possible to use without Radarr/Sonarr? #33

I don't use either services so I was wondering if plex_autoscan would work without them? Is it possible to use an external service to send a POST request to trigger a scan?

If you turn SERVER_ALLOW_MANUAL_SCAN on, you can trigger scans with:

curl -d "eventType=Manual&filepath=/mnt/unionfs/Media/Movies/Shut In (20166f533t In (2016) - Bluray-1080p.x264.DTS-GECKOS.mkv" http://localhost:3468/0c1fa3c9867e48b1bb3aa055cb86
