alga 1.1.0
Alga
A command line utility for controlling a LG webOS TV over the network.
Installing
Alga is available on PyPI.
I would recommend installing it via pipx:
$ pipx install alga
Or, via Nix flakes:
nix run github:Tenzer/alga
Setup
The first time you use the utility, you will need to setup a connection to the TV.
With the TV on, run alga setup [hostname/IP].
This will bring up a prompt on the TV asking if you want to accept the pairing.
When accepted, Alga will be ready to use.
If no hostname or IP address is provided to alga setup, it will be default try to connect to "lgwebostv" which should work.
The hostname, a key and MAC address will be written to ~/.config/alga/config.json for future use.
Note: It's currently only possible to pair Alga with one TV at a time.
Let me know if this is a deal breaker for you.
