Setting movies to Not Monitored instead of removing, and adding back if no streaming providers available [Enhancement]

[KaHooli]

With my Radarr setup, it adds new entries based on the IMDB Watchlist of my different family members. By removing the movies from Radarr all together, Radarr will just have them re-added next time the IMDB Watchlists are parsed (I've since confirmed this is true).

It would be good if the movies entry could be left in Radarr, but their monitoring is set to Not Monitored instead, and still have the files deleted from the drives.

Also, if a movie is Not Monitored and it is no longer listed on my streaming providers, it would be great to have the option to change the status back to Monitored.

Hi Kahooli,

Definitely a good feature, I have to figure out if this is possible using the Radarr API. I will come back to you when I have investigated this.

[dofl]

I'm using radarr in combination with serveral watchlists. When a new Netflix movie comes out it'll keep adding this movie because it's not in the radarr database anymore. Setting the movie on 'unmonitored' would fix it.

It's possible but I didn't see a direct API command in the docs: https://radarr.video/docs/api/

[KaHooli]

/movie/editor appears to allow editing of multiple movies at once, and one of the properties is monitored.

[ninoz]

You can set the status using the following request:

PUT http://172.25.25.60:7878/api/v3/movie/editor?apiKey=<Key>

{
    "movieIds": [
        12
    ],
    "monitored": false
}

not sure how to integrate that into your code

[haijeploeg]

Hi all,

Sorry for the extreme late reply. I had some personal stuff to deal with. I have picked up development again and I have implemented the not monitored function.

You can upgrade the package using pip install --upgrade excludarr.

I have changed the commands a bit. The delete command is being replaced with exclude. You can choose your action with the -a flag.

To just keep deleting the movies using the previous way use:

excludarr -a delete

To change the status to not monitored:

# Change the status to not monitored and leave the files
excludarr -a not-monitored

# Change the status to not monitored and delete the files as well
excludarr -a not-monitored -d

Please let me know what you think and if you need any adjustments!

[KaHooli]

The update doesn't appear to read the settings in /etc/excludarr/excludarr.yml anymore, as it is looking for localhost for Radarr and not the hostname I've specified.

[haijeploeg]

Hi Kahooli,

I have checked this on my own environment, but I don't have this problem. Are you sure you dont have a excludarr.yml in your current folder? And has the user permissions to the config file?

To identify which configfile it is using, can you run and post the output here?:

excludarr --debug

[KaHooli]

Here is the output...

Hi,

The following line says that it is reading the config file:

Can you post the content that file?

I have added a official Docker container (#8), please use that one and verify if that containers works properly.

It looks like that file got overwritten with default values last time I ran excludarr, which is why it was looking at the wrong address. Luckily I have a backup.

[KaHooli]

I have added a official Docker container (#8), please use that one and verify if that containers works properly.

I've done this, which seemed to work better, I'll post results in that thread.

[haijeploeg]

Great! If this is all working fine, please close this issue.

[KaHooli]

Is there an option to prevent excludarr from prompting Are you sure you want to change the status of the movies to: not-monitored? (y/N) so I can force Y?

If not, could this be added down the track? I'd like to be able to schedule the automated running of this program eventually (eg chron).

[haijeploeg]

Yep there is, you can use the -f flag, that will bypass the prompt :)

[KaHooli]

I thought that might, just wasn't sure because of the help text.

Thanks again for all your work!

[haijeploeg]

There was actually a bug in it I noticed after your question. I have fixed this and released a new version. You can update to v0.1.4 now.
