Appreciate that, I'm not sure if I had the latest repo. But how do I install lgtvcontrol from this?
Do I just put this in terminal after installing hammer spoon and brew?
mkdir -p ~/opt
python -m venv ~/opt/lgtv
cd ~/opt/lgtv
source bin/activate
pip install git+https://github.com/klattimer/LGWebOSRemote
When I do that nothing really happens. I get a zsh: command not found
@jmart987 try it one line at a time instead of copying and pasting the whole thing.

Works great! If you want to change inputs by using keyboard events/taps you could also add this in the .lua
file ( I have this line at the top ) :
local control_inputs = true -- Switch inputs by events from keyboard
And then add this :
event = hs.eventtap.new({hs.eventtap.event.types.keyDown, hs.eventtap.event.types.systemDefined}, function(event)
local type = event:getType()
if type == hs.eventtap.event.types.keyDown then
local keyCode = hs.keycodes.map[event:getKeyCode()]
if keyCode == "f1" then
exec_command("setInput HDMI_1")
elseif keyCode == "f2" then
exec_command("setInput HDMI_2")
elseif keyCode == "f3" then
exec_command("setInput HDMI_3")
elseif keyCode == "f4" then
exec_command("setInput HDMI_4")
end
end
end)
if control_inputs then
event:start()
end
If you want other keys and not f1,2,3,4, just replace the strings with desired keys.
Wondering if I could get some help. I have installed Hmmerspoon & brew. I am reviewing the instructions to install LGWebOS (https://github.com/klattimer/LGWebOSRemote) but it says I have to have several other things installed (Requires wakeonlan, websocket for python (python3-websocket for python3), and getmac. python-pip (python3-pip for python3) and git are required for the installation process.). Is this correct? I'm not sure how to install all of these things on my Mac
