# plexbrainz - scrobble your plex music plays into listenbrainz

## What is this?

This is a self-hosted service which provide a webhook for your plex
server to hit, uploading each music track's title, artist and album
to listenbrainz.

It works similarly to https://eavesdrop.fm but is self-hosted, with
a single binary that weighs in at <30Mb.

## What do I need?

* Docker
* Your listenbrainz "User Token" (found at https://listenbrainz.org/settings/)
* Your Plex username, this ensures that only your plays are scrobbled, and not those of other users on your plex server (found at https://app.plex.tv/desktop/#!/settings/account)
* The name(s) of your Plex music libraries (to ensure that other media types are not scrobbled)
* A Plex Pass subscription (webhooks are a Plex Pass feature)

## Setup

* Copy the docker-compose.yml from here to a directory on your 
  docker host.
* Change the environment variables to match your account details.
  * If you have multiple music libraries, you can add them separated
    by commas, no spaces around the commas.
* `docker compose up -d`
* Check logs with `docker compose logs -f`

You can then add the webhook to plex, the config page is at:

    https://app.plex.tv/desktop/#!/settings/webhooks

And the webhook will be something like:

    http://1.2.3.4:9102/plex

Change the IP address to that of your docker host.
