Introduction
I’m writing a command line tool called dsbox-lightgpio to wrap GPIO and web services. Command can be entered as arguments or interactively.
for example
dsbox-lightgpio “hue get all”
or
dsbox-lightgpio
> all enable debug
> hue get all
> exit
I have finished coding handlers…
To get the status of all lights excerpt the office
hue get all -office
To set all lights on to white except turn the bedroom off and leave the office as is
hue set all=white bedroom=off -office
To brighten the lounge only if it is on already
hue set lounge?on=+5
