This repo has a few handy scripts for spooking up your environment using the IP-controllable Phillips Hue series of lights.
These scripts assume you have a Hue starter pack of 3 lights. Adjustments will be required if you have more than/less than 3 lights.
This isn't the best packaging or the best Python but it's good enough for a quick Halloween bodge.
- Clone:
git clone git@github.com:JamesHarrison/hallowedhue.git; cd hallowedhue - Setup Python environment:
pip install virtualenv; virtualenv venv; source venv/bin/activate; pip install -r requirements.txt

- Run
spooky.py ip-of-bridge, egspooky.py 192.168.0.213
Pair with a theatrical haze generator for best results. hallowedhue is known to look damn good with an Antari X-310PRO.
