.SH NAME
|
|
|
|
|
miniupnpc \- UPnP client library
|
|
|
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
The miniupnpc library implement the UPnP protocol defined
|
|
|
|
|
to dialog with Internet Gateway Devices. It also has
|
|
|
|
|
the ability to use data gathered by minissdpd(1) about
|
|
|
|
|
UPnP devices up on the network in order to skip the
|
|
|
|
|
long UPnP device discovery process.
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
At first, upnpDiscover(3) has to be used to discover UPnP IGD present
|
|
|
|
|
on the network. Then UPNP_GetValidIGD(3) to select the right one.
|
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, UPNP_GetIGDFromUrl(3) could be used to bypass discovery
|
|
|
|
|
process if the root description url of the device to use is known.
|
|
|
|
|
Then all the UPNP_* functions can be used, such as
|
|
|
|
|
UPNP_GetConnectionTypeInfo(3), UPNP_AddPortMapping(3), etc...
|
|
|
|
|
.SH "HEADER FILES"
|
|
|
|
|
.IP miniupnpc.h
|
|
|
|
|
That's the main header file for the miniupnpc library API.
|
|
|
|
|
It contains all the functions and structures related to device discovery.
|
|
|
|
|
.IP upnpcommands.h
|
|
|
|
|
This header file contain the UPnP IGD methods that are accessible
|
|
|
|
|
through the miniupnpc API. The name of the C functions are matching
|
|
|
|
|
the UPnP methods names. ie: GetGenericPortMappingEntry is
|
|
|
|
|
UPNP_GetGenericPortMappingEntry.

.SH "API FUNCTIONS"

|
|
|
.IP "struct UPNPDev * upnpDiscover(int delay, const char * multicastif, const char * minissdpdsock, int localport, int ipv6, int * error);"
|
2014-03-15 16:59:03 +00:00
|
|
|
execute the discovery process.
|
|
|
|
|
delay (in millisecond) is the maximum time for waiting any device response.
|
|
|
|
|
If available, device list will be obtained from MiniSSDPd.
|
|
|
|
|
Default path for minissdpd socket will be used if minissdpdsock argument is NULL.
|
|
|
|
|
If multicastif is not NULL, it will be used instead of the default multicast interface for sending SSDP discover packets.
|
2023-12-30 16:35:35 +00:00
|
|
|
If localport is set to UPNP_LOCAL_PORT_SAME(1) SSDP packets will be sent
|
|
|
|
|
from the source port 1900 (same as destination port), if set to
|
|
|
|
|
UPNP_LOCAL_PORT_ANY(0) system assign a source port, any other value will
|
|
|
|
|
be attempted as the source port.
|
2014-03-15 16:59:03 +00:00
|
|
|
If ipv6 is not 0, IPv6 is used instead of IPv4 for the discovery process.
|
|
|
|
|
.IP "void freeUPNPDevlist(struct UPNPDev * devlist);"
|
|
|
|
|
free the list returned by upnpDiscover().
|
|
|
|
|
.IP "int UPNP_GetValidIGD(struct UPNPDev * devlist, struct UPNPUrls * urls, struct IGDdatas * data, char * lanaddr, int lanaddrlen);"
|
|
|
|
|
browse the list of device returned by upnpDiscover(), find
|
|
|
|
|
a live UPnP internet gateway device and fill structures passed as arguments
|
2023-12-30 16:35:35 +00:00
|
|
|
with data used for UPNP methods invocation.
|
2014-03-15 16:59:03 +00:00
|
|
|
.IP "int UPNP_GetIGDFromUrl(const char * rootdescurl, struct UPNPUrls * urls, struct IGDdatas * data, char * lanaddr, int lanaddrlen);"
|
2023-12-30 16:35:35 +00:00
|
|
|
permit one to bypass the upnpDiscover() call if the xml root description
|
2014-03-15 16:59:03 +00:00
|
|
|
URL of the UPnP IGD is known.
|
|
|
|
|
Fill structures passed as arguments
|

|
with data used for UPNP methods invocation.
