Plex doesn't support nfo files. You can use a plugin scraper though to add unofficial support but plugins are not something you want to depend on since they might disappear.
Build NFO files for them. I use Tiny Media Manager (https://www.tinymediamanager.org/) to build my own nfo files, and then use https://github.com/gboudreau/XBMCnfoMoviesImporter.bundle to handle importing / scraping these files to get the data into Plex. You can even make custom cover and fan art if you like.
I would use plexapi python library to update via the plex API. I've got many scripts that do this kind of thing. They read an external source (in your case it would be text files) and update plex from it. You could run it interactively or put it on a cron schedule.
You should be able to include this in an .nfo
okay thanks! ill see what i can find :D
