# cpt-kuesels PMM files
## Basics
I run PMM with docker-compose:
```yaml
  pmm_scheduled:
    image: meisnate12/plex-meta-manager:latest
    container_name: pmm_scheduled
    volumes:
      - /docker/appdata/plex-meta-manager/config:/config:rw
      - /docker/appdata/plex-meta-manager/assets:/assets:rw
      - /docker/appdata/plex-meta-manager/metadata:/metadata:rw
      - /docker/appdata/plex-meta-manager/overlays:/overlays:rw
    environment:
      PMM_TIME: "01:15,07:15,13:15,19:15"
    restart: on-failure

## WIP Notice & Instructions
Version required: v1.17.3

I overhauled my language overlays yet again.
Instead of big flags, I now use small flags with the language written beside the flag.

My suggestion is downloading the required files and run them local, as I have not yet worked in to run them from the configs repo.
Also that way you can fine tune it all to your specific needs.

<br>

Here is a short explanation on how to get them working and how to customize:

My approach was to separate different aspects of it into individual files.

They are:

  - _OverlayPacks/*

    | I generated 3 Packs to choose from: german, english and two letter language codes ISO 639-2. Take the files you want to use and put them in the folder *overlays/_flags* to use with my config

  - metadata/admin/_switches.yml

    | Switch specific overlays on using template_variables in config.yml, as they all default to false initially.

  - metadata/admin/_templates.yml

    | Contains all templates used in my files, not necessarily specific to overlays.

    | 'flag_overlays' is the template used.

  - metadata/admin/core.yml

    | Use collections to switch metadata languages for items.

  - overlays/admin/queues.yml

    | Contains the queue 'flags' used in my overlays and a pseudo overlay builder definition, which should not actually do something but was required to have a valid file.

  - overlays/flags.yml

    | Has all the overlay builders for the different languages.

  - overlays/_flags/*

    | Put the overlay files you chose/created in this folder.

I am using Overlay Queues and sorted all languages in my library according to my preference with weights.

Feel free to ask me questions in the Discord or make suggestions on what I need to add here.

<br>

I added all files I used to create the overlays in the folder *__OverlayCreation*.

The psd uses variables and datasets to be able to generate a batch quickly.

    File->Export->Data-Sets as Files

To convert the generated psd-files into png-files I use the application ImageMagick and provided a batch file in the export directory to take care of it.
