TeamSpeak 3 installer

mikho · May 2020

After a couple of tickets asking for TS3 install support I decided to fork an existing script and update it with some features like

Downloading the latest version
Working on both CentOS and Debian

I am not a coder by profession, I'll take all ideas, test-reports and feature requests as an opportunity to educate myself and learn something new.

I'm asking for this favor, please download, test install, let me know what you think.

I don't like you putting that read in a loop. You should ony allow y/n/abort. I guarantee there's one moron who will bash on the keyboard for a week here.

also:

read -p 'Butts? [y/N]' boogerbrain
case $boogerbrain in:
  y|Y) install ;;
 n|N) quit ;;
 *) abort ;;
esac

Also, holy shit, use lsb_release rather than assuming /etc/redhat-release and /etc/os-release are anything you can trust unless you parse them. Here's a silly code snippit based on CloudLinux' KernelCare installer script - I'd prefer to use lsb_release, but this /mostly/ works:

if [ -e /etc/os-release ]; then
    distr=$(grep -w 'ID' /etc/os-release | cut -d'=' -f2|tr -d '"')
    if [ "$distr" == "debian" ] || [ "$distr" == "devuan" ] || [ "$distr" == "ubuntu" ]; then
        repo=${repo}-debian
        apt-get -y -q install curl
    else
        yum -y -q install curl
    fi
    #I really don't like their script design, but whatever.
    if [ "$distr" ==  "devuan" ]; then 
        ver=$(grep -w 'PRETTY_NAME' /etc/os-release | cut -d' ' -f3 | grep -oE "[a-z]*")
        if [ "$ver" == "ascii" ]; then rel="9" pkg=${name}-9.deb
        else rel="8" pkg=${name}-8.deb
        fi
    else
        rel=$(grep -w 'VERSION_ID' /etc/os-release | cut -d'.' -f1 | grep -oE "[0-9]*")
    fi

    case $distr in
        "devuan")
            if [ "$rel" -ge "9" ]; then pkg=${name}-9.deb
            elif [ "$rel" -eq "8" ]; then pkg=${name}-8.deb
            else pkg=${name}-6.deb
            fi
        ;;
        "debian")
            if [ "$rel" -ge "9" ]; then pkg=${name}-9.deb
            elif [ "$rel" -eq "8" ]; then pkg=${name}-8.deb
            else pkg=${name}-6.deb
            fi
        ;;
        "ubuntu")
            if [ "$rel" -ge "14" ]; then pkg=${name}-8.deb
            else pkg=${name}-6.deb
            fi
        ;;
        "amzn")
            rel='7'
            pkg=${name}-${rel}.rpm
        ;;
        *       )
            pkg=${name}-${rel}.rpm
        ;;
    esac

elif [ -e /etc/system-release ]; then
    rel=$(cut -d'.' -f1 /etc/system-release | grep -oE "[0-9]")
    pkg=${name}-${rel}.rpm
else
    rel=$(cut -d'.' -f1 /etc/redhat-release | grep -oE "[0-9]")
    pkg=${name}-${rel}.rpm
fi

Also, might want to learn to use ip a; since ifconfig is officially deprecated and isn't installed by default.

I took a quick look, it looks good for someone who is learning Bash.

Some observations:

If you install ca-certificates, don't use --no-check-certificate
Old init systems are irrelevant nowadays so I'd remove references to them and replace with systemd.
ifconfig is deprecated and not available everywhere. ip is available everywhere, and should be used instead. Take a look at my installers if you need help with regex.

lsb_release isn't available everywhere, while /etc/*-release are.

Fuck you, that's what.

It is if you install it. Look at my revised 'not quite lsb_release' info above.

I'm happy for you, and Imma let you finish, but (sysv)init was and is still the standard of all time!

One of two reasons, either I tested before I added ca-certificates to be installed.
Or, it didn’t work without it.
can’t remember which, I’ll check it out.

I think I’ll keep it for now, still loads of old installations around that uses the old init system.

Will take a look.
Not that important though, only displaying the value in a text, not using it anywhere.

@WSS : thanks for the input. I’ll consider lsb_release.
In the templates I tried, lsb_release wasn’t available unless you installed it.
Tried to keep number of packages needed to a minimum.

Has even Red Hat stopped reading /etc/rc.local these days?
Or is there a systemd unit parsing/sourcing it?

I don't know anything about TeamSpeak.... is these ports are supposed to be accessible from outside?

fport="30033"
qport="10011"

If so, I think you would need some kind of iptables/firewalld management.

Indeed there is.

Awesome ... Then all those old articles explaining how you get old and unpatched stuff working by using tar, cp, chmod 777 and by adding a line or two to rc.local are still relevant ...

I was going to argue relevancy but since you specified "old and unpatched stuff" I figured learning the wrong way to do things was kinda on target. :P

I think iptables is a bit out of the scope as not everyone is running it.
I will however, make a note on adding a text telling the user to open the firewall on the selected ports.
