PROBLEM trying to install the "yt tool".

[SME6]

What is your question?

When putting "go install github.com/danielmiessler/yt@latest" in terminal I received the message that "go cannot find GOROOT directory: /usr/local/go." Any idea on how I could fix this issue? I would really appreciate if you could give any help to pull this off. Many thanks! I tried this, this, and that.

did you install go ? im having some issue too but not that one.

[SME6]

Yes I did. Everything else worked perfect, but it seems that this specific file wasn't installed because go cannot find it in my directory

I had the same issue, I hadn't set up the Environmental Variables yet. I got a little ahead of myself.
check with echo $GOROOT it should be /usr/local/go on linux/mac. not sure about windows

good luck

Same issue here. I had to use sudo to get it to work. That should not be the case.

After installation, it will still not work if you follow the documentation. The docs need improvements. As others said, you must not use --transcript, and your URL must be in double quotes. That got it to work for me.

Meanwhile yt is integrated to fabric directly, so you could use fabric -y... -p....

I realized the YT integration was there very recently. I have been testing the direct integration for the last few nights, and it's working great! I've got some examples that could be used to improve the documentation.

If you like, please update in a PR READMe.md with the decsription and some examples.

I have the yt command set up in two ways:

1. I pasted the function into my .zshrc file, and it works successfully.

2. Alternatively, you can create a file, make it executable with chmod +x, and move it to /usr/local/bin.

!/bin/zsh

YouTube transcript command

yt() { local video_link="$1" fabric -y "$video_link" --transcript }
