Are there any specific PHP functions or libraries that are recommended for interacting with TS servers?

When interacting with TS servers, it is recommended to use the TeamSpeak 3 PHP Framework. This framework provides a set of functions and classes specifically designed for communicating with TeamSpeak servers, making it easier to manage connections, send commands, and retrieve data from the server.

// Include the TeamSpeak 3 PHP Framework
require_once('libraries/TeamSpeak3/TeamSpeak3.php');

// Connect to the TeamSpeak server
try {
    $ts3_VirtualServer = TeamSpeak3::factory("serverquery://username:password@server_ip:server_query_port/?server_port=server_port");
} catch (TeamSpeak3_Exception $e) {
    echo "Error connecting to server: " . $e->getMessage();
}

// Send a command to the server
try {
    $ts3_VirtualServer->clientList();
} catch (TeamSpeak3_Exception $e) {
    echo "Error sending command: " . $e->getMessage();
}
