PlexUpdate Plugin
=================
``plexupdate`` is a very simple plugin for beets that lets you automatically
update `Plex`_'s music library whenever you change your beets library.
Firstly, install ``beets`` with ``plexupdate`` extra
.. code-block:: console
pip install "beets[plexupdate]"
Then, enable ``plexupdate`` plugin it in your configuration (see :ref:`using-plugins`).
Optionally, configure the specifics of your Plex server. You can do this using
a ``plex:`` section in your ``config.yaml``:
.. code-block:: yaml
plex:
host: "localhost"
port: 32400
token: "TOKEN"
The ``token`` key is optional: you'll need to use it when in a Plex Home (see Plex's own `documentation about tokens`_).
With that all in place, you'll see beets send the "update" command to your Plex
server every time you change your beets library.
