The Lua code supports mDNS service publishing. However, I need service discovery. I am running an MQTT client on the ESP and I want to look up the local MQTT broker via mDNS. Does anyone know if there has been any work on support for mDNS service browsers in Lua? I have seen nothing.

If not, I guess I could move over to the Arduino libraries, but I really would like to stick with Lua.

Did you check the NodeMCU issues list on GitHub? I think this is what you're after: https://github.com/nodemcu/nodemcu-firmware/issues/1723

k, thanks!

It does look like someone did create what is needed, at least for a cursory look at their code. Looks like I may need to set up the ability to compile a firmware image to get it in the code. I looked for the bonjour code in the github source for nodecmu and found nothing.
