TS6 Manager

Web-based management interface for TeamSpeak servers. Control virtual servers, channels, clients, permissions, music bots, automated workflows, and embeddable server widgets — all from your browser.

Built on the WebQuery HTTP API (the ServerQuery replacement in modern TeamSpeak builds). Telnet is not used or supported.

Screenshots

Dashboard

Live overview of your server: online users, channel count, uptime, ping, bandwidth graph, and server capacity at a glance.

Music Bots

Run multiple music bots per server. Each bot has its own queue, volume control, and playback state. Supports radio streams, YouTube, and a local music library. Users in the bot's channel can control it via text commands (!radio, !play, !vol, etc.).

Bot Flow Engine

Visual node-based editor for building automated server workflows. Drag triggers, conditions, and actions onto the canvas, connect them, and deploy. Supports TS3 events, cron schedules, webhooks, and chat commands as triggers.

Flow Templates

Get started quickly with pre-built flow templates. Covers common use cases like temporary channel creation, AFK movers, idle kickers, online counters, and group protection. One click to import, then customize to your needs.

Three packages in a pnpm monorepo:

Package	Description
@ts6/common	Shared types, constants, utilities
@ts6/backend	Express API, WebQuery client, bot engine, voice bots, widgets
@ts6/frontend	React SPA with Vite, TailwindCSS, shadcn/ui

The backend proxies all TeamSpeak API calls. The frontend never has direct access to API keys or server credentials.

Tech Stack

Frontend: React 18, Vite, TailwindCSS, shadcn/ui, TanStack Query + Table, React Flow, Recharts, Zustand

Backend: Node.js, Express, Prisma (SQLite), JWT authentication, WebQuery HTTP client, SSH event listener

Voice/Audio: Custom TS3 voice protocol client (UDP), Opus encoding, FFmpeg, yt-dlp

Quick Start (Docker)

1. Download the docker-compose.yml
2. Create a .env file next to it:

JWT_SECRET=your-random-secret-at-least-32-characters
ENCRYPTION_KEY=another-random-secret-for-credential-encryption

Generate secure values:

echo "JWT_SECRET=$(openssl rand -base64 32)" >> .env
echo "ENCRYPTION_KEY=$(openssl rand -base64 32)" >> .env

3. Start the stack:

docker compose up -d

4. Open http://localhost:3000/setup and create your admin account
5. Log in, then add your TeamSpeak server connection under Settings → Connections (host, WebQuery port, API key)

JWT_SECRET is required — the backend will refuse to start in production without it. ENCRYPTION_KEY is optional but recommended — if not set, JWT_SECRET is used as fallback for credential encryption.

Building from Source

git clone https://github.com/clusterzx/ts6-manager.git
cd ts6-manager
echo "JWT_SECRET=$(openssl rand -base64 32)" >> .env
echo "ENCRYPTION_KEY=$(openssl rand -base64 32)" >> .env
docker compose -f docker-compose.local.yml up -d --build

Coolify / Reverse Proxy

Use docker-compose.coolify.yml as a starting point. Key differences from the standard compose:

• No ports section — the reverse proxy handles routing
• Set the domain on the frontend service in Coolify (port 80)
• If your TS server runs in a separate Docker network, add it as an external network on the backend service:

services:
  backend:
    networks:
      - ts6-network
      - ts-server-net

networks:
  ts-server-net:
    external: true
    name: your-ts-server-network-id

Development

Requires: Node.js 20+, pnpm 9+

pnpm install
pnpm dev          # starts backend + frontend in parallel

Backend runs on :3001, frontend on :5173 (Vite dev server).

Database

Prisma with SQLite. On first run:

cd packages/backend
npx prisma migrate deploy

The Docker images handle migrations automatically on startup.

Environment Variables

Variable	Default	Description
JWT_SECRET	—	Required. Secret for JWT signing. Must be set in production.
ENCRYPTION_KEY	—	Optional. Dedicated key for AES-256-GCM credential encryption. Falls back to JWT_SECRET if not set.
PORT	3001	Backend port
DATABASE_URL	file:./data/ts6webui.db	SQLite database path
JWT_ACCESS_EXPIRY	15m	Access token lifetime
JWT_REFRESH_EXPIRY	7d	Refresh token lifetime
FRONTEND_URL	http://localhost:3000	CORS origin
MUSIC_DIR	/data/music	Directory for downloaded music files

Music Bot Text Commands

When a music bot is connected to a channel, users in that channel can control it via chat:

Command	Description
!radio	List available radio stations
!radio <id>	Play a radio station
!play <url>	Play from YouTube URL
!play	Resume paused playback
!stop	Stop playback
!pause	Toggle pause/resume
!skip / !next	Next track in queue
!prev	Previous track
!vol	Show current volume
!vol <0-100>	Set volume
!np	Show current track

Requirements

• TeamSpeak server with WebQuery HTTP enabled (not raw/telnet)
• WebQuery API key (generated via apikeyadd or server admin tools)
• SSH access to the TS server (only needed for bot flow event triggers)
• yt-dlp and ffmpeg installed on the backend (included in the Docker image)
