# Bedrock Server Status

## Overview

There is only one method for retrieving the status of a Bedrock Edition Minecraft server, unlike the many methods used by Java Edition. The documentation below will show you how to use the method, and its return value.

## Methods

### `statusBedrock()`

This will retrieve the status of any version Bedrock Edition or Pocket Edition Minecraft server.

```javascript
const util = require('minecraft-server-util');

const options = {
    enableSRV: true // SRV record lookup
};

// The port and options arguments are optional, the
// port will default to 19132.
util.statusBedrock('localhost', 19132, options)
    .then((result) => console.log(result))
    .catch((error) => console.error(error));
```

```json
{
        "edition": "MCPE",
        "motd": {
                "raw": "§fDedicated Server\nBedrock level",
                "clean": "Dedicated Server\nBedrock level",
                "html": "<span><span style=\"color: #FFFFFF;\">Dedicated Server\nBedrock level</span></span>"
        },
