Options to sync one way or the other

[bbakermmc]

It would be nice to configure the syncing ways. Maybe I want to update track from one server but not pull the tracking down, etc. Also option to toggle TV or Movies

[Taxel]

I added some more config options and pushed them to the branch new-features
This does not contain the option for TV shows or Movies individually, though.
Could you try it out, see if it works and propose how I could structure the config files to allow selecting only movies or only shows without making the config too hard to understand?

[bbakermmc]

Im the worst person to ask if someone can understand a config file lol. Im a Sr Software Eng lol. But in .Net/Sql :) I think python is so horrid with its tab/space formatting.

I pulled it down and is running now. Ill see what errors I get. Its not any faster thats for sure :P

The decoder hates me: Maybe try catch this, otherwise it stops the entire process.

The connection errors are nothing I can prevent (and I think the program should terminate instead of silently throwing the error in the log, so that's intended behavior), but I added a try-except block around the line where the JSONDecodeError is thrown.
Before merging those changes to the master branch I will probably just run the whole function in a try-except block since the increased readability should be more important than the minuscule performance impact this has.
Concerning the config file: In that case, you might have a bit more experience in best practices for something like that, compared to a computer science student who's about to complete his master ;)

[Taxel]

So this error does not appear all the time or at the same PlexAPI call, right?
In that case and to settle the config debate: Simply define, how you would structure the config file so it fills all your needs, there do not seem to be any more people who would like this feature, so I'll add it for your needs and whoever also needs this feature needs to use the same format and if it confuses many people I'll just change the code. Sounds good?

[bbakermmc]

The config is fine for me lol. Its the least of any issues :P Yeah the decode/connection errors are random.

[oxivanisher]

Is there an update for this? I would like to rewatch a series, but its always marking it watched :D

Ditto!

you need to remove it out of trakt, seems like a dumb use case honestly.

[jofotoo]

People re-watch things all the time. Trakt supports it, so it should be considered as an option. For certain things, trakt should be considered 'truth' and for some plex should be.

You need plex to support your issue lol Not this plugin. Two diff things, This plugin sycns status from trakt to plex and vice versa, now you want a UI to reset your watched history in trakt, then reset it in plex, You can easly do this manually w/out any help. Login in to trakt, remove all watched history for the show/season, and then reset watched in plex. Otherwise maybe you can open your request in a diff issue. I stand by my statement. You can always open your own feature request.

[zaibas]

the new features branch doesnt exist anymore correct? has the ability to choose via config what to sync trakt->plex or plex->trakt been rolled into the master branch? using a config formatted as above did not work for me

[simonc56]

A branch named new-features was created with the solution. But it has not been merged.

Such branch does not exist

new-features branch was precisely here 6849724
I recreated it.
Concerned commit implementing the one-way sync is 65db50d
