sqlite is a required dependency. If it is not available on the system,
it can be compiled and linked by enabling
the bundled_sqlite feature when building with cargo:
cargo build --features bundled_sqlite
```bash cargo install ytsub
cargo install ytsub --features bundled_sqlite ```
``` USAGE: ytsub [OPTIONS]
OPTIONS:
-d, --database-path
Default directory of the configuration files is ~/.config/ytsub.
