Leviton Decora


Support for the Decora Bluetooth dimmer switch Leviton.

The API key can be obtained by downloading this git repository and running the read_key.py script with the Bluetooth address of the switch as the first argument. Hold the switch in the off position until the green status LED starts flashing before running the script. The output is the API key.
