In order to run it you need java installed:

Java: https://www.java.com/en/download/

For binaries: https://sourceforge.net/projects/youtubelivestreamer/files/YoutubeLiveStreamer.zip/download

Upon being run for the first time it will create a text file 'channels.txt'. Here you will need to add channelIDs of the youtube channel you want to check, ie: Ice Poseidon's channel is : https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCv9Edl_WbtbPeURPtFDo-uA, we only need: UCv9Edl_WbtbPeURPtFDo-uA

Seperate each channel with a new line.

It will then ask you for a one time authorization to youtube, which is required to make video api requests.
