Lamp is a backlight control program written in Rust and inspired by

[acpibacklight](https://gitlab.com/wavexx/acpilight).

## Features

In contrast to acpilight lamp is not backwards compatible with xbacklight.

It is intended to be used as a standalone replacement for new scripts.

```none

Commands:

    set     Sets brightness to given value

    inc     Increase brightness

    dec     Decrease brightness

    get     Prints current brightness value

    zero    Sets brightness to lowest value

    full    Sets brightness to highest value

    help    Print this message or the help of the given subcommand(s)

Options:

    -l, --list                      Lists all devices with controllable brightness and led values

    -c, --controller        Select device to control, defaults to the first device found

    -t, --type     choose controller type [default: lin] [possible values: raw, lin, log]

    -h, --help                      Print help (see a summary with '-h')

    -V, --version                   Print version information

```

## Install

Binary packages for the following systems are currently available.

[![Packaging status](https://repology.org/badge/vertical-allrepos/lamp.svg)](https://repology.org/project/lamp/versions)

You can also install it via `cargo`:

```bash

cargo install lamp

```

You have to make sure, that you have write access to `/sys/class/backlight/`.

This can be achieved by using udev rules like `90-backlight.rules` in this repo.

## Build

lamp is a pure Rust project so you can simply run `cargo build` after installing the Rust toolchain.

Formatting is done via `cargo fmt` with the default rules and in the pipeline `clippy` is run with the following arguments:

```bash

cargo clippy -- --deny clippy::all --deny warnings

```
