From 5c4a42caa088335868342b25a834962cbc0d08a2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Max Kellermann Date: Sat, 18 Jan 2014 16:36:42 +0100 Subject: neighbor: new subsystem to detect file servers on the local network This commit adds the NeighborPlugin API which can be used to detect nearby file servers that can be used by input plugins. This list of servers is exported using the new "listneighbors" command. The idle even "neighbor" notifies interested clients when a new neighbor is found or an existing one is lost. There's a lot missing currently: protocol&user documentation, and a way to "mount" remote servers into the music database. Obviously, some code from the UPnP database plugin can be moved to a neighbor plugin. --- NEWS | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) (limited to 'NEWS') diff --git a/NEWS b/NEWS index 71ab008b3..2c22aae99 100644 --- a/NEWS +++ b/NEWS @@ -2,6 +2,7 @@ ver 0.19 (not yet released) * protocol - new commands "addtagid", "cleartagid" - "lsinfo" and "readcomments" allowed for remote files + - "listneighbors" lists file servers on the local network * database - proxy: forward "idle" events - proxy: copy "Last-Modified" from remote directories -- cgit v1.2.3
