Passthru Hue device does not use name set in ha-bridge

[TheOriginalAndrobot]

Currently, the name set in the ha-bridge item config of a passthru Hue device is ignored and instead the original device name from the Hue Bridge is advertised to clients of ha-bridge. It would be great if the device name was overridden in the pass-through response to use the configured name instead.

I can update the response to use the ha-bridge name. Makes sense as it is proxied.

Now looking at my code, I am very confused on what name is not passed? All the responses use ID and I do set the ID of the bridge.

Say I have the following setup:

I have a real Hue light named "Real Lamp", as set in the Hue App and stored in the Hue Bridge.

In ha-bridge, I set it up as a passthru device. In the edit device page, I set the 'Name' field to "Fake Lamp". The device shows up in the ha-bridge 'Bridge Devices' list as "Fake Lamp".

The clients of ha-bridge see a device called "Real Lamp" instead of "Fake Lamp". I would have expected the name set in ha-bridge to override the name reported by the Hue Bridge.

Ahh, got it. It is in the pass through 'get' lights call.

Just a question:

I noticed this behavior too. My Google Home reports the Hue name and not the ha-bridge name.

Do users need to re-add the devices after changing the name? Or does everything internally work with ID's? If users need to re-add, maybe it's an idea to add a line in the release notes..

This will be changed in the new release
