Any way to auto discover server? about homie-esp8266 HOT 11 CLOSED

Thanks a lot!

I would go for mDNS as the built-in library for mDNS supports querying whereas the SSDP one does not. What about, in the JSON configuration file, a new mdns field in both the mqtt and ota that, if set to true, would query for the mDNS service defined in a new service field (making host and port optional). I hope I was clear!

Does it sound good to you?

It sounds even more than good! :)

Great! I'll implement it as soon as I can. ;)

I WANT USE HOMEI ，BUT COMPILE ERROR ,CAN YOU HELP ME?

from homie-esp8266.

I bet you are using the 2.0.0 version of the Arduino for ESP8266, you need >= 2.1.0.

By the way, please fill in a new issue if you have a problem, instead of pulluting this one. Thanks!

from homie-esp8266.

Unfortunately, this will have to wait the next Arduino for ESP8266 as mDNS query support has been added after the 2.1.0 release.

from homie-esp8266.

BTW, as far as I know there ahould be installed mDNS/bonjour servers on the Node.js side in order to work. I mean, the solution is not purely node, but we rely on external daemon/service for different OS. Is this the case?

from homie-esp8266.

It seems like there is a pure JS implementation : https://github.com/mdns-js/node-mdns-js

from homie-esp8266.

Will land in next version!

Released!
