Discord Bot Installation

See https://github.com/shayaantx/botdarr/wiki/Install-Discord-Bot

Slash commands installation/updates:

By default, slash commands are automatically available now
You can no longer use / with discord as that is reserved for slash commands
If you are trying to use slash commands, you will need to update your bots permission to include slash commands, then re-invite your bot your discord server
It can take up to 1 hour for discord slash commands to appear
If you don't see them after an hour, try disabling one of the commands, and re-enabling it. This workarounds the following bug I've noticed in desktop discord client https://stackoverflow.com/questions/72111433/discord-bot-slash-command-not-appear-on-win10 discord/discord-api-docs#4859 discord/discord-api-docs#4856
Slash commands from botdarr operate the same except they are not the same case (i.e., all the commands have dashes in them)

To make Non-Slash commands work you need to go to Discord Developer section -> Applications -> Bot -> Enable Message Content Intent

Non-slash commands don't work anymore with botdarr unless you are running your bot in 75+ servers, see https://support-dev.discord.com/hc/en-us/articles/4404772028055

Slack Bot Installation

See https://github.com/shayaantx/botdarr/wiki/Install-Slack-Bot

(WARNING) If you are using slack "/help" has been deprecated by slack, so pick a different prefix for your commands (i.e., command-prefix=$). Otherwise help commands won't work

Telegram bot installation

See https://github.com/shayaantx/botdarr/wiki/Install-Telegram-Bot

Matrix bot installation

See https://github.com/shayaantx/botdarr/wiki/Install-Matrix-Bot

Jar installation/Configuration

Get latest copy of botdarr botdarr-release.jar
Make sure you have openjdk 8 or oracle java 8 installed on your machine
Make sure you run botdarr on the same type of OS has radarr, sonarr, and lidarr (or paths when adding content won't match target OS)
Create a folder called "database" in same folder you run jar in
Create a file called "properties" (without double quotes) in same folder as the jar
Fill it with the following properties (you can omit sonarr properties if you aren't using it, same with radarr/lidarr, however everything else listed below is required) - See Sample properties
You can only configure discord or slack or telegram token/channels, otherwise you will get an error during startup
There are is an available option for url base for both radarr/sonarr. If you have a url base and use radarr WITHOUT configuring the url base here, I've found radarr will execute most api requests normally, but /api/movie POST requests wont (assume this is a bug but haven't had time to investigate yet). Radarr seems to return a 200 http code, not actually add the movie, and return json as if you are calling /api/movie as a GET request, unless you prefix the api url with your radarr url base. So MAKE SURE you account for this in your config/setup.
Run the jar using java

nohup java -jar botdarr-release.jar &

Run with Docker

Docker images are here https://cloud.docker.com/repository/docker/shayaantx/botdarr/general
Create a folder on your host and replace <BOTDARR_HOME> with that folder
Make sure to fill in appropriate environment variables, See Environment Variable Section
You will need to configure at least one chat client and at least one media api (i.e., radarr, sonarr, or lidarr)
Then run below command

# for latest
docker run -d --name botdarr -e DISCORD_TOKEN="blahblah" -e DISCORD_CHANNELS="channel1" -v <BOTDARR_HOME>/database:/home/botdarr/database -v <BOTDARR_HOME>/logs:/home/botdarr/logs shayaantx/botdarr:latest &

Or if you want to use docker-compose
If don't want to use environment variables to configure botdarr, mount a file named properties to (See Sample properties) to /home/botdarr/config

Usage

Type !help in your configured chat client to get information about commands and what is supported
Notifications will appear indicating the current downloads (based on your configuration for max downloads), their status, and their time remaining.
When you search for content (i.e., !movie title add History of Dumb People) if too many results are returned you will be presented with multiple results. You can either use the thumbs up reaction (in discord or slack) or copy the add command (which will be embedded in the result) into the chat client.
Example commands:
- !movie title add Lion Fling
- !show title add One Fliece
- !movie find new zombies
- !artist find new Linkin Flarp
- !movie downloads
- !show downloads
- !help
- !shows help
- !movies help
The default command prefix is !. I chose ! because / (original command prefix) is commonly used by many chat clients and has existing functionality with it that leads to some commands not working nicely.
