node-GameDig - Game Server Query Library
2014-02-01 09:39:06 +01:00

2014-02-03 01:16:12 +01:00
node-GameDig is a game server query library, capable of querying for the status of
nearly any game or voice server. If a server makes its status publically available,
GameDig can fetch it for you.
GameDig is available as a node.js module, as well as a
[command line executable](#usage-from-command-line).

### Input Parameters
* **type**: One of the game IDs listed in the game list below
2013-07-12 11:18:55 +02:00
* **host**
2013-07-12 11:20:17 +02:00
* **port**: (optional) Uses the protocol default if not set
2013-07-12 11:23:40 +02:00
* **notes**: (optional) Passed through to output
2013-07-12 11:18:55 +02:00
###Callback Function
2013-07-12 11:15:11 +02:00
The callback function is "guaranteed" to be called exactly once.
2013-07-10 12:06:44 +02:00
If an error occurs, the returned object will contain an "error" key, indicating the issue.
If the error key exists, it should be assumed that the game server is offline or unreachable.
2013-07-12 11:12:55 +02:00
Otherwise, the returned object is guaranteed to contain the following keys:
2013-07-10 12:02:48 +02:00
2013-07-12 15:29:25 +02:00
**Stable, always present:**
2013-07-12 15:33:57 +02:00
2013-07-12 11:18:55 +02:00
* **name**
* **map**
* **password**: Boolean
* **maxplayers**
2013-07-12 15:29:25 +02:00
* **players**: (array of objects) Each object **may** contain name, ping, score, team, address
* **bots**: Same schema as players
2013-07-12 11:18:55 +02:00
* **notes**: Passed through from the input
2013-07-12 15:29:25 +02:00
**Unstable, not guaranteed:**
2013-07-12 15:33:57 +02:00
2013-07-12 15:29:25 +02:00
* **raw**: Contains all information received from the server
2013-07-12 11:18:55 +02:00
* **query**: Details about the query performed
2013-07-11 11:13:39 +02:00
It can usually be assumed that the number of players online is equal to the length of the players array.
Some servers may return an additional player count number, which may be present in the unstable raw object.

### Games with Additional Notes
#### Minecraft
Some minecraft servers may not respond to a typical status query. If this is the case, try using the
'minecraftping' server type instead, which uses a less accurate but more reliable solution.
2014-02-02 14:20:36 +01:00
#### Mumble
For full query results from Mumble, you must be running the
[GTmurmur plugin](http://www.gametracker.com/downloads/gtmurmurplugin.php).
If you do not wish to run the plugin, or do not require details such as channel and user lists,
you can use the 'mumbleping' server type instead, which uses a less accurate but more reliable solution
2014-02-01 09:38:40 +01:00
#### Nadeo (ShootMania / TrackMania / etc)
The server must have xmlrpc enabled, and you must pass the xmlrpc port to GameDig, not the connection port.
You must have a user account on the server with access level User or higher.
2014-02-01 09:38:40 +01:00
Pass the login into to GameDig with the additional options: login, password
#### Terraria
Requires tshock server mod, and a REST user token, which can be passed to GameDig with the
additional option: token
#### Separate Query Port
Games with this note use a query port which is usually not the same as the game's connection port.
Usually, no action will be required from you. The 'port' option you pass GameDig should be the game's
connection port. GameDig will attempt to calculate the query port automatically. If the query still fails,
you may need to pass the 'port_query' option to GameDig as well, indicating the separate query port.
Usage from Command Line
---
2013-10-12 08:43:16 +02:00
Want to integrate server queries from a batch script or other programming language?
You'll still need npm to install gamedig:
```shell
npm install gamedig -g
2013-10-12 08:43:16 +02:00
```
After installing gamedig globally, you can call gamedig via the command line
using the same parameters mentioned in the API above:
```shell
gamedig --type minecraft --host mc.example.com --port 11234
2013-10-12 08:43:16 +02:00
```
The output of the command will be in JSON format.
