# The net/py-zeroconf,python3 port

## py3-zeroconf-0.28.8 – pure Python Multicast DNS Service Discovery Library

## Description

    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
