Sunrise Simulation for TP-Link Kasa color lightbulbs with web interface using node.js.

Apparently there's science that says that sunrise is a healthy way to wake up. If your boss won't let you schedule your day around the sun, you need this.

Sunrise Simulation Demo

Get the TP-Link LB-130s configured and named on the LAN with the Kasa app. Update firmware. LB-230s should work, but have not been tested. This works on Linux. It should work with node and npm on an always-on Windows or OS-X machine, but those have not been tested. E-mail alwynallan@gmail.com with info.

Requires some node.js packages:

        $ npm install

Note that node-persist requires user write permission in the working directory.

Try

        $ node master.js

then configure at http://localhost:8000/ with a UI like this

User Interface

To install permanently, if Ubuntu 18.04, avoid bugs with

       $ sudo npm install -g npm@latest
       $ hash -d npm

then for any Linux/OS-X

       $ sudo npm install -g forever
       $ crontab -e

And add the lines

       SP=[Absolute path to master.js]
       @reboot /usr/local/bin/forever start --workingDir $SP $SP/master.js

Then test

        $ sudo reboot
