setting bulb alias #138

Closed jman025 closed 5 years ago

jman025 commented 6 years ago

I am creating a python script with your module to control an LB110(US) bulb. Attempting to change its alias via bulb.alias = "foo" within python 3.5, does not change the result of print(bulb.alias). Is there a reason for this. At the top of the script I am importing from pyHS100 import cli, smartbulb, smartdevice, protocon, and even smartplug.

bulb.state = "OFF" works just fine as well as the other bulb specific functions. Changing the alias the same way you would for the bulb state just isn't working.

That should change it, maybe you are calling your print too fast after the change? Can you try pyhs100 alias <new alias> and then pyhs100 alias to see if the cli tool works for you? When I added that it worked just fine on my HS110.

Please reopen if this is still an issue.
