plex_library_section_size_count depth limited and albums/tracks ignored

[AndreiGavriliu]

Hi,

I just implemented this plex_exporter in my OKD environment and wanted to see how many artists/albums/tracks I have in my library. I noticed it only counts the artist type, ignoring the album and track

Also, when checking how many Photos I have, it only counts the first level of photo albums. My folder structure is as follows:

2018/2018-04-12/Some Event/image0005.jpg
2018/2018-08-04/Some other Event/image0004.jpg
2018/2018-08-04/Some other Event/image0008.jpg
2019/2019-09-12/Someone's Birthday/image0085.jpg

This structure only reports 2 photos - one for each year.

Is it possible to change the depth of the photo albums and also add albums and tracks counts?

If it helps, here is a trace output from my plex_exporter pod:

}"

Thanks, Andrei

Yeah I noticed the same thing with TV shows when I was writing this exporter. You get a TV shows library with a number of TV shows but you have to dig in deeper if you want to get the number of episodes.

For simplicity I just grabbed the Libraries and showed their size, as I'm most interested in movies anyway. There has to be created a specific logic for each Library type.

To be perfectly honest, I don't need this feature so I'm not sure when I can find the time to fix this. But I accept contributions.
