[Locomotive-users] locomotive & bonjour

[Niko Dittmann]

The apps running in Locomotive would appear automagically in the  
Safari bonjour menu (Bookmark -> Bounjour ; you need to activate  
Bonjour bookmarks in the bookmarks prefs).

I know you can open your local Safari with a running Locomotive  
application.

But with Bonjour our collegues could access running apps without us  
telling them "just enter 192.168.0.xxx:30yy in your browser".  And  
with Bonjour for Windows installed we could conviniently access rails  
apps from IE in Parallels.

Apache supports this with mod_rendezvous and Tomcat with  
jRendezvous.  Having it in Locomotive would be nice.  And oh so OSX- 
ish. :D

You can try it yourself by entering a line like this in your Apache  
httpd.conf:

RegisterResource MyApache /

and voilà "MyApache" appear in Safaris Bonjour menu.


Best, Niko.


PS: Rendezvouz changed its name into Bonjour some time ago due to  
naming conficts.  I guess the old name just sticks to the Apache and  
the Tomcat module.
