Overseerr Request Management Bot

Simple Telegram bot that will give buttons to approve or decline requests from Overseerr.

Requirements

• Redis Server
• Python 3.10
• Telegram API details (see https://my.telegram.org)
• Telegram Bot API Token (talk to @botfather on Telegram to get one)
• Overseerr API key

For the redis server, I created a docker container and used that. You can do the same, or install it on your server. I've provided a docker-compose file that you can use to get started.

Installing

Once you get your config.ini file set up, you can run the bot with the following command:

python -m overseerrbot

I do not have a dockerfile for the bot as a whole so this is what you have to do.

I run my bots in a screen/tmux session so that they will keep running.
