Watchpup

Creates a lightweight web server that returns only the current player count, nothing else.

• Default bind address: 0.0.0.0
• Default port: 57475

For use with a watchdog service or other monitoring tools.

This is used by Jimmie’s Minecraft OnDemand fork which provides more reliable monitoring than the original.
