Flame is a browser for Bonjour (also known as ZeroConf) network services. It lists the services advertised on your wireless network and you can browse them by server or by service type. When selecting a service, its advertised details are displayed.

If an application on your iPhone or iPod touch can handle any of the advertised services, a command to open it right away is provided.

Development

I use xcodegen to manage my project file. The start shell script will generate the project file and restart xcode with it.

To build and run on a physical device you need the com.apple.developer.networking.multicast entitlement, which needs to be explicitly requested from Apple - it's not self service, and the app will not be able to discover local services without it.

TODO

  • Long domains and service names are clipping and there's no real way of seeing the full thing.
  • Need better way of copying IP and names without relying on users discovering long-press of rows.
  • If a service has an openable action I want to expose that on the list of hosts
  • Networking layer desperately needs to be async not this dispatchqueue nightmare
