bananajour under ubuntu jaunty

[Glen Maddern]

Trying to get it running atm, but the dnssd gem is failing to build
with 'can't find rendezvous library'. From my recollection, there's
one cross-platform bonjour gem and dnssd isn't it, or something?

However, someone apparently has got this working, anyone know how? Is
there a fork of bananajour that depends on a different bonjour gem?

Or is there a way to build dnssd under linux? My google-fu is failing
so far.

Cheers,

DNSSD 0.7.1 looks for Apple's Bonjour library and if it can't find that it looks for the Avahi implementation. If you have Avahi installed, you *should* be all good. If you don't, install/update Avahi and see what that gets you.

There is another ruby gem called 'net-mdns' that historically works better on Linux, but that'll require some refactoring of Bananajour to get it working.

aha!

sudo apt-get install libavahi-compat-libdnssd-dev

was all I needed, in the end (apart from my own gem fails and not having libopenssl-ruby1.8). Running now...

awesome, relatively straight-forward. Have updated the Readme with
Ubuntu instructions.

Ok except it doesn't work :/

This is my current state, http://www.ubuntu-pics.de/bild/16967/screenshot_003_gqDB9u.png

These git repos aren't clones of eachother, but they're both derived from a git-svn clone. The bit that concerns me is the 'no other bananas' bit on my version? Maybe dnssd isn't working after all?

Is there an easy way to test it through irb?

Have you git pushed to each dukejour and git-admo? It show at least yourself in the list there.

Get bananajour running, then manually fire up a Bonjour browser and see if it can find the local bananajour:

$ irb -rrubygems -rbananajour

> b = Bananajour::Bonjour::BananajourBrowser.new

> b.bananajours

Oh, and nice local computer name ;)

any luck Glen? Do you have a bonjour browsing app you could use to check out if anything is being advertised on the network?
