Configuring MyAnimeList is optional but is required for MyAnimeList based collections to function.

A mal mapping is in the root of the config file.

Below is a mal mapping example and the full set of attributes:

mal:
  client_id: ################################
  client_secret: ################################################################
  authorization:
    access_token:
    token_type:
    expires_in:
    refresh_token:
Name Attribute Allowed Values Default Required
Client ID client_id MyAnimeList Application Client ID N/A ✔️
Client Secret client_secret MyAnimeList Application Client Secret N/A ✔️

  • All other attributes will be filled in by the script.

  • To connect to MyAnimeList.net you must create a MyAnimeList application and supply the script the client id and client secret provided, please do the following:

  1. Click here to create a MyAnimeList API application.
  2. Enter an App Name for the application. Ex. Plex Meta Manager
  3. Select web for App Type.
  4. Enter an App Description for the application Ex. Plex Meta Manager manages metadata and collections
  5. Enter http://localhost/ for App Redirect URL.
  6. Enter https://github.com/meisnate12/Plex-Meta-Manager for Homepage URL.
  7. Select non-commercial for Commercial / Non-Commercial.
  8. Enter any name under Name / Company Name.
  9. Select hobbyist for Purpose of Use.
  10. Agree to the API License and Developer Agreement and hit the Submit button
  11. You should see Successfully registered. followed by a link that says Return to list click this link.
  12. On this page Click the Edit button next to the application you just created.
  13. Record the Client ID and Client Secret found on the application page.
  • On the first run, the script will walk the user through the OAuth flow by producing a MyAnimeList URL for the user to follow. After following the URL login to MyAnimeList.net and authorize the application by clicking the Allow button which will redirect the user to http://localhost/. Copy the entire URL and paste it into the scrip and if the URL is correct then the script will populate the authorization sub-attributes to use in subsequent runs.

OAuth Flow using Docker

To authenticate MyAnimeList the first time, you need run the container with the -it flags in order to walk through the OAuth flow mentioned above. Once you have the MyAnimeList authentication data saved into the YAML, you'll be able to run the container normally.

OAuth Flow using unRAID Docker

Directions on how to authenticate MyAnimeList on unRAID can be found on the unRAID Installation page.
