TS3J is an open-source implementation of the reverse-engineered Teamspeak3 full server/client protocol, as an adaptation of Splamy's C# TS3Client source code. You can find that here: https://github.com/Splamy/TS3AudioBot/.
This project is the network-level API library for the reference implementation of Teamspeak3 for **Manebot**, my multiplatform chatbot that you can extend with your own plugins. GitHub: https://github.com/Manevolent/manebot-ts3
A standalone proof-of-concept was created to wrap ts3j: https://github.com/Manevolent/ts3j-musicbot
(Shameless plug) If you want to deliver a great music bot, check out ffmpeg4j, a wrapper around the native C library FFmpeg, to get insanely low CPU usage on your YouTube video downloads (or streams if you don't want to hit disk), and audio playback:

# A note about Teamspeak 5
I am watching the development of Teamspeak 5, and may end up supporting it depending on my availability at the time. From what I have heard so far, TS5 will be backwards-compatible to some degree, and interoperability will exist. Depending of the degree of protocol compatibility, TS3j may not need to be changed.
I still actively use Teamspeak3 almost every day (and an accompanying ts3j bot) and will plan to at least attempt to support TS5 when it is released, so at least music bots will continue to be supported on this platform.

# Connection & Basic Setup
```
client = new LocalTeamspeakClientSocket();
// Set up client
client.setIdentity(identity);
client.addListener(listener);
client.setNickname(nickname);
client.connect(
new InetSocketAddress(
InetAddress.getByName(address),
port // UDP client port, Teamspeak3 client uses 9987
),
password,
10000L
);
// Subscribe to all channels
client.subscribeAll();
// Get list of clients
for (Client basicClient : client.listClients())
recognizeClient(client.getClientInfo(basicClient.getId()));
```
Note that while `connect()` is processing, you'll receive channels registered and clients currently connected to the server. It is important that you use the listener to collect these, and track their changes through the other listener event calls.
You can interact with the server using the commands on the `client` object similarly to TS3Query.
# Handling chat
```
// TS3Listener interface
@Override
public void onTextMessage(TextMessageEvent textMessageEvent) {
if (textMessageEvent.getInvokerId() == client.getClientId())
return;
// Global chat example
client.sendServerMessage("Echo!");
// PM to the sender
client.sendPrivateMessage(textMessageEvent.getInvokerId(), "Echo!");
}
```
# Sending audio
```
// Microphone interface
public void write(float[] buffer, int len) {
byte[] opusPacket = doOpusEncodingHere(buffer, len);
packetQueue.add(opusPacket);
}
@Override
public boolean isReady() {
return true;
}
@Override
public CodecType getCodec() {
return CodecType.OPUS_MUSIC;
}
@Override
public byte[] provide() {
try {
if (packetQueue.peek() == null)
return new byte[0]; // underflow
OpusPacket packet = packetQueue.remove();
if (packet == null)
return new byte[0]; // underflow
return packet.getBytes();
} catch (NoSuchElementException ex) {
return new byte[0]; // signals the decoder on the clients to stop
}
}
```
# Receiving audio
Refer to the `setVoiceHandler` and `setWhisperHandler` methods to supply a Consumer object to receive Voice and Whisper packets. You will need to decode the packets yourself, and insert packet-loss-correction as needed.
Note that the first 5 packets starting a voice session are marked with the COMPRESSED flag. The final voice packet, intended to singal to close your decoder and flush samples, is always empty (0-length byte array).
Manebot can do this in its TS3 plugin, which uses TS3j: https://github.com/Manevolent/manebot-ts3/tree/master/src/main/java/io/manebot/plugin/ts3/platform/audio/voice
