aiolifx-themes
Async library that applies color themes to LIFX lights
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
Yes, if you use LIFX lights and want async theme control in Python. The package is actively maintained, has no known vulnerabilities, low install friction, and a permissive MIT license. The narrow scope (themes for LIFX only) and small user base (top 15000 tier) mean it is purpose-built rather than general-purpose, so install only if LIFX theming is your actual use case.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires Python 3.12 or later; aiolifx must be installed and configured to communicate with LIFX devices on your network.
- Low install friction with a pure-Python wheel distribution.
- Actively maintained as of August 2026, with recent commits and a straightforward single runtime dependency on aiolifx.

What it is and what it does
aiolifx-themes is an async Python library that simplifies applying color themes to LIFX smart lights. It builds on top of aiolifx, the lower-level async LIFX control library, to provide a higher-level interface for theme-based lighting. The package is designed for developers who want to programmatically control LIFX lights with themed color schemes in async Python applications.
The library targets Python 3.12 and later and is actively maintained. It is typed and follows modern Python async conventions. The single runtime dependency on aiolifx keeps the install footprint minimal, and the pure-Python wheel distribution means no compilation is required.
Use it for
- Automate lighting scenes in a smart home by applying predefined color themes to LIFX bulbs
- Build a dashboard or app that lets users switch between themed lighting profiles for different moods or activities
- Integrate LIFX theme control into an async event-driven system or orchestration framework
- Script batch theme application across multiple LIFX devices in a home or office
