How to simulate a simple light sensor in Gazebo?

Hi all, I would like to simulate a light sensor. The only solution I found for it is this old link at ROS answers. Is there any more modern way of doing it already implemented in the newest versions of Gazebo?

Thanks

A modified camera sensor is still the best option. You can write a plugin to a camera sensor to process the pixel data and output an appropriate value.
