Philips-hue-controller NPM

I wanted to build an Application to controll my Hue Lamps from my PC and got fed up with there not being a good Package to help me build it. Building everything from scratch took forever and i want to save other people from having to do this.

Features

Set Lamp Colors using RGB instead of XY / Hue
Use Promises or Async/Await
Easy to use and setup

    [true] -> State | Can be either true or false. true: on, false: off 
*/
hue.changeState(9, true);



// Change Brightness
/*
    [9] -> LampID | ID of the Lamp
    [125] -> Brightness | An Integer from 0-255 
*/
hue.changeBrightness(9, 125);



// Change Color / Hue using RGB
/*
    [9] -> LampID | ID of the Lamp
     R   [103] -> R-Value | Change the Color of the Lamp.
