# Minecraft Server Monitoring
|
|
|
|
Quickly check Minecraft server status without installing any external dependencies.
|
|
|
|
## Quick Check
|
|
|
|
Check if a server is online:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
python3 ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/public/minecraft-monitor/scripts/minecraft-status.py corejourney.org
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
🟢 corejourney.org:25565 - ONLINE (45ms)
|
|
Version: 1.20.4
|
|
Players: 3/20
|
|
Online: Steve, Alex, CreeperHunter
|
|
MOTD: Welcome to Core Journey!
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
python3 ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/public/minecraft-monitor/scripts/minecraft-status.py <host[:port]> [timeout]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- **host**: Server hostname or IP address (e.g., `corejourney.org`, `192.168.1.10`)
|
|
- **port**: Optional, defaults to `25565`
|
|
- **timeout**: Optional connection timeout in seconds (default: 5)
|
|
|
|
### Examples
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Check default port
|
|
python3 ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/public/minecraft-monitor/scripts/minecraft-status.py corejourney.org
|
|
|
|
# Check custom port
|
|
python3 ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/public/minecraft-monitor/scripts/minecraft-status.py corejourney.org:25566
|
|
|
|
# Check IP with longer timeout
|
|
python3 ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/public/minecraft-monitor/scripts/minecraft-status.py 192.168.1.10 10
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Output
|
|
|
|
**Online server:**
|
|
- 🟢 Green (good ping) / 🟡 Yellow (moderate) / 🟠 Orange (slow)
|
|
- Server address and port
|
|
- Response time in milliseconds
|
|
- Minecraft version
|
|
- Current/maximum player count
|
|
- List of online players (up to 5 shown)
|
|
- Server MOTD (message of the day)
|
|
|
|
**Offline server:**
|
|
- 🔴 Red indicator
|
|
- Error message (timeout, connection refused, etc.)
|
|
|
|
## What's Being Monitored
|
|
|
|
- ✅ Online/offline status
|
|
- ✅ Player count (current/max)
|
|
- ✅ Response time/latency
|
|
- ✅ Server version
|
|
- ✅ Online player list (if available)
|
|
- ✅ Server MOTD
|
|
|
|
## Notes
|
|
|
|
- Uses Minecraft Server List Ping (SLP) protocol - works with all modern Minecraft servers
|
|
- No server-side plugins or RCON access required
|
|
- Exit code 0 if online, 1 if offline (useful for scripts/automation)
|
|
- SRV records are not automatically resolved - use the actual server address
|
|
|
|
## Integration Ideas
|
|
|
|
- Add to a cron job for periodic health checks
|
|
- Wrap in a monitoring script that alerts if server goes offline
|
|
- Use in automation pipelines that depend on server availability
|
|
- Create a dashboard showing server status history |
