SSDP implementation for Squeak/Pharo Smalltalk
# SSDP An [SSDP](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_Service_Discovery_Protocol) (Simple Service Discovery Protocol) implementation for Squeak/Pharo Smalltalk. To load: ```smalltalk Metacello new baseline: 'SSDP'; repository: 'github://rydier/SSDP/repository'; load. ``` Although SSDP is the underlying discovery protocol used by uPnP, it was never really fully standardized. This implementation was based on http://quimby.gnus.org/internet-drafts/draft-cai-ssdp-v1-02.txt , minus the proxy functionality, which was dropped in a [later draft version](http://quimby.gnus.org/internet-drafts/draft-cai-ssdp-v1-03.txt). So in essence, the latest version of the draft is what is implemented. The later version contains much expanded sections on design rationales, which makes it a much better read for those who want to learn what a discovery protocol is all about and the tradeoffs involved, but with much less information density from the point of view of someone implementing the protocol. # Example usage SSDP Server: ```smalltalk |server| server := SSDPServer v4SiteLocal. server offerServiceType: 'ssdp:testService' atLocation: 'http:/test.local/'. server shutDown. ``` SSDP Client: ```smalltalk |client| client := SSDPClient v4SiteLocal. client filter: 'ssdp:all' whenAvailable: [ :resource | resource printOn: Transcript. 'is available' printOn: Transcript. Transcript nextPut: Character cr. ] whenUnavailable: [ :resource | resource printOn: Transcript. 'is becoming unavailable' printOn: Transcript. Transcript nextPut: Character cr. ]. ``` More detailed documentation can be found in the class comments. If you read the later draft, and discover something is not in accordance, please open an issue or send a pull request. If you implement a better way of discovering available local interfaces (which is the worst part of the code as is) to start SSDP listeners on, I'd especially appreciate to be notified!
