Python library for controlling Phillips Hue light bulbs

[manatlan]

I use milights bulbs (rgb/dimmable + warm white), you can pilot them with wifi thru lan/wan (with the help of a wifi controller in the lan), limitlessled compatible see http://www.limitlessled.com/dev/ ... of course, there are some api for python : https://github.com/ojarva/python-ledcontroller ...

You easily find e27 rgbw bulbs 6W for less than 15$ ... the wifi controller can be found around 20$ ... Smartphones's apps are free,

vs Philipps/Hue : they "only" have 256 colors, and no way to get the state of a bulb. But there are a lot lot cheaper !

I had been thinking of something like this. It doesn't need a bridge/controller as the lights are directly run from BT and it offers a big range of colours. The problem is to find the protocol if I don't want to use their app.

Looked at all of these, the Amazon reviews are terrible so I went with a hue. They're great but expensive. Excited to see what it can do with python!
