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).

The below is an example config.yml extract with some Template Variables added in to change how the file works.

Click the :fontawesome-solid-circle-plus: icon to learn more

```yaml
libraries:
  Movies:
    collection_files:
      - default: seasonal
        template_variables:
          use_independence: false #(1)!
          schedule_thanksgiving: range(10/01-10/30) #(2)!
          sort_by: random #(3)!
          append_data:
            apes: Planet of the Apes Day #(4)!
          schedule_apes: range(11/24-11/26) #(5)!
          imdb_list_apes: https://www.imdb.com/list/ls005126084/ #(6)!
          emoji_veteran: "🐵 " #(7)!
```

1.  Do not create the "Independence Day" collection
2.  Set a custom schedule for the Thanksgiving Day collection
3.  Sort the collections created by this file in random order
4.  Create a new Seasonal collection called "Planet of the Apes Day", and set the key for this collection to `apes`
5.  Set a scheduled range for the "Planet of the Apes Day" collection.  Planet Of The Apes Day is 11/25.
6.  Add an IMDb List to be used for the "Planet of the Apes Day" collection
7.  Add the 🐵 emoji to the "Planet of the Apes Day" collection so that the title in Plex is "🐵 Planet of the Apes 
Day Movies"
