Installation

The easiest way to install this collection of scripts is with pip. You can not use the latest version of pip though.

pip install git+https://github.com/patzm/plex-toolbox

If this is done inside a virtualenv, all scripts have been installed to the PATH. They can then directly be used from the command line. Otherwise, make sure that the bin folder of the used pip distribution is in the PATH. For instance, installing with pip install --user ... will usually install into ~/.local/bin.
