Note: This is silly and useless now thanks to the ETHInterface that was introduced into cjdns some time ago
Automatically connect with cjdns peers on the LAN, courtesy of avahi/zeroconf.
python-avahi python-gobject avahi-daemon
These are the names of the debian/ubuntu packages that I had to install to get it working. I think that's all, please let me know if there's anything else or a more proper name for any of them
First run config.py to generate a config file.
Run python broadcast.py to broadcast the service. For the time being it will broadcast until the enter key or ctrl-c is pressed
Run python discover.py to discover peers on the LAN.
Please note that this is still in development and probably wont work. You're on your own.
Some ideas I've had, please feel free to submit pull requests for these or other features:
- GUI to display local peers
- Autohiding to the task bar
- Suggested by rainfly_x: Notify when new peers are found via PyNotify
