This application generates a .plexmatch file in the directory of all shows and movies added to your Plex Server. This is especially useful for migrating storage devices if you have some shows that needed a custom match.
The command is expecting 2 arguments from the command line
- Plex Server Token (-t or --token)
- Plex Server Url (-u or --url)
For information on how to get your Plex token, see this support link: https://support.plex.tv/articles/204059436-finding-an-authentication-token-x-plex-token/
- Modify root path (-r or --root)
- Use this option to set the root path used to be different than what your Plex server returns. For instance if your Plex container has the media mounted to /media and the computer running the application has it mounted to /mnt/media

- Set log path (-l or --log)

plexmatch.login the directory specified. The path specified must exist! If this option is not specified, no log file will be output. - Usage: -l /home/user/logs
- This will output the log to file at the path specified, log file will be named
- Get version (--version)
- This will output the version of the executable being run
- Disable Automatic Overwrite (--nooverwrite or -no)
- This will skip writing any file if it already exists instead of overwriting it.
