Description

ChannelWatcher is a Teamspeak 3 plugin that enables you to select certain channels (e.g. Support-Channels) and notifies you when a user joins this channels. It also saves these channels so they get automatically loaded each time you start Teamspeak and connect to the server.

Installation

There are two ways to install the plugin. The first way is to use the Teamspeak Package Installer, that should be included in the Teamspeak installation and that should be associated with the .ts3_plugin file extenstion. The second way is to manually copy the plugin files to your plugins folder.

Teamspeak Package Installer (Recommended):

1. Download ChannelWatcher.ts3plugin from the latest release.
2. Install the plugin by double-clicking on the file.
3. Activate the plugin in the Teamspeak Settings.

Manually copying Files:

1. Download and unpack ChannelWatcher.zip from the latest release.
2. Copy the contents of win64 folder, on a 64 bit system, or win32 folder, on a 32 bit system, into the plugins folder (should be located at %APPDATA%\TS3Client\plugins).
3. Activate the plugin in the Teamspeak Settings.

Usage

Selecting channels

To add a channel to your Watchlist just select and right-click on a channel and click on Select Watchchannel in the Channel Watcher Menu.

Deselecting channels

To remove a channel from your Watchlist just select and right-click on a channel and click on Remove Watchchannel in the Channel Watcher Menu.

Planned Features

• GUI
• Configuration

watchchannels.json

Your watchchannels are saved in watchchannels.json. You can edit this file manually but i would not recommend it.

Object structure:

{
serverUID:{
  "serverName": serverName,
  "serverUID": serverUID,
  "watchChannels":{
    channelID: {
      "channelID": channelID,
      "channelName": channelName
    },
    ...
  },
...
}

"serverName" and "channelName" are automatically updated so there is no effect in editing those.
