Plex library check #362

Open deepvalu opened 3 months ago

deepvalu commented 3 months ago

Check Plex library before scraping.

dreulavelle commented 2 months ago

The "Library" is the symlinks, if a symlink doesnt exist, then we scrape.

deepvalu commented 2 months ago

Boo! I will pay you 50 dollars to make it an option.

dreulavelle commented 2 months ago

As much as I'd love to take your money lol, this option would be redundant since we already check the Symlink Library. Theres just no point in checking both.

Why check Plex when we can go to the "source" to see if the file is even there? ;)

deepvalu commented 2 months ago

Because I use other tools to add content. I might want a local copy or use debris media manger to pick a specific quality for only one movie. Also it saves me the time of having to backfill my current library.

dreulavelle commented 2 months ago

Hmm..

What would you want it to do, or look like? User settings?

deepvalu commented 2 months ago

Ideally a toggle to choose whether or not Riven uses the symlink library or plex library as the source of truth.

dreulavelle commented 2 months ago

oof lol..

switching source of truth's like that is a recipe for disaster I feel like..

deepvalu commented 2 months ago

How so? If you switched couldn't you just rebuild the database?

dreulavelle commented 2 months ago

I suppose we could drop the tables and rebuild
