# Library Attributes
Within the [Configuration File](overview.md), the `libraries` attribute specifies the Plex libraries that the user wants
Plex Meta Manager to act on.
Attributes are used to instruct Plex Meta Manager what actions to take, such as "load the following libraries" or
"execute the following Collection Definition files". These attributes can be specified individually per library, or can
be inherited from the global value if it has been set. If an attribute is specified at both the library and global
level, then the library level attribute will take priority.
### Attributes
The available attributes for each library are as follows:
??? blank "`library_name` - Used to specify the Library's name.<a class="headerlink" href="#library-name" title="Permanent link"></a>"
<div id="library-name" />*Required only when trying to use multiple servers with the same name.*
Each library that the user wants Plex Meta Manager to interact with must be documented with a library attribute.
A library attribute is represented by the mapping name (i.e. `Movies` or `TV Shows`), this must have a unique name
that correlates with a library of the same name within the Plex Media Server.
In the situation that two servers are being connected to which both have libraries of the same name, the
`library_name` attribute can be utilized to specify the real Library Name, whilst the library attribute's mapping
name can be made into a placeholder. This is showcased below:
<hr style="margin: 0px;">
**Attribute:** `library_name`
**Accepted Values:** Library Name
**Default Value:** Base Attribute Name
???+ example "Example"
```yaml
libraries:
Movies01:
library_name: Movies
Movies02:
library_name: Movies
plex:
url: http://192.168.1.35:32400
token: ####################
TV Shows:
Anime:
plex:
url: http://192.168.1.12:32400
token: ####################
```
* In this example, `"Movies01"`, `"TV Shows"`, and `"Anime"` will all use the global plex server
(**http://192.168.1.12:32400**) which is defined using the global `plex` mapping. `"Movies02"` will use the plex
server **http://192.168.1.35:32400** which is defined under its `plex` mapping over the global mapping.
??? blank "`collection_files` - Used to define [Collection Files](../files/collections.md).<a class="headerlink" href="#collection-files" title="Permanent link"></a>"
<div id="collection-files" />The `collection_files` attribute is used to define
[Collection Files](../files/collections.md) by specifying the path type and path of the files that will be executed
against the parent library. See [File Blocks](files.md) for how to define them.
<hr style="margin: 0px;">
**Attribute:** `collection_files`
**Accepted Values:** Location of Collection YAML files.
**Default Value:** `/config/<<MAPPING_NAME>>.yml`
???+ example "Example"
```yaml
libraries:
TV Shows:
collection_files:
- file: config/TV Shows.yml
- pmm: tmdb
- pmm: network
```
By default, when `collection_files` is missing Plex Meta Manager will look within the root PMM directory for a
collection file called `<MAPPING_NAME>.yml`. In this example, Plex Meta Manager will look for a file named
`TV Shows.yml`.
```yaml
libraries:
TV Shows:
```
??? blank "`metadata_files` - Used to define [Metadata Files](../files/metadata.md).<a class="headerlink" href="#metadata-files" title="Permanent link"></a>"
<div id="metadata-files" />The `metadata_files` attribute is used to define Metadata Files by specifying the path of
the files that will be executed against the parent library. See [File Blocks](files.md) for how to define them.
???+ tip
As of Plex Meta Manager 1.20.0 "Metadata Files" refers to YAML files which refers to managing the metadata of
items [movies, shows, music] within your library, and "Collection Files" refers to YAML files which define
Collections.
In previous version of Plex Meta Manager, "Metadata Files" could mean either of the above.
<hr style="margin: 0px;">
**Attribute:** `metadata_files`
**Accepted Values:** Location of [Metadata Files](../files/metadata.md)
**Default Value:** `None`
???+ example "Example"
```yaml
libraries:
TV Shows:
metadata_files:
- file: config/metadata.yml
```
??? blank "`overlay_files` - Used to define [Overlay Files](../files/overlays.md).<a class="headerlink" href="#overlay-files" title="Permanent link"></a>"
<div id="overlay-files" />The `overlay_files` attribute is used to define [Overlay Files](../files/overlays.md) by
specifying the path type and path of the files that will be executed against the parent library. See
[File Blocks](files.md) for how to define them.
<hr style="margin: 0px;">
**Attribute:** `overlay_files`
**Accepted Values:** Location of [Overlay Files](../files/overlays.md)
**Default Value:** `None`
???+ example "Example"
```yaml
libraries:
TV Shows:
collection_files:
- file: config/TV Shows.yml
overlay_files:
- file: config/Overlays.yml
```
??? blank "`report_path` - Location to save the YAML Report file for a library.<a class="headerlink" href="#report-path" title="Permanent link"></a>"
<div id="report-path" />The `report_path` attribute is used to define where to save the YAML Report file. This file
is used to store information about what media is added, removed, filtered, and missing from the Plex library
compared to what is expected from the Collection, Metadata, Overlay or Playlist file.
If your Collection file creates a collection with `Movie 1`, `Movie 2` and `Movie 3` but your Plex library only has
`Movie 1` and `Movie 3`, then the missing YAML file will be updated to inform the user that `Movie 2` was missing
from the library.
<hr style="margin: 0px;">
**Attribute:** `report_path`
**Accepted Values:** Location to save the YAML Report file
**Default Value:** `/config/<<MAPPING_NAME>>_report.yml` where `<<MAPPING_NAME>>` is the name of the library
attribute
???+ example "Example"
If you want to call your Report YAML something different you can like so:
```yaml
libraries:
Movies:
report_path: /config/My Movie Report.yml
```
Alternatively, Report YAML files can be placed in their own directory, as below:
```yaml
libraries:
Movies:
report_path: /config/reports/Movies.yml
collection_files:
- file: config/Movies.yml
overlay_files:
- file: config/Overlays.yml
```
??? blank "`template_variables` - Used to define [Custom Template Variables](../files/templates.md#template-variables) for every file in a library.<a class="headerlink" href="#template-variables" title="Permanent link"></a>"
<div id="template-variables" />Passes all given [Template Variables](../files/templates.md#template-variables) to
every template in every Collection, Metadata, and Overlay file run.
<hr style="margin: 0px;">
**Attribute:** `template_variables`
**Accepted Values:** [Dictionary](../pmm/yaml.md#dictionaries) of values specified by each particular file.
**Default Value:** `None`
???+ example "Example"
```yaml
libraries:
Movies:
template_variables:
collection_mode: hide_items
collection_files:
- file: config/Movies.yml
overlay_files:
- file: config/Overlays.yml
```
??? blank "`schedule` - Used to schedule when a library is run.<a class="headerlink" href="#schedule" title="Permanent link"></a>"

<hr style="margin: 0px;">

```
??? blank "`remove_overlays` - Used to remove overlays.<a class="headerlink" href="#remove-overlays" title="Permanent link"></a>"
<div id="remove-overlays" />Used to remove overlays from this library only.
???+ warning "Proceed with Caution"
Utill set to `false` or removed this will remove all overlays from your library every run, but will not delete
the overlaid images from your system, resulting in [image bloat](../pmm/scripts/image-cleanup.md).
<hr style="margin: 0px;">
**Attribute:** `remove_overlays`
**Accepted Values:** `true` or `false`
**Default Value:** `false`

???+ warning "Proceed with Caution"
Utill set to `false` or removed this will reset all posters to the desired source on each run and will reapply
all overlays on each run, which will result in [image bloat](../pmm/scripts/image-cleanup.md).

### Example
This example is an advanced version of the library mappings which highlights some attributes being set at the global level, and some being set at the library level:
???+ example "Example Library Mappings"
In this example, the `"TV Shows On Second Plex"` library has a library-level `plex` configuration, which takes priority over the `plex` configuration set at the global level.
The `"Anime"` library also has a library-level `radarr` configuration, which takes priority over the `radarr` configuration set at the global level.
