Control your lifx system through the command line.
npm install -g lifx-client
turn all lights on;
lifx -1
turn all lights off:
lifx -0
turn group:Room on:
lifx -g 'Room' -1
turn group:Room to the color blue:
lifx -g 'Room' -C blue
turn group:Room to the color limegreen with a brightness of 20% and saturation of 42%:
lifx -g 'Room' -C limegreen -B 20 -S 42
pulse group:Room to the color limegreen from the color red with a brightness of 20% and saturation of 42%:
lifx -g 'Room' -p -C limegreen -f red -B 20 -S 42
Try using aliases:
alias room="lifxcli -g 'Room'"This client uses rc-yaml to grab config options. you can use rc files for
specifying default cli arguments. rc will look for rc files with the name
.lifxrc, so for instance you can store your lifx config in ~/.lifxrc.
More info on where rc looks is available here.
