PlexCache Home

Welcome to the PlexCache wiki! This is your ultimate resource for understanding and making the most out of the PlexCache Python scripts, a little but powerful tool to automate your Plex media management.

Need Assistance?

This project has been designed and tested for Unraid. Though I've made a lot of alterations and improvements, so all the edge-cases have almost certainly not been ironed out yet. Please leave a post in 'Issues' and let me know if anything breaks or throws an error.

It might work on other linux-based systems, and maybe even other operating systems, but I haven't tested any of it. If you do test it yourself, and come across any issues, let me know and I'll see what I can do to improve things. No guarantees though, I'm more focused on the Unraid implementation for now.

Start Here

To get started, explore the following pages in the wiki:

Step 1: Configure the script:

Running the Setup Script and generating your plexcache_settings.json file.

Step 2: Run PlexCache-R:

There are other methods to run the PlexCache-R script, but I've only tested and use the UserScripts one, so that's all I'll list here for now. UserScripts Setup

Notes

Log files are saved in a subfolder of your plexcache directory called 'logs'. Imaginative I know.
