# Genre Collections
|
|
|
|
The `genre` Default Collection File is used to dynamically create collections based on the genres available in your library.
|
|
|
|
This file also merges similarly named genres (such as "Sci-Fi", "SciFi" and "Sci-Fi & Fantasy") into one ("Science Fiction")
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Requirements & Recommendations
|
|
|
|
Supported Library Types: Movie, Show
|
|
|
|
## <a id="collection_section"></a>Collections Section 060
|
|
|
|
| Collection | Key | Description |
|
|
|:---------------------------------------------------------|:-------------------------------------|:-------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|
|
| `Genre Collections` | `separator` | [Separator Collection](../separators.md) to denote the Section of Collections. |
|
|
| `<<Genre>> Movies/Shows`<br>**Example:** `Action Movies` | `<<Genre>>`<br>**Example:** `Action` | Collection of Movies/Shows that have this Genre. |
|
|
|
|
## Config
|
|
|
|
The below YAML in your config.yml will create the collections:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
libraries:
|
|
Movies:
|
|
collection_files:
|
|
- default: genre
|
|
TV Shows:
|
|
collection_files:
|
|
- default: genre
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Template Variables
|
|
|
|
Template Variables can be used to manipulate the file in various ways to slightly change how it works without having to
|
|
make your own local copy.
|
|
|
|
Note that the `template_variables:` section only needs to be used if you do want to actually change how the defaults
|
|
work. Any value not specified will use its default value if it has one if not it's just ignored.

|
|
??? abstract "Variable Lists (click to expand)"
|
|
|
|
* **File-Specific Template Variables** are variables available specifically for this Kometa Defaults file.
|
|
|
|
* **Shared Template Variables** are additional variables shared across the Kometa Defaults.
|
|
|
|
* **Shared Separator Variables** are additional variables available since this Default contains a
|
|
[Separator](../separators.md).

|
|
of an "include"
|

3. Do not create a "News" collection, and do not include it in any other collections that it may be in as part of
|
|
an "include"

|
|

## Default Values
|
|
|
|
Unless you customize them as described above, these collections use default lists and searches to create the collections.
|
|
|
|
If you are interested in customizing the default values, you can find that information [here](#template-variables).
|
|
|
|
If you are interested in seeing what those default builders are, you can find that information [here](../sources.md).
