Teamspeak Update Notifier

Do you ever came across the day when you could not connect to your own teamspeak server because of a version incompatibility between server and client? If you did, this tool might help you to never feel this pain.

What does it do?

Whenever a server admin connects to your server, the most recent released teamspeak server version will be fetched and compared to the current installed version of teamspeak. If there is any discrepancy, the admin will get a nice little private message like:

<17:56:47> "serveradmin from <ip>:<port>": Please update your server to version 3.0.0!

Pretty neat!

What do I have to do?

You need python3.9 with beautifulsoup4 and requests packages installed.

Setup a config file like config.ini.dist. The options are described in comments in the sample config.

If the config is set up, simply run the following:

$ python -m notifier "path/to/config.ini"

Or install the application setuptools (see setup.py).

Nix support

For users of the nix package manager the default.nix can be used to build the package with nix-build. The development environment can be configured with nix-shell. There is also support for nix flakes.
