What is Doplarr?

Doplarr is an open-source Discord bot that brings media request management into your Discord server. Members type a slash command, search for a title, and submit a request — Doplarr forwards it to Overseerr or Jellyseerr, which then routes it through Sonarr or Radarr for automatic download.

Features

• 🔍 Interactive search with poster previews in Discord embeds
• 📤 Routes requests through Overseerr or Jellyseerr
• 🔔 Posts notifications back to Discord when content is available
• 🔒 Role-based permissions — control who can request what
• 🎬 Supports season-level requests for TV shows
• 🧩 Works alongside Requestrr as an alternative Discord request bot

Doplarr in Your Discord + Media Ecosystem

Doplarr turns your Discord server into the front door for your media library. Members request content in Discord; Doplarr sends it to Overseerr; Overseerr tasks Radarr / Sonarr; and the download lands in Plex or Jellyfin automatically. Add Notifiarr for richer Discord notifications about download progress.

Why ElfHosted?

A Discord bot must stay connected to Discord's gateway 24/7 or it misses commands entirely. Hosting Doplarr on a home server means the bot goes offline whenever the machine reboots or loses power — and your household starts messaging you directly asking why requests aren't working. ElfHosted keeps Doplarr running continuously so the bot is always responsive in Discord.

FAQ

How does Doplarr differ from Requestrr?
Both are Discord bots for media requests. Doplarr uses Discord's native slash commands and interactive embeds; Requestrr uses a text-based chat flow. Both integrate with Overseerr — it's a matter of preference.

Can I restrict requests to specific Discord roles?
Yes — Doplarr supports role-based permission mappings so admins, VIPs, and regular users can have different request limits.
