I talk to LIFX lightbulbs over a LAN

I wrote code 'lanlifx' for getting information about LIFX devices over the LAN, as well as controlling power to the device. I put this on github https://github.com/str255/lanlifx .


This runs on linux platforms targeted primarily towards raspberry PIs, ubuntu, or debian, but hopefully works on any linux. There are some Python and GO sources for doing much the same thing, and a proprietary LIFX Android app. You have to register your email to use the proprietary app.

Running lanlifx will list all LIFX devices on your local net.
