I created an Appdaemon App so I can dimm my smart LEDs using a Xiaomi Round Button
I already use strategically placed Xiaomi Buttons to toggle some lights, especially in the bathroom, and the bedroom. In these rooms there is no Alexa and I don’t always have my Smartphone at hand.
What I couldn’t do with these buttons until know was to adjust the brightness.
To do that I created an Appdaemon App which increases the brightness as long as I hold the button. If it increases beyong 100% it starts again from 0%.
You can find the Appdaemon App in my repo under https://github.com/eifinger/appdaemon-scripts/tree/master/buttonClicked
Edit
User nickrout pointed out to me that this has been done done before using built in scripts and automations. You can find these blog posts here:
