# Actor Collections
|
|
|
|
The `actor` Default Collection File is used to dynamically create collections based on the most popular actors/actresses
|
|
in your library.
|
|
|
|
## Requirements & Recommendations
|
|
|
|
Supported Library Types: Movie, Show
|
|
|
|
## Collections Section 140
|
|
|
|
| Collection | Key | Description |
|
|
|:------------------------------------------------|:------------------------------------------------|:-------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|
|
| `Actors Collections` | `separator` | [Separator Collection](../separators.md) to denote the Section of Collections. |
|
|
| `<<actor_name>>`<br>**Example:** `Frank Welker` | `<<actor_name>>`<br>**Example:** `Frank Welker` | Collection of Movies/Shows the actor is top billing in. |
|

|
|
include-markdown "../people.md"
|
|
%}
|
|
|
|
## Config
|
|
|
|
The below YAML in your config.yml will create the collections:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
libraries:
|
|
Movies:
|
|
collection_files:
|
|
- pmm: actor
|
|
TV Shows:
|
|
collection_files:
|
|
- pmm: actor
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## 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.
|

|
|
|
|
* **File-Specific Template Variables** are variables available specifically for this PMM Defaults file.
|
|
|
|
* **Shared Template Variables** are additional variables shared across the PMM Defaults.
|
|
|
|
* **Shared Separator Variables** are additional variables available since this Default contains a
|
|
[Separator](../separators.md).

|
- pmm: actor
