# Plex Management Script Documentation
|
|
|
|
This document provides an overview and step-by-step explanation of the `plex.sh` script. This script is used to manage the Plex Media Server service on a systemd-based Linux distribution.
|
|
|
|
## Script Overview
|
|
|
|
The script performs the following main tasks:
|
|
|
|
1. Starts the Plex Media Server.
|
|
2. Stops the Plex Media Server.
|
|
3. Restarts the Plex Media Server.
|
|
4. Displays the current status of the Plex Media Server.
|
|
|
|
## Detailed Steps
|
|
|
|
### 1. Start Plex Media Server
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
start_plex() {
|
|
sudo systemctl start plexmediaserver
|
|
echo "Plex Media Server started."
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This function starts the Plex Media Server using `systemctl`.
|
|
|
|
### 2. Stop Plex Media Server
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
stop_plex() {
|
|
sudo systemctl stop plexmediaserver
|
|
echo "Plex Media Server stopped."
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This function stops the Plex Media Server using `systemctl`.
|
|
|
|
### 3. Restart Plex Media Server
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
restart_plex() {
|
|
sudo systemctl restart plexmediaserver
|
|
echo "Plex Media Server restarted."
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This function restarts the Plex Media Server using `systemctl`.
|
|
|
|
### 4. Display Plex Media Server Status
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
status_plex() {
|
|
sudo systemctl status plexmediaserver
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This function displays the current status of the Plex Media Server using `systemctl`.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
To use the script, run it with one of the following parameters:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
./plex.sh {start|stop|restart|status}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- `start`: Starts the Plex Media Server.
|
|
- `stop`: Stops the Plex Media Server.
|
|
- `restart`: Restarts the Plex Media Server.
|
|
- `status`: Displays the current status of the Plex Media Server.
|

## Important Information
|
|
|
|
- Ensure that the script is executable. You can make it executable with the following command:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
chmod +x plex.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- The script uses `systemctl` to manage the Plex Media Server service. Ensure that `systemctl` is available on your system.
|
|
- The script requires `sudo` privileges to manage the Plex Media Server service. Ensure that you have the necessary permissions to run the script with `sudo`.
