PHP library to request RCON for Minecraft servers

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

### Using Composer

[](#using-composer)

This Rcon library may be installed by issuing the following command:

```
$ composer require dev-lancer/minecraft-rcon
```

Example
-------

[](#example)

For this script to work, rcon must be enabled on the server, by setting `enable-rcon=true` in the server's `server.properties` file. A password must also be set, and provided in the script.

```
$host = 'some.minecraftserver.com'; // Server host name or IP
$port = 25575;                      // Port rcon is listening on
$password = 'server-rcon-password'; // rcon.password setting set in server.properties
$timeout = 3;                       // How long to timeout.

use DevLancer\MinecraftRcon;

$rcon = new Rcon($host, $port, $password, $timeout);

if ($rcon->connect()) {
    if ($rcon->sendCommand("say Hello World!") === false) {
        //bad request
    } else {
        echo $rcon->getResponse(); //success
    }
} else {
    echo $rcon->getResponse(); //error
}
```
