+> NOTE: requires python3
+>
+> This plugin uses child_process to spawn a python script that does the actual
+> communication with the bulb using the bluepy library. Bluepy uses a binary
+> called bluepy-helper which should be run as root or given permission to
+> directly talk to the bluetooth stack.
