multicast-dns-peer

Find peers using multicast-dns.

Install

``
npm install --save multicast-dns-peer
`

Use

`js
var mdp = require('multicast-dns-peer')('yolopeers')
mdp.on('peer', function(peer) {
console.log(peer)
mdp.destroy()
})
`

The default peer information is not very useful, it only contains the peer id. You'll typically want to add some additional answer records with connection information.

Options

`js
var mdp = require('multicast-dns-peer')('yolopeers', {
queryInterval : 2000, // how often to query for peers (default 5000)
answers : [ // additional peer records
{
name : 'peer2',
type : 'A',
ttl : 300,
data : '192.168.1.2'
},
{
name : 'yolo-service',
type : 'SRV',
data : {
port : 9999,
target : 'yolo-service.yolopeers.com'
}
}
]
})
``

enjoy.
