teamspeak-query npm version

A small, promise-based library for talking to your Teamspeak-Server via the Teamspeak Server Query. See for yourself:

const TeamspeakQuery = require('teamspeak-query');
const query = new TeamspeakQuery.Raw();

query.send('login', 'serveradmin', 'changeme')
  .then(() => query.send('use', 1))
  .then(() => query.send('servernotifyregister', { 'event': 'server' }))
  .then(() => console.log('Done! Everything went fine'))
  .catch(err => console.error('An error occured:', err));

// After teamspeak has processed 'servernotifyregister',
// we will get notified about any connections
query.on('cliententerview', data =>
  console.log(data.client_nickname, 'connected') );

Installation

$ npm install teamspeak-query

Upgrading: If you are upgrading to a newer version of teamspeak-query, take a look at the changelog to find out what needs to be done on your side. I will try to keep this process as simple as possible with future releases.

TeamspeakQuery.Raw

The constructor takes a single object with some options.

Name Default Description
options {} Passed to net.Socket.connect
options.host 127.0.0.1 The ip of the server
options.port 10011 The query port of the server

The underlying TCP socket can be accessed via the sock property.

TeamspeakQuery.SSH

When using SSH you won't need to authenticate via the login-command, because, unlike with TeamspeakQuery.Raw, this is done when establishing the connection.

Name Default Description
options {} Passed to ssh2.Client.connect
options.host 127.0.0.1 The ip of the server
options.port 10011 The query port of the server
options.username none The username
options.password none The password

The underlying ssh2.Client instance can be accessed via the client property.

The first Example, but via SSH:

const query = new TeamspeakQuery.SSH({ username: 'serveradmin', password: 'changeme' });

// We can omit the login command
query.send('use', 1)
  .then(() => query.send('servernotifyregister', { 'event': 'server' }))
  .then(() => console.log('Done! Everything went fine'))
  .catch(err => console.error('An error occured:', err))

query.on('cliententerview', data =>
  console.log(data.client_nickname, 'connected') );

Sending Commands

TeamspeakQuery.send(cmd, params?, ...arguments?)

Sends a command to the server and returns a Promise that resolves the response or rejects if something went wrong.

There are 2 ways, which can also be mixed, to specify parameters for the command:

  • params: An object, e.g. { 'parameter': 'value', 'x': 42 }.
  • arguments: Plain arguments passed to the function, e.g. query.send('login', 'username', 'password'). You can also use it to set flags, e.g. query.send('clientlist', '-uid', '-ip').

If you want your response to be an array, e.g. for commands like clientlist, take a look at Issue #3.

Keep-Alive

A keep-alive mechanism is implemented to prevent the server from closing the connection after inactivity. It basically just sends a version command every few minutes (This doesn't require authentication and has a very small overhead). If you want to tune its parameters, you can access the keepalive property of your TeamspeakQuery instance:

  • Enable: query.keepalive.enable()
  • Disable: query.keepalive.disable()
  • Set the interval to x seconds: query.keepalive.setDuration(x)
    The default value is 5 minutes (300 seconds).

Throttling

Commands are being throttled by default to prevent a ban for flooding (see Whitelisting and Blacklisting on page 6 in the specs). The instance of lib/throttle.js can be accessed via query.throttle. If you want to disable throttling, you can do it like this: query.throttle.set('enable', false).

File Handling

For interacting with files in Teamspeak channels, you can use the teamspeak-filesystem package.
