Project description

# A pure python client to connect to a pilight daemon
[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/DavidLP/pilight.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/DavidLP/pilight)
[![Coverage Status](https://coveralls.io/repos/github/DavidLP/pilight/badge.svg?branch=master)](https://coveralls.io/github/DavidLP/pilight?branch=master)

This client interfaces with the `pilight-daemon` to send and receive RF codes (https://www.pilight.org/).

Sending and receiving is implemented in an asychronous way. A callback function can be defined
that reacts on received data. Automatic acknowledge if the send data was transmitted by the pilight-daemon
is implemented.

All `pilight-send` commands can be used by this client (https://wiki.pilight.org/doku.php/psend).
The API is mentioned here: https://manual.pilight.org/en/api.
