v3.4.1

v3.4.1 : We are Free !!

• feat: native implementation of discovery, update documentation by @aminekun90 in #38

This Release is a refining of the complete rewrite of the core architecture in 3.4.0. The library has moved from being a wrapper around external libraries to a Zero-Dependency, Native Node.js implementation using typescript.

Overview

We have replaced bonjour-service and multicast-dns with a custom, lightweight DNS packet parser/encoder using native dgram sockets. This significantly reduces the bundle size, improves security, and gives us low-level control over the mDNS protocol.

lets celebrate our 70th tag/ 56th release with all these exciting changes 🎉

✨ Key Features

1. Active Service Discovery (Scanning)

• New Method: Added core.scan(serviceType).
• Functionality: Unlike the passive listener, this allows the library to actively query the network.
• Use Cases: Find all Google Casts (_googlecast._tcp.local), Printers (_ipp._tcp.local), or AirPlay devices (_airplay._tcp.local).

2. Expanded Protocol Support

• SRV Records: Now parses Service records to extract Ports, Priority, and Weights.
• PTR Records: Now follows Pointers to discover service instances.
• A Records: improved IPv4 address extraction.

3. New Event: EmittedEvent.DISCOVERY

• A new event type tailored for scanning results.
• Returns a normalized Device object containing type (PTR/SRV/A) and parsed data.

Other

• Stability & Logic Improvements
• Documentation update Readme refactoring Done

⚠️ Breaking Changes

• Internal: The mdnsInstance and publisher properties no longer exist on the Core class (as we removed the libraries they relied on).
• Output: The RAW_RESPONSE event now returns the structure from our custom parser, which may differ slightly from the old library's format.
