DataExtractor

A CLI that extracts fields you specify from any file you give.

Install

Go to the releases and download any version you want in accordance to your machine.

Support

For now, only JSON and YAML files are supported

Usage

datex [file] [flags]

• [file] - pass a file full path directly or just type a filename and the program will try to find it from the current dir you are in.
• [flags] (optional)
  • i, --indent [int] - Specify the indent of a resulting file, positive integers are expected, default is 4

Here are the examples of running the program:

• datex C:\Users\diddy\Documents\DataExtractor\config.yml -i 8
• datex config.yml

The resulting file with all extracted data will be placed at the current directory you are, with extracted_ prepended to the file's name you passed. So you get something like extracted_config.yaml

Type datex -h to see all available options and basic program info.
