Getting started

Installation

You can grab a binary from the releases page, or you can build one yourself

Usage

Here are some examples on how you might use this tool

skiller-cli color red   # set the color to red

skiller-cli -p 3 color blue   # set the color on profile 3 to blue

skiller-cli brightness static 5 white   # set the brightness to level 5

You can get more information amout each subcommand by passing the --help flag to the program like so:

> skiller-cli brightness static --help

A static color at the given brightness

Usage: skiller-cli brightness static <LEVEL> <COLOR>

Arguments:
  <LEVEL>
  <COLOR>  [possible values: red, green, blue, purple, cyan, yellow, white]

Note about the brightness subcommand: You need to specify the color along with the brightness since the usb command to control the brightness also wants the color (no idea why they did it this way)

Building

In order to build this program, you need to have a rust toolchain installed. You can get it here

To build a ready-to-use binary just run:

cargo build --release

The binary will be at target/releasee/skiller-cli
