Python library for managing the phillips hue lightbulb

Getting Started

=================

To get started you can get a list of your lights and work with them:

.. code-block:: python

    from bulby.client import HueBridgeClient

    client = HueBridgeClient()

    light = client.get_lights()[0]

    client.set_color(light.light_id, '00ff00')

and now your light should be green! You can also reference lights by name:

.. code-block:: python

    from bulby.client import HueBridgeClient

    client = HueBridgeClient()

    client.set_color('Office 1', '00ff00')

Tips

====

To get the bridge IP go here:

https://www.meethue.com/api/nupnp

Once you get the IP you can debug the base here:

http:///debug/clip.html

Development

================

API Documentation for the Phillips Hue is here:

http://www.developers.meethue.com/

You can test the API of your phillips hue by going to ``/debug/clip.html``.

Running tests

=================

To run the tests you can do the following:

.. code-block:: bash

    tox -e py34

The first time you run the tests you will need to hold the link button.
