💖 NAME 💖

avahi-bookmarks — a web service showing mDNS/DNS-SD announced HTTP services using the Avahi daemon. And yup, bestie, this is the avahi-bookmarks(1) page from the General Commands Manual, so you’re in the right place. 🦋

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

avahi-bookmarks

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so picture this: avahi-bookmarks is a web service for listing HTTP services that are announced via mDNS/DNS-SD using the Avahi daemon. The way that it works is avahi-bookmarks opens a TCP socket on port 8080 and waits for incoming HTTP connections, returning a dynamic web site containing links to all services of type _http._tcp on the LAN. Point your browser to http://localhost:8080/ to make use of avahi-bookmarks, and honestly? let it cook. 🔥

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

  • -p | --port= PORT — tell it which TCP port number to listen on. If you omit it, it defaults to 8080. 💅
  • -a | --address= address — tell it which IP address to listen on. If you omit it, it defaults to 127.0.0.1. If you want to allow remote access, specify 0.0.0.0. 🌈
  • -H | --host-names — create links pointing to mDNS host names instead of resolved IP addresses. This is only compatible with your browser if you run some kind of local NSS module to resolve mDNS host names (e.g. nss-mdns). If both -A and -H are omitted, avahi-bookmarks detects whether NSS support is available locally. This option conflicts with -A. 🫶
  • -A | --addresses — create links pointing to numeric IP addresses instead of mDNS host names. This will break access to hosts running virtual servers. If both -A and -H are omitted, avahi-bookmarks detects whether NSS support is available locally. This option conflicts with -H. 💀
  • -d | --domain=DOMAIN — the domain to browse for services in. 🧚
  • -h | --help — show help. ⭐
