A game query library on steroids written for Java. It's an implementation of Valve's source Query, Rcon, Master and Steam Web API protocols. Built on top of Netty
- Simple and easy to use API.
- All operations are asynchronous. Every request returns a CompletableFuture
- It's fast and capable of handling large transactions.
- Resource efficient
- Uses netty's off-heap pooled direct buffers (Helps reduce GC pressure for high volume/throughput transactions)
- Built-in thread and connection pooling support. Takes advantage of netty's event loop model.
- Makes use of native transports (if available) for increased performance (e.g. epoll, kqueue). Java's NIO is used by default.
- Highly Configurable. Clients can be configured to satisfy your requirements (e.g. providing a custom executor, adjusting rate limit parameters, selecting connection pool strategy etc.)
- Throws meaningful exceptions. For example, in RCON, A
MaxAttemptsReachedExceptionwill be thrown instead of aReadTimeoutException(or aChannelClosedException) to indicate that the maximum number of login attempts has been reached. - Transactions are Failsafe (except web api). Resilience policies have been implemented to guarantee the delivery and receipt of queries. Below are the policies available by default.
- Retry Policy: A failed query is re-attempted until a response has either been received or the maximum number attempts has been reached.
- Rate Limiter Policy: This prevents overloading the servers by sending requests too fast causing the requests to timeout due to rate limits being exceeded.
- Circuit Breaker Policy: When certain number of failures reach the threshold, the library will transition to an "OPEN" state, temporarily rejecting new requests.
For more examples, please refer to the site docs.
Blocking Queries
public class BlockingQueryExample {
//Use a custom executor. This is not really necessary as the library
//provides it's own default executor, this only serves an example.
ExecutorService customExecutor = Executors.newCachedThreadPool();
public static void main(String[] args) {
// - Change rate limiting method to BURST
// - Used a custom executor for query client. We are responsible for shutting down this executor, not the library.
SourceQueryOptions queryOptions = SourceQueryOptions.builder()
.option(FailsafeOptions.FAILSAFE_RATELIMIT_TYPE, RateLimitType.BURST)
.option(GeneralOptions.THREAD_EXECUTOR_SERVICE, customExecutor)
.build();
//You can instantiate the client from the try-with block as it implements the java.io.Closeable interface
try (SourceQueryClient client = new SourceQueryClient(queryOptions)) {
InetSocketAddress address = new InetSocketAddress("192.168.60.1", 27016);
SourceServer info = client.getInfo(address).join().getResult();
System.out.printf("INFO: %s\n", info);
}
}
}Non-Blocking Queries
import java.util.concurrent.CompletableFuture;
import java.util.concurrent.CountDownLatch;
public class NonBlockingQueryExample {
//Use a custom executor. This is not required as the library
//provides it's own default global executor shared across all clients, this only serves an example on how you can provide your own.
ExecutorService customExecutor = Executors.newCachedThreadPool();
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
//Example configuration
// - Enabled rate limiting, so we don't send too fast
// - Change rate limiting type to SMOOTH (Two available types SMOOTH and BURST)
// - Used a custom executor for query client. We are responsible for shutting down this executor, not the library.
SourceQueryOptions queryOptions = SourceQueryOptions.builder()
.option(FailsafeOptions.FAILSAFE_RATELIMIT_TYPE, RateLimitType.SMOOTH)
.option(GeneralOptions.THREAD_EXECUTOR_SERVICE, customExecutor)
.build();
//create a countdown latch with value of 1 since we are only expecting to receive 1 result
CountDownLatch latch = new CountDownLatch(1);
//Instantiate the client (constructor argument is optional)
try (SourceQueryClient client = new SourceQueryClient(queryOptions)) {
//Create a user defined object which serves as an aggregate where all the resulting data will be stored
SourceQueryAggregate result = new SourceQueryAggregate(address);
CompletableFuture<SourceQueryInfoResponse> infoFuture = client.getInfo(address);
//Check if the future is complete
if (infoFuture.isDone()) {
try {
SourceQueryInfoResponse response = infoFuture.getNow(null);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace(System.err);
} finally {
latch.countDown();
}
}
//If not, register a callback to handle future response
else {
infoFuture.whenComplete(new BiConsumer<SourceQueryInfoResponse, Throwable>() {
@Override
public void accept(SourceQueryInfoResponse response, Throwable error) {
try {
if (error != null) {
throw new CompletionException(error);
}
assert response != null;
System.out.printf("INFO: %s\n", response.getResult());
} finally {
latch.countDown();
}
}
});
}
//REMEMBER: Since we are executing an asynchronous operation,
// we need to wait until we have received a response from the server,
// otherwise the program might abruptly terminate.
latch.await();
}
}
}A slightly advanced example demonstrating how to combine all three asynchronous queries into one call. For more advanced examples (e.g. sending requests by batch, using synchronization barriers etc), please check out the examples module in the project source.

CompletableFuture<SourceQueryAggregate> resultFuture = CompletableFuture.completedFuture(result)
.thenCombine(client.getInfo(address).handle(result.ofType(SourceQueryType.INFO)), Functions::selectFirst)
.thenCombine(client.getPlayers(address).handle(result.ofType(SourceQueryType.PLAYERS)), Functions::selectFirst)
.thenCombine(client.getRules(address).handle(result.ofType(SourceQueryType.RULES)), Functions::selectFirst);
//Display result
resultFuture.whenComplete(new BiConsumer<SourceQueryAggregate, Throwable>() {
@Override

}
log.info("INFO: {}, PLAYERS: {}, RULES: {}", result.getInfo(), result.getPlayers(), result.getRules());
}
});

Retry Feature
- A batch of 5000 requests were sent to a single instance and
changelevelwas issued, triggering active connections to get dropped by the remote server. The failed requests were retried and recovers successfully. All futures transitioned to a completed state.

Circuit Breaker (Fail-fast)
- A batch of 5000 requests were sent to a single instance. In the middle of the operation, the server was restarted triggering all remaining futures to timeout, resulting with the internal circuit breaker to transition in
OPENstate.
