This is fork of pyzeroconf, Multicast DNS Service Discovery for Python, originally by Paul Scott-Murphy (https://github.com/paulsm/pyzeroconf), modified by William McBrine (https://github.com/wmcbrine/pyzeroconf).
The original William McBrine's fork note:
This fork is used in all of my TiVo-related projects: HME for Python
(and therefore HME/VLC), Network Remote, Remote Proxy, and pyTivo.
Before this, I was tracking the changes for zeroconf.py in three
separate repos. I figured I should have an authoritative source.
Although I make changes based on my experience with TiVos, I expect that
they're generally applicable. This version also includes patches found
on the now-defunct (?) Launchpad repo of pyzeroconf, and elsewhere
around the net -- not always well-documented, sorry.Compatible with:
- Bonjour
- Avahi
Compared to some other Zeroconf/Bonjour/Avahi Python packages, python-zeroconf:
- isn't tied to Bonjour or Avahi
- doesn't use D-Bus
- doesn't force you to use particular event loop or Twisted
- is pip-installable
- has PyPI distribution
- CPython 3.4+
- PyPy3 5.8+
This project's versions follow the following pattern: MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH.
- MAJOR version has been 0 so far
- MINOR version is incremented on backward incompatible changes
- PATCH version is incremented on backward compatible changes
There are some people using this package. I don't actively use it and as such any help I can offer with regard to any issues is very limited.

- GitHub project https://github.com/jstasiak/python-zeroconf
The easiest way to install python-zeroconf is using pip:
pip install zeroconfHere's an example of browsing for a service:
from zeroconf import ServiceBrowser, Zeroconf
class MyListener:
def remove_service(self, zeroconf, type, name):
print("Service %s removed" % (name,))
def add_service(self, zeroconf, type, name):
info = zeroconf.get_service_info(type, name)
print("Service %s added, service info: %s" % (name, info))
zeroconf = Zeroconf()
listener = MyListener()
browser = ServiceBrowser(zeroconf, "_http._tcp.local.", listener)
try:
input("Press enter to exit...\n\n")
finally:
zeroconf.close()Note
Discovery and service registration use all available network interfaces by default. If you want to customize that you need to specify interfaces argument when constructing Zeroconf object (see the code for details).
If you don't know the name of the service you need to browse for, try:
See examples directory for more.
0.20.0 (not released yet) ------
- Dropped support for Python 2 (this includes PyPy) and 3.3
- Fixed some class' equality operators
- ServiceBrowser entries are being refreshed when 'stale' now
- Cache returns new records first now instead of last
- Allowed installation with netifaces >= 0.10.6 (a bug that was concerning us got fixed)
- Technically backwards incompatible - restricted netifaces dependency version to work around a bug, see python-zeroconf#84 for details
- Dropped Python 2.6 support
- Improved error handling inside code executed when Zeroconf object is being closed
- Better Handling of DNS Incoming Packets parsing exceptions
- Many exceptions will now log a warning the first time they are seen
- Catch and log sendto() errors
- Fix/Implement duplicate name change
- Fix overly strict name validation introduced in 0.17.6
- Greatly improve handling of oversized packets including:
- Implement name compression per RFC1035
- Limit size of generated packets to 9000 bytes as per RFC6762
- Better handle over sized incoming packets
- Increased test coverage to 95%
- Many improvements to address race conditions and exceptions during ZC() startup and shutdown, thanks to: morpav, veawor, justingiorgi, herczy, stephenrauch
- Added more test coverage: strahlex, stephenrauch
- Stephen Rauch contributed:

- Fixed support for Linux kernel versions < 3.9 (thanks to Giovanni Harting and Luckydonald, GitHub pull request #26)
- Fixed DNSText repr on Python 3 (it'd crash when the text was longer than 10 bytes), thanks to Paulus Schoutsen for the patch, GitHub pull request #24

- Added some Python dependencies so it's not zero-dependencies anymore
- Improved exception handling (it'll be quieter now)
- Messages are listened to and sent using all available network interfaces by default (configurable); thanks to Marcus Müller
- Started using logging more freely
- Fixed a bug with binary strings as property values being converted to False (python-zeroconf#10); thanks to Dr. Seuss
- Added new
ServiceBrowserevent handler interface (see the examples) - PyPy3 now officially supported
- Fixed ServiceInfo repr on Python 3, thanks to Yordan Miladinov
- Set up Python logging and started using it
