# Dynamic Collections
|
|
|
|
|
|
Plex Meta Manager can dynamically create collections based on different criteria, such as
|
|
|
* Collections based on the Collections from TMDb for every item in the library. ([Star Wars](https://www.themoviedb.org/collection/10-star-wars-collection), [Harry Potter](https://www.themoviedb.org/collection/1241), etc...)
|
|
|
* Collections based on each of a Users Trakt Lists
|
|
|
* Collections for the top `X` popular people on TMDb (Bruce Willis, Tom Hanks, etc...)
|
|
|
* Collections for each decade represented in the library (Best of 1990s, Best of 2000s, etc...)
|
|
|
* Collections for each of the moods/styles within a Music library (A Cappella, Pop Rock, etc...)
|
|
|
|
|
|
The main purpose of dynamic collections is to automate the creation of collections which would otherwise require considerable user input and repetition (such as creating a collection for every genre).
|
|
|
|
|
|
Each dynamic collection must have a mapping name (just like standard collections), which is also attached to the collection as a label to mark it as having been created by this dynamic collection.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This example will create a collection for every TMDb Collection associated with items in the library.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
|
dynamic_collections:
|
|
|
TMDb Collections: # This name is the mapping name
|
|
|
type: tmdb_collections
|
|
|
remove_suffix: "Collection"
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Collection Naming
|
|
|
|
|
|
By default, the collections generated will be named for the thing being used to create them; things like genres, countries, actors or even Trakt List Names.
|
|
|
|
|
|
There are many attributes that can change the titles, including `title_format`, `remove_suffix`, `remove_prefix`, `key_name_override`, and `title_override` all detailed below.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Dynamic Keys & Key Names
|
|
|
|
|
|
A `dynamic key` or `key` for short is used to refer to a specific value/result from the dynamic collection criteria that will be used to create the collection.
|
|
|
|
|
|
A `key_name` is the name that replaces `<<key_name>>` in `title_format` to create the collection titles for each key.
|
|
|
|
|
|
An example of some keys and their names that would be generated from a `tmdb_collections` dynamic collection are
|
|
|
* `key`: "10"
|
|
|
* `key_name`: Star Wars Collection
|
|
|
* `key`: "1241"
|
|
|
* `key_name`: Harry Potter Collection
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Example Key Usage
|
|
|
|
|
|
Keys can be used for a number of purposes, examples can be found throughout this page. A few examples are shown below:
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Excluding the "Horror" key from the `Genre` dynamic collection definition
|
|
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
|
dynamic_collections:
|
|
|
Genres: # mapping name does not matter, just needs to be unique
|
|
|
type: genre
|
|
|
exclude:
|
|
|
- Horror
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Using the `key_name_override` attribute to change the formatting of "France" to "French" so that a collection can be named "French Cinema" instead of simply "France"
|
|
|
* This particular example also uses the `title_format` attribute to manipulate the naming convention of the collections.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
|
dynamic_collections:
|
|
|
Countries: # mapping name does not matter, just needs to be unique
|
|
|
type: country
|
|
|
title_format: <<country>> Cinema
|
|
|
key_name_override:
|
|
|
France: French
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Using the `addons` attribute to combine multiple `keys`, i.e. merging "MTV", "MTV2", "MTV3" and "MTV (UK)" into one "MTV Worldwide" collection.
|
|
|
* When doing this, individual collections will not be created for the individual MTV collections, instead they will be merged within the "MTV Worldwide" collection.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
|
dynamic_collections:
|
|
|
networks:
|
|
|
type: network
|
|
|
addons:
|
|
|
MTV Worldwide:
|
|
|
- MTV
|
|
|
- MTV2
|
|
|
- MTV3
|
|
|
- MTV (UK)
|
|
|
```

|
template: style collection
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Exclude
|
|
|
|
|
|
Exclude this list of `keys` from being created into collections.
|
|
|
|
|
|
For example when making a `genre` dynamic collection definition you can exclude "Horror" from having a collection created from the key.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
|
dynamic_collections:
|
|
|
Genres: # mapping name does not matter, just needs to be unique
|
|
|
type: genre
|
|
|
exclude:
|
|
|
- Horror
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Addons
|
|
|
|
|
|
Defines how multiple `keys` can be combined under a parent key.
|
|
|
|
|
|
For example, the `addons` attribute can be used to combine multiple `keys`, i.e. merging "MTV", "MTV2", "MTV3" and "MTV (UK)" into one "MTV Worldwide" collection.
|
|
|
* When doing this, individual collections will not be created for the individual MTV collections, instead they will be merged within the "MTV Worldwide" collection.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
|
dynamic_collections:
|
|
|
networks:
|
|
|
type: network
|
|
|
addons:
|
|
|
MTV Worldwide:
|
|
|
- MTV
|
|
|
- MTV2
|
|
|
- MTV3
|
|
|
- MTV (UK)
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Template
|
|
|
|
|
|
Name of the template to use for these dynamic collections. Each `type` has its own default template, but if you want to define and use your own template you can.
|
|
|
|
|
|
For example, the template below removes the limit on the `smart_filter` so it shows all items in each network
|
|
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
|
templates:
|
|
|
network collection:
|
|
|
smart_filter:
|
|
|
sort_by: critic_rating.desc
|
|
|
all:
|
|
|
network: <<network>>
|
|
|
dynamic_collections:
|
|
|
Networks: # mapping name does not matter just needs to be unique
|
|
|
type: network
|
|
|
title_format: <<key_name>>
|
|
|
template: network collection
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Template Variables
|
|
|
|
|
|
Defines how template variables can be defined by key.
|
|
|
|
|
|
For example, when using `type: tmdb_collections` and you want to define a poster url for some collections
|
|
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
|
templates:
|
|
|
optional:
|
|
|
- my_collection_poster
|
|
|
tmdb_collection_details: <<collection_id>>
|
|
|
collection_order: release
|
|
|
url_poster: <<my_collection_poster>>
|
|
|
dynamic_collections:
|
|
|
TMDb Collections: # This name is the mapping name
|
|
|
type: tmdb_collections
|
|
|
remove_suffix: "Collection"
|
|
|
template_variables:
|
|
|
my_collection_poster:
|
|
|
119: https://www.themoviedb.org/t/p/original/oENY593nKRVL2PnxXsMtlh8izb4.jpg
|
|
|
531241: https://www.themoviedb.org/t/p/original/nogV4th2P5QWYvQIMiWHj4CFLU9.jpg
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Remove Prefix/Suffix
|
|
|
|
|
|
Removes the defined prefixes/suffixes from the key before it’s used in the collection title.
|
|
|
|
|
|
For example, when using `type: tmdb_collections` you may not want every collection title to end with `Collection`
|
|
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
|
dynamic_collections:
|
|
|
TMDb Collections: # This name is the mapping name
|
|
|
type: tmdb_collections
|
|
|
remove_suffix: "Collection"
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Title Format
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is the format for the collection titles.
|
|
|
|
|
|
there are two special tags you can include in the `title_format`
|
|
|
* `<<key_name>>` is required and is what will be replaced by the dynamic key name.
|
|
|
* `<<library_type>>` will be replaced with either Movie, Show, or Artist depending on your library type.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Here's an example using `title_format`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
|
dynamic_collections:
|
|
|
Genres: # mapping name does not matter just needs to be unique
|
|
|
type: genre
|
|
|
title_format: Top 50 <<key_name>> <<library_type>>s
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Key Name Override
|
|
|
|
|
|
Defines how key names can be overridden before they are formatted into collection titles.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This example uses the `key_name_override` attribute to change the formatting of "France" to "French" so that a collection can be named "French Cinema" instead of simply "France"
|
|
|
* This particular example also uses the `title_format` attribute to manipulate the naming convention of the collections.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
|
dynamic_collections:
|
|
|
Countries: # mapping name does not matter, just needs to be unique
|
|
|
type: country
|
|
|
title_format: <<key_name>> Cinema
|
|
|
key_name_override:
|
|
|
France: French
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Title Override
|
|
|
|
|
|
Defines how collection titles can be overridden ignoring title formatting.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Here's an example using `title_override` that will override the TMDb Star Wars collection which has an TMDb ID of `10` with `Star Wars Universe.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
|
dynamic_collections:
|
|
|
TMDb Collections: # mapping name does not matter, just needs to be unique
|
|
|
type: tmdb_collections
|
|
|
remove_suffix: "Collection"
|
|
|
title_override:
|
|
|
10: Star Wars Universe
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Test
|
|
|
|
|
|
Will add `test: true` to all collections for test runs.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Here's an example using `test`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
|
dynamic_collections:
|
|
|
Genres: # mapping name does not matter just needs to be unique
|
|
|
type: genre
|
|
|
test: true
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Sync
|
|
|
|
|
|
Will remove dynamic collections that are no longer in the creation list.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The mapping name is added as a label to any collection created using dynamic and because of this when `sync` is true all collections with that label not found in this run will be deleted.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Here's an example using `sync`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
|
dynamic_collections:
|
|
|
Trakt Liked Lists: # mapping name does not matter just needs to be unique
|
|
|
type: trakt_liked_lists
|
|
|
sync: true
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Include
|
|
|
|
|
|
Define a list of keys to be made into collections.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This cannot be used with `exclude`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Here's an example using `include`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
|
dynamic_collections:
|
|
|
Genres: # mapping name does not matter just needs to be unique
|
|
|
type: genre
|
|
|
include:

## Other Name
|
|
|
|
|
|
Used in combination with `include`. When defined, all keys not in `include` or `addons` will be combined into this collection.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is the main reason to use `include`. It allows a catch all collection for everything not defined in the config file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Here's an example using `other_name`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
|
dynamic_collections:
|
|
|
Genres: # mapping name does not matter just needs to be unique
|
|
|
type: genre
|
|
|
other_name: Top Other Movies
