This library wraps C libraries implementing the dnssd:

Discover, publish, and resolve network services on a local area or wide area network.

It integrates into the asynchronous tokio framework.

The documentation is located at https://stbuehler.github.io/rustdocs/async-dnssd/async_dnssd/.

Documentation for released versions available at https://docs.rs/crate/async-dnssd/.

lib.rs:

Asynchronous wrapper for DNS-SD C libraries

Interesting entry points:

• Browse for available services
• Create Connection to register records with
• Enumerate domains that are recommended for registration or browsing
• Query for an arbitrary DNS record
• Register a service
• Add a record to a registered service
• Register record
• Find hostname and port (and more) for a service

Also the following things might be interesting:

• Purge record from cache
• Construct full name
• Stream timeouts

Porting from dnssd C API

The following functions are called automatically when needed:

• DNSServiceProcessResult driving callbacks (event loop)
• DNSServiceRefDeallocate called when dropping various resource handles
• DNSServiceRefSockFD used for integration with tokio (event loop)
• DNSServiceRemoveRecord called when dropping Record

The TXTRecord* "TXT Record Construction Functions" are not wrapped; TxtRecord provides a native rust implementation with similar functionality.
