PlexUpdate Plugin

plexupdate is a very simple plugin for beets that lets you automatically update Plex's music library whenever you change your beets library.

Firstly, install beets with plexupdate extra

pip install "beets[plexupdate]"

Then, enable plexupdate plugin it in your configuration (see :ref:`using-plugins`). Optionally, configure the specifics of your Plex server. You can do this using a plex: section in your config.yaml:

plex:
    host: "localhost"
    port: 32400
    token: "TOKEN"

The token key is optional: you'll need to use it when in a Plex Home (see Plex's own documentation about tokens).

With that all in place, you'll see beets send the "update" command to your Plex server every time you change your beets library.

Configuration

The available options under the plex: section are:

  • host: The Plex server name. Default: localhost.
  • port: The Plex server port. Default: 32400.
  • token: The Plex Home token. Default: Empty.
  • library_name: The name of the Plex library to update. Default: Music
  • secure: Use secure connections to the Plex server. Default: False
  • ignore_cert_errors: Ignore TLS certificate errors when using secure connections. Default: False
