[jlesage/filebot] plex notify in docker compose

[sykick]

Hi, I'm using filebot:amc in docker but cant figure out how to pass the plex=host:token option to the container in docker compose.

Do I use PLEX=host:token as an environment variable, or should I be using AMC_CUSTOM_OPTIONS=PLEX=host:token or something else. Tried both but could not get it working.

I cant seem to find any examples to help me.

thanks,
sykick

AMC_CUSTOM_OPTIONS would suggest that you're using the 3rd party jlesage/filebot container, and notably not one of ours. Please read Installing FileBot on unRAID for details.


According to the jlesage/filebot manual, the AMC_CUSTOM_OPTIONS environment variable expects a line of command-line options that will then be added to the filebot command, the usage would thus look something like this:

Shell: Select all

--def plex=host:token

You would therefore set the AMC_CUSTOM_OPTIONS environment variable like so, assuming docker command-line usage:

Shell: Select all

-e AMC_CUSTOM_OPTIONS="--def plex=host:token"

Okay, thanks for the support. I did not realize it was unofficial.

I'll look to move over to the official version then.

Thanks again.

It's an alternative that does things differently, notably many different things in a single container, not necessarily better or worse. I just mean to say that I didn't write the code so I'm not an expert on how things work exactly.
