NAME
       avahi-publish-service - Register an mDNS/DNS-SD service or host name or address mapping using the Avahi daemon

SYNOPSIS
       avahi-publish -s [options] name service-type port [TXT data ...]

       avahi-publish-service [options] name service-type port [TXT data ...]

       avahi-publish -a [options] host name address

       avahi-publish-address [options] host name address

DESCRIPTION
       Register an mDNS/DNS-SD service or host name/address mapping using the Avahi daemon.

OPTIONS
       When  calling  in  service  registration mode, specify a DNS-SD service name (e.g. "Lennart's Files"), a service type
       (e.g. _http._tcp) and an IP port number for the service, optionally followed by any number of TXT record	 strings  on
       the  command line. When calling in address/host name registration mode specify a fully qualified host name and an ad‐
       dress (IPv4 or IPv6).

       -s | --service
	      Register a service. avahi-publish-service is equivalent to avahi-publish -s.

       -a | --address
	      Register an address/host name mapping. avahi-publish-address is equivalent to avahi-publish -a.

       -v | --verbose
	      Enable verbose mode.

       -H | --host= HOSTNAME
	      Specify a host name for this service, in case it doesn't reside on the local host. This host name needs to  be
	      fully qualified and resolvable using mDNS or unicast DNS.

       -d | --domain= DOMAIN
	      Publish the service in the specified domain. If omitted the Avahi daemon will publish it in its default domain
	      (usually .local).

       --subtype= SUBTYPE
	      Register	the  service  with an additional subtype in addition to the main type. DNS-SD subtypes have the form
	      _anon._sub._ftp._tcp, where _anon is the identifier of the subtype and _ftp._tcp is the  main  type.  You	 may
	      pass this option multiple times to register the service with multiple subtypes.

       -f | --no-fail
	      Don't  fail  if the daemon is not found running. Instead, wait until it appears. If it disconnects, try to re‐
	      connect.

       -h | --help
	      Show help

       -V | --version
	      Show version information.
