Usage

The following flags are supported.

❯ upnpinfo --help
Usage: upnpinfo [OPTIONS] [DEVICE]

  Retrieves UPnP device information from the local network.

  Defaults to showing a summary of all devices found on the local network
  using UPnP discovery. Specify an optional DEVICE (a UPnP friendly name, UDN,
  or location URL) to retrieve detailed information on that device.

Options:
  -t, --type TYPE  Show just the given UPnP device type (e.g. MediaRenderer).
  --timeout SECS   UPnP discovery timeout (seconds).  [default: 2]
  --no-color       Disable color.
  --json           Display results as JSON.
  --help           Show this message and exit.

Ideas

It would be cool if upnpinfo had an interactive mode, allowing for browsing of devices and device services, and supporting manual action invocation.
