This is fork of pyzeroconf, Multicast DNS Service Discovery for Python,
originally by Paul Scott-Murphy (https://github.com/paulsm/pyzeroconf),
modified by William McBrine (https://github.com/wmcbrine/pyzeroconf).
The original William McBrine's fork note:
This fork is used in all of my TiVo-related projects: HME for Python (and
therefore HME/VLC), Network Remote, Remote Proxy, and pyTivo. Before this,
I was tracking the changes for zeroconf.py in three separate repos.
I figured I should have an authoritative source.
Although I make changes based on my experience with TiVos, I expect that
they're generally applicable. This version also includes patches found on the
now-defunct (?) Launchpad repo of pyzeroconf, and elsewhere around the net --
not always well-documented, sorry. Compatible with:
- Bonjour
- Avahi
Compared to some other Zeroconf/Bonjour/Avahi Python packages, python-zeroconf:
- isn't tied to Bonjour or Avahi
- doesn't use D-Bus
- doesn't force you to use particular event loop or Twisted
- is pip-installable
- has PyPI distribution
