Hi everyone,
Would appreciate some guidance on the best script to use for updating a Plex library after NZBGet downloads a TV Show or Movie. I have been playing with NotifyPlex but it doesn't seem to work with PMS 1.4.2
The 15 minute Plex library update interval drives me insane!
Thanks!

Of course you'll need to acquire your token from plex for each section (movies, TV shows, etc). And you'll need curl installed. change the section number below (3) with the section number for you section. I looked at notifyplex and was more than I needed. So I use this and works.
To find your token:
Sign into your Plex Account in Plex Web App
Browse to a library item and view the XML for it
Look in the URL and find the token as the X-Plex-Token value
To find your section, just hover over it in Plex and you'll see it in the link. For me, Movies shows as =library/sections/3
In Nzbget just make sure its listed in the extensions for that category.
updateplexmovies.sh
Code: Select all
#!/bin/sh
curl http://localhost:32400/library/sections/3/refresh?X-Plex-Token=X-Plex-Token
POSTPROCESS_SUCCESS=93
POSTPROCESS_ERROR=94
exit $POSTPROCESS_SUCCESS

I've modified svenglars' kodi script to fit my needs. All credits to him for the work. Place it in your scripts directory then modify your values in Nzbget. Super simple script that updates Plex. Create duplicates for additional sections. I have no idea how to writes scripts but it works.
PlexMovies.sh
Code: Select all
#!/bin/bash
