Simple python server for accessing a RGB matrix via Pixelflut protocol

Pixelflut protocol

Pixelflut is a very simple (and inefficient) ASCII based network protocol to draw pixels on a screen. It is described here and here.

Supported protocol features

matrixflut currently supports only these basic commands:

• SIZE: Returns the size of the visible canvas in pixel as SIZE <w> <h>
• PX <x> <y> <rrggbb(aa)>: Draw a single pixel at position (x, y) with the specified hex color code
• BRIGHTNESS <number>: A brightness value between 0 and 100

How to start

python3 server.py
