Not able to connect with mDNS #61

I had it working on an old config, now I can't get homebridge to connect to wled with an mDNS instead of an IP address. Here's my config, which works when I put in the IP.

 "platform": "WLED",
 "wleds": [
     {
         "name": "Light Bars",
         "host": "http://wled-lightbars.local",
         "log": false
     }
 ]

I've tried without the "http://" since the IP doesn't need it and that didn't work either. there's also nothing in the documentation about mDNS

my mistake, my docker and mDNS config was wrong. in case someone else has this issue, the mDNS configuration issue is solved here: https://github.com/homebridge/homebridge/issues/1957 the issue I had with docker was not using "netowork_mode: host" (or at least not routing my network well without using the host network)
