Home Assistant Integration uses depreciated flags

[matthew-hz]

Describe the bug

Home Assistant Integration uses depreciated flags.

Deprecated flags [rgb, color_temp] used in MQTT JSON light config for handling color mode, please use supported_color_modes instead. Got: {'device_class': 'light', 'schema': 'json', 'name': 'Back Columns 5', 'command_topic': 'milight/0x2002/rgb_cct/1', 'state_topic': 'milight/states/0x2002/rgb_cct/1', 'unique_id': '5FB8AA-Back Columns 5', 'device': {'name': 'milight-hub1', 'sw_version': 'esp8266_milight_hub v1.11.2', 'manufacturer': 'espressif', 'model': 'nodemcuv2', 'identifiers': '6273194', 'configuration_url': 'http://192.168.1.105'}, 'availability_topic': 'milight/client_status', 'payload_available': 'connected', 'payload_not_available': 'disconnected', 'brightness': True, 'effect': True, 'effect_list': ['night_mode', 'white_mode', '0', '1', '2', '3', '4', '5', '6', '7', '8'], 'rgb': True, 'color_temp': True, 'max_mireds': 370, 'min_mireds': 153, 'platform': 'mqtt'}. This will stop working in Home Assistant Core 2025.3

Additional context

Hi, i have the exact same problem. Errors showing up i Home assistant. Anybody looking at the problem?

[garmck]

This is not a MiLight bug. It is due to the changes in the MQTT Light configuration defined by Home Assistant.
The issue is explained in the first line:
"Deprecated flags [rgb, color_temp] used in MQTT JSON light config for handling color mode, please use supported_color_modes instead."

I would assume your YAML config has the following "rgb: true" or "color_temp: true"
You need to switch to the new config which is e.g. "supported_color_modes: ["rgb"]

i won't be able to look at this for a while but happy to give some pointers if anyone is interested in giving it a shot.

Should be fixed in the 1.12.0-beta1 build. @matthew-hz can you try it out?

[jkp1304]

Been using this beta release for a few days now. No errors at all in Homeassistant.

Thank you :)

[scottmckenzie]

Home Assistant is able to control my lights again after installing 1.12.0-beta1 build. Thanks!

Would it be possible to get file hashes added to the releases?

[jellewie]

I also had the same error, I have now updated to 1.12.0-beta1 and we will see (So far so good)
