hyperswarm

Hyperswarm is an experimental mdns swarm with a shared distributed state.

It relies heavily on multicast-dns and hyperemitter.

Install

npm install --save hyperswarm

Use

var hswarm = require('hyperswarm')

// ComputerA
var a = hswarm('superswarm')

// ComputerB on the same network
var b = hswarm('superswarm')

// A little while later...
a.setState({ volume : 5 })
setTimeout(function() {
    b.state.get('volume') // => 5
},100)

// Computer C on the same network, even more later...
var c = hswarm('superswarm')
setTimeout(function() {
    c.state.get('volume') // => 5
},100)

// Cleanup
a.close()
b.close()
c.close()
