That one needs to be in this format: ['email@domain.com']
Is it in that format?
It was not, but now it is, and Success!
How do I schedule this to run on OSX weekly?

Great news!
You need to create a cron job. Here is a tutorial: http://www.maclife.com/article/columns/terminal_101_creating_cron_jobs

Thanks, I'll check that out. One more question: How exactly does cloudinary work here? Is it a substitute for not having a webserver? If so, can I use it for the web page when I click on the View as Web Page link?

It's an image hosting service like imgur or photobucket, but does not have any upload limits. Sadly it won't replace a web server. It's main purpose is to have images work on all email providers (I.e. Hotmail has issues with attached images).

Got it. Thanks for helping me with this!
Thanks,
Still no go though. Had to compile Python2.7.9 using these instructions (otherwise it compiles without zlib): http://stackoverflow.com/a/27132584
sqlite3 still not the correct version though:
Ok, set up a dev box with a fresh install of cent OS and got the script working by doing the following:
Install dev tools
yum groupinstall "Development tools" yum install zlib-devel bzip2-devel openssl-devel ncurses-devel sqlite-devel readline-devel tk-devel gdbm-devel db4-devel libpcap-devel xz-devel
Install Python 2.7
wget https://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.7.9/Python-2.7.9.tgz tar -xvf Python-2.7.9.tgz cd Python-2.7.9 ./configure --prefix=/usr/local --enable-shared LDFLAGS="-Wl,-rpath /usr/local/lib" make & make altinstall
Install requests module
wget https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/raw/bootstrap/ez_setup.py python2.7 ez_setup.py easy_install-2.7 pip pip2.7 install requests
Install correct version of sqlite (does not affect the version the OS relies on)
wget http://www.sqlite.org/2014/sqlite-autoconf-3080500.tar.gz tar -xvf sqlite-autoconf-3080500.tar.gz cd sqlite-autoconf-3080500.tar.gz ./configure --prefix=/opt/sqlite3.8.5 \ --disable-static \ CFLAGS=" -Os \ -frecord-gcc-switches \ -DSQLITE_ENABLE_COLUMN_METADATA=1" make & makeinstall
Temporarily change the version of sqlite for the run of the python scrip and then set it back. Update python2.7 ./plexEmail.py with the correct path to the script
export LPATH_BAK=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH ; export PATH_BAK=$PATH && \ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/mono/lib:/opt/sqlite3.8.5/lib && \ export PATH=/opt/mono/bin:/opt/sqlite3.8.5/bin:$PATH && \ python2.7 ./plexEmail.py ; \ export PATH=$PATH_BAK ; export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LPATH_BAK
Let me know if this works for you!
This looks great and I'd love to test it a bit before I start sending out the emails but I can't seem to get the site up and running.
I added the web folder to my www, renamed it to plexemail, and ran the vbs but when I go to access the site localhost/plexemail only a directory comes up that looks like whats inside the web folder.
I assumed this would work like plexwwwatch or plexwatchweb where I just add a folder to my www and access it with localhost/plexwwwatch etc...
When I look in the web folder theres no html or php files...
So how do I test the webpage alone?

Running the script will create the index.html page.

I thought so, so I have something wrong in the config file. Back to the drawing board.

Feel free to send me the config file to look at later today.

Wow, thanks for going through all that effort. Really appreciate it, will give it a go tomorrow.
Any recommendations on what webserver to use on windows 8 machine. This will be my very first time to setup a& use a webserver and it will be exclusively for this and PlexWWWWatch

I've used both apache and Wamp on my box with Windows 8. Wamp is a bit easier to set up: http://www.wampserver.com/en/
v0.5.0 Released

sorry i’ve this error when i start python script (i’m running on linux ubuntu 14.04), how can i fix that?
on com.plexapp.plugins.library.db i’ve this permissions : 644

EDIT: I’ve changed permissions and now it works fine
Hi, everyone. I've recently gotten PlexWatch/Web working, after loving PlexWatch for almost a year now. I just found this script, and I'd love to implement it on my system; I love the idea of notifying people when I add new items to my server.
I've installed the pre-requisites, edited the config file, and run the script. Unfortunately, other than not receiving an email, I cannot determine if this is working or not. I don't need the website portion, I'd just love it if the email worked. Any tips?

Glad to hear it works now, I was going to suggest a permissions issue since the error was on the execute instead of the connection.

The script should tell you if it failed to send emails or how many emails it was able to send. Could you give me what the script outputs when you run it? Also, feel free to send me the config file for me to take a look at (edit out personal info).

If I run the script from the Window command prompt, I get:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "c:\python27\scripts\plexemail.py", line 9, in
import requests
ImportError: No module named requests
I will freely admit that I know nothing about Python, so maybe I'm just not doing something right. I made sure to install the prerequisites you list in your installation instructions as well. I know that when I run the scheduled task, I get a "task ran successfully" message from Task Scheduler, but the command line result says different. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Looks like you are missing the requests module. For Windows you can download it here: https://github.com/kennethreitz/requests/archive/v2.5.1.zip
Extract the requests folder to the Lib folder in your python installation. For example: C:\python27\Lib\

I actually had the 2.5.3 version of that, but I had put the entire folder in "lib". Fixed that, now I'm closer! To wit:
File "c:\python27\scripts\plexemail.py", line 701, in
imageInfo = processImage(hash, imageInfo['thumb'], 'show', 0, 0)
File "c:\python27\scripts\plexemail.py", line 169, in processImage
category = thumb[0:thumb.index('/')]
ValueError: substring not found
BTW your response time is incredible. I really appreciate your dedication to the nerdier members of the Plex community. ;)
