get_all_libraries

A library section (commonly referred to as just a library) is a collection of media. Libraries are typed, and depending on their type provide either a flat or a hierarchical view of the media. For example, a music library has an artist > albums > tracks structure, whereas a movie library is flat.

Libraries have features beyond just being a collection of media; for starters, they include information about supported types, filters and sorts. This allows a client to provide a rich interface around the media (e.g. allow sorting movies by release year).

Example Usage

require 'plex_ruby_sdk'

s = ::PlexRubySDK::PlexAPI.new(
      security: ::PlexRubySDK::Shared::Security.new(
        access_token: "<YOUR_API_KEY_HERE>",
      ),
    )

res = s.library.get_all_libraries()

if ! res.object.nil?
  # handle response
end

Response

T.nilable(::PlexRubySDK::Operations::GetAllLibrariesResponse)

get_library_details

Library Details Endpoint

This endpoint provides comprehensive details about the library, focusing on organizational aspects rather than the content itself.

The details include:

Directories

Organized into three categories:

  • Primary Directories:

    • Used in some clients for quick access to media subsets (e.g., "All", "On Deck").
    • Most can be replicated via media queries.
    • Customizable by users.

  • Secondary Directories:

    • Marked with secondary="1".
    • Used in older clients for structured navigation.

  • Special Directories:

    • Includes a "By Folder" entry for filesystem-based browsing.
    • Contains an obsolete search="1" entry for on-the-fly search dialog creation.

Types

Each type in the library comes with a set of filters and sorts, aiding in building dynamic media controls:

  • Type Object Attributes:

    • key: Endpoint for the media list of this type.
    • type: Metadata type (if standard Plex type).
    • title: Title for this content type (e.g., "Movies").

  • Filter Objects:

    • Subset of the media query language.
    • Attributes include filter (name), filterType (data type), key (endpoint for value range), and title.

  • Sort Objects:

    • Description of sort fields.
    • Attributes include defaultDirection (asc/desc), descKey and key (sort parameters), and title.

Note

: Filters and sorts are optional; without them, no filtering controls are rendered.

Example Usage

require 'plex_ruby_sdk'

s = ::PlexRubySDK::PlexAPI.new(
      security: ::PlexRubySDK::Shared::Security.new(
        access_token: "<YOUR_API_KEY_HERE>",
      ),
    )

res = s.library.get_library_details(section_key=9518, include_details=::PlexRubySDK::Operations::IncludeDetails::ZERO)

if ! res.object.nil?
  # handle response
end

Parameters

Parameter Type Required Description Example

Note: This is unique in the context of the Plex server.
 9518
include_details T.nilable(::PlexRubySDK::Operations::IncludeDetails) ➖ Whether or not to include details for a section (types, filters, and sorts).
Only exists for backwards compatibility, media providers other than the server libraries have it on always.

Response

T.nilable(::PlexRubySDK::Operations::GetLibraryDetailsResponse)
