[cod] Server status

[Kendokan]

No, you can't query a TCP port, it must be the UDP port your server is
running on. Below is a Perl script I use for updating my server status to
my web site. I'm sure there are other query scripts around written in PHP
if you prefer to use that instead, and my script is customized to my site
so you will have to tweak the output section to suit your needs. You can
see it in action at http://amateur-hour.net near the top of the screen. I
have it run from a cron entry like:

*/1 * * * * /path/to/this/script.pl -s your.server.ip > /path/to/status.html

The script is:

#!/usr/bin/env perl

use strict;
use IO::Socket;
use Getopt::Long;

# Initialize settings and results hashes.
my(%Settings,%Info);

# Get command-line options
GetOptions (
        'server|s=s'            => \$Settings{ServerIP},
        'port|p=i'              => \$Settings{ServerPort},
        'link|l=s'              => \$Settings{Link},
        'help|h'                => \$Settings{Help}
);

# How many seconds before we timeout the query?
$Settings{Timeout} = 2;

# How many times should we retry the query before giving up?
$Settings{RetryCount} = 3;

# This status command if for Call of Duty servers.
$Settings{StatusCmd} = "ÿÿÿÿgetinfo\x00";

# Default to port 28960 if a port is not specified.
$Settings{ServerPort} = "28960" unless $Settings{ServerPort};

# If user asks for help, show the help text.
if ($Settings{Help}) { &PrintHelp }

# If we got an IP address and port from the command-line, query.
Otherwise, print the help text.
if ($Settings{ServerIP} && $Settings{ServerPort}) {
        &GetStatus;
        &ParseStatus;
} else {
        &PrintHelp;
}

# This section sends the status command and returns the raw result.
sub GetStatus {
        ++$Settings{LoopCount};

        my $Socket = new IO::Socket::INET (
                Proto           => "udp",
                PeerAddr        => $Settings{ServerIP},
                PeerPort        => $Settings{ServerPort},
        );

        if ($Socket) {
                open (ERROR, ">/dev/null") or die $!;
                STDERR->fdopen(\*ERROR, "w") or die $!;
                $Socket->send($Settings{StatusCmd}) or next;
                $SIG{ALRM} = \&Timeout;

                eval {
                        alarm ($Settings{Timeout});
                        $Socket->recv($Info{Data},1024) or next;
                        alarm (0);
                        close $Socket;
                }

        } else {

                close $Socket;

        }
}
