Configuration

This client uses rc-yaml to grab config options. you can use rc files for specifying default cli arguments. rc will look for rc files with the name .lifxrc, so for instance you can store your lifx config in ~/.lifxrc.

More info on where rc looks is available here.

( I'd suggest saving your token here )

token: [LIFX_API_TOKEN]
duration: 2 // default the duration to 2 seconds
