PyTS3

This package provides a Python 3 API for:

TS3 query connections
TS3 query events
TS3 file transfers

You can find a complete API documentation here.

Installation

This package is registered on PyPi, so you're done with:

$ pip3 install ts3

TS3 Server configuration

If you want to send lots of queries to the TS3 server, make sure, that you're connection is not closed by the anti-flood protection of the TS3 server. So it may be wise to add the host that runs the TS3 queries to the query_ip_whitelist.txt of your TS3 server:

$ echo "192.168.178.42" >> path/to/ts3/server/directory/query_ip_whitelist.txt

Introduction

The easiest way to get to grips with this library is taking a look at the examples.

If you need information about the possible query commands, take a look at the TS3 Server Query Manual.

Examples

You can find more examples in the ts3.examples package.

Show all clients on the virtual server with the server id 1:

#!/usr/bin/python3

import ts3

with ts3.query.TS3Connection("localhost") as ts3conn:
        # Note, that the client will wait for the response and raise a
        # **TS3QueryError** if the error id of the response is not 0.
        try:
                ts3conn.login(
                        client_login_name="serveradmin",
                        client_login_password="FoOBa9"
                )
        except ts3.query.TS3QueryError as err:
                print("Login failed:", err.resp.error["msg"])
                exit(1)

        ts3conn.use(sid=1)

        # Each query method will return a **TS3QueryResponse** instance,
        # with the response.
        resp = ts3conn.clientlist()
        print("Clients on the server:", resp.parsed)
        print("Error:", resp.error["id"], resp.error["msg"])

        # Note, the TS3Response class and therefore the TS3QueryResponse
        # class too, can work as a rudimentary container. So, these two
        # commands are equal:
        for client in resp.parsed:
                print(client)
        for client in resp:
                print(client)

Say hello to all clients:

#!/usr/bin/python3

import ts3

with ts3.query.TS3Connection("localhost") as ts3conn:
        ts3conn.login(
                client_login_name="serveradmin",
                client_login_password="FoOBa9"
        )
        ts3conn.use(sid=1)

        for client in ts3conn.clientlist():
                msg = "Hi {}".format(client["client_nickname"])
                ts3conn.clientpoke(clid=client["clid"], msg=msg)

Event handling:

#!/usr/bin/python3

import time
import ts3

with ts3.query.TS3Connection("localhost") as ts3conn:
        ts3conn.login(
                client_login_name="serveradmin",
                client_login_password="FoOBa9"
        )
        ts3conn.use(sid=1)

        # Register for events
        ts3conn.servernotifyregister(event="server")

        while True:
                event = ts3conn.wait_for_event()

                # Greet new clients.
                if event[0]["reasonid"] == "0":
                        print("client connected")
                        ts3conn.clientpoke(clid=event[0]["clid"], msg="Hello :)")

A simple TS3 viewer:

#!/usr/bin/python3

import ts3

# The examples package already contains this implementation.
# Note, that the ts3.examples.viewer module has an helpful class to
# build a complete channel tree of a virtual server: ChannelTreeNode
from ts3.examples.viewer import view

with ts3.query.TS3Connection("localhost") as ts3conn:
        ts3conn.login(
                client_login_name="serveradmin",
                client_login_password="FoOBa9"
        )
        view(ts3conn, sid=1)

Download and upload files:

#!/usr/bin/python3

import ts3

with ts3.query.TS3Connection("localhost") as ts3conn:
        ts3conn.login(
                client_login_name="serveradmin",
                client_login_password="FoOBa9"
        )

        # Create a new TS3FileTransfer instance associated with the
        # TS3Connection.
        ts3ft = ts3.filetransfer.TS3FileTransfer(ts3conn)

        # Upload the image *baz.png* to the channel with the id 2 on the
        # TS3 server.
        # Note the opening mode ("rb").
        with open("baz.png", "rb") as file:
                ts3ft.init_upload(input_file=file, name="/baz.png", cid=2)

        # Download the file into *baz1.png*.
        with open("baz1.png", "wb") as file:
                ts3ft.init_download(output_file=file, name="/baz.png", cid=2)
