measure.py Measure Type and Light selection variables

[cmgrayb]

Update: I have figured out via config.py that the correct test type key is SELECTED_DEVICE_TYPE and have updated the value to the description value of Light Bulb(s) which is now bypassing the test type question. The question is still open for LIGHT_ENTITY_ID which does not seem to work using the HA entity ID or the display name supplied by the choice menu.

---

Second Update: I have determined that LIGHT_ENTITY_ID only works when using the hass controller. The correct parameter for hue controller is LIGHT with a syntax of LIGHT=light:[int] where [int] is the Hue API index for that light http://{{bridge_ip}}/api/{{username}}/lights (see documentation). Barring any better advice being posted here, I will set up an API query for the light entity from the Hue hub to determine its index and pass the value as an environment variable in my pipelines/scripts or just switch to hass controller.

---

Looking for advice. I am setting up a test bench to submit a number of missing model numbers from Hue and possibly Govee. I have been able to bypass most of the questionnaire using the .env file and --env statements, making it nearly non-interactive. The two questions I still have to answer are Measurement Type and which light to measure. I have specified both using the variable names found in measure.py but I'm still getting prompted. Attached is my .env file for reference. Is there a way to bypass these two questions? Have I missed configuration options that it needs?

My docker command in PowerShell is: docker run --rm --name=measure --env-file=.env --env SELECTED_MEASURE_TYPE=LIGHT --env COLOR_MODE=hs -v "$pwd/export:/app/export" -v "$pwd/.persistent:/app/.persistent" -it bramgerritsen/powercalc-measure:latest

SELECTED_DEVICE_TYPE is the correct key for selecting the measurement mode
LIGHT_ENTITY_ID is only for hass light controller mode, not hue
LIGHT=light:[int] is the correct key/value for hue light controller mode, where [int] is the index number of the light in the Hue Bridge API
