n0ctal 5c7ca5b579 feat(clients): give each client its own traffic reset cycle (#6240)
* feat(clients): give each client its own traffic reset cycle

Traffic reset is configured on the inbound, so every client sharing an
inbound resets together. An operator running a monthly 1000GB plan and a
weekly 200GB plan side by side has to press Reset Traffic by hand.

Clients now carry the same trafficReset / trafficResetDay pair the
inbound already has, with the same vocabulary and the same monthly
due-day rule, and PeriodicTrafficResetJob makes a second pass over the
clients whose own cycle matches the period it is running for. A client
that leaves the field at never behaves exactly as before: only its
inbound's schedule can reset it.

The fields live on ClientRecord as well as in the inbound settings JSON,
so an ordinary edit does not write the cycle back as empty, and an
unknown period is rejected rather than coerced, since a coerced value
would read as configured while no job would ever select the client.

Cron expressions and a custom post-reset quota from the issue are left
out: both are separate decisions, and neither has an inbound-level
counterpart to stay consistent with.

* fix(clients): make the per-client reset cycle editable and safe to run

Review found three things wrong with the first cut, one of them mine and
worse than the bug it replaced.

The cycle could only be set at creation. ClientService.Update writes the
columns directly only for a client with no inbounds; the normal path goes
through SyncInbound and applyClientRecordMerge, which this change had not
extended, so an edit updated the settings JSON while the clients column
kept the old value and the job kept applying the old cycle. The earlier
test passed because it asserted the value survived an unrelated edit,
which it did precisely because nothing ever wrote it. Replaced with a
test that changes the cycle and switches it off again.

Avoiding the re-enable that ResetTrafficByEmail performs was wrong.
Depletion disables clients.enable and the settings JSON as well as
client_traffics.enable, so lifting only the quota gate left a depleted
client out of the generated config with zeroed counters, which no longer
match the depleted predicate: locked out permanently. The rule is now
about cause, not state — a client the quota switched off is restored, one
disabled below its quota was switched off by hand and is skipped.

The bulk path also bypassed node propagation and the MTProto sidecar
quota that ResetTrafficByEmail handles, so it silently did nothing on
node-backed inbounds. Dropped in favour of the integrated path, whose
needRestart is now collected and turned into a single SetToNeedRestart.

Also adds the AutoMigrate NULL backfill, guards the merge so a stale node
snapshot cannot erase a configured cycle, validates the bulk-create and
import paths, normalizes the day the way the inbound path does, marks the
fields omitempty so existing clients match the published contract, and
shares one TRAFFIC_RESETS tuple between the three forms.

* fix(clients): validate renew fields on the bulk and import paths too

BulkCreate and ImportClients insert client records without going through
Create, so the resetDay/resetMax checks added with the calendar renewal
(#6239) and the renew cap (#6238) never ran there. An API caller could
store resetDay 45 or a negative resetMax, values the renewal query then
mishandles silently. Mirror Create's validation on both batch paths, next
to the trafficReset check they already carry.

3x-ui

Release Build GO Version Downloads License Go Reference

3X-UI is an advanced, open-source web control panel for managing Xray-core servers. It provides a clean, multi-language interface for deploying, configuring, and monitoring a wide range of proxy and VPN protocols — from a single VPS to multi-node deployments.

Built as an enhanced fork of the original X-UI project, 3X-UI adds broader protocol support, improved stability, per-client traffic accounting, and many quality-of-life features.

Important

This project is intended for personal use only. Please do not use it for illegal purposes or in a production environment.

Features

  • Multi-protocol inbounds — VLESS, VMess, Trojan, Shadowsocks, WireGuard, Hysteria2, HTTP, SOCKS (Mixed), Dokodemo-door / Tunnel, and TUN.
  • Modern transports & security — TCP (Raw), mKCP, WebSocket, gRPC, HTTPUpgrade, and XHTTP, secured with TLS, XTLS, and REALITY.
  • Fallbacks — serve multiple protocols on a single port (e.g. VLESS and Trojan on 443) using Xray's fallback support.
  • Per-client management — traffic quotas, expiry dates, IP limits, live online status, and one-click share links, QR codes, and subscriptions.
  • Traffic statistics — per inbound, per client, and per outbound, with reset controls.
  • Multi-node support — manage and scale across multiple servers from a single panel.
  • Outbound & routing — WARP, NordVPN, custom routing rules, load balancers, and outbound proxy chaining.
  • Built-in subscription server with multiple output formats and custom page templates.
  • Telegram bot for remote monitoring and management.
  • RESTful API with in-panel Swagger documentation.
  • Flexible storage — SQLite (default) or PostgreSQL.
  • 13 UI languages with dark and light themes.
  • Fail2ban integration for enforcing per-client IP limits.

Quick Start

bash <(curl -Ls https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mhsanaei/3x-ui/master/install.sh)

To install a specific version, append its tag (e.g. v3.4.0):

bash <(curl -Ls https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mhsanaei/3x-ui/master/install.sh) v3.4.0

To install the rolling dev build (latest per-commit pre-release from main, not a stable release), pass dev-latest:

bash <(curl -Ls https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mhsanaei/3x-ui/master/install.sh) dev-latest

During installation a random username, password, and access path are generated. After installation, run x-ui to open the management menu, where you can start/stop the service, view or reset your login credentials, manage SSL certificates, and more.

For full documentation, please visit the project Wiki.

Unattended install

The installer also runs non-interactively for cloud-init. Set XUI_NONINTERACTIVE=1 (or pipe with no TTY) and it installs end-to-end with zero prompts, generating random credentials and writing them to /etc/x-ui/install-result.env. See deploy/ for:

Supported Platforms

Operating systems: Ubuntu, Debian, Armbian, Fedora, CentOS, RHEL, AlmaLinux, Rocky Linux, Oracle Linux, Amazon Linux, Virtuozzo, Arch, Manjaro, Parch, openSUSE (Tumbleweed / Leap), Alpine, and Windows.

Architectures: amd64 · 386 · arm64 (aarch64) · armv7 · armv6 · armv5 · s390x.

Database Options

3X-UI supports two backends, chosen during the install:

  • SQLite (default) — a single file at /etc/x-ui/x-ui.db. Zero setup, ideal for small and medium deployments.
  • PostgreSQL — recommended for high client counts or multi-node setups. The installer can install PostgreSQL locally for you, or accept a DSN to an existing server.

At runtime the backend is selected via environment variables (the installer writes these to /etc/default/x-ui for you):

XUI_DB_TYPE=postgres
XUI_DB_DSN=postgres://xui:password@127.0.0.1:5432/xui?sslmode=disable

Migrating an existing SQLite install to PostgreSQL

x-ui migrate-db --dsn "postgres://xui:password@127.0.0.1:5432/xui?sslmode=disable"
# then set XUI_DB_TYPE and XUI_DB_DSN in /etc/default/x-ui and restart:
systemctl restart x-ui

The source SQLite file is left untouched; remove it manually once you have verified the new backend.

Docker

The default docker compose up -d keeps using SQLite. To run with the bundled PostgreSQL service, uncomment the two XUI_DB_* env lines in docker-compose.yml and start with the profile:

docker compose --profile postgres up -d

The image bundles Fail2ban (enabled by default) to enforce per-client IP limits. Fail2ban bans offenders with iptables, which requires the NET_ADMIN capability. docker-compose.yml already grants it via cap_add; if you start the container with docker run instead, add the capabilities yourself, otherwise bans are logged but never applied:

docker run -d --cap-add=NET_ADMIN --cap-add=NET_RAW ... ghcr.io/mhsanaei/3x-ui

Environment Variables

XUI_TUNNEL_HEALTH_MONITOR Enable the tunnel health monitor (probes a URL and restarts xray after repeated failures; a restart drops all clients) false
XUI_TUNNEL_HEALTH_PROXY Proxy the probe is sent through; point it at a local xray inbound so the probe tests the tunnel (e.g. socks5://127.0.0.1:1080). Empty means the probe only checks host connectivity
XUI_TUNNEL_HEALTH_URL URL probed for tunnel health https://www.cloudflare.com/cdn-cgi/trace
XUI_TUNNEL_HEALTH_INTERVAL Interval between probes 30s
XUI_TUNNEL_HEALTH_TIMEOUT Per-probe timeout 10s
