teamspeak-bot 0.1.1

Python TeamSpeak bot using TSBot framework

TeamSpeak Bot

TeamSpeak server query bot. This bot is mainly an example project using the TSBot framework.

Features

Admin

Collection of helpful debugging commands:

• eval <eval str>: Evaluates given python expression.
• exec <exec str>: Executes given python expression. Persists any side-effects.
• quit: Closes the bot.
• send <query>: Sends a raw query to the teamspeak server and return the response data.
• spam <#lines> <text to be spammed> : Spams the current ctx of the message.
• nickname <nickname>: Changes the bot nickname. If no nickname provided, defaults to the login name.

You probably don't want anyone running these commands, so they are locked behind checks. You can configure the bot to check for specific uids or server groups that have the permission to run these commands.

AFK Mover

Checks periodically for clients that haven't been active for given amount of time.
If such clients are found, move them to specified AFK channel.

Banned names

Kicks out any clients with configured nickname.
You can configure a list of banned nicknames or provide a function that return a boolean telling the bot if a given nickname is allowed.

By default, the bot will only kick the default TeamSpeak nickname: TeamSpeakUser

• coinflip: Flips a coin, responding with heads or tails.
• roll <size=6>: Rolls a given sided die.
