Implements feature request: https://community.gladysassistant.com/t/ajout-de-colortemperature-et-xy-dans-integration-matter-pour-les-ampoules/10363

Description

Gladys' Matter integration only handled the Hue/Saturation mode of the ColorControl cluster. Bulbs that report their color through the XY (CIE 1931) mode and/or expose a color temperature — for example the IKEA KAJPLATS bulb paired through the IKEA DIRIGERA hub — only showed ON/OFF and brightness in Gladys, while the very same bulb exposes color and color temperature when paired over Zigbee2mqtt. This PR adds support for those two remaining modes of the cluster.

What changed (server/services/matter)

  • Device discovery (utils/convertToGladysDevice.js)
    • a light/color feature is now created when the cluster featureMap advertises either hueSaturation or xy (previously only hueSaturation)
    • a light/temperature feature is created when the cluster advertises colorTemperature, using the ColorTempPhysicalMinMireds / ColorTempPhysicalMaxMireds range reported by the bulb, with a fallback to the usual 153500 range when the bulb does not expose it or advertises an inconsistent range
    • a Hue/Saturation-only bulb is strictly unchanged, and a bulb advertising no color mode at all still gets no color feature
  • Reading state (lib/matter.readInitialDeviceStates.js, lib/matter.listenToStateChange.js)
    • CurrentX / CurrentY are read and subscribed to when the bulb only supports the XY mode (Hue/Saturation keeps priority when both are supported)
    • ColorTemperatureMireds is read and subscribed to when the color temperature mode is supported
  • Sending commands (lib/matter.setValue.js)
    • MoveToColor is sent for XY-only bulbs, MoveToHueAndSaturation is still used when Hue/Saturation is supported
    • MoveToColorTemperature is sent for the color temperature feature

Units and conversions

No new device feature category or type was introduced — this reuses the existing light/color and light/temperature types already used by Zigbee2mqtt, Philips Hue and Tasmota.

  • Color temperature: Gladys stores it in mireds, which is exactly the unit used by Matter, so no numeric conversion is needed — only range handling and validation (utils/colorControlMatterMapping.js).
  • Color: Matter stores CurrentX/CurrentY as uint16 equal to the CIE xy chromaticity × 65536. xyToInt() already existed in server/utils/colors.js; this PR adds its reverse, intToXy(), so the conversion works in both directions (reading state and sending a command). Both directions are unit-tested, including a round-trip test.

Checklist

  • Tests pass: new unit tests were added for every changed server file, mirroring the source structure (server/test/services/matter/..., server/test/utils/colors.test.js). A targeted nyc run reports 100% line coverage and no uncovered branch on the lines changed by this PR. The full npm test suite was run: the only failures are pre-existing environment failures on this machine (gateway backup tests requiring the sqlite3 CLI, which is not installed), verified to fail identically on master.
  • Linter and prettier pass on the server (npm run prettier, npm run prettier-check, npm run eslint — 0 errors)
  • No undocumented breaking change — the ColorControl line of server/services/matter/README.md was updated
  • Cypress was not run (no front-end change: the frontend already renders the light/color and light/temperature feature types, so no new i18n key or component was needed)

Notes for reviewers

This pull request was opened by an automated Claude Code run and needs human review before merging.

It could not be tested against real hardware — no Matter device was available in this environment. Everything is covered by unit tests with mocked Matter nodes following the existing patterns in server/test/services/matter/. Testing on a real bulb that uses the XY and/or ColorTemperature modes (such as the IKEA KAJPLATS behind a DIRIGERA hub) would be very valuable before merging, in particular:

  • that the color rendered by the bulb matches the color picked in Gladys (the XY conversion uses the Wide RGB D65 matrices, the same family of conversion already used by xyToInt for Philips Hue and Zigbee2mqtt)
  • that the mireds range advertised by the bulb produces a usable slider range in the UI

…ol cluster

Gladys' Matter integration only handled the Hue/Saturation mode of the
ColorControl cluster. Bulbs that report their color through the XY (CIE 1931)
mode and/or expose a color temperature (for example the IKEA KAJPLATS bulb
paired through the IKEA DIRIGERA hub) only exposed ON/OFF and brightness in
Gladys, while the same bulb exposes color and color temperature over
Zigbee2mqtt.

- Expose a light/color feature when the cluster advertises either the
  hueSaturation or the xy feature in its featureMap
- Expose a light/temperature feature (in mireds, the unit already used by
  Gladys for Zigbee2mqtt and Philips Hue) when the cluster advertises the
  colorTemperature feature, using the physical mireds range reported by the
  bulb with a fallback to 153-500
- Read the initial state and subscribe to CurrentX/CurrentY and
  ColorTemperatureMireds attribute changes
- Send MoveToColor and MoveToColorTemperature commands
- Add intToXy() in server/utils/colors.js, the reverse conversion of the
  existing xyToInt()

Bulbs that only support Hue/Saturation are unchanged.

Stale comment

Approving. This is a well-scoped Matter mapping onto existing Gladys types, with Hue/Saturation-only bulbs left unchanged.

Taxonomy: no new DEVICE_FEATURE_CATEGORIES / DEVICE_FEATURE_TYPES. Color and color temperature reuse light/color and light/temperature (same contract as Zigbee2mqtt, Philips Hue, Tasmota, MQTT). That matches Gladys’ brand-agnostic model; nothing here needs a philosophy pass.

What looks solid

  • Discovery follows the ColorControl featureMap (HS or XY → color; CT → temperature) with physical mireds bounds and the usual 153–500 fallback when the range is missing or inverted.
  • Commands use MoveToHueAndSaturation vs MoveToColor (colorX/colorY match @matter/types 0.17) and MoveToColorTemperature in mireds, with executeIfOff then onOff.on().
  • intToXy is the inverse of the existing xyToInt Wide-RGB matrix (round-trip tests + A×B = I). Gladys already stores CT in mireds, so no unit conversion is needed.
  • HS stays preferred when both HS and XY are advertised, which keeps current HS bulbs on the path they already use.
  • Hue/Sat-only bulbs are strictly unchanged. Server lint/tests are green in CI. The front already renders both feature types.

Already-paired Matter bulbs will show as changed on the Matter devices page (compareDevices keys on feature length / external_id), so users can re-save to pick up the new features — unlike #2892’s category-only remaps, this is visible.

Nits (not merge blockers) — inline:

  1. XY and CT listeners do not skip non-finite values the way the initial-read path does; a throw in emitXyColorState is also an unhandled rejection (same as existing HS).
  2. Color setValue still dereferences colorControl.supportedFeatures without the cluster null-check added on the temperature path.

Hardware residual: no Matter bulb in this environment. Confirming on a DIRIGERA/KAJPLATS (or similar XY+CT lamp) that the featureMap is XY rather than a false HS bit, and that the picker color matches the bulb, would still be valuable after merge.

…Value path

Address review feedback on the ColorControl XY / color temperature support:

- the XY listener now wraps its attribute reads in a try/catch and ignores
  non-finite coordinates, so a bulb reporting no XY while in color temperature
  mode no longer emits a black color nor an unhandled rejection
- the ColorTemperatureMireds listener ignores non-numeric reports, like the
  initial-read path already does, instead of wiping the saved state
- setValue checks the presence of the ColorControl cluster before reading its
  supported features, so a missing cluster throws the same explicit error as
  the color temperature branch

Re-review of c1eb438. Approving again. The follow-up addresses the three nits from the previous pass, and this remains a well-scoped Matter mapping onto existing Gladys types.

Follow-up (c1eb438)

  • XY listener: try/catch around the attribute reads, plus Number.isFinite on both coordinates, so a bulb in color-temperature mode no longer flashes black or leaves an unhandled rejection.
  • Color-temperature listener: non-finite reports are ignored, matching emitState on the initial-read path.
  • Color setValue: missing ColorControl cluster now throws the same explicit error as the temperature branch, instead of a TypeError.
  • Unit tests cover the rejected XY read, non-numeric XY/CT reports, and a color command without the cluster.

Taxonomy: still no new DEVICE_FEATURE_CATEGORIES / DEVICE_FEATURE_TYPES. Color and color temperature reuse light/color and light/temperature (same contract as Zigbee2mqtt, Philips Hue, Tasmota, MQTT). Hue/Saturation-only bulbs stay on the path they already used. Nothing here needs a philosophy pass.

CI is green (front test/build, server lint/test, Cypress, Docker, codecov patch + project).

Residuals (not merge blockers)

  • The initial-read XY path still gates on !== undefined rather than Number.isFinite, so a null coordinate that does not throw would still convert to color 0. The live listener is now the stricter of the two.
  • listenToStateChange / readInitialDeviceStates still read colorControl.supportedFeatures.hueSaturation without || {} (discovery and setValue were hardened). matter.js normally always provides an object.
  • Already-paired bulbs show as changed on the Matter devices page (compareDevices keys on feature length / external_id) and need a re-save to pick up the new features.
  • No Matter bulb in this environment — confirming on a DIRIGERA/KAJPLATS (or similar XY+CT lamp) that the featureMap is XY rather than a false HS bit, and that the picker color matches the bulb, would still be valuable after merge.
