Trakt and MyAnimeList Authentication¶

When trying to authorize Trakt or MyAnimeList, Kometa needs to run in interactive mode so that you can enter details. This is problematic on some setups [namely docker] where entering interactive mode is not always simple.

These webapps allow you to authorize Trakt and MyAnimeList outside of a Kometa run. Once authorized, you will have a YAML block that you will copy into the config.yml, replacing the existing trakt and/or myanimelist sections.

Nothing is cached or retained.

The source code can be found here.

Usage¶

Choose the authentication you are interested in.
Follow the prompts
Copy and paste the result into your Kometa config.

Running this Locally¶

For users who want full control over this and would prefer to run them locally, you can do so by following the instructions in the repo.

YAML Lists Explained

YAML supports different ways to define lists. Below are some common methods:

1. List Within a Mapping

fruits:
  - apple
  - banana
  - cherry

2. Inline Style

fruits: [ apple, banana, cherry ]

Each style can be used depending on your needs. The block style is typically more readable for longer lists, while the inline style is compact and useful for short lists.

YAML Dictionaries Explained

Dictionaries are used to associate key/value pairs that are unordered. Dictionaries can be nested by increasing the indentation, or new dictionaries can be created at the same level by resolving the previous one.

cache: true
cache_expiration: 60

The "keys" are cache and cache_expiration and the "values" are true and 60 respectively.

These filters only work if the URL is to the List View of the Letterboxd list (i.e. it should have /detail/ in the URL) or to an account's Reviews (i.e. it should have /USERNAME/films/reviews/ in the URL).

This filter only works if the URL is to the List View of the Letterboxd list (i.e. it should have /detail/ in the URL).

When title is not provided and the mapping name was not specified as an ID, the default behaviour is to use the mapping name as title for matching.

When mapping_id is not provided and the mapping name was specified as an ID, the default behaviour is to use the mapping name as mapping_id for matching.

When the server does not have a Plex Pass then the Edition Field is not accessible. In this scenario, Kometa will check the movie's filepath for {edition-...} to determine what the edition is.

Each default has a key that when calling to effect a specific collection/overlay you must replace <<key>> with when calling.

You can use current_year to have Kometa use the current year's value. This can be combined with a -# at the end to subtract that number of years. i.e. current_year-2
