I wrote an auto install script based on your instructions

Thought I would share it. Seems to work great for me.

You just create the script...

#!/usr/bin/env bash

clear

# youTube_ads_4_pi-hole-installer.sh

random_dir="$(mktemp -d)"
gravity="$(find /etc/ -type f -name 'gravity.db')"
yt_adlist="${random_dir}/yt-adlist.txt"
c1='youTube_ads_4_pi-hole -- github.com/kboghdady/youTube_ads_4_pi-hole'

#
# REMOVE LEFTOVER FOLDERS FROM PREVIOUS ATTEMPTS/RUNS
#

if [ -d 'youTube_ads_4_pi-hole' ]; then
    rm -fr 'youTube_ads_4_pi-hole'
fi

#
# GIT CLONE THE REPO
#

git clone 'https://github.com/kboghdady/youTube_ads_4_pi-hole.git'
cd 'youTube_ads_4_pi-hole' || exit 1

#
# CHANGE A VARIABLE IN THE SCRIPT
#

sed -i 's/repoDir=\$(pwd)/repoDir="\${PWD}"/g' 'youtube.sh'

#
# MAKE THE SCRIPT EXECUTABLE
#

chmod a+x 'youtube.sh'

#
# ADD CRONTAB ENTRY TO AUTO-UPDATE THE SCRIPT
#

is_in_cron="${PWD}/youtube.sh"
cron_entry=$(crontab -l 2>&1) || exit
new_cron_entry="0 */1 * * * ${PWD}/youtube.sh 2>&1"

if [[ "${cron_entry}" != *"${is_in_cron}"* ]]; then
  printf '%s\n' "${cron_entry}" "${new_cron_entry}" | crontab -
fi

#
# ADD URL TO PIHOLE'S ADLISTS
#

echo 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kboghdady/youTube_ads_4_pi-hole/master/youtubelist.txt' > "${yt_adlist}"
cat < "${yt_adlist}" | xargs -I{} sqlite3 "${gravity}" 2>/dev/null \
    "INSERT OR IGNORE INTO adlist (address, comment) VALUES ('{}',\"${c1}\")"

#
# UPDATE PIHOLE'S GRAVITY AND RESTARTDNS
#

pihole -g
pihole restartdns

#
# DELETE THE RANDOM TMP DIRECTORY
#

rm -fr "${random_dir}"

Then you run these commands...

sudo chmod a+x youTube_ads_4_pi-hole-installer.sh
sudo bash youTube_ads_4_pi-hole-installer.sh

kboghdady / youTube_ads_4_pi-hole
