Query is a UDP protocol introduced in 1.9pre4 for the purpose of remote administration of a server. It looks a lot like the UT3 (or GameSpot) Query Protocol [1]

All data types are little-endian, with the exception of short

Server Config

   enable-query=true
   #query.port=25565

Client to Server Packet Format

Field name Field Type Notes
Magic byte, byte Always 0xFE 0xFD
Type byte 9 to handshake, 0 to stat
Session ID int32
Payload Varies See below

Server to Client Packet Format

Field name Field Type Notes
Type byte 9 for handshake, 0 for stat
Session ID int32
Payload Varies See below

Operations

Handshake

First, generate a session ID. It can be whatever you want.

Request

Send a request with an empty payload.

 FE FD 09 00 00 00 01

Response

The response payload will be a session token (note: different to a session id) encoded as a null-terminated string. You should convert it to an int32 and store it.

 09 00 00 00 01 39 35 31 33 33 30 37 00
                 9  5  1  3  3  0  7

Basic stat

Request

Your payload should be your session token, packed as an int32.

 FE FD 00 00 00 00 01 00 3A 0D 5F

Response

Five null-terminated strings make up the beginning of the payload. They correspond to (motd, gametype, map, numplayers, maxplayers)

After these strings, a 2-byte, big-endian short, giving the hostport

At the end is a final null-terminated string, giving the hostname

 63 31 32 37 2E 30 2E 30 | #127.0.0
 2E 31 00                | .1.

Full stat

Request

The request is the same as in a basic stat, except the payload must be padded to 8 bytes. Sending 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 at the end works.

 FE FD 00 00 00 00 01 00 3A 0D 5F 00 00 00 00

Response

The response is in two parts. You should split the response around the token \x00\x01player_\x00\x00.

The first part is a list of null-terminated strings, representing (key1, value1, key2, value2 ...)

The second part is another list of null-terminated strings, each representing a player.

At the very end there's a single null byte.
