In-Development ED Hue Bridge

The Elite: Dangerous Immersion Toolkit (EDIT)

The Elite: Dangerous Immersion Toolkit (EDIT) is an application that integrates with the Elite: Dangerous commander log and provides a way to have external actions trigger on events from the log.

Once started it looks for the current game log, a list of event methods are provided that do actions based on the events from the log.

The alpha version is available here: https://github.com/ed-it/toolkit (Alpha means little documentation for now).

The eventual goal is to have a tool that reacts to events in Elite: Dangerous, and based on that triggers environmental effects such as the Hue lights (or other kits via adapters), plays sounds or triggers a webhook to another service (such as a peripheral, or a network service).

Currently it only has the Hue integration. The app starts as a server and has a configuration page to manage the app, hubs and lights. Here more settings will be added to make it very configurable.

At the moment events are hard coded scripts, but the plan is to make them scriptable through the manager with it's own extendable mini-language.

Here is a video of the first release in action:
