Install with pip3. Be forewarned that aiobroadlink needs the 'cryptography' library. This library will be automatically installed, but for this to succeed, you do need to be able to compile things. To that effect you need a compiler and some header files. On Debian/Ubuntu distributions, this means you need the packages 'libffi-dev' and 'libssl-dev'
You can run
aiobroadlink
or
python3 -m aiobroadlink
If your IP address cannot be guessed, do
aiobroadlink -i xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
with xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx the IP address of the interface you want to use.
When learning commands, they will be save in the file ~/.aiobroadlink.
