Recla is a small Python application, that adjusts your screen color temperature at sunrise and sunset, to reduce the strain caused by blue light in dark ambience.
Currently, Recla requires your location coordinates in order to perform a GET request to the Sunrise-Sunset.org public API and receive the sunrise/sunset values per day.
In the future, scheduled times may be used instead.
Recla is intended to run as a daemon/service, so its current state requires a lot of optimization.
A GUI will also be added for configuration, so expect major functionality updates soon!
Recla uses sct, created by Ted Unangst.
Python
Using Python 3:
pip install -r requirements.txt
System
If you want to compile sct yourself, for Ubuntu-based distributions you will need:
sudo apt install libx11-dev libxrandr-dev
You can currently run Recla manually.

| latitude | -z | --lat= |
| longitude | -y | --lon= |
| day temperature | -d | --day_temp= |
| night temperature | -n | --night_temp= |
Example usage:
python3 recla.py -z <latitude> -y <longitude> -d <day temperature> -n <night temperature>
python3 recla.py --lat=<latitude> --lon=<longitude> --day_temp=<day temperature> --night_temp=<night temperature>
