Shell/Bash/powershell Script Auto Deployment via wget

Feature Suggestions

Hey Plex,

I have had to rebuild my server a few times as I ran out of hard disk space or insert other reason. I created a script that takes my deployment time down from about an hour to 5 minutes; however, I would like to requests a standard download URL for latest versions of plex.

I am using wget right now to download a static version of plex; however, I am wanting you guys to deploy or create a "/latestversion URI so when I reference a version RPM it always gets that latest version for deployment/install.

Example:
#Download PlexMediaServer
Current:
wget https://downloads.plex.tv/plex-media-server/1.13.9.5439-7303bc002/plexmediaserver-1.13.9.5439-7303bc002.x86_64.rpm

#Download PlexMediaServer
wget https://downloads.plex.tv/plex-media-server/currentversion (or something to that effect).rpm

Is this a feature or is this something you can look into?

im sure you can work the rest out from that…

If you built it once, made backup tarballs periodically, PMS can be installed cold from backup in under 2 minutes. Relatively trivial in a short script.
