Could anyone who has used this script in 2019 tell me if it was a success. I would like to know before spending the money for a subscription to Mazda Service Info.

Problem

I ran into some troubles running this script, and they ended up being due to PyPDF2 v3.x. After adding in some error message prinouts I came across this error:

Downloading started...
PdfFileReader is deprecated and was removed in PyPDF2 3.0.0. Use PdfReader instead.

Workaround

As a workaround I installed pypdf2 = "~=2.12" using pipenv to get up and running

Permanent Solution

Dependency Management

Introduce some form of dependency management to specify library versions and make getting up & running quick & easy. I would recommend a Pipfile, but having a requirements.txt should also work.

Library Upgrades

According to the PyPDF2 PyPI page the project has moved to pypdf shortly after upgrading to v3.0.0, which introduced some breaking changes. This script should probably switch to the pypdf package. I did find a migration guide, but it doesn't seem to cover going from v2.x -> v3.x.
