WiZ Light Control

A Python Flask web application for controlling WiZ smart lights and plugs via a user-friendly web interface.

Features

• 🌈 Color Control: Change light colors using an intuitive color picker
• 💡 Brightness Control: Adjust brightness with a slider
• 🔛 Power Control: Turn lights on/off with simple buttons
• 🌐 Web Interface: Control your lights from any device with a web browser
• 📱 Responsive Design: Works on desktop, tablet, and mobile devices
• 🎨 Beautiful UI: Modern Bootstrap-based interface with gradient background
• 📋 System Tray Integration: Run the app in the background with system tray support

Prerequisites

• Python 3.6 or higher
• WiZ smart lights/plugs connected to your local network
• Knowledge of your WiZ device's IP address

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/Smugcurve13/wiz-control-by-SC13.git
   cd wiz-control-by-SC13

2. Install dependencies:

   pip install -r requirements.txt

3. Configure your device IP: Open app.py and update the BULB_IP variable with your WiZ device's IP address:

   BULB_IP = "192.168.1.18"  # Replace with your device's IP

Usage

Running the Application

1. Start the Flask server:

   python app.py

2. Access the web interface: Open your browser and navigate to http://localhost:5000

3. Control your lights:

   • Use the color picker to change light colors
   • Adjust brightness with the slider
   • Turn lights on/off with the power buttons

System Tray Mode

The application includes system tray functionality for running in the background:

python sysicon.py

This will minimize the app to your system tray, allowing you to access controls without keeping a browser window open.

Dependencies

• Flask: Web framework for the application
• requests: HTTP library for communicating with WiZ devices
• pystray: System tray integration
• Pillow: Image processing for system tray icon
• plyer: Cross-platform notification system
• beautifulsoup4: HTML parsing utilities

API Endpoints

The application provides REST API endpoints for controlling lights:

• GET /: Main web interface
• POST /control: Send commands to WiZ devices
• Additional endpoints for specific light functions

Configuration

Finding Your WiZ Device IP

1. Use your router's admin panel to find connected devices
2. Use network scanning tools like nmap:

   nmap -sn 192.168.1.0/24

3. Check the WiZ mobile app device settings

Port Configuration

The default WiZ port 38899 is configured in the application. This is the standard port for WiZ device communication and typically doesn't need to be changed.

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

1. Device not responding:

   • Verify the IP address is correct
   • Ensure the device is on the same network
   • Check that the WiZ device is powered on

2. Web interface not loading:

   • Ensure port 5000 is not blocked by firewall
   • Try accessing via 127.0.0.1:5000 instead of localhost

3. Dependencies issues:

   • Make sure all packages from requirements.txt are installed
   • Consider using a virtual environment
