Hi there @wsc96! Thanks :)

I personally haven't felt the need to have health checking because of how simple the container is, it's basically just a script running, ending and then starting again. I wouldn't know what to check for a health indicator. What are you checking?

Health checking a process seems kinda pointless to me, S6 is just restarting them when they die. Like the main bash script runs yt-dlp and then waits the interval time and then dies and the S6 overlay starts it again.
Checking if the webserver is alive is an option, but not everyone is going to want to have the webui running and currently it is not on by default.
The only useful health check I can think of is checking if it has internet access and that the webserver is alive, if enabled. It would be great if there's a way to have yt-dlp test if the config is valid, but I don't think that's a thing and even then, doesn't really seem worth it.

Maybe I should add health check for internet access? or maybe someone have a smart idea for a useful health check? I'm open for it. :)

Changing to yt-dlp. #49
