About Actor Light Fixture

Need to automate your logo design workflow or pull consistent branding assets from a project? Actor Light Fixture is built for that. It's a developer-focused tool that lets you control and extract logos and light fixture data programmatically. I use it to batch-process client branding packages, pulling out different logo variations and specs without manually opening dozens of files. The actor can fetch logos from URLs or designated sources, handle different file formats, and organize the output. It’s really handy for building asset libraries, populating style guides automatically, or ensuring brand consistency across multiple platforms by having a single, automated source for your logos and fixture details. You can run it on a schedule to check for updated assets or integrate it into a larger pipeline that feeds design systems or CMS platforms. Setting it up is straightforward. You define your source and what you need—like specific logo types or technical specs for lighting products—and it structures the data for you. It saves our team hours of manual collection and helps avoid errors when someone grabs an outdated logo version. If you're managing digital assets or product data and wish you could automate the tedious parts, this actor is a solid solution.

Documentation

Actor Light Fixture Control

Overview

A utility actor for controlling the physical LED light fixture attached to an Apify actor's container. It allows you to programmatically change the light color based on job status, custom triggers, or errors.

Key Features

  • Color Control: Set the light to any RGB color (e.g., red for errors, green for success, blue for processing).
  • Status Mapping: Automatically map standard Apify actor run statuses (SUCCEEDED, FAILED, etc.) to predefined colors.
  • Error Highlighting: Integrate with try/catch blocks to flash the light red on job failures.
  • Simple API: Control the light with a single function call from within your actor's code.

How to Use

  1. Add to Dependencies: Include apify-light-fixture in your actor's package.json file.
  2. Import and Initialize: Require the module in your main code file.
  3. Call the setLight Function: Use it to change the color at any point in your actor's execution.

Basic Example

const { setLight } = require('apify-light-fixture');

// Set a custom color (RGB values 0-255)
await setLight({ red: 0, green: 255, blue: 0 }); // Green light

// Use a predefined status color
await setLight('SUCCEEDED'); // Turns green
await setLight('FAILED');    // Turns red

Integration with Actor Logic

const Apify = require('apify');
const { setLight } = require('apify-light-fixture');

Apify.main(async () => {
    await setLight('RUNNING'); // Blue during processing

    try {
        // Your main actor logic here...
        await setLight('SUCCEEDED');
    } catch (err) {
        await setLight('FAILED'); // Red on error
        throw err;
    }
});

Input/Output

  • Input for setLight: Accepts either a string for a named status ('RUNNING', 'SUCCEEDED', 'FAILED', 'READY', 'TIMEOUT') or an object with red, green, blue properties (0-255).
  • Output: The function returns a promise that resolves once the light command has been sent. The physical light fixture on the actor's container will change to the specified color.
