# Dumb Builders
3 years ago
This builder finds its items by using the features of Plex.
No configuration is required for these builders.
The results of these builders are static and require PMM to re-run in order to update.
| Attribute | Description | Works with Movies | Works with Shows | Works with Playlists and Custom Sort |
|:----------------------------------------------|:----------------------------------------------------------------------------|:------------------------------------------:|:------------------------------------------:|:------------------------------------------:|
| [`plex_all`](#plex-all) | Gets every movie/show in your library. Useful with [Filters](../filters.md) | :fontawesome-solid-circle-check:{ .green } | :fontawesome-solid-circle-check:{ .green } | :fontawesome-solid-circle-xmark:{ .red } |
| [`plex_watchlist`](#plex-watchlist) | Gets every movie/show in your Watchlist. | :fontawesome-solid-circle-check:{ .green } | :fontawesome-solid-circle-check:{ .green } | :fontawesome-solid-circle-check:{ .green } |
| [`plex_pilots`](#plex-pilots) | Gets the first episode of every show in your library | :fontawesome-solid-circle-xmark:{ .red } | :fontawesome-solid-circle-check:{ .green } | :fontawesome-solid-circle-check:{ .green } |
| [`plex_collectionless`](#plex-collectionless) | Gets every movie/show that is not in a collection | :fontawesome-solid-circle-check:{ .green } | :fontawesome-solid-circle-check:{ .green } | :fontawesome-solid-circle-xmark:{ .red } |

## Plex All
Finds every item in your library. Useful with [Filters](../filters.md).
3 years ago
The expected input is either true or false.
```yaml
collections:
9.0 Movies:
plex_all: true
filters:
rating.gte: 9
```
## Plex Watchlist
Finds every item in your Watchlist.
The expected input is the sort you want returned. It defaults to `added.asc`.
### Watchlist Sort Options
| Sort Option | Description |
|:--------------------------------------------|:--------------------------------------------|
| `title.asc`<br>`title.desc` | Sort by Title |
| `release.asc`<br>`release.desc` | Sort by Release Date (Originally Available) |
| `critic_rating.asc`<br>`critic_rating.desc` | Sort by Critic Rating |
| `added.asc`<br>`added.desc` | Sort by Date Added to your Watchlist |
The `sync_mode: sync` and `collection_order: custom` Setting are recommended.
```yaml
collections:
My Watchlist:
plex_watchlist: critic_rating.desc
collection_order: custom
sync_mode: sync
```

## Plex Pilots
Gets the first episode of every show in your library. This only works with `builder_level: episode`
3 years ago
```yaml
collections:
3 years ago
Pilots:
builder_level: episode
3 years ago
plex_pilots: true
```
## Plex Collectionless
**This is not needed if you're using [Smart Label Collections](smart.md#smart-label).**
Finds every item that is not in a collection unless the collection is in the exclusion list. This is a special collection type to help keep your library looking correct. When items in your library are in multiple collections it can mess up how they're displayed in your library.
For Example, if you have a `Marvel Cinematic Universe` Collection set to `Show this collection and its items` and an `Iron Man` Collection set to `Hide items in this collection` what happens is the show overrides the hide, and you end up with both the collections and the 3 Iron Man movies all displaying.
Alternatively, if you set the `Marvel Cinematic Universe` Collection to `Hide items in this collection` then movies without a collection like `The Incredible Hulk` will be hidden from the library view.
To combat the problem above you set all collections to `Hide items in this collection` then create a collection set to `Hide collection` and put every movie that you still want to display in that collection.
With the variability of collections generated by the Plex Meta Manager maintaining a collection like this becomes very difficult, so in order to automate it, you can use `plex_collectionless`. You just have to tell it what collections to exclude or what collection prefixes to exclude.
There are two attributes for `plex_collectionless`:
* `exclude`: Exclude these Collections from being considered for collectionless.
* `exclude_prefix` Exclude Collections whose title or sort title starts with a prefix from being considered for collectionless.
**At least one exclusion is required.**
3 years ago
```yaml
collections:
Collectionless:
plex_collectionless:
exclude_prefix:
- "!"
- "+"
- "~"
exclude:
- Marvel Cinematic Universe
3 years ago
sort_title: ~_Collectionless
collection_order: alpha
collection_mode: hide
3 years ago
```
* Both `exclude` and `exclude_prefix` can take multiple values as a List.
* This is a known issue with Plex Collection and there is a [Feature Suggestion](https://forums.plex.tv/t/collection-display-issue/305406) detailing the issue more on their forms.
## Plex Search
Uses Plex's [Advanced Filters](https://support.plex.tv/articles/201273953-collections/) to find all items based on the search parameters provided.
Any Advanced Filter made using the Plex UI should be able to be recreated using `plex_search`. If you're having trouble getting `plex_search` to work correctly, build the collection you want inside of Plex's Advanced Filters and take a screenshot of the parameters in the Plex UI and post it in either the [Discussions](https://github.com/meisnate12/Plex-Meta-Manager/discussions) or on [Discord](https://metamanager.wiki/en/latest/discord/), and I'll do my best to help you.
3 years ago
like Plex's [Advanced Filters](https://support.plex.tv/articles/201273953-collections/) you have to start each search with either `any` or `all` as a base. You can only have one base attribute and all search attributes must be under the base.
Inside the base attribute you can use any search below or nest more `any` or `all`. You can have as many nested `any` or `all` next to each other as you want. If using multiple `any` or `all` you will have to do so in the form of a list.
**Note: To search by `season`, `episode`, `album`, or `track` you must use the `builder_level` [Setting](../settings.md) to change the type of items the collection holds.**
3 years ago
There are a couple other attributes you can have at the top level only along with the base attribute are:
## Special Attributes
| Attribute | Description & Values |
|:-----------|:---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `limit` | **Description:** The max number of item for the search.<br>**Default:** `all`<br>**Values:** `all` or a number greater than 0 |
| `sort_by` | **Description:** This will control how the filter is sorted in your library. You can do a multi-level sort using a list.<br>**Default:** `random`<br>**Values:** Any sort options for your search type in the [Sorts Options Table](#sort-options) |
| `type` | **PLAYLIST SEARCHES ONLY** **Description:** Allows different types of media to be searched for.<br>**Default:** `movie`, `show`, or `artist` depending on library type<br>**Values:** `movie`, `show`, `season`, `episode`, `artist`, `album` or `track` |
| `validate` | **Description:** Determines if a collection/playlist will fail on a validation error<br>**Default:** `true`<br>**Values**: `true` or `false` |

**Example:** `Attribute.Modifier: Value`
## String Searches
String searches can be used with either no modifier or with `.not`, `.is`, `.isnot`, `.begins`, or `.ends`.
