Good morning all,
In these difficult times, confined to France, I automate a lot of action
... I have been using Filebot in drag'n'drop for a while and I just understood that we could also automate this.
Thanks to @rednoah who explains a lot. I read and reread these posts but I block quickly given my level.
Before automating I try to get the script to work in Terminal.
After installing Brew and updating the packages I test
and i've
I test this :
Code: Select all
script fn:amc --output "/Volumes/HDD_2/Test" --action hardlink --conflict override -non-strict --log-file amc.log --def unsorted=y music=y artwork=n "ut_label=" "ut_title=%N" "ut_kind=multi" "ut_dir=%F" movieFormat="{genres.contains('Animation') ? 'Animation' : 'Films'} / {plex.name}" --lang fr
But i've this:
Code: Select all
Script started, output file is fn:amc
script: --output: No such file or directory
Script done, output file is fn:amc

Ok so sorry 
@rednoah
I Test this :
Code: Select all
filebot -script fn:amc --output "Volumes/HDD_2/Test" --action duplicate --conflict override -non-strict --log-file amc.log --def unsorted=y music=y artwork=n "ut_label=" "ut_title=%N" "ut_kind=multi" "ut_dir=%F" movieFormat="{genres.contains('Animation') ? 'Animation' : 'Films'} / {plex.name}" --lang fr
I've this :
Code: Select all
Locking /Volumes/HDD_1/.filebot/logs/amc.log
Run script [fn:amc] at [Thu Mar 19 19:43:30 CET 2020]
Parameter: unsorted = y
Parameter: music = y
Parameter: artwork = n
Parameter: ut_label =
Parameter: ut_title = %N
Parameter: ut_kind = multi
Parameter: ut_dir = %F
Parameter: movieFormat = {genres.contains('Animation') ? 'Animation' : 'Films'} / {plex.name}
Bad ut_title value: %N
Bad ut_dir value: %F
Illegal usage: output folder must exist and must be a directory: /Volumes/HDD_1/Volumes/HDD_2/Test
Failure (°_°)
If i modifi my output and create Test in my Volume HDD_1
Code: Select all
filebot -script fn:amc --output "Test" --action duplicate --conflict override -non-strict --log-file amc.log --def unsorted=y music=y artwork=n "ut_label=" "ut_title=%N" "ut_kind=multi" "ut_dir=%F" movieFormat="{genres.contains('Animation') ? 'Animation' : 'Films'} / {plex.name}" --lang fr
I've this :

Hi @rednoah and
thank you

In the file I have the impression that he has applied it and not created a link because the 2 .mkv files are the same weight.
It may be normal but I would like to have a confirmation please because my goal is not to have 2 copies ^^

Yes, both files have the same file size, because both files are the same file. The physical data on disk exists only once though.
Please read up on how files work:

Ok thanks @rednoah
I also noticed that the copy times were strangely super fast
I wonder if I can execute 2 scipts at the end of DL. In order to scan 2 different HDDs?
The hardlink works very well, however I find it difficult to achieve certain orders.
On the one hand here is my functional code:
Code: Select all
/usr/local/bin/filebot -script fn:amc --output "/Volumes/HDD_3/Films" --action hardlink -non-strict "/Volumes/HDD_3/Torrents/DL" --log-file amc.log --def excludeList=amc.txt --def unsorted=y music=y artwork=n "ut_label=" "ut_kind=multi" --lang fr
I manage to separate the subcategories (Animation / Films):
Code: Select all
/usr/local/bin/filebot -script fn:amc --output "/Volumes/HDD_3/Films" --action hardlink -non-strict "/Volumes/HDD_3/Torrents/DL" --log-file amc.log --def excludeList=amc.txt --def unsorted=y music=y artwork=n "ut_label=" "ut_title=%N" "ut_kind=multi" "ut_dir=%F" movieFormat="{genres.contains('Animation') ? 'Animation' : 'Films'} /{plex.name}" --lang fr
Now I would like to have another entry in + ie 2 HDD.
Can I add a second line below? What syntax to adopt?
Here I put && knowing that it will not go :
Code: Select all
/usr/local/bin/filebot -script fn:amc --output "/Volumes/HDD_3/Films" --action hardlink -non-strict "/Volumes/HDD_3/Torrents/DL" --log-file amc.log --def excludeList=amc.txt --def unsorted=y music=y artwork=n "ut_label=" "ut_title=%N" "ut_kind=multi" "ut_dir=%F" movieFormat="{genres.contains('Animation') ? 'Animation' : 'Films'} /{plex.name}" --lang fr && /usr/local/bin/filebot -script fn:amc --output "/Volumes/HDD_2/Films" --action hardlink -non-strict "/Volumes/HDD_2/Torrents/DL" --log-file amc.log --def excludeList=amc.txt --def unsorted=y music=y artwork=n "ut_label=" "ut_title=%N" "ut_kind=multi" "ut_dir=%F" movieFormat="{genres.contains('Animation') ? 'Animation' : 'Films'} /{plex.name}" --lang fr
