Want to turn a lamp off? Just do cURL -X PUT -d '{"on":false}' http://(your hub's address)/api/(your hash)/lights/(light number)/state.

@ceruleanspark Of course! It's so simple!

@thelastgherkin It's for those lightbulbs I was showing you in the apple store.

@ceruleanspark I still think that it seems an awful lot of hassle.

@thelastgherkin Yeah there's a proper app for it. The curl based access is just for the kind of person who wants to have a linux server control their lighting through cron or a webui.

@ceruleanspark I think it's just for people who don't want to walk over to a lightswitch.

@thelastgherkin They still work via a switch, but the beauty of hooking them up to a server is you can link them to things happening on the machine, like have your room lighting reflect the film you're watching, or music or whatever

@thelastgherkin Apparently they're "So good they will ruin regular lightbulbs for you forever"

@ceruleanspark This is a very suspect phrase to hear in connection with an Apple Store.

@toksyuryel Philips makes the bulbs. It's their "hue" wireless range. I think they're only in the Apple store because the phrase "$60 lightbulb" would look ridiculous anywhere else.
