i see a lot of people asking for how to communicate with their boblightd setup. And i wanted to do the same with my boblightd.
So my approach was to take the boblight.py from bobo1on1's XMBC plugin and write custom code for it.
Github: https://github.com/doebi/boblight-python
There is `boblight-pyhon` which creates a rainbow animation by default, but can be completely rescripted.
And `boblight-web` which runs a webinterface on http://localhost:5000/ where you can define a static color.
It should be easy to get started with it now. Feel free to use it for your projects.
Cheers doebi
Disclaimer: Since i hacked this script in the last couple of days it is by far not feature complete nor stable.
