Common Sense Media Content Rating Default Metadata File

The content_rating_cs Metadata File is used to dynamically create collections based on the content ratings available in your library.

If you do not use the UK-based rating system within Plex, this file will attempt to match the standard ratings (such as PG-13) to the respective UK rating system (such as 12)

Example Collections Created:

The below YAML in your config.yml will create the collections:

libraries:
  Movies:
    metadata_path:
      - pmm: content_rating_cs

Template Variables

Template Variables can be used to manipulate the file from the default settings which are provided.

Note that the templates_variables: section only needs to be used if you do NOT want to use the default settings.

All Shared Variables are available as well as the additional Variables below which can be used to customize the file.

Variable	Description & Values
`sort_by`	Description: Controls the sort method for the collections Values: Any sort method in the Sorts Options Table
`include`	Description: Overrides the default include list Values: Any Content Rating found in your library
`exclude`	Description: Overrides the default exclude list Values: Any Content Rating found in your library
`addons`	Description: Defines how multiple keys can be combined under a parent key. The parent key doesn't have to already exist in Plex Values: Any Content Rating found in your library
`append_include`	Description: Appends to the existing include list Values: Any Content Rating found in your library
`append_exclude`	Description: Appends to the existing exclude list Values: Any Content Rating found in your library

The below is an example config.yml extract with some Template Variables added in to change how the file works.

              - de/18 # adds "de/18" to the existing "18" addon list
          sort_by: title.asc
          collection_section: 21
          collection_mode: show_items
