I know in the past I’ve seen various command-line invocations sprinkled around the forum for plex/8.
Is there any kind of reference for 9 that for either the server or client? I’m just looking for little things, like triggering a pms rescan, etc., but having a full list of what can be done outside the GUI would be very nice.
hi there!
I know how you can trigger a rescan in the terminal. it goes a little something like this:
create alias for easy typing
$ alias pms="~/Library/Application\ Support/Plex/Plex\ Media\ Server.app/Contents/MacOS/Plex\ Media\ Scanner"
# this will show you all ID's of sections you've made in the media manager
$ pms --list
# you can then refresh any individual section like so (replace the "X" with the appropriate ID):
$ pms --scan --section X
# this will show you all available options for PMS:
$ pms --help
I'm not sure if all options that are displayed are fully functional, but tis should help you get started.
