mcstatus
========
`mcstatus` provides an easy way to query Minecraft servers for any information they can expose.
It provides two modes of access, `query` and `ping`, the differences of which are listed below in usage.
Usage
-----
```python
from mcstatus import MinecraftServer
server = MinecraftServer("localhost", 25565)
# 'ping' is supported by all Minecraft servers that are version 1.7 or higher.
status, ping = server.ping_server()
print("The server has {0} players".format(status.players.online))
# 'query' has to be enabled in a servers' server.properties file.
# It may give more information than a ping, such as a full player list or mod information.
query = server.query_server()
print("The server has the following players online: %s" % (", ".join(query.players.names)))
```
Installation
------------
mcstatus is available on pypi, and can be installed trivially with:
