node-GameDig - Game Server Query Library
---
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).

Usage from Node.js
---

```shell
npm install gamedig
```

Promise:
```javascript
var Gamedig = require('gamedig');
Gamedig.query({
	type: 'minecraft',
	host: 'mc.example.com'
}).then((state) => {
	console.log(state);
}).catch((error) => {
	console.log("Server is offline");
});
```

or Node.JS Callback:
```javascript
var Gamedig = require('gamedig');
Gamedig.query({
	type: 'minecraft',
	host: 'mc.example.com'
},
function(e,state) {
	if(e) console.log("Server is offline");
	else console.log(state);
});
```

> Is NPM out of date? If you're feeling lucky, you can install the latest code with
> ```shell
> npm install sonicsnes/node-gamedig
> ```

### Input Parameters

* **type**: One of the game IDs listed in the game list below
* **host**
* **port**: (optional) Uses the protocol default if not set
* **notes**: (optional) Passed through to output

### Return Value

The returned state object will contain the following keys:

**Stable, always present:**

* **name**
* **map**
* **password**: Boolean
* **maxplayers**
* **players**: (array of objects) Each object **may** contain name, ping, score, team, address
* **bots**: Same schema as players
* **notes**: Passed through from the input

**Unstable, not guaranteed:**

* **raw**: Contains all information received from the server
* **query**: Details about the query performed

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
---

### <a name="csgo"></a>Counter-Strike: Global Offensive
To receive a full player list response from CS:GO servers, the server must
have set the cvar: host_players_show 2

### DayZ
DayZ uses a query port that is separate from its main game port. The query port is usually
the game port PLUS 24714 or 24715. You may need to pass this port in as the 'port_query' request option.

### 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.

### 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

### 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.
Pass the login into to GameDig with the additional options: login, password

### <a name="teamspeak3"></a>TeamSpeak 3
For teamspeak 3 queries to work correctly, the following permissions must be available for the guest server group:

* Virtual Server
 * b_virtualserver_info_view
 * b_virtualserver_channel_list
 * b_virtualserver_client_list
* Group
 * b_virtualserver_servergroup_list
 * b_virtualserver_channelgroup_list

### 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
---

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
```

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
```

The output of the command will be in JSON format.
