Scripts to generate a weekly email of new additions to Plex

plexWeeklyReport

Scripts to generate a weekly email of new additions to Plex.

Introduction

This script is meant to send out a summary of all new Plex entries to your server to all of your server's users.

Supported Platforms

• Debian
• Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
• Mac OSX

Supported Email Clients

• Gmail
• Mozilla Thunderbird

Supported Plex Agents

• themoviedb
• Freebase
• thetvdb.org

Prerequisites

The following are needed to run this script:

1. Ruby installed (at least version 1.9.3) and ruby-dev.
2. For OSX: make sure you have Ruby installed using RVM (This is needed to create a wrapper to weekly run the script through crontab) (see http://railsapps.github.io/installrubyonrails-mac.html. Follow the steps from "Prepare your computer" until "Rails installation options").
3. themoviedb set as your Agent for your Movie section on your Plex server.
4. thetvdb.org set as your Agent for your TV section on your Plex server.
5. (Optional) A Gmail account to forward the email (Gmail is the only supported provider, so if you use another, YMMV).

Installation (Linux)

1. Clone this repo on your server:

   git clone https://github.com/bstascavage/plexReport.git

2. Change to the plexReport directory

3. Run the initial_setup script:

   ./initial_setup.sh

4. If you want to run your script with different commandline parameters, you'll need to edit the crontab. See here for reference: http://www.adminschoice.com/crontab-quick-reference

Installation (OS X)

Part 1: Install plexReport

1. Clone this repo on your server:

   git clone https://github.com/bstascavage/plexReport.git

2. Change to the plexReport directory

3. Install the blunder gem (http://bundler.io/)

   gem install bundler

4. Install the gem dependecies:

   bundle install

5. Setup the config file in etc/config.yaml. See etc/config.yaml.example and below for details

6. Run bin/plexreport to execute the script It should work correctly

Part 2: Create Ruby Wrapper

Now to have the script run once a week through crontab, you have to create an RVM alias by doing the following steps: (Note: You need an RVM alias because launchd, cron, and other process schedulers operate in discrete bash shell environments. Simply calling ruby from inside your launchd or cron script will not work; that will invoke the non-RVM ruby that OS X shipped with. Instead, you need an RVM alias, which will run your file through RVM's ruby, from inside launchd.)

1. Determine your ruby version by entering

   which ruby this should results in: /Users/you/.rvm/rubies/ruby-2.2.0/bin/ruby ruby-2.2.0 is your ruby version

2. Create a wrapper by entering

   rvm alias create plexReport ruby-2.2.0@plexReport Note: Replace ruby-2.2.0 with the version that you have determined in step 1

3. Test the wrapper by entering

   $rvm_path/wrappers/plexReport/ruby <PATH_TO_REPO>/bin/plexReport.rb -t Note: Replace <PATH_TO_REPO> with the path leading to your plexReport directory

   It should run and exit properly (be patient it might take a few minutes).

4. Next determine the absolute path to your wrapper. Just run

   echo $rvm_path it should result in something like this /users/esw1187/.rvm/

   Substitute '$rvm_path' in the wrapper call with the absolute rvm path obtaine above and run it again by entering

   /users/ersw1187/.rvm/wrappers/plexReport/ruby /path_to/plexReport/bin/plexReport.rb

5. Create bash script to run the Rub code by doing the following:

   • Create a file on your desktop named 'plexReport.sh' and open it with TextEdit

   • Copy the following two lines in the file export LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 export LANG=en_US.UTF-8

   • Add the wrapper call you just tested in step 4 to the file that you have just tested. E.g. /users/ersw1187/.rvm/wrappers/plexReport/ruby /path_to/plexReport/bin/plexReport

6. Copy plexReport.sh to /user/local/bin directory

7. Go to the /usr/local/bin directory and set the correct permissions by entering chmod u+x plexReport.sh

8. Add the following line to your crontab (sudo crontab -e)

   `15 11 * * 5 <USERNAME> /usr/local/bin/plexReport.sh` 
   

   (This will run it every Friday at 11:15. To change the time, see crontab documentation:
   http://www.adminschoice.com/crontab-quick-reference

Upgrading

To upgrade your code, cd to your plexReport directory and run ./update.sh

Config file

By default, the config file is located in /etc/plexReport/config.yaml. If you need to change any information for the program, or to add more optional config parameters, see below for the config file format:

email

title - Banner title for the email body. Required.

language - The language of the email body. You need to use ISO 639-1 code ('fr', 'en', 'de'). If a content is not available in the specified language, the script will fall back to english. Defaults to 'en'. Optional.

plex

server - IP address of your Plex server. Defaults to 'localhost'. Optional.

api_key - Your Plex API key. Required.

sections - Array of sections to report on. If field is not set, will report on all TV and movie sections. Format is ['section1', 'section2']. Optional.

plexreport's Issues

Poster art for TV shows is too large in some email clients

The poster art used for the TV shows looks to be rendering at full size, whereas the poster art for movies seems right-sized.

I see this when using Outlook. One other user in the Plex forum reports (with screenshots) the same issue using Thunderbird.

I have not seen the issue when using Roundcube, a web-based email client. Perhaps that's because the email client is purposely resizing the images to fit on the screen better, but that is speculation.

Bundler Issues

OSX 10.10.5

Cloned the repo, then cd into repo to run gem install bundler and everything is listed as successful.

$ gem install bundler
Successfully installed bundler-1.10.6

Using mime-types 2.4.3
Using mail 2.6.3
Using bundler 1.10.6
Bundle complete! 6 Gemfile dependencies, 9 gems now installed.

After creating my config file, I try to run plexreport and have an issue.

$ ./bin/plexreport
Could not find json-1.8.1 in any of the sources
Run `bundle install` to install missing gems.

Any help in figuring this out would be great, thanks.

error: comparison of NilClass with String failed (ArgumentError)

Hi,

All of a sudden I am getting this error. I have already updated to see whether that may be the cause.

chunkykong:/opt/plexReport # LANG=en_US.UTF-8 /usr/local/sbin/plexreport -t
/usr/local/sbin/plexreport:223:in sort_by': comparison of NilClass with String failed (ArgumentError) from /usr/local/sbin/plexreport:223:insort_by!'

from /usr/local/sbin/plexreport:385:in `

'

The last lines of the log (debug level) show it has collected data on all new episodes. The series "Zwarte Tulp" is alphabetically the last of my TV Series.

Any idea what is causing this?

Possible Issue: New Shows recently added not showing up in report

I am not sure if this is an actual issue or by design, but I just added many new TV shows (air date today) to my plex server and none of them show up in the report. I have shows from 11/30 - 12/6 PST. If I run tomorrow, will the shows I added today show up in the report? If this is by design, is it possible to change the script to allow all new releases through current time to be in the report? Thanks!

Add timeout catching

API calls, ESPECIALLY thetvdb, sometimes fail, which breaks the script. Needs proper error checking.

Hello, I love this script!
I had a permissions issue ("Log file not found Exiting ....") I've solved temporarily.
Applying changing permissions "chmod -R 775" to plexReport directory permissions. What Should I apply?

REQUEST: Send General Notice to Plex Friends

In addition to sending a weekly report on the new releases for the week, it would be awesome if the script included an option to send out a general notice in a nicely formatted HTML email to users. It would come in handy to notify of downtime, etc. In addition, perhaps another option to add a notice in the header or footer of the weekly new releases email would be nice too!

Thanks again for your efforts! =)

Change the frequency of the script

Hello, I would like to change the frequency of the script. Instead of running week, I'd like that every day will run
From Weekly to every day. Is this possible?

Sorry for my English.

Add commandline parameters

Feature Request: Option to email user statistics summary

I am not sure if you are familiar with plexWatch and plexWatch/Web, but they are very nice scripts that provide excellent statistics by user. I am not sure if this is easily doable, or if I should perhaps make the request with the plexWatch/Web developer, but it would be great if I had an option to easily send watched statistics, including show/movie, duration, stream info, total time on plex usage per day, week, month, all time, etc. to users. In addition to a "plexReport" on newly added TV/Movies, it would be a watched "plexReport".

New episodes showing up on report when they aren't on the server

I had apparently made the assumption that a user would have the most current episode downloaded, but this is an incorrect assumption.

Log file not found

As mentioned - keep getting Log File not found when running plexreport -t

REQUEST: Limit which Libary section to be notified per user.

Hi, Would it be possible to limit which library i want to notify my users of new items?

Also it would be great if we can specify create notification groups and add emails to those groups. If i want to notify Group1 of Movies only and Group2 of Kids Movies and Movies and Group3 of Documentaries.

Thank you. Love the script.

More than one episode of a TV Show

if more than one episode of a tv show is added within the week one of the episodes is listed twice instead of the two separate episodes.

REQUEST: Enable local assets agent

REQUEST: Include Genre, Release Date, and Stars from IMDB

I realize the Movies have hyperlinks to IMDB, but it would be nice to include the Genre, MPAA rating, Release Date, and Stars from IMDB as well in the email body if possible.

Thanks again for the wonderful script and quickly adding the IMDB ratings!

Cannot install

The script initial_setup.sh has an issue at line 27 :
/use/bin/gem
It should be /usr/bin/gem

Also somme commands requires sudo, some not. It may be more safe to use sudo for each command requiring it instead of asking for sudo the whole script (especially as bundler do not want to be executed as root).

Also, highline seems to not be available in the required 1.7.0 version (you may want to update it to 1.7.1).

REQUEST: Enable use of freebase scanner in addition to tmbd.org

Tmdb.org doesn't pick everything up and doesn't allow addition of extras and trailers. Thx!

Feature request: Add support for anime tv folders: HTTP Anidb Metadata Agent (HAMA)

The default tvdb metadata agent has very poor support for anime. My anime section uses the zeroqi HAMA agent: https://github.com/ZeroQI/Hama.bundle - currently not compatible with plexReport's script.

When running the script plexReport exits with this:

plexReport.rb:126:in getNewTVEpisodes': undefined method[]' for nil:NilClass (NoMethodError)
from plexReport.rb:215:in main' from plexReport.rb:232:in

Commandline parameter for sending the report only to the owner

Mostly for testing purposes.

REQUEST - Multiple Library Functionality

I love this script! I am wondering if it's possible to prepend the title of the movie with the library in which it is contained, for example: (Kids) MovieTitle (1943) I have multiple move libraries with differing content and it would be nice for users to be able to see which library any specific new content was added under.

In this same vein, a feature to only email with content from the libraries that user has access to would be very cool (so kids can thier own emails but don't see movies they aren't allowed to watch).

Collapse Seasons into one view

REQUEST: Select Movies or TV Shows or Both in output

I have many users who only care about the movies, TVShows don't matter. I think it would be great to have an easy selection somewhere (perhaps the config.yaml) to choose what types of media to output. Specifically, I'd like to just have Movies output for folks. Alternatively, using a switch on the script might work as well so someone could run a script once a week for only themselves (include all), but also run a script once a week for friends, which outputs only movies.

Insert checks for blank sections, or no media to be added

If a section (ie Movies) has no new entries, or there are no new TV episodes, seasons, and movies, put the needed checks in.

Add logging

Update thetvdb API

Apparently thetvdb removed a large section of their API, which broke this script (ugh).

Error: /opt/plexReport/bin/plexReport.rb:183:in `block in getTVEpisodes': undefined method `each' for nil:NilClass (NoMethodError)

When running /opt/plexReport/bin/plexReport.rb -t -v I get this error:

/opt/plexReport/bin/plexReport.rb:183:in 'block in 'getTVEpisodes': undefined method 'each' for nil:NilClass (NoMethodError)

Thanks for your help in getting this resolved. I'm really looking forward to using this.

Here are my config file. I need to figure how to upload a whole log file.

config.yaml:

---
email:
   title: 'Plex Weekly Updates'
plex:
   server: 10.1.1.20
   api_key: <api>
mail:
   address: smtp.gmail.com
   port: 587
   username: ***@gmail.com
   password: ***
   from: ***@gmail.com 
   subject: 'Plex'
   recipients_email: ['***@***.org', '***@***.org']
   recipients: ['PLEX_USER']

Ability to have a space in subject line

I would like the ability to put a space after my custom subject line before the date. It currently shows up as "New This Week:12/07/2014". I tried adding single quotes but it breaks the scripts ability to parse the config file. I also tried   figuring it would maybe read the html in the subject but no luck.

If you could change the way the subject option is parsed to allow single quotes or even just add a space on the end by default that would fix it for me.

REQUEST - Ability to customize email recipients

Would like to see the ability to use a custom list of email addresses instead of pulling from Plex to target users that may not have a separate Plex account.
Example - I have 3 users that I share with. Two of those users (User 1 and User 2) do not care about new stuff, they just use Plex with whatever is there.
One user (User 3) uses it as a cable replacement and wants to know when new shows are added.
In addition, my wife (Wife) uses Plex but just uses my account.

I would like the ability to tell Plex to email User 3 and Wife while ignoring User 1 and User 2.
Hopefully that makes sense.

No Email sending, error and config attached

As per the forum.
I'm trying to run this on OSX Yosemite.

E-mail to the Plex owner when the plexReport stops on a error

Is het posible to genarate an E-mail to the Plex owner when there is a error?

PlexReport broken after upgrade to 15.04

I upgraded to 15.04 and now whenever I try to run the report, I get the following error:

user@hostname:/etc/plexReport$ /usr/local/sbin/plexreport -t
/usr/lib/ruby/2.1.0/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:55:in require': cannot load such file -- i18n (LoadError) from /usr/lib/ruby/2.1.0/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:55:inrequire'
from /usr/local/sbin/plexreport:11:in `

I have the gem installed, so I'm not sure what this error could mean.
user@hostname:/etc/plexReport$ gem list --local | grep i18n
