To interact with Shrekbot, join a Discord server where the bot is present. Use the following command to initiate a search and request content:
/request [query]: Initiates a search and returns the top ten results in a drop-down list.
Once you enter the /request command followed by your query, Shrekbot will perform the search and present the results in a drop-down list. The first result will be automatically selected, and its details, including title, description, release date, and poster, will be displayed.
You can change the selection as many times as you want by using the drop-down list to navigate through the list. When you find the desired content, simply click the "Request" button to submit your request.
Shrekbot will process the request and communicate with Ombi to add the selected content to the media library. You will receive a notification when the requested content becomes available.
/request Shrek: Initiates a search for the movie "Shrek" and presents the results./request Game of Thrones: Initiates a search for the TV show "Game of Thrones" and presents the results.
