zomboid-rcon 1.0.0

Python class for interacting with Project Zomboid servers using RCON

Zomboid-rcon: Python RCON for Project Zomboid Servers

Version: 1.0.0

Zomboid-rcon enables you to easily communicate with your Project Zomboid servers via RCON. With zomboid-rcon, you can send commands to your server, manage players, and more, all from within your Python script.

Installation

To get started, simply install zomboid-rcon using pip:

pip install zomboid-rcon

• Homepage
• GitHub Repo
• Pypi Package

Usage

Using zomboid-rcon is easy. Here's a basic example:

from zomboid_rcon import ZomboidRCON

if __name__ == "__main__":
    pz = ZomboidRCON(ip='localhost', port=12345, password='myPassword')
    command = pz.serverMsg("You dead yet?")
    print(command.response)

This example connects to a server running on your local machine and sends the message "You dead yet?".

Zomboid-rcon provides several built-in methods for common server management tasks, such as getting a list of connected players:

from zomboid_rcon import ZomboidRCON

if __name__ == "__main__":
    pz = ZomboidRCON(ip='localhost', port=12345, password='myPassword')
    print(pz.players().response)

This example prints a list of all players currently connected to the server.

Known Issues

Please note that zomboid-rcon uses the timeout_decorator package, which is currently only compatible with Unix/Linux systems. As a result, timeouts may cause errors on Windows machines. We are actively working on finding an alternative solution for Windows users.
