Hello I am looking into this package, because I would like to replace mdns-js with digd.js

To do so I need support for DNS-SD. I also need to announce a mDNS Service and afterwards create a browser to find mDNS announce messages in the network.

I also need to have a setup which supports DNS-SD. Any help would be appreciated on how to achive this with the libraries you created. I want to use this in nmos-ledger from streampunk media later.

Thankyou

I'd suggest looking at the documentation at mdig.js for first steps.

If for some reason that's not working for your application, we might be able to apply these patches, which handle some nuances I hadn't yet: #6

I've been meaning to pull it in for a while, but I have merge conflicts and updating this library has fallen behind other tasks for Telebit and Hub (the reasons I built it).

...I suppose I should just pull the changes in to master and handle the conflicts on my dyndns http api branch (much) later.

I don't remember the details of DNS-SD (that's the Microsoft version, I think?) but I think mdig -p 5353 @224.0.0.251 PTR _services._dns-sd._udp.local +time=3 is the first step, yeah?
