# README
ts3web is a free and open-source web interface for TeamSpeak 3 instances.
The minimalistic approach of this application is intentional.
* Docker images available on [https://hub.docker.com/r/varakh/ts3web](https://hub.docker.com/r/varakh/ts3web)
* Sources are hosted on [https://git.myservermanager.com/varakh/ts3web](https://git.myservermanager.com/varakh/ts3web)
There are many TeamSpeak 3 web interfaces out. Why should I pick ts3web? Free, simple, stateless, easy to extend,
standard bootstrap theme.
The main git repository is hosted at _[https://git.myservermanager.com/varakh/ts3web](https://git.myservermanager.com/varakh/ts3web)_.
Other repositories are mirrors and pull requests, issues, and planning are managed there.
Contributions are very welcome!
## READ BEFORE USING
This web interface makes **heavy use of TeamSpeak 3 server query commands**. Please ensure that you _increase query
limits_ and whitelist the requesting IP address to a `whitelist.txt` when in a docker environment (see below).
Please read the next FAQ section carefully!
## F.A.Q
### How to overcome server query limit?
You might get one of these messages:
> I always get `flood client` message when clicking anywhere in the web interface.
The web UI uses query commands _a lot_! When your instance is up and running, you should be able to change the following
setting, e.g. directly in your database (MySQL or sqlite).
```ini
serverinstance_serverquery_flood_commands = 9999
serverinstance_serverquery_max_connections_per_ip = 999
serverinstance_serverquery_flood_time = 1
```
> I always get `TSException: Error: host isn't a ts3 instance!` when selecting a server.
You're probably on a docker environment and the TeamSpeak server is queried through the web UI which
resides behind a web server, so the TeamSpeak server thinks that the _remote web server IP address_ invokes the query
commands and thus blacklists it.
You need define an exception for you server's IP in a [`whitelist.txt` file](#whitelist-text-file) and include it in
your TeamSpeak application.
You can also add the desired IP to `query_ip_allowlist.txt` and `query_ip_whitelist.txt` within the TeamSpeak 3 Server
data directory (in example it's `./ts3server` where your `docker-compose.yml` resides).
### I always get `no write permissions` or something similar when trying to save snapshots or when a log entry is created.
This probably happens when you're in the docker setup. Ensure that host binds have permissions set up properly. The user
which is used in the docker container is `nobody` with id `65534`. If, e.g. logs are host bound, then execute
`chown -R 65534:65534 host/path/to/log`. The same holds true for snapshots.
In the below `docker-compose.yml` file it's advised to execute the following command when you're in the _same_ directory
as the `docker-compose.yml` file resides in: `chown -R 65534:65534 env snapshots log`.
## Configuration
The main configuration file for the *web interface* is the `env` file located in `config/`. There's an example file
called `env.example` which you **need** to copy to `config/env`. Defaults will assume you're running your TeamSpeak
server on `localhost` with default port. Docker deployments can and *should* host bind this file into the container
directly and just maintain the `env` file.
## Deployment
The application can be deployed two different ways. See below for more information. For each deployment type a running
TeamSpeak 3 instance is a prerequisite.
In the `docker-compose.yml` [example](#docker-compose), a setup together with a teamspeak server instance is shown.

#### docker standalone
The following section outlines a manual setup. Feel free to use the provided `docker-compose.yml` as quick setup.
1. Create docker volumes for `snapshots`, `log` and `env`. Alternative is to host bind them into your containers.
2. Create a docker network with a fixed IP range or later use host network.
3. Depending on your setup, you need to change `teamspeak_host` of your `env` file to point either to `your IP` or to a
`fixed docker IP` which your teamspeak uses. `localhost` is not valid if you're using it in docker. If you're unsure,
please take a look at the example `docker-compose.yml` files.
4. Start a container using the docker image `varakh/ts3web` and provide the following bindings for volumes:
* `{env_file_volume|host_file}:/var/www/html/applicationconfig/env`
* `{snapshot_volume|host_folder}:/var/www/html/application/data/snapshots`
* `{log_volume|host_folder}:/var/www/html/application/log`
5. [Ensure that you're whitelisting the IP from which the webinterface will issue commands.](#whitelist-text-file)
6. Run the `docker run` command including your settings, volumes and networks (if
any): `docker run --name teamspeak_web -v ./env:/var/www/html/application/config/env -p 8181:80 varakh/ts3web:latest`
.
#### docker-compose
In order for TeamSpeak to show correct IP and country flags, the `network_mode = "host"` is advised. It's also possible
to set everything up without using the host network mode and use fixed IPs.
The examples will use host binds for volumes. Feel free to adapt the `docker-compose.yml` template and use docker
volumes instead if you like.
Ensure to [apply permissions](#i-always-get-no-write-permissions-or-something-similar-when-trying-to-save-snapshots-or-when-a-log-entry-is-created) for volumes though.

```
#### whitelist text file
The following illustrates a valid `whitelist.txt` file which can be used for the above `docker-compose` setups. You need
to replace `your-public-ip` with the TeamSpeak's public IP address if required or remove the fixed internal docker IP if
you're on 'host' mode.
```
127.0.0.1
::1
10.5.0.5
your-public-ip
```
Now execute `docker-compose up -d` to start those containers. If you like to update, do `docker-compose down`,
`docker-compose pull` and then `docker-compose up -d` again.
Your TeamSpeak 3 Server will be available under `public-server-ip:9987`. The web interface will be available on
`127.0.0.1:8181`. You need to add a [reverse proxy](#reverseproxy) and probably you also want SSL configured if you
expose it via domain. For testing purposes, change `- 127.0.0.1:8181:80` to `- 8181:80`. The web interface will then be
available under
`public-server-ip:8181`.
This is **not recommended**! Secure your setup properly via [reverse proxy and SSL](#reverse-proxy).
### As native PHP application
**Prerequisite**: `php`, `composer` and probably `php-fpm` installed on the server.
#### Install:
* Clone repository
* Change directory to project home
* Execute `composer install`
* `composer install`
* Do the configuration by coping the `env.example` file (see information above)
* Use a web server _or_ run directly via the embedded PHP server: `php -S localhost:8080 -t public public/index.php`.
* Point your browser to [localhost:8080](http://localhost:8080)
* Apply any [whitelist.txt](#whitelist-text-file) changes if you configured `teamspeak_host` differently
than `localhost`
#### Upgrade:
* Change directory to project home
* `git pull`
* `composer update`
### Reverse proxy
Here's an example on how to configure a reverse proxy for the web interface docker container
```
root .../public;
index index.php;
# enable and setup if you have a certificate (highly recommended)
#ssl on;
#ssl_certificate fullchain.pem;
#ssl_certificate_key privkey.pem;
rewrite_log on;
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ @ee;
}
location @ee {
rewrite ^(.*) /index.php?$1 last;
}
# php fpm
location ~ \.php$ {
fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$;
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php-fpm/php-fpm.sock;
include fastcgi_params;
}
```
## Limitations
TeamSpeak has a detailed interface for permissions and uploading files, therefore the following features are not
supported:
* uploading files (only viewing and deleting, use the official client for uploading)
* editing permissions (only viewing, use the client for editing)
## Development
If you're willing to contribute, here's some information.
### Release
* Set a date in the `CHANGELOG.md` file
* Remove `SNAPSHOT` from the version in `Constants.php`
* Build the docker image from the project
* if necessary, add GitHub access token to let composer pull dependencies within the image correctly:
add `&& composer config --global --auth github-oauth.github.com \` before the `composer install` command,
where `` can be retrieved from [GitHub settings](https://github.com/settings/tokens)
* execute `sudo docker build --no-cache -t varakh/ts3web:latest .` to build
* publish it
* Tag the release git commit and create a new release in the VCS web interface
### Prepare next development cycle
1. Branch from `master` to `release/prepare-newVersionNumber`
2. Add `-SNAPSHOT` to the version in `Constants.php` and increase it
3. Merge this branch to `patch` or/and `dev` respectively
4. Don't forget to clean up all created branches
### Helpers
Attributes can be defined when including `table`, `keyvalues` and `form` templates of twig. This helps to generate
tables and forms without the need to specify all attributes.
```
hiddenDependingOnAttribute // hides a row depending on a value in a table
hiddenColumns // hides an entire column depending on a key in a table
links // generates a link for a specific cell in a table or keyvalue
additional_links // generates extra columns in a table
filters // applies filters depending on a key in a table or key value view
attributesEditable // define editable attributes in the key value view
fields // define fields for a form
```
See example usage in the folder `View/bootstrap4`.
### Translations
- This app uses Symfony Translator. It's bootstrapped in `Util\BootstrapHelper` and locales are placed
under `data/locale/` and the data table `.json` file, e.g. `en_dataTable.json`. Adjust to your needs or help
translating.
- Form fields (name/id should be the same) are also translated. For a field named `content` or `ConT enT`
translate `form_field_content`.
### Theme
Themes can be chosen in the `env` file by editing the `theme` variable. Templates are mapped to the corresponding view
folder in `src/View/`. `.css`, `.js` and other style files like `.ttf` or `.woff2` for fonts should be placed
in `public/theme/` and accessed accordingly. See an example in `src/View/boostrap4/layout.twig`.
