[Script] Generate .plexmatch files
Posted: 09 Jul 2025, 19:42
This post-processing script for Episode Mode will generate .plexmatch files after episodes have been renamed and organized into season folders:
Groovy: Select all
{ source, target, metadata ->
def plexmatch = target.dir / '.plexmatch'
allOf{ "Title: $n" }
{ "Year: $y" }
{ if (s) "Season: $s"}
{ if (tmdbid) "tmdbid: $tmdbid" }
{ if (tvdbid) "tvdbid: $tvdbid" }
{ if (e) "Episode: ${e.pad(2)}: $target.name" }
{ if (special) "Episode: SP${special.pad(2)}: $target.name" }
.findAll{ line ->
none{ line in lines(plexmatch) }
}.each{ line ->
plexmatch.append(line + '\n', 'UTF-8')
}
}
Console Output: Select all
$ ls -a
.plexmatch
