`discord-audio-stream` is a small TypeScript library for managed Discord voice playback through
`@discordjs/voice` and ffmpeg.
It manages the Discord voice connection, ffmpeg process, raw PCM audio resource, optional renewal, and cleanup. Keep one
`AudioManager` per guild, usually in a `Map<string, AudioManager>`, and call `dispose()` when that manager will not be
reused.
## Support
Create an [issue](https://git.lechner-systems.at/fraujulian/Discord-Audio-Stream/issues) on GitHub or contact
[`fraujulian`](https://discord.com/users/860206216893693973) on Discord.
## Installation
Node.js `22.22.3` or newer is required.
```bash
npm install discord-audio-stream @discordjs/voice prism-media @snazzah/davey opusscript
```
`ffmpeg` must be available either on the host PATH or through the optional `ffmpeg-static` package:
```bash
npm install ffmpeg-static
```
Use `ffmpeg.mode: 'native'` for PATH-based ffmpeg and `ffmpeg.mode: 'static'` for `ffmpeg-static`.
`libsodium-wrappers` is optional. Install it only when your runtime does not support `aes-256-gcm`:
```bash
node -e "console.log(require('node:crypto').getCiphers().includes('aes-256-gcm'))"
npm install libsodium-wrappers
```
## Basic Usage
```ts
import { AudioManager } from 'discord-audio-stream';
const manager = new AudioManager({
connection: {
guildId: guild.id,
channelId: voiceChannel.id,
adapterCreator: guild.voiceAdapterCreator,
},
source: {
type: 'url',
url: 'https://example.com/live-stream.mp3',
},
ffmpeg: {
mode: 'native',
},
});
await manager.start();
```
For a file source:
```ts
manager.setSource({
type: 'file',
path: 'audio/intro.mp3',
});
await manager.start();
```
Relative file paths are resolved from `process.cwd()`. URL sources are validated before playback starts.
For large bots, queue many simultaneous starts so the host does not spawn too many ffmpeg processes in the same tick.
## Lifecycle
```ts
manager.setConnection(connectionOptions);
manager.setSource(source);
await manager.start(); // connect() + play()
manager.pause();
manager.resume();
await manager.stop(); // stops playback and destroys the voice connection
manager.dispose(); // final cleanup; the manager cannot be reused
```
`connect()` joins the configured voice channel. `play(source?)` starts playback on an existing connection. Use `start()`
when you want both.
## API
```ts
type AudioManagerOptions = {
ffmpeg?: {
mode?: 'native' | 'static';
executablePath?: string;
inputArgs?: readonly string[];
outputArgs?: readonly string[];
};
connection?: {
guildId: string;
channelId: string;
adapterCreator: DiscordGatewayAdapterCreator;
};
source?: { type: 'url'; url: string } | { type: 'file'; path: string };
renewIntervalMs?: number | false;
connectTimeoutMs?: number;
volume?: {
enabled?: boolean;
initialPercent?: number;
};
};
```
### Defaults
| Option | Default |
| ------------------ | ----------- |
| `ffmpeg.mode` | `'native'` |
| `connectTimeoutMs` | `20_000` |
| `renewIntervalMs` | `5_400_000` |
| `volume.enabled` | `false` |
### Methods
| Method | Description |
| ------------------------ | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `setConnection(options)` | Replaces the voice connection target. |
| `setSource(source)` | Replaces the audio source. |
| `connect()` | Joins the configured Discord voice channel. |
| `play(source?)` | Starts playback on an existing connection. |
| `start()` | Connects and starts playback. |
| `pause()` | Pauses active playback. |
| `resume()` | Resumes paused playback. |
| `stop()` | Stops playback, clears renewal, and destroys the voice connection. |
| `setVolume(percent)` | Sets volume from `0` to `100`; requires `volume.enabled: true`. |
| `dispose()` | Idempotently releases timers, ffmpeg, streams, player state, and voice connection. |
### State
```ts
manager.state; // 'idle' | 'connecting' | 'ready' | 'playing' | 'paused' | 'stopped' | 'disposed'
manager.isPlaying;
manager.isConnected;
```
## Audio Options
Inline volume has runtime cost in `@discordjs/voice`, so it is disabled by default.
```ts
const manager = new AudioManager({
connection,
source,
volume: {
enabled: true,
initialPercent: 50,
},
});
await manager.start();
manager.setVolume(25);
```
Calling `setVolume()` without `volume.enabled: true` throws `AudioManagerStateError`.
Default ffmpeg output is raw Discord-compatible PCM: `s16le`, `48000 Hz`, `2 channels`.
You can override ffmpeg arguments through `ffmpeg.inputArgs` and `ffmpeg.outputArgs`. When you override them, you are
responsible for keeping the output compatible with `StreamType.Raw`.
By default, the manager schedules a renewal after `5_400_000 ms` so long-running streams can reconnect periodically.
Set `renewIntervalMs: false` to disable it. `stop()` and `dispose()` always clear the renewal timer.
## Errors
The package exports these error classes:
- `AudioManagerError`
- `AudioManagerConfigError`
- `AudioManagerStateError`
- `FfmpegProcessError`
Configuration problems, such as a missing source or invalid URL, throw `AudioManagerConfigError`. Invalid lifecycle
operations, such as calling `pause()` while nothing is playing, throw `AudioManagerStateError`.
## Development
```bash
npm ci
npm run check
npm run build
```
