$ lgtv auth 192.168.1.31 MyTV
# At this point the TV will request pairing, follow the instructions on screen
# Commands are basically
#$ lgtv TVNAME COMMAND COMMAND ARGS
$ lgtv MyTV on
$ lgtv MyTV off
# If you have the youtube plugin
$ lgtv MyTV openYoutubeURL https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ
# Otherwise, this works reasonably well
$ lgtv MyTV openBrowserAt https://www.youtube.com/tv#/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ
You need to auth with the TV before being able to use the on command as it requires the mac address.
Implement the following features:
closeToast
createAlert
closeAlert
getSystemSettings
