Titanium.Network.BonjourService

The following code excerpt looks for http-based TCP zeroconf services on the local network. It then attempts to resolve the service, establishing a socket that can be used for communications.

// Create the Bonjour Browser (looking for http)
var httpBonjourBrowser = Ti.Network.createBonjourBrowser({
  serviceType: '_http._tcp',
  domain: 'local'
});

// Handle updated services
httpBonjourBrowser.addEventListener('updatedservices', function (e) {
  for (var service of e.services) {
      // callback style
      service.resolve(120, (err, success) => {
          console.log(service.socket);
          console.log(service.socket.port);
          console.log(service.socket.host);
      });
  }
});

// Start searching
httpBonjourBrowser.search();

The following code excerpt creates a zeroconf bonjour service and publishes it out to the local network. A TCP Socket is used to handle listening for clients and communicating.

// Create the Bonjour Service
var localService = Ti.Network.createBonjourService({
  name: 'example',
  type: '_test._tcp',
  domain: 'local.'
});

// Create the socket we'll tie to the service
var bonjourSocket = Ti.Network.Socket.createTCP({
  host: '127.0.0.1',
  port: 40401,
  accepted: function (e) {
    // Here you handle clients connecting
    Ti.API.info("Listening socket <" + e.socket + "> accepted incoming connection <" + e.inbound + ">");
    e.inbound.write(Ti.createBuffer({
      value: 'You have been connected to a listening socket.\r\n'
    }));
    e.inbound.close();
  },
  error: function (e) {
    // handle errors...
    Ti.API.error("Socket <" + e.socket + "> encountered error when listening");
    Ti.API.error(" error code <" + e.errorCode + ">");
    Ti.API.error(" error description <" + e.error + ">");
  }
});

// Make the socket listen for connections
bonjourSocket.listen();

// Make the socket accept incoming connections
bonjourSocket.accept({ timeout: 10000 });

// Publish the service
localService.publish(bonjourSocket, function (err, bool) {
  // Now you can find the service on your network (including using a Ti.Network.BonjourBrowser)
});
