On est vendredi et vous avez pas envie de bosser, donc aidez-moi à faire marcher ce script python qui vérifie périodiquement la prochaine dispo d'un médecin sur doctolib.

Question geekage : que faut-il faire pour réussir à faire tourner ce script ? sur un PC windows ? Je sais lancer des .bat et .xlsm mais n'y connais rien à Python... Du coup je pars vraiment de zéro. Faut-il "installer" python? ou ranger les 4 fichiers proposés (.gitignore, LICENSE, README.md, doctolib.py) ? Où taper et comment exécuter le bout de code détaillé dans la section "Usage"?

YouTube-dl has been taken down

I see. According to the Web Archive, this website stopped working all the way in November 2023, and http://ytdl-org.github.io/youtube-dl/ now contains all the same content as the old one and is the new "official" website.

See elsewhere in the thread for details, but youtube-dl was restored by Github and is generally not considered to be in violation of the DMCA. You can see it on Github here: https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl
A copyright holder abused the DMCA process to take it down the first time.

The best way is to download the source from github, run `make`, and copy the the file to $HOME/bin . There hasn't been a release for about a year now and the files on the distro repos are even older (I think).
Also YouTube has been doing some changes lately on the the player and a lot of the tools fail to download audio or video.
For example, in the last couple of weeks there have been some issues with a redirect to a 'consent page' : https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl/issues/32499
