Take a look at the example folder. Install the dependencies, run node server.js and launch the project.
`javascript`

const zeroconf = new Zeroconf()
##### Methods
###### scan(type = 'http', protocol = 'tcp', domain = 'local.') Start the zeroconf scan
This will initialize the scan from the Zeroconf instance. Will stop another scan if any is running.
###### stop() Stop the scan
If any scan is running, stop it. Otherwise do nothing.
###### getServices() Returns resolved services
Will return all names of services that have been resolved.
###### removeDeviceListeners() Remove listeners
Allow you to clean the listeners, avoiding potential memory leaks (#33).
###### addDeviceListeners() Add listeners
If you cleaned the listeners and need to get them back on.
###### publishService(type, protocol, domain, name, port, txt) Publish a service
This adds a service for the current device to the discoverable services on the network.
domain should be the domain the service is sitting on, dot suffixed, for example 'local.'type should be both type and protocol, underscore prefixed, for example '_http._tcp'name should be unique to the device, often the device nameport should be an integertxt should be a hash, for example {"foo": "bar"}
###### unpublishService(name) Unpublish a service
This removes a service from those discoverable on the network.
name should be the name used when publishing the service
