External JavaScript for yt-dlp supporting many runtimes

In the yt-dlp repository, install the python package, either directly or from url:

pip install git+https://github.com/yt-dlp/ejs@main

While this project does pin its dependencies, it does not use lockfiles or enforce a particular package manager. You may install dependencies using any compatible package manager. If you notice differences between different runtimes builds please open an issue here.

To build the Python package you need a PEP518 compatible builder. The build hook will automatically invoke deno, bun or node as required.

Alternatively, to only build the JavaScript files you can run the bundle script manually.

First, to download the player files, run src/yt/solver/test/download.ts.

After running that once, use any of deno test, bun test or node --test.
