# MoviePilot
Interact with MoviePilot API to search, subscribe, and manage movies/TV shows.
## Prerequisites
Required environment variables (must be set before use):
- `MOVIEPILOT_URL` - MoviePilot server URL (e.g., `http://127.0.0.1:3000`)
- `MOVIEPILOT_API_KEY` - API Key for authentication (preferred)
- Or `MOVIEPILOT_TOKEN` - Bearer token (obtained via login)
If credentials are not set, ask the user to provide them.
## Core Workflows
### 1. Subscribe to a Movie/TV Show
Typical user request: "帮我订阅《XXX》" or "Subscribe to XXX"
Steps:
1. Search for the media: `scripts/moviepilot_api.sh search "title"`
2. Parse results, confirm with user if multiple matches (show title, year, type, vote)
3. Extract `tmdb_id` (or `douban_id`), `type`, `title`, `year` from the chosen result
4. Create subscription:
```bash
scripts/moviepilot_api.sh sub_add '{"name":"Title","type":"电影","tmdbid":12345,"year":"2024"}'
```
- For TV shows, include `"season": N` if subscribing to a specific season
- `type` must be `"电影"` (movie) or `"电视剧"` (TV show)
### 2. View Subscriptions
```bash
scripts/moviepilot_api.sh sub_list
```
Present results as a readable list: name, type, year, state.
### 3. Cancel Subscription
By subscription ID:
```bash
scripts/moviepilot_api.sh sub_delete <subscribe_id>
```
By media ID:
```bash
scripts/moviepilot_api.sh sub_delete_media "tmdb:12345"
```
### 4. Check Downloads
```bash
scripts/moviepilot_api.sh downloads
```
### 5. Browse Recommendations
```bash
# Options: douban_movie_hot, douban_tv_hot, tmdb_trending, tmdb_movies, tmdb_tvs, bangumi_calendar
scripts/moviepilot_api.sh recommend douban_movie_hot
```
### 6. Search Torrent Resources
```bash
scripts/moviepilot_api.sh search_resource "keyword"
```
## Important Notes
- Media IDs use prefix format: `tmdb:12345`, `douban:12345`, `bangumi:12345`
- Always search first to get the correct media ID before subscribing
- When search returns multiple results, present them to the user for selection
- The `type` field in Chinese: `"电影"` for movies, `"电视剧"` for TV shows
- For detailed API docs, see [references/api_reference.md](references/api_reference.md)
