-musica.py` changes a Home Assistant light to match the active media artwork.
## Requirements
- `python3`
- `python3-venv`
- `playerctl`
- Python packages from `requirements.txt`
On Ubuntu/Debian:
```bash
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y python3 python3-venv playerctl
```
## Setup
Create a virtual environment and install dependencies:
```bash
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
python -m pip install -U pip
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
## Configuration
Edit the constants at the top of `luz-musica.py`:
- `HA_URL`
- `HA_TOKEN`
- `LIGHT_ENTITY`
You can also tune:
- `BRIGHTNESS_PCT`
- `SATURATION_BOOST`
- `MIN_SATURATION`
- `MIN_VALUE`
- `REQUEST_TIMEOUT`
## Run
```bash
source .venv/bin/activate
python luz-musica.py
```
Or use the Makefile:
```bash
make run
```
## Troubleshooting
- If nothing is playing, or `playerctl` cannot read metadata, the loop sleeps and retries.
- If `mpris:artUrl` is missing, the script logs it and waits for the next track change.
- If Home Assistant is unreachable or returns an error, the script logs the exception and retries.
