In case anyone is looking for an MQTT interface to Pixelblaze, I just posted my latest version.

If you’re not familiar with [MQTT](https://mqtt.org/), I highly recommend this for automating your Pixelblaze systems if you want to get away from directly using HTTP and/or Websockets.

Most of the major home automation platforms support MQTT, and certainly you can hook it up to visual platforms like [Node-RED](https://nodered.org/) to control your Pixelblazes without directly writing any code.

(Also, having both synchronous and async versions of the Python API is just plain cool. Thanks, @Nick_W! 🙂 )
