Im getting an error in line 9
show_name = sys.argv[1]
IndexError: list index out of range
Any help would be appreciated

@Jborn4christ did you copy the Arguments into the Notification > Script > Script Arguments?
Small improvement. No need to check the shows twice.
https://gist.github.com/blacktwin/a327055da54d7feb3eef10e64a8b661a#file-notify_on_added-py-L45-L52
# Join email addresses
to = [u['email'] for u in users if p.show_name in u['shows']]
if not to:
print 'Kill script now show_name is not in lists'
return
I'm trying to test this at the command line (outside of plexpy) - when it gets to line 80 it hits the 'else' clause so no email is sent. I'm calling the script with:
./notify_on_added.py -sn 'Seinfeld'
and Seinfeld is in my list of shows (line 36)
Is my understanding off on how to run this? How does the script know if a show was just added? (is it something sent as an argument by the 'recently added' part of plexpy?

@oliver-cfc in order test like that you need to include all the arguments listed in line 8. Sorry I forgot the instructions for PlexPy. I'll add them when I get to a PC. PlexPy can be set to trigger a custom script like this whenever something is added, watched, paused, started, stopped, etc.
