[WEB] Server status php script

Hello.

Since the dedicated servers appearance, many server-holders ask question - how to get dynamic monitoring of the server?
Here is the answer https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/39747272/steamStatus.rar
It's php script, 99.9% based on steam-condenser script https://github.com/koraktor/steam-condenser

I've deleted all Monolog dependencies and make it more comfortable to access data from script. All other things belongs to Sebastian Staudt.

For example you have to change ip and port at monitor.php script and launch it.
You can view the example here https://95.31.8.128/test/monitor.php Here I made light widget for websites or something.

Also you can look at my signature, image dynamically rendered from script info.

Special thanks to Sebastian Staudt for this great API!

 

Nice work, would love to create my own one soon when I have my dedicated server running, thanks for the example

 

Great work i love it was testing it out on my server looks good but im missing section to load player list list yours just tell list of of like 50/100 but no player list like yours....


Players:
#0 "wanderermg", Score: 0, Time: 41221.4296875
#0 "avschar", Score: 0, Time: 2091.4287109375
#0 "Fiber!!", Score: 0, Time: 1934.7554931641
#0 "ßatuhan.soran™", Score: 0, Time: 1829.0093994141

 

Code:

echo $server;

Use this in code. Also you could check players array

Code:

$server->playerHash

 

Little update
I made a real-time updating picture (see my signature). It's simply continuous gif image, what frames are streamed in real time by my server. This image have no size, in fact it's unlimited.
If you are interested in ASP.NET coding and you want something like that - pm me, I'll share the code.

 

Steam's server browser updates, its not RT, but close.

 

Status doesn't use steam browser at all. It request game server directly, with steam protocol. So it is RT

 

So here's a question.

Where I have my server requiring a Steam Group ID, I'm trying to figure out where to insert that, as I think that's why I get no output (server returns nothing).

If you have a look at lostinspace.tankology.net/monitor.php you will see what I mean.

Thoughts ?

 

Would be better to set the image to refresh every 10 minutes instead of every second? My page just keeps loading and loading because of it...

 

Edited the script somewhat
If your forum (websites usually dont have this problem) doesnt cache like a XenForo forum does, you can use a simpel link to the .php page


Used the download link. File below is monitor.php file. Image used is this one

Well, it's realtime GIF image, to simply show the abilities Of course I can do a cached image, that refresh every 10+ minutes.
Also thanks for your php image generator via this library! Good job!

 

Thnx for the praise
Will update the script soon and make it a little neater so you only need to fill in server ip + port once
This image updates everytime you refresh the page since you use the img tags on a .php link.

Somehow my script stopped working doh...

 

Never mind, seems 127.0.0.1 wasnt working anymore

 

Hm... As for me I'm using my local home-network address. Like steam observer operates with...

 

I am trying to get this to work - But im feeling like a noob here..
Trouble is it always shows as offline for my server..
I have my main website hosting the script.

I have my separate dedicated server running the actual game.

I've added the ip/port of my game server into monitor.php -
Script loads but all i ever get back is "offline" so what am i missing here ?

--

Ok further progress; forgot a firewall setting - now I get:
Warning: socket_send() [function.socket-send]: unable to write to socket [1]: Operation not permitted in /home/www/our-game.net/spaceengineers/steamStatus/Socket.php on line 163
Offline

I am guessing that you require sockets for php enabled.. correct me if I am wrong..

 

Yes, you are right. You should ask your hoster to enable sockets in php.

As you guessed by my signature suddenly working we got it working on a local server.. then customized it.
Looks like my usual host is just on crack or something and probably blocks the required protocols.
Thanks for the great script.

 

First off, thanks for the script. So far, it has been incredibly useful.

I am running into one issue, though. The number of players appears to be showing up fine, but I can't seem to get any play information (I mainly just want a list of logged in players). The var_dump has this.

Code:

  ["playerHash"]=>NULL

Any reason why this is coming back null?

 

First off, thanks for the script. It seems to work wonderfully.

One problem, though. It seems like ["playerHash"] is coming back null. Do you have any idea why that might be happening? I'm just trying to get a list of players.

 

I have the same problem.
Did someone figured this out?

 

Anyone have a working website with this running? Would love to see it in action before I got on a multi-day headache to implement it into a wordpress site.

 

I do, but it's for friends only. I dont want to post the link in public and i can't start a private conversation with you on the forum. It gives me an error.

btw.: It's working with ME as well. But still not possible to query player names.

 

Can send me a steam message Click the owl below my name on left. Would love to see how it works, currently we are using those banners from space-engineers.com.. www.aphoticowl.com ( it's a WIP site so pardon it's messiness lol ) Would love to be able to show players in server in the server tab on main page. Does it work in that context?

 

No. For some reason player names can't be queried with the current SE version.

 

I'm getting this PHP config. error when executing.

Code:

Warning: socket_select() [function.socket-select]: You MUST recompile PHP with a larger value of FD_SETSIZE.
It is set to 1024, but you have descriptors numbered at least as high as 1855.
--enable-fd-setsize=2048 is recommended, but you may want to set it to equal the maximum number of open files supported by your system, in order to avoid seeing this error again at a later date.
in /home/~/Socket.php on line 147

Tech support of my web host told me it's not possible for them to adjust that default value for their shared hosting servers. :/
But their Virtual Private Server (VPS) does have this ability. -.-
