README

ts3web is a free and open-source web interface for TeamSpeak 3 instances.

The minimalistic approach of this application is intentional.

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. 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).

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 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, a setup together with a teamspeak server instance is shown.

Docker

Important. Read before setup!

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.
  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 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 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.

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
  • Apply any whitelist.txt 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 <token> \ before the composer install command, where <token> can be retrieved from GitHub settings
    • 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/<themeName>. .css, .js and other style files like .ttf or .woff2 for fonts should be placed in public/theme/<themeName> and accessed accordingly. See an example in src/View/boostrap4/layout.twig.
