Docker image for the avahi-tools to communicate (as a client) with the avahi-daemon running on docker host. Built on Alpine Linux to make the image as small as possible.
Basic usage consists of running the docker container, mapping the required directories (dbus and avahi-daemon directories) to communicate with the avahi-daemon and calling one of the avahi-* commands to achieve your desired behaviour.
docker run -v /run/dbus:/var/run/dbus -v /run/avahi-daemon:/var/run/avahi-daemon --nework host ahasbini/avahi-tools:latest avahi-publish-service -s machine_hostname _ssh._tcp 2222
