PHP-Minecraft-Query

A simple PHP class to connect to a minecraft server and get data about the server using the Query Protocol.

To connect to a server, Query must be activated on the minecraft server by setting enable-query=true in the server's server.properties.

This script connects to the server over UDP.

Examples

As a Regular PHP Library:

require_once('query.php');

$server = new Query('some.minecraftserver.com');
//or new Query('some.minecraftserver.com', $port, $timeout);

if ($server->connect())
{
  $info = $server->get_info();
  print_r($info);
}

As a CodeIgniter Library:

$settings = array(
  'host' => 'some.minecraftserver.com', //required
  'port' => 25565,  //optional
  'timeout' = 3,    //optional
);
$this->load->library('query', $settings);

$this->query->connect();

if ($this->query->is_connected()) {
  $info = $this->query->get_info();
  print_r($info);
}

get_info() result

Result is an array: here is the dump:

    [hostname] => Server MOTD
