I want to print URL for the subtitle file, so after reading README I tried this:

youtube-dl --get-url --sub-format "srt" "http://example.com"

however, this does not work and will only print the video URL. I able to see part of the subtitle URL by doing this:

youtube-dl --skip-download --print-traffic --write-sub --sub-format "srt" "http://example.com"

but that will also download the subtitles and generates alot of ouput. I only want a single line with the full URL.

What is the equivalent of this:

youtube-dl --get-url "http://example.com"

just for printing the subtitle URL?

No such equivalent. Use --dump-json.
