skuIIs/bf-rcon

BF4 RCon in pure JavaScript

Installation

You can use npm or yarn to install this package into your project

npm install bf4rcon
yarn add bf4rcon

Usage

const { BFrcon } = require('bf4rcon')

async function init () {
  const rcon = new BFrcon()

  // Connects to server(s), can be an object or an array of objects

  // *** Example for a single server ***
  const server = await rcon.connect({
    host: '127.0.0.1',
    port: 47200,
    password: 'password'
  })

  server.on('ready', async function () {
    console.log('Server: ' + this.server_id + ' added to listener!')

    // Run some command
    const players = await this.listPlayers()
    console.log(players)

    // Listen for some event
    this.on('player.onAuthenticated', function (player) {
      console.log(player)
    })
  }.bind(server))

  // *** Example for a multiple servers ***
  const servers = await rcon.connect([
    {
      host: '127.0.0.1',
      port: 47200,
      password: 'password'
    },
    {
      host: '127.0.0.1',
      port: 47201,
      password: 'password'
    },
  ])

  for (var i = 0, len = servers.length; i < len; i++) {
    servers[i].on('ready', async function () {
      console.log('Server: ' + this.server_id + ' added to listener!')

      // Run some command
      const players = await this.listPlayers()
      console.log(players)

      // Listen for some event
      this.on('player.onAuthenticated', function (player) {
        console.log(player)
      })
    }.bind(servers[i]))
  }
}

init()

Commands

After connecting to a server(s) you can use the exec function to execute a command, or use the built-in API for commands made with promises. See ./services/commands/* for available commands.

...
  this.exec('serverInfo', function (error, response) {
    if (error) return reject(error)
    // Do something with response. Note here you must parse things yourself!
  })
...

Is the same as:

...
  const info = await this.serverInfo()
  // Already parsed for you!
  console.log(info)
...

Events

Listen for events from the server is simple. After connecting to the server(s) just use a standard on listener.

  this.on('player.onChat', function (chat) {
    console.log(chat)
  })

Caveats

• This has only been tested for BF4. This could work for BF3 or BFH.

• This package is meant for long-running processes and also doesn't handle reconnecting after disconnects or errors. You must handle those on your own. Example:

  const config = {
    host: '127.0.0.1',
    port: 47200,
    password: 'password'
  }

  // Initial connection
  const server = await rcon.connect(config)

  server.on('ready', async function () {
    // Code
  }.bind(server))

  // Socket connection was ended
  server.on('end', function () {
    // Reconnect!
    server = await rcon.connect(config)
  })

• If you want to issue a command on a server and exit then it can be done, you just have to connect, issue the command after the connection is ready, and then manually disconnect. Example:

  const server = await rcon.connect({
    host: '127.0.0.1',
    port: 47200,
    password: 'password'
  })

  server.on('ready', async function () {

    // Run some command
    const players = await this.listPlayers()
    console.log(players)

    // Disconnect
    this.disconnect()
  }.bind(server))
