JAV-Sort-Scrape-javlibrary

[Dec 16, 2019] Final Update

The JAV-Sort-Scrape-javlibrary repository is officially put on maintenance mode and will not receive any future updates. Please check out the successor to this project, Javinizer.

The JAV-Sort-Scrape-javlibrary repository is a series of scripts used to manage your local JAV (Japanese Adult Video) library. It automatically scrapes content from JavLibrary, R18, and 7mmtv to create an easily usable content library within Emby or Jellyfin. My goal in maintining this project is for it to function as a simple and lightweight alternative to [JAVMovieScraper](https://github.com/DoctorD1501 JAVMovieScraper). If you have any questions, criticisms, or requests, or want to be kept up-to-date of any new features and releases, feel free to hop into my discord channel.

Big thanks to the original author of the sort_jav.py script /u/Oppaira.

Getting Started

Prerequisities

Python 3.5+
- Pillow
- cfscrape - requires Node.js
- cloudscraper
PowerShell 5.0 or higher (6.0+ recommended)

Installing

Clone the repository or download the latest release.

Install Pillow module on Python

# Required to crop cover images
> pip install Pillow

Install cfscrape module on Python

# Required to scrape JavLibrary
# If you are using the latest release, install cfscrape
# If you cloned the repository, install cloudscraper

# Used in latest commit in master
> pip install cloudscraper

# Used in latest release
> pip install cfscrape

Install Node.js

Download and install from here.

You will need PowerShell v5.0 or higher installed to run any of the .ps1 scripts (PowerShell 5.0 is installed on Windows 10 by default). If you get a Remote-ExecutionPolicy error when running, open an administrator PowerShell prompt, and run the following to unrestrict the scripts:

PS> Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted

Usage

Before running any of the scripts, configure your settings in settings_sort_jav.ini. Documentation for each option is listed in the settings file, with defaults set to my best practice guideline. Most notably, you will need to change each of the path settings to match your local directory structure. Completely read through this section, the Notes, and FAQ section before using.

If you are running this for the first time and you have many directories of videos, you can run the sort_jav.py or Set-JAVNfo.ps1 scripts concurrently with many different paths. Simply edit the path in your settings file, save, and run the script. Edit path and run again, etc.

To run PowerShell (.ps1) scripts, right click the file and select "Run with PowerShell". To run Python (.py) scripts, double click to run. You can also invoke the scripts from a non-administrator shell like shown in the demo.

Run order

The scripts are numbered in the order that they should be run. They were written with ease-of-use in mind, so they are a one-click solution once your settings are configured properly.

Run sort_jav.py to sort your JAV files. - Stop here if you don't use any media servers that use .nfo metadata
Run Get-R18ThumbUrls.ps1 to scrape R18 and get actor thumbnail urls and write to .csv spreadsheet specified in r18-export-csv-path (you only need to do this once every so often when new actors are added to R18).
- I have provided two recently scraped spreadsheets in the repository as emby_actor_thumbs/R18-Aug-30-2019.csv Use last-first if your name-order in your settings is set to last, and vice-versa.
Run Set-JAVNfo.ps1 to create .nfo metadata files for each video. - Stop here if you are using Plex or you don't want actor images in Emby/Jellyfin
- You can re-run this script on existing directories to replace old metadata files if you make changes to your settings
Go to your Emby server and make sure all your videos are imported. This is important, as the next step will call Emby's API to get your current actor list. Take a look at Emby's documentation on how to generate an API key to insert into your settings file.
Run Get-EmbyActorThumbs.ps1 to get Emby actor name/id to compare with R18 spreadsheet and create a .csv spreadsheet specified in actor-csv-export-path. Make sure the spreadsheet you created in Get-R18ThumbUrls.ps1 is specified in r18-export-csv-path as it will be referenced in this script.
- After creating this spreadsheet, you can modify specific actor images manually
- You can re-run this script after importing new videos/actors into Emby to update your spreadsheet
Run Set-EmbyActorThumbs.ps1 to import actor images into Emby. It will import based on the spreadsheet specified in actor-csv-export-path. A .csv database will be created to record all changes made to your actor images specified in actor-csv-database-path.
- After your first write to Emby, your .csv database will be created
- Any changes made to your actor-csv-export-path file will be compared to the database in actor-csv-database-path and be written accordingly
Optional Run Sort-7mmtv.ps1 download cover and create a metadata file for uncensored and amateur JAV videos as listed on 7mmtv.tv. There are currently no configurable settings for this script besides the path 7mm-files-path. By default, the video will be moved to a new folder, have a cover image downloaded, and .nfo metadata file created. Review additional notes and how to run in the notes, and in the settings file comments above 7mm-files-path

If you are having trouble with any of these steps, review my script-run demos, or send me a message in my discord channel.

Media library setup

Emby/Jellyin

Set up a Movies media library, and select show advanced settings. Uncheck all settings that try to get movie metadata from the internet.

Running on Plex

Install the XBMCnfoMoviesImporter plugin on your Plex Media Server. Set up a Movies media library, and under the Advanced settings, set XBMCnfoMoviesImporter as the scanner agent. Leave all other settings default.

Notes

sort_jav.py

Matches your jav file and scrapes javlibrary for content
Renames and sorts your jav file to your specified settings

sort_jav.py will run a non-recursive search of video files located in the path specified in your settings file. Files located in folders will not be detected.

If you are trying to sort a video with multiple parts, follow any of the naming schemas below:

MIRD-151A, MIRD-151B
MIRD151A, MIRD-151B
MIRD-151[delimiter-between-multiple-videos]A, MIRD-151[delimiter-between-multiple-videos]B
MIRD-151[delimiter-between-multiple-videos]1[delimiter-between-multiple-videos], MIRD-151[delimiter-between-multiple-videos]2[delimiter-between-multiple-videos]

Set-JAVNfo.ps1

Matches all html .txt files created by sort_jav.py
Creates a .nfo metadata file that is readable by Media servers like Emby/Jellyfin

Set-JAVNfo.ps1 will run a recursive search of .txt files located in the path specified in your settings file. A .nfo metadata file will be generated with information such as title, release date, studio, genres, actors, actor thumb URL. Set prefer-r18-titles true to do an additional scrape of R18.com for better translated titles in your metadata.

Get-R18ThumbUrls.ps1

Scrapes R18 for all actor thumbnails and creates a csv database for actor name and their thumbnail URL.

Get-R18ThumbUrls.ps1 will take a while to run, as it needs to parse over 300 pages of R18 actors. I have provided recent (Aug-30-2019) scrape files created with this script for you to use if you do not want to create your own file. Use R18-Aug-30-2019-last-first.csv if you have name-order set to last, and vice versa. Specify this path in r18-export-csv-path.

Get-EmbyActorThumbs.ps1

Calls Emby/Jellyfin API to get a list of actors and their IDs
Matches names of both Emby actor list and R18 csv database created by Get-R18ThumbUrls
Creates a modifiable .csv spreadsheet to import into Emby

Get-EmbyActorThumbs.ps1 will parse the R18ThumbUrl .csv and match with your Emby/Jellyfin actor list generated by an API call. A new spreadsheet will be created for direct import. You can modify this spreadsheet by hand if you want to add/delete/update external actor images (such as from WAPdB) in Emby/Jellyfin. You can also run this script again after adding new videos/actors into Emby to update the spreadsheet with new actors.

Set-EmbyActorThumbs.ps1

Reads csv spreadsheet created by Get-EmbyActorThumbs.ps1 and imports matching thumbnails into Emby/Jellyfin using API
Creates an up-to-date csv database of all API calls made to Emby/Jellyfin

Set-EmbyActorThumbs.ps1 will read the csv created by Get-EmbyActorThumbs.ps1 and import new actor images to Emby while writing a separate csv database of all changes made. If the csv database already exists, it will be compared to your actor csv and only import new changes.

Sort-7mmtv.ps1

Scrapes and sorts all videos in path set in 7mm-files-path in the settings file

Sort-7mmtv.ps1 will scrape metadata, download the video cover, write a .nfo metadata file, and move videos to a new directory. It will scrape metadata information from the Japanese version of the site. Unfortunately the English version of the site has too many errors and discrepencies. I recommend you separate your uncensored/amateur JAV from your censored ones in Emby/Jellyfin as to better filter through them. This is a very basic script, with no settings options besides the path. The script will sort one video file every 10 seconds, as the script scrapes from Google, and you will be blocked if you scrape too much.

edit_covers.py

Finds all original thumbnail-size covers and creates an extra poster-size cover

edit_covers.py is deprecated past v1.4.5. Only use this script if you are using a very old version that did not have poster covers and you want to add them to your already scraped files.

settings_sort_jav.ini

Please note that where it gives you options to include delimiters, certain characters are disallowed by the OS. If you include them, they will be forcibly removed from your delimiter. For windows, that would be: / \ : * ? < > |

FAQ

My video isn't being sorted by sort_jav.py

Try renaming your file exactly how it appears on javlibrary. If it still doesn't work for some reason, follow the instructions below to manually sort the file.

"Could not find video on javlibrary so skipping..." for all files

This problem likely stems from the cfscrape/cloudscraper module failing. First ensure that both cfscrape AND Node.js are installed properly (restart computer after installing Node.js). If that still does not work, run pip install -U cfscrape to upgrade your cfscrape module.

The video was sorted by sort_jav.py, but it's the wrong video

Occasionally the results will be incorrect due to there being multiple videos with the same title. To manually sort the file, go to the correct javlibrary page, and save the page as an html. Also save the cover image. Rename the .html to a .txt, and rename both the cover and .txt the same as the video. Run Set-JAVNfo.ps1 and it will create a metadata file for you. To create a poster cover, you can either crop it yourself, or run the edit_covers.py script with the FULL directory path of your manually sorted files set in the settings path.

r18 and t28 videos aren't being sorted

For these special cases, rename the files to exactly how they appear on javlibrary. Anything extra in the video name will cause it not to sort. If you have a lot of them, check out my JAV renamer script.

Shell closes immediately after erroring

Try calling the scripts through a shell window rather than double-clicking to run. You will be able to diagnose what the issue is through the error messages.

Not all my actresses have thumbnail images

Unfortunately R18 and javlibrary use different English naming conventions for their actresses, so until I have a solution in place to either scrape Japanese, or do some manual switcharoos, we'll have to deal with it. You can also manually put in image urls into the .csv specified in actor-csv-export-path.

Sort_jav.py is erroring out when the filename is too long with actors set

As of now, I dont have a solution in place to handle hard caps on filename. If you have files that won't sort due to this error, turn off actor names for that file.
