Timofey Gelazoniya a1b999ca4e refactor: introduce typescript for static type checking
We use JSDoc for documentation, but these annotations
were not being validated. This meant that type information
could become outdated or incorrect without any warning.

This commit introduces the TypeScript compiler (`tsc`) as a static
analysis tool to leverage our existing JSDoc comments.

To support this, JSDoc annotations across the codebase have been
improved for accuracy. Additionally, the `varint` module now uses a
custom `VarIntError` class for better type inference and error handling.
A new `typecheck` script has been added to `package.json` to run this
validation.

mineping

This JavaScript library provides an implementation of the Minecraft server ping protocol. It allows you to gather information about a Minecraft server, such as the MOTD, current online players, server icon (Java Edition only), and more.

Requirements

Node.js 14 or newer is required

Install

To install mineping, simply run the following command:

npm i @minescope/mineping

To install beta version (if available), run: npm i @minescope/mineping@next

Loading and configuration the module

ES Modules (ESM)

If you are using ES Modules, you can import the library like this:

import { pingJava, pingBedrock } from "@minescope/mineping";

CommonJS

mineping is an ESM-only module — you are not able to import it with require(). If you cannot switch to ESM, you can use the async import() function from CommonJS to load mineping asynchronously:

const pingJava = (...args) =>
	import("@minescope/mineping").then((module) => module.pingJava(...args));
const pingBedrock = (...args) =>
	import("@minescope/mineping").then((module) => module.pingBedrock(...args));

Usage

Ping a Java server with default options:

import { pingJava } from "@minescope/mineping";

const data = await pingJava("mc.hypixel.net");
console.log(data);

Ping a Bedrock server with custom options:

import { pingBedrock } from "@minescope/mineping";

const data = await pingBedrock("mco.mineplex.com", {
	port: 19132,
	timeout: 500,
});
console.log(data);

More complex example can be found in the example folder!
