## Kometa Defaults
|
|
|
|
Want your library to look like the above images? With the [Kometa Defaults](https://kometa.wiki/en/latest/defaults/guide/) you can! These powerful and modular files were designed by the Kometa team to make it simple to create a personalized, one-of-a-kind media collection without the hassle of manually defining each one.
|
|
|
|
Want to see what the community has to offer? Check out the [Kometa Community Configs](https://github.com/Kometa-Team/Community-Configs) repository on GitHub to see user-submitted configuration files, or even add your own to the mix!
|
|
|
|
With Kometa, you can also manage metadata for all your media types, from movies and shows to music and more. And since your metadata is managed outside your libraries, you'll never have to worry about losing your customizations in the event of a media server database loss, you can simply reapply them! It is also easy to move your customizations between servers if you need to.
|
|
|
|
## Getting Started
|
|
|
|
To get started with Kometa, follow these simple steps:
|
|
|
|
1. Install Kometa on your device. You can find the installation instructions for a variety of platforms [here](https://kometa.wiki/en/latest/kometa/install/overview/).
|
|
|
|
2. Once you have installed Kometa, create your [Configuration File](https://kometa.wiki/en/latest/config/overview/). This file contains important information such as URLs and credentials needed to connect to services like Plex and TMDb
|
|
|
|
3. After creating the Configuration File, you can start updating Metadata and building automatic Collections by creating a [Collection File](https://kometa.wiki/en/latest/files/collections/) for each Library you want to work with. If you'd rather use some of our pre-made Collection Files, take a look at the [Kometa Defaults](https://kometa.wiki/en/latest/defaults/guide/)
|
|
|
|
4. Finally, check out the [Wiki](https://kometa.wiki/), you'll find new and exciting ways to truly unlock the potential of your libraries.
|
|
|
|
## Step-by-Step Guides
|
|
|
|
If you're a beginner to the concepts of Python, Git and/or Kometa and find the above steps challenging, don't worry. We've got some step-by-step guides that can help you get started. These guides will take you through the process of installing Kometa, creating your Configuration File and getting some basic Collections up and running.
|
|
|
|
For those who need full installation walkthroughs, please refer to the following walkthrough guides:
|
|
|
|
* [Local Walkthrough](https://kometa.wiki/en/latest/kometa/install/local/) - follow this if you are running the script directly on Windows, OS X, or Linux
|
|
* [Docker Walkthrough](https://kometa.wiki/en/latest/kometa/install/docker/) - this discusses using Docker at the command line
|
|
|
|
If you are using unRAID, Kubernetes, QNAP, or Synology refer to the following basic guide to Docker container setup for each system:
|
|
|
|
**this doesn't cover the Kometa setup specifics found in the guides above with regard to creating the config file and collection file, so you may want to go through the [Docker Walkthrough](https://kometa.wiki/en/latest/kometa/install/docker/) first on your computer to gain that understanding.**
|
|
|
|
* [unRAID Walkthrough](https://kometa.wiki/en/latest/kometa/install/unraid/)
|
|
* [Kubernetes Walkthrough](https://kometa.wiki/en/latest/kometa/install/kubernetes/)
|
|
* [QNAP Walkthrough](https://kometa.wiki/en/latest/kometa/install/qnap/)
|
|
* [Synology Walkthrough](https://kometa.wiki/en/latest/kometa/install/synology/)
|
|
|
|
## Example Usage
|
|
|
|
Kometa puts you in control of your media library by letting you create custom Collections that make discovering and organizing your content a breeze. With powerful search and filtering options, you can build Collections based on popular builders like TMDb, IMDb, Trakt, and many more.
|
|
|
|
Imagine having Collections like these at your fingertips:
|
|
|
|
* Trending and Popular (based on TMDb, IMDb, Trakt, etc.)
|
|
* Streaming Services (like Netflix, Disney+, and more)
|
|
* Networks
|
|
* Studios
|
|
* Genres
|
|
* Actors
|
|
* Decades
|
|
|
|
Kometa gives you endless possibilities to curate and organize your media library any way you want. Create custom Collections and Overlays that fit your unique preferences and make discovering your content effortless.
|
|
|
|
But if you don't want to spend time manually creating Collections and Overlays, we've got you covered. Check out the [Kometa Defaults](https://kometa.wiki/en/latest/defaults/guide/) - a handcrafted selection of tried-and-tested Collections and Overlays made by the Kometa team.

|
|
|
## Develop & Nightly Branches
|
|
|
|
The Develop and Nightly branches are "beta" versions of Kometa that are updated more frequently than the stable version (Master branch). These branches are where bug fixes, new features, and other changes are added before being released to the Master branch.
|
|
|
|
However, these branches (especially Nightly) are recommended for more technical users who don't mind updating frequently to get the latest changes. Keep in mind that these beta branches may have bugs or other issues that could cause problems with Kometa or your media server. So, if you're not comfortable with technical issues, it's best to stick with the Master branch.

[![Develop GitHub commits since latest stable release (by SemVer)](https://img.shields.io/github/commits-since/Kometa-Team/Kometa/latest/develop?label=Commits%20in%20Develop&style=plastic)](https://github.com/Kometa-Team/Kometa/tree/develop)
|
|
|
|
The [develop](https://github.com/Kometa-Team/Kometa/tree/develop) branch has the most updated **documented** fixes and enhancements to Kometa. This version is tested and documented to some degree, but it is still an active Develop branch, so there may be rough edges.
|
|
|
|
Switching to `develop`:
|
|
````{tab} Running in Docker
|
|
Add ":develop" to the image name in your run command or configuration:
|
|
```
|
|
kometateam/kometa:develop
|
|
```
|
|
````
|
|
````{tab} Running on the Host
|
|
In the directory where you cloned Kometa:
|
|
```bash
|
|
git checkout develop
|
|
```
|
|
To switch back:
|
|
```bash
|
|
git checkout master
|
|
```
|
|
````
|
|
|
|
If switching to the develop branch, it is recommended to also use the [develop branch of the wiki](https://kometa.wiki/en/develop/), which documents any changes made from the Master branch.

|
|
|
|
**This branch will have squashed commits which can cause `git pull`/`git fetch` to error you can use `git reset origin/nightly --hard` to fix the branch.**
|
|
|
|
There is also a [nightly](https://github.com/Kometa-Team/Kometa/tree/nightly) branch which will have the absolute latest version of the script, but it could easily break, there is no guarantee that it even works, and any new features will not be documented until they have progressed enough to reach the develop branch.
|
|
|
|
Switching to `nightly`:
|
|
|
|
````{tab} Running in Docker
|
|
Add ":nightly" to the image name in your run command or configuration:
|
|
```
|
|
kometateam/kometa:nightly
|
|
```
|
|
````
|
|
````{tab} Running on the Host
|
|
In the directory where you cloned Kometa:
|
|
```bash
|
|
git checkout nightly
|

```
|
|
To switch back:
|
|
```bash
|
|
git checkout master
|
|
```
|
|
````
|
|
|
|
As this branch is subject to extreme change, there is no promise of the feature being documented in the [nightly](https://kometa.wiki/en/nightly/) branch of the wiki and all discussions relating to changes made in the nightly branch will be held within the [Kometa Discord Server](https://kometa.wiki/en/latest/discord/).
