Mellow can communicate with several APIs like Ombi, Sonarr, Radarr and Tautulli which are related to home streaming to use those services directly in your Discord client.
Go to this website: https://discordapp.com/developers/applications/ and press new Application
. Copy the Client ID first, you will need that later.
After you have done that go to the Settings Tab to the left and select Bot and press Add Bot
. You can now copy the Token from the Bot which you will
need for the Mellow Configuration later on.
Before your Bot actually listen to the channels on your server you will have to invite it first. I recommend using this for beginners: https://discordapi.com/permissions.html Select the Permissions from below and paste the Client ID down there which you copied earlier. After that just click the link on the bottom and you will be redirect to a new page where you can select the server you want to invite the Bot too.
Go into the Mellow root folder and type
npm install
To start the bot just simply type
npm start
After starting the bot you will need to configure it by visiting youripordomain:port
and filling out the Bot Settings which will start the bot with your token.
The default login credentials are username: mellow
password: default
. Please change these as soon as possible!
Note: It's recommended to set a username and password in General Settings. This way only you can access the web interface.
If you want to use this bot in a docker container you have to follow these steps:
docker pull voidp/mellow
docker run -d --restart=unless-stopped --name mellow \
-v /opt/appdata/mellow/:/usr/src/app/data/ \
-e JWT_SECRET=secret_password \
-e PORT=5060 \
-p 5060:5060 \
voidp/mellow
/opt/appdata/mellow/
or use docker compose. A yaml file is provided for this purpose.git checkout -b feature/fooBar
)git commit -am 'Add some fooBar'
)git push origin feature/fooBar
)
