This project provides a Python3 package for controlling iLC Bluetooth light bulbs such as https://ilctech.myshopify.com/collections/lighting-1/products/ilc-bluetooth-bulbs-9w-e27 .
The code is tested on Python 3.5.

$ sudo pip3 install ilcctl
On Fedora do:
$ sudo dnf install python3-pip glib2-devel
If this fails you should install from source.

$ git clone https://github.com/h3nr1-g/ilcctl
$ cd ilcctl
$ python3 setup.py build
$ sudo python3 setup.py install
This package provides also a small commandline interface for shell based interactions with the light bulbs
