Raw TP-Link (Kasa) command sender/receiver
Each invocation sends a single command and receives a single packet in response.
This program is a minimal substitute for the tplink-lightbulb Node package or a copy of Homekit. Because it's C, it's about 40x faster than the Node package. On a Raspberry Pi, that matters.
Building:
make
Usage:
./kasa <ip-address> <json-blob>
./kasa scan
./kasa-wrapper lamp off
./bulb dimmer 20\%
There's a good list of JSON blobs to try here:

Especially:
- get bulb info:
./kasa <ip> '{"system":{"get_sysinfo":null}}' - turn bulb on:
./kasa <ip> '{"system":{"set_relay_state":{"state":1}}}' - turn bulb off:
./kasa <ip> '{"system":{"set_relay_state":{"state":0}}}'
