influxdb-plex

A python script for sending plex stats to influxdb

Forked from https://github.com/rickatnight11/collectd-plex

All I have done is strip out the collectd code and enable writing to influxdb

Requirements

• Plex.tv authentication token (see included get_auth_token.py script)
• Plex Media Server
• influxdb

Configuration

Required:

• Host - Plex server hostname
• Port - Plex server port
• AuthToken - Plex.tv authentication token

Optional:

• HTTPS - use HTTPS instead of HTTP (defaults to True)
• Sessions - collect active session count (defaults to True)
• Movies - collect movie counts (defaults to True)
• Shows - collect show counts (defaults to True)
• Episodes - collect episode counts (defaults to True)
• Include - sections to collect media counts for (assumes all, if excluded)
• Exclude - sections to ignore media counts for (assumes all, if excluded)

Usage

python path/to/script/plex.py Host Port Authtoken
