Parse a file, using either a DFDL schema or a saved parser.
Usage
Note that the -P or --parser feature is not yet implemented (April 2013)
daffodil parse (-s <schema>... [-r [{<namespace>}]<root>] [-p <path>] | -P <parser>) [-D[{namespace}]<variable>=<value>...] [-T<tunable>=<value>] [-o <output>] [-V [mode]] [-c <file>] [infile]...
| Long | Short | Arguments | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
--schema | -s | <schema> | The annotated DFDL schema to use to create the parser. This option may be supplied multiple times for multi-schema support. This option cannot be used with the --parser option. |
--root | -r | [{<namespace>}]<root> | The root element of the DFDL schema to use. This must be one of the top-level elements of the schema defined with --schema. This requires the --schema option to be defined. If not supplied, the first element of the first schema defined with --schema is used. A namespace may be specified by prefixing it with {namespace}. |
--path | -p | <path> | The path to the node from the root element to create the parser from. |
--parser | -P | <parser> | Use a previously saved parser, created using the save-parser subcommand. This option cannot be used with the --schema option. |
-D | [{<namespace>}]<variable>=<value> | Variables to be used when parsing. The variable can be prefixed with {namespace} to define which namespace the variable belongs in, for example:
| |
-T | <tunable>=<value> | Modify Daffodil configuration options to change parsing behavior. See Configuration File#Tunable Parameters for the list of tunable parameters. | |
--output | <output> | Write output to a give file. If the option is not given or is -, output is written to standard out. | |
--validate | -V | [mode] | The validation mode. 'on', 'limited' or 'off'. If 'mode' is not provided, defaults to 'on'. If --validate is not provided, defaults to 'off'. |
--config | -c | <file> | XML file containing configuration items, such as external variables or Daffodil tunables. See Configuration File for details on the file format. |
[infile] | Input file to parse. If not specified, or is a value of -, reads from standard in. In supplied, this must be the last option on the command line. | ||
--version | Display the version of Daffodil. | ||
--help | Display help message. |
...
Note that the Unparse subcommand is not currently implemented (April 2013)implemented as of 0.15.0.
daffodil unparse (-s <schema>... [-r [{<namespace>}]<root>] [-p <path>] | -P <parser>) [-D[{<namespace>}]<variable>=<value>...] [-T<tunable>=<value>] [-o <output>] [-V [mode]] [-c <file>] [infile]...
Create a save a parser that can be reused for parsing and unparsing.
Usage
...
daffodil save-parser -s <schema>... [-r <root> [-n <namespace>]] [-p <path>] [-o <output>] [outfile]
