plugin.video.stash is an add-on for the Kodi home theater center software to incorporate Stash, an organizer for your porn. It thus allows you to view the media you have organized in Stash in Kodi.

Installation and upgrade of the plugin is managed using a custom Kodi repository.

1. Download the latest release of the repository

3. Open Kodi
4. Enable installation of addons from unknown sources by navigating to Setting/System/Add-ons and enable Unknown sources and confirm
5. Open the add-on browser by navigating to Add-ons and select the left icon in the top of the navigation / sidebar
6. Select Install from zip file
7. Browse to the folder containing the zip file and select the file, the repository is now installed
8. Return to the main menu of the Add-on Browser

Configuration

Location of Stash

By default the add-on connects to http://localhost:9999. In case you enabled https, are running Stash on a different system or port or are running in a subdirectory you must update the base URL in the settings.

1. In Kodi-s main menu navigate to Add-ons
2. Navigate to the Stash Kodi Plugin and open the context menu (either by right-clicking using a mouse, long pressing using a remote, or using the context menu key on a keyboard)
3. Select Settings
4. Change the Base URL to where your Stash installation is running

Authentication

In case you have enabled authentication on your Stash instance you are required to provide the API Key to the add-on.

1. First generate the API Key in Stash by navigating to Settings, Configuration, Authentication and making sure either API Key is filled in, or use the "reload" icon to generate a new API Key and save the configuration
2. Return to Kodi and open the add-ons settings by navigating to Add-ons from the main menu and selecting Settings from the context menu of the Stash Kodi Plugin
3. Fill in the API Key as shown in Stash in the API Key field.

Sadly you can't copy/paste the API Key into Kodi as Kodi doesn't have clipboard support. As an alternative you can edit the settings file manually.

1. Navigate to the Kodi userdata directory
2. Open file addon_data/plugin.video.stash/settings.xml
3. Change line <setting id="api_key" default="true" /> to <setting id="api_key">[your API Key]</setting>
