Usage

To use yeelight, first enable “development mode” on your bulb through the YeeLight app. Then, just import the library into your project like so:

Contributing

If you’d like to contribute to the code, thank you! To install the various libraries required, run (preferably in a virtualenv):

$ pip install -Ur requirements_dev.txt

In order for your MR to pass CI, it needs to be checked by various utilities, which are managed by pre-commit. pre-commit will be installed by the above command, but you also need to install the pre-commit hook:

$ pre-commit install

The hook will run on commit. To run it manually (e.g. if you’ve already committed but forgot to run it, just run):

$ pre-commit run -a

Thanks again!
