mcstatusc

Minecraft Server Status thingy

Why?

I was previously using Dinnerbone's mcstatus but it was quite slow, especially in Termux on my phone, taking multiple seconds to simply get the status... so here we are, and now it's fast.

Usage

mcstatusc <hostname> [port] [protocol version]

Example

$ mcstatusc 127.0.0.1 | jq
{
  "description": {
    "text": "A Minecraft Server"
  },
  "players": {
    "max": 20,
    "online": 1,
    "sample": [
      {
        "id": "REDACTED",
        "name": "REDACTED"
      }
    ]
  },
  "version": {
    "name": "1.14.3",
    "protocol": 490
  }
}

jq, incase you don't have it already.
