23 darktable is a digital photography workflow application for Linux, Mac
24 OS X and several other Unices. It's described further in darktable(1).
25
26 darktable-cli is a command line variant to be used to export images
27 given the raw file and the accompanying xmp file.
28
30 The user needs to supply an input filename and an output filename. All
31 other parameters are optional.
32
33 <input file>
34 The name of the input file to export.
35
36 <xmp file>
37 The optional name of an XMP sidecar file containing the history
38 stack data to be applied during export. If this option is not
39 given darktable will search for an XMP file that belongs to the
40 given input file.
41
42 <output file>
43 The name of the output file. darktable derives the export file
44 format from the file extension. You can also use all the variables
45 available in darktable's export module in the output filename.
46
47 --width <max width>
48 This optional parameter allows one to limit the width of the
49 exported image to that number of pixels.
50
51 --height <max height>
52 This optional parameter allows one to limit the height of the
53 exported image to that number of pixels.
54
55 --bpp <bpp>
56 An optional parameter to define the bit depth of the exported
57 image; allowed values depend on the file format. Currently this
58 option is not yet functional. If you need to define the bit depth
59 you need to use the following workaround:
60
61 --core --conf plugins/imageio/format/<FORMAT>/bpp=<VALUE>
62
63 where FORMAT is the name of the selected output format, for example
64 png.
65
66 --hq <0|1|true|false>
67 A flag that defines whether to use high quality resampling during
68 export. Defaults to true.
69
70 --upscale <0|1|true|false>
71 A flag that defines whether to allow upscaling during export.
72 Defaults to false.
73
74 --style <style name>
75 Specify the name of a style to be applied during export. If a
76 style is specified, the path to the darktable configuration
77 directory must also be specified (i.e. --core --configdir
78 ~/.config/darktable). Defaults to no style specified.
79
80 --overwrite
81 The specified style overwrites the history stack instead of being
82 appended to it.
83
84 --verbose
85 Enables verbose output.
86
87 --core <darktable options>
88 All command line parameters following --core are passed to the
89 darktable core and handled as standard parameters. See
90 darktable(1) for a detailed description of the options.
