Library Tag Exclusion not working

[mlamoure]

I do not believe the tag exclusion is working for libraries, if I understand how it's supposed to work. I set up a tag in both Sonarr and Radarr for "never_expire" and added that to the Deleterr config. However a dry-run showed that it would have deleted several movies and shows that are tagged with this tag.

Yeah I honestly expected this one to cause confusion. Every metadata aspect is checked against plex, I think tags are actually called labels there. But regardless these settings need to be clearer, and maybe more broad. I could do:

libraries:
  - name: "Movies"
    ...
    exclude:
      plex:
        titles: ["Forrest Gump"]
        tags: ["children", "favorite"]
        genres: ["horror", "thriller"]
        collections: ["Marvel Cinematic Universe"]
        actors: ["Tom Cruise", "Brad Pitt"]
        producers: ["Steven Spielberg"]
        directors: ["Makoto Shinkai"]
        writers: ["Hayao Miyazaki"]
        studios: ["Studio Ghibli"]
        release_years: 5
      radarr:
        tags: ["some tag"]
        languages: ["en", "pt"]
        profiles: ["1080p"]
      trakt:
        max_items_per_list: 200
        lists:
          [
            "https://trakt.tv/movies/trending",
            "https://trakt.tv/movies/popular",
            "https://trakt.tv/movies/watched/yearly",
            "https://trakt.tv/movies/collected/yearly",
            "https://trakt.tv/users/justin/lists/imdb-top-rated-movies"
          ]

What do you think? It's way more robust but I'm afraid the overlapping settings could cause some confusion.

Another alternative is to check each field against every field that possible maps on each provider, but that makes what is happening way less obvious.

Yes I like the approach you outlined in the config. Makes sense to organize the exclusion criteria based on where it comes from. I would rename tags to labels in the plex section. Happy to test If you'd like.

Wondering if you plan to progress this one in the near term? Eagerly awaiting this as I will be able to retire the poorly built system I wrote myself that does this same thing.

@mlamoure yes, I have an ongoing branch with these changes I have just been lacking the time to dedicate myself to it, my bad.

Awesome! Thanks for the update. Eagerly following progress.
