  You need to install yt-dlp and jq to use this template:

  on macOS:
  
    $ brew install yt-dlp jq
    
  on Windows, you can download the yt-dlp.exe and jq.exe files and put them
  somewhere in your path.

  You need to define user function in Templater plugin settings named 
  "ytmeta" with the following command

  on linux:
    
    <PATH1>/yt-dlp -j "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=${id}" | <PATH2>/jq "${query}"

  on Windows:

    <PATH1>\yt-dlp -j "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=%id%" | <PATH12\jq "%query%"

  where:
    
    <PATH1> - Path to the yt-dlp executable
    <PATH2> - Path to the jq executable
