Examples

Service Registration

'use strict';

var Zoologist               = require('zoologist').Zoologist;
var ServiceInstanceBuilder  = require('zoologist').ServiceInstanceBuilder;
var ServiceDiscoveryBuilder = require('zoologist').ServiceDiscoveryBuilder;

// Client
var zoologistClient = Zoologist.newClient('127.0.0.1:2181');

// Start the client (connect to ZooKeeper)
zoologistClient.start();

// Service Instance
var serviceInstance = ServiceInstanceBuilder
                        .builder()
                        .address('127.0.0.1')
