keylight-cli 0.1.3

A Python based CLI to control Elgato Keylights

keylight-cli

A Python CLI module designed to control the Elgato brand Lights. Use this when you want a simple command line to control your keylight. Currently only tested with a Keylight Air.

This was originally created for my purposes, allowing me to control a Keylight Air using a Stream Deck under Linux (using the python streamdeck-ui module)

Dependencies

This uses the excellent leglight python module, and wraps it in a very simple CLI tool.

Usage

The CLI supports multiple keylights on a single network. You can target a specific light with a -s <serial number> parameter before any command. If no serial number is provided, then the CLI will use the first one found on the network (not necessarily guaranteed to be the same one each time). For best results, specify the serial number if you have multiple keylights to control

Run the command without any arguments to see the help
